December 10, 2025Great Show!
We had the pleasure of hiring Daniel and Erin for our corporate Christmas party, and they were absolutely fantastic! Everyone truly enjoyed their performance—they were professional, punctual, and incredibly talented. Their repertoire of bossa nova and Christmas music created the perfect festive atmosphere. We will definitely hire them again in the future!

September 4, 2025Beautiful music - fantastic experience
We hired the duo to play guitar and flute/saxophone for our wedding ceremony and cocktail reception. They were responsive and thoughtful as we discussed songs to be played while we each walked down the aisle and when we walked down the aisle after the ceremony together. They were willing to learn new songs, and made great suggestions to improve the arrangements of one of the songs. Having beautiful live music to welcome our guests, during our ceremony, and during the cocktail reception afterwards made the day even more special. Daniel and Erin arrived early to set up, and everything ran smoothly- they were professional and easy to work with. I wholeheartedly recommend hiring the duo for weddings and other special events. I would book them again myself.
