Stop looking … she is the one!!!

We had a backyard family Christmas party, and the star of the show was this wonderful singer. The tunes were perfect, and she read the audience to deliver a truly remarkable performance. She was spot on with song selection, had audience interaction, and had an incredibly positive attitude to go along with everything. It was a win-win for our family, and we would definitely have her back again.

Serafia is the best

We were honored to have Serafia and her accompanying keys player Pablo perform at our annual holiday party and they were absolutely incredible! Her voice, vibe, and energy are all so singularly stunning! If you are even thinking about hiring her for an event, stop thinking and start booking! Can’t wait to have her back again!

Best performer you can book for your event!

Serafia was exactly the type of performance and style I was looking for. I’m so happy I happened to stumble on her info from this app. I had a 40th birthday Prom theme and she took the songs I requested and made them her own. She brought a wonderful guitarist and they made my night super special with the performance! She has such a great energy and the guests enjoyed her music! After booking her for my party, I started following some of her past events and history through social media. She has unique story to tell about how she grew up and some of the challenges along the way. She has really become a great artist and I can’t wait to see what things she does in the future! I told my boyfriend, Anytime I have another event in the future we are booking her again. We will make up an event if we need to, she was that fantastic!

Beautiful, soulful voice

Serafia and her guitarist were able to perform for my friend, who is disabled and bedridden, on her birthday at her apartment, and it was a beautiful experience. Serafia was able to perform the day-of, which I really appreciated, and has a beautiful, soulful voice that brought my friend to tears. Her genuine depth of feeling and soulfulness shines through in her vocals, and she also has a very warm and positive energy. Would highly recommend booking Serafia! Thank you again!
