Response from Scott Paeth:
Thanks Mark! I had a great time. Let's do it again some time soon!
Scott was an amazing addition to my band for a holiday show I did.
He came to rehearsal prepared and performance ready. Highly recommended.
It was a pleasure to have him on my show. He did over and above what I asked for. Very humble and professional.
I booked Scott for a drum part for a cover that I did and it was an immense pleasure working with him. He was punctual, came well-prepared, and nailed his part with just a few takes. I had a ton of fun collaborating with him and will definitely be in correspondence with him for any future drumming parts that I might need.
Scott was awesome! Everyone loved his performance. Scott was professional, punctual, and easy to work with.
Amazing experience, Scott is great to work with!
I was very pleased with Scott's performance. He did his homework on our song list, true professional. Easy to work with, on time for the event. Plays all out.
Good communication. Showed up and played for over an hour.
