Private Party•Reviewed on July 5, 2013•From Jefferson, NH
Alan was able to take a very special request - to learn "Old Toy Trains" by Roger Miller, and play it as a surprise for my children at Santa's Village in New Hampshire. He could not have been more accommodating, learning a little-known song on very short notice, and letting our family have a very special memory. Now, if only I could sing.
Corporate Function•Reviewed on July 5, 2013•From South Portland, ME
We hired Alan for a BBQ event that we put on for the clients of our Financial Advising Firm. Alan was very helpful leading up to the event and was willing to accommodate any of our special requests. It ended up raining on the day of the event so we had to make the last minute change to move it inside, and Alan was very willing to accommodate the change even though he had already set up outside. Everyone enjoyed Alan's music and many clients commented on how talented he was. He also played at the perfect volume throughout the event, allowing our guests to both socialize and enjoy his music. We would definitely hire Alan again for any future events.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on October 19, 2012•From Newry, ME
Being the bride I was not able to listen to much of Alan's performance because I was the last to arrive at the ceremony, however, I received many compliments from my guest on how talented Alan was and how enjoyable it was to listen to him play. Alan was also wonderful throughout the whole planning process offering many suggestions on different pieces we could use during the ceremony and he promptly answered my many questions. I HIGHLY recommend Alan for your upcoming event!
Wedding•Reviewed on September 23, 2012•From Old Orchard Beach, ME
From the moment we spoke to Alan, we knew he was the right person to play at our wedding! We talked to him once about what we wanted and he immediately began forwarding us the perfect songs. Alan is accommodating, very responsive, and he communicated with us on a regular basis to build our play-list. He is incredibly talented. We requested a wide range of music, classical to modern and everything in between, and he played it all beautifully. We enjoyed his music so much that we actually asked him to stay for an extra hour. We couldn't have been any happier with our experience with Alan. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a kind and talented guitarist.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 18, 2012•From Auburn, ME
Alan was terrific in every way. He was very professional, personable and a fabulous musician. Alan played a wonderful selection that was a perfect fit for the party: the guests raved about it and I think it made a positive difference in the overall memorability of the party. I will refer Alan to everyone I know and will definitely book him in the future.
Festival•Reviewed on March 18, 2012•From Searsport, ME
Alan was very talented, & came dressed for the occasion, donning a green coat & St.Patricks day themed tie- which was nice. He was very friendly. A little socially awkward, but extremely talented, we thought. His professionalism & talent really added a nice ambiance to our event. He may have been a little surprised that a couple of other people showed up unannounced to play their fiddles (at first), but he was willing to share the stage w/them, & did not make a fuss about how he was the one that was hired. He was very friendly. He was no bother at all, really. We would like to have him back again if he is available! We appreciated his service. Made the event special!
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 24, 2011•From Bar Harbor, ME
Alan was a pleasure to work with. He was extremely professional and accommodating, and in my opinion went well above and beyond what we were paying him for. He played for our wedding reception in a big house in Maine and the atmosphere was perfect. Thanks Alan!
Commitment Ceremony•Reviewed on July 4, 2011•From Bar Harbor, ME
Alan, his son, and daughter-in-law are beautifully tallanted. They were so personable and friendly, that not only were we glad we hired them, but we were also glad that they were guests at our special event. We requested several songs that they learned for us. We let Alan decide on the order if the songs and he added extra classical guitar music that we were extremely pleased with. They gave us a beautiful private concert on a beach and went above and beyond to make our wedding perfect. We definitely recommend Alan because his gutar playing is beautiful, his professionalism is great, and he is fun to work with.
