I booked Hound for a micro wedding and he was fantastic! He went over and beyond to learn and perform some special requests to his professional set-up to his superb interaction skills with all guests…I would hire him again and again and recommend anyone to do so, also! Such a professional!

September 2, 2023The best funeral hymns!
The Hound Brown went out of his way to provide beautiful music for my Dad’s service. He was able to round up another wonderful studio musician on guitar and agreed to work with a piano musician, Cody Campbell, that I found whom he’d never met before. They were all so professional, dressed appropriately, arrived early to practice, and made brilliant renditions of three favorite hymns! It could not have been better. They were all so kind and personable too.

June 18, 2023Such an amazing voice and talent!
Hound Brown was incredibly responsive and helpful with planning this event. He got back me quickly every time! He arrived early and set up - his gear all looked so professional in our Brentwood offices.
Along with the cover music we requested he played some of his own songs that were REALLY good! He is very talented. Some people just really GET music and Hound is one of those people!
A few of the girls in the audience had had a few drinks and were shouting "Play Beyoncé" and he handled that situation like a true gentleman :) I HIGHLY recommend the Hound Brown for your next event!!
Hired as: Acoustic Band, Country Singer, Industry Expert, Singer/Songwriter, Singing Guitarist
