Review by Tom & Debbie S.

Club Event•Reviewed on December 6, 2008•From Newtown, PA

Scott was awesome. His guitar-playing and song repertoire are amazing and cover about anything you can think of. We had Scott perform at my 50th birthday party at our house and he handled the ebb and flow of the evening without a hitch. He handled all requests, softened his songs when needed, and performed when he had an audience. Not only would I recommend him to friends, I will use him again for my wife's 50th. What a find!

Scott was a wonderful part of the party. His music was perfect for our group and he knew how to accommodate everyone at the party. I highly recommend him and look forward to using him again at our next party.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 15, 2008•From Schenectady, NY

Scott was amazing, he played for my wedding and did everything perfectly. He played exactly what I wanted and everyone thought he was great. He also played at our cocktail hour and entertained all of our guests. He has accomodated us every step of the way in our long planning of our wedding and he travled a long way to come and make our day extra special. He is extremely talented and professional and it's nice to know you can trust people to make a special day like this come together. Thanks so much!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on November 9, 2008•From New York City, NY

Long after the music ended, our guests were still talking about the magnificent experience created by Scott Samuels. Scott has a natural sense of the appropriate musical accompaniment to make a great event into an exceptional event. He integrated himself into mood of the day by drawing from his vast and diverse selection of music. Scott is an acoustic guitar master; he is very pleasant and accomodating. From Hellen and Harvey Osgood, New York, NY.

Church Service•Reviewed on October 24, 2008•From Wyckoff, NJ

Not only was Scott talented and professional, but he was accommodating and more than a pleasure to deal with on a personal level. His music and song selections were noticed by all our guests at the church and cocktail hour. We would highly recommend him to any of our friends and family and when the next occasion warrants it, would not hesitate to bring him back for an encore. Gratefully submitted by the Klemm Family.

Bridal Shower•Reviewed on April 17, 2023•From Riverton, NJ

Scott was on time, smiling and ready to play. His equipment was in working condition and the sound was perfect. He wasn’t too loud or too soft. Wide range of tunes. Took many requests. Would likely hire again.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 18, 2008•From Wayne, NJ

Scott performed at my husband's 40th birthday party. He was nothing less than fantastic! Everyone was commenting on how talented he was and how great he sounded. He was professional, courteous and very, very nice. He even let my husband perform a song with him which was awesome. I can't recommend him enough and would love to have him perform at any future event I may have. Bridget McNeill Oak Ridge, NJ

Christening•Reviewed on October 12, 2008•From Rockville Centre, NY

We needed music to entertain our family and friends to celebrate our new five month old daughter Olivia's Baptism / Christening Party at our home. Scott Samuels proved to be a hit with audiences of all ages from our young nephews and nieces, to our parents, to our friends with his renditions of music spanning from the 60's to today! Towards the end of the evening, Scott moved near Olivia and serenaded her with "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" which plays on her mobile attached to her crib. It is our absolute pleasure to personally recommend the very talented and thoughtful Scott Samuels for your Music needs! Rock On Scott!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2008•From Long Island, NY

Scott performed at my wedding during my ceremony and my cocktail hour. He has created magical moments that will forever be embedded in my mind when I think back to the most important moment of my life. He learned a song that was very important to my Husband and me. As my husband and I walked into our cocktail hour he began to play it. He ochestrted a moment that I will never forget. My guest are still talking about how fantastic he was. Up to the event he was in constant contact with me and was so attentive to all the details. He truly cared about my event. I will be using him for events in the future and referring him to all my friends. Perfect 10!!!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 4, 2008•From New York City, NY

We had previously hired Scott to play at our wedding and when we decided to have another wedding party we knew we wanted him to play. He was very accomodating to our short notice request and arrived with a big smile. He was wonderful about song requests and his laid back personality made him a joy to work with.

Picnic•Reviewed on September 27, 2008•From Hackettstown, NJ

This is the second year that Scott has handled this event for us and again was the hit of the party. An excellent performer, Scott impressed everyone there and the sing-a-long at the end of the night was a unexpected surprise that capped off a wonderful day. Awesome. Can't wait til next year.

Celebration•Reviewed on September 14, 2008•From Southampton, NY

My husband and I hired Scott Samuels for our daughter's Christening reception. We were so pleased with Scott. He was polite, fun, talented, professional and added something very special to our party. He took requests and let a few of us sing with him. He knew when to play soft music and when to liven the party by playing music we could to dance to. I would recommend him to a friend and I hope to hire him again.

Private Party•Reviewed on September 13, 2008•From Staten Island, NY

Scott was a great addition to my engagement party, he never stopped playing. He was professional and accommodating, he learned two additional songs just for our party. He is talented and my guests enjoyed him very much. I would recommend him for anyone who wants a variety of good music and is not looking for anything too crazy. Thanks Scott!! P.S. I briefly mentioned to him that I liked a certain song during our phone conversations and he ended up playing it at the most perfect time!!

Community Event•Reviewed on September 7, 2008•From Tenafly, NJ

As a fellow musician, I could easily discern that he was a consumate professional and really knew how to handle a crowd. His encylclopediec knowledge of music was fascinating and refreshing compared to other musicians I have seen before.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 6, 2008•From South Salem, NY

Scott Samuels was a major contributor to the success of my husband's surprise 60th birthday party!!! From my initial contact to last evening's goodbye, Scott could not have been more pleasurable to work with for this or any event. Guests ranged in age from 19 to 77 and everyone sang his praise, as well as sang along with him. I wished I had more time to hear him sing. I would definitely recommend Scott because of his talent and professionalism.

Wedding•Reviewed on September 6, 2008•From Brooklyn, NY

We could not have asked for a better experience working with Scott Samuels. His skill, personality and professionalism were greatly appreciated. He played music for our wedding ceremony and the cocktail hour of our reception and we could not have asked for anything more. We would recommend him highly for any event and specifically for those wanting to add something special to their wedding ceremony or cocktail hour with some great live music.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 31, 2008•From Long Island City, NY

Scott Samuels made my wedding as intimate as it can be. He played his guitar and sang very well. He even took special requests that was not on his list of songs. I highly recommend him, you will not be disappointed. Thank you Scott and hope to do business with you again.

Wedding•Reviewed on August 8, 2008•From Brookfield, CT

We hired Scott for our wedding day on August 8th of this year. He played during our ceromony and for cocktail hour and everything went great. We had more guest compliment us on Scotts playing than any one aspect of our wedding. Scott knew every song we asked him to play, and played them to perfection. I would highly recomend Scott for any occasion. Thanks again Scott!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 26, 2008•From Monmouth Beach, NJ

Scott was a wonderful addition to our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. He traveled all the way from Manhattan and was timely, professional, and accommodating with the sound and overall musical feel that we were looking for. It was great to have someone who was willing to play instrumental versions of some more modern songs for our wedding ceremony. He is a great asset to any gathering!
