Wedding•Reviewed on March 9, 2019•From New York City, NY

Kurt played at our wedding in January, and he was amazing! He’s an extremely talented musician, both vocally and as a guitarist. He did a fantastic job with the songs we included in our ceremony. And, his selection of songs for the rest of our event was perfect for our crowd. Our guests loved him as much as we did—so much so that we asked him to stay beyond our original plan of just cocktails to all through dinner. Kurt is super talented, professional, and just a really nice person on top of it. We can’t recommend him enough. He’s awesome!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 20, 2018•From Manhattan, NY

Kurt was just amazing! Aside from his talent, he was so accommodating to our requests and extremely pleasant to work with. Many of my friends were requesting his card after our event after hearing him all afternoon. We had so many guests who gave great feedback in regards to the music. Kurt made our special day that much more special. Thank you!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on November 19, 2018•From West Orange, NJ

Kurt was so wonderful to work with. The ease of booking was awesome. He was early and well-prepared and dressed really nice. We had two rooms that were connected and he went from one room to another as needed making the flow of the party more enjoyable. I can't say enough how wonderfully talented he is and so professional. I would highly recommend Kurt for any function. I will definitely call him again.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 31, 2018•From Brooklyn, NY

Kurt was a dream to work with, he accommodated our every need and went above and beyond on the day. His voice is incredible, such a talent! If you're looking for a chill, talented and amazing acoustic guitarist than this is your man... highly recommend. Our long regret is we didn't book him for longer on the day.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 18, 2018•From New York City, NY

We booked Kurt for a wedding ceremony in the Ladies Pavilion at Central Park after watching his videos on Gig masters. During the run up to the wedding he kept on touch and accommodated the music requests we had. He also accommodated a special request to have the bride and grooms nephew sing with him after the ceremony as a special surprise. He turned up on time to the venue and played beautifully during the ceremony and afterwards. We couldn't reccomend him highly enough.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 1, 2018•From Yonkers, NY

Kurt was very professional! I am very happy that I hired his service to sing and play at my party. He was on time and very accommodating to my guests. He even offered to help us to move some of the tables because it started to drizzle at the end of my party. I will definetely recommend and hire him again if I need someone to entertain my guests again. I personally told him that! Thank you Kurt!

Engagement Party•Reviewed on July 15, 2018•From Staten Island, NY

Kurt was wonderful beginning to end. He was responsive in the months leading to my event and answered every email promptly. His talent was the perfect addition to the event as well! He arrived early and continued providing the party with music right until the very end. Every song sounded perfect and we received many compliments, a few even asking for his business card! We would definitely recommend Kurt and hire him for another gig!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on July 3, 2018•From Monmouth Beach, NJ

We hired Kurt to play at our wedding-before our ceremony, during our cocktail hour and to play our first dance song and we absolutely LOVED him! We had guests coming up to us during the cocktail hour raving about him and how amazing his voice was. Not only is he an incredible and talented performer, he was also great to work with. We expressed the vibe we were going for and Kurt delivered, even learning a new song for our first dance. He was the perfect added touch for our Jersey Shore wedding and we will definitely be working with him again.

Bar Mitzvah•Reviewed on June 18, 2018•From New York City, NY

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on June 5, 2018•From New Canaan, CT

Kurt's music is phenomenal. He has real talent. His ability to carry a party with his repertoire continues to impress me. We've booked Kurt twice and have nothing but raving reviews for him. We gave no instruction on what to play, allowing him to read the party and the mood. He blended classic rock, folk and alternative music seamlessly. Just as important is his communication style and his professionalism. From booking to performance, he was easy to reach, schedule and confirm with. He showed up early and stayed late. We felt well taken care of at each moment. I highly recommend booking Kurt for your next event.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on May 22, 2018•From Spring Lake, NJ

Kurt was absolutely incredible. I would highly recommend Kurt to anyone who is looking for an extremely talented musician. Kurt played our cocktail hour at our wedding, and all of our guests raved about how phenomenal he was. He was extremely professional, showed up early, and even learned and played songs we requested. I will absolutely use Kurt again in the future at any events I am planning on having. Thanks again!!
