March 13, 2026Surprise Proposal
Skyler did a phenomenal job performing for this special surprise moment, he was willing to be flexible with the time I needed him to show up, he provided another vocalist to come and help execute a beautiful cover of this modern love by bloc party for my fiance and I, and he even got a bouquet to give to my fiancé afterwards. He is incredibly professional and goes the extra mile to make the moment even more beautiful.

September 15, 2025Solo guitarist
Skyler played at my dad's memorial service. Although it was a somber day, Skyler really brought out the emotion everyone was feeling with his selection of music and artistic craft.
Since then, I've had the privilege to see him with his band. This guy is destined for stardom. Get him while you can!

January 24, 2025Solo guitarist - really great
Skyler played solo guitar at my art show and gallery opening. His music set the mood for a great night and it was very special to have live music. He was professional, courteous, on time and easy to work with. The music was amazing! I got a lot of positive feedback from the 60 or more in attendance at the event.

What to expect
