FuneralReviewed on July 22, 2018From Greensburg, PA

I was able to find this wonderful harpist at the last minute to play at the funeral of a beloved cousin. The death was unexpected and gigmaster connected me Marissa Knaub Avon who was able to play with a day & 1/2 notice. She was amazing and brought grace, beauty and healing to my family. Those in attendance report that her presence & performance were both beautiful and perfect. I am in NYC & the funeral home is outside of Pittsburgh, where I was unable to attend. Marissa responded immediately, was warm and consoling, was able to travel and to connect me with my family. I cannot day enough wonderful things about Marissa’s warmth, spirit and talent. THANK YOU!!!

Marissa helped our family out at the last minute when we needed music for the reception after our loved one's funeral. It added a beautiful environment of music and good energy. Our mother would have definitely appreciated it.
