May 18, 2026The absolute wonderful singer I seen in person
As you know, I went online through Gigsalad, and hired Dominique Toney. I reviewed other singers profiles and saw live performances, but I just wasn’t interested until I saw Ms. Toney. We talked, I informed her this is for my Mom funeral services and here are the four songs. Ms. Toney, basically took charge of the song arrangements and made sure each song was sung at the appropriate time.
Ms. Toney, arrived before any family members. I was the first from the family to arrive and greet her. She dressed amazingly so appropriate for the moment; The entire family was blessed by Ms Toney’s professionalism, kindness, diligence and most of all her melodious voice…THE WOMAN CAN SING!!!
This was the first, however no means will be the last we hear from Ms. Toney. If anyone is in need of a gospel singer she is your person. Highly recommended from a verified customer.
Thank you Dominique!!!
