Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 20, 2016•From Garnet Valley, PA

Scott has a tremendous repertoire of music that he can play on his guitar which was very appealing to guests of all ages. Scott had the high school girls in a sing a long which was surprising and fabulous! Highly recommend Scott for parties that include all age groups.

Wedding•Reviewed on June 5, 2016•From Philadelphia, PA

My husband and I hired Scott to play our wedding 2 weeks ago and he was absolutely fantastic. The scheduling process was incredibly easy and he was even able to learn and flawlessly play a song we requested for our first-dance. All night, guests were raving about how great he was. Scott went with the mood of the crowd and the moment, even playing songs like "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" when all of the ladies were getting photos together, and as many Prince songs as he could at my husband's request. Scott's music was beyond perfect and he was such a professional musician to boot. Simply put, Scott perfected our wedding day!

Private Party•Reviewed on February 5, 2016•From Colts Neck, NJ

Scott was a pleasure to work with. He was responsive and completely accommodating with the music we wanted for our birthday party. Scott was punctual and totally pleasant. He is extremely talented and our guests all commented on this and enjoyed his music! I would recommend Scott to friends, for sure!

Private Party•Reviewed on January 28, 2016•From Malvern, PA

Scott was professional, accommodating and talented. He had a great selection of music. Our guests didn't want him to leave. In fact, they asked when he was coming back! We were greatly satisfied.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 9, 2015•From New Castle, DE

We were very happy with Scott, who performed during both our wedding and at the reception afterwards. Scott arrived well ahead of time, played beautifully, and with minimal guidance during our planning did a great job in filling out a playlist, encouraged requests, and just did a great job in general. Scott was very professional, and was a thorough communicator during the planning process. Extremely flexible throughout and easy to work with. If you want someone who will be professional, make sure your guests have a great time, set the proper musical background, and is also very musically talented, look no further. I really can't offer any constructive criticism.

Hotel Event•Reviewed on October 25, 2015•From New York City, NY

Scott was the perfect touch to our recent brunch reception. His song selection was well-received and he accommodated many requests. Prior to the event, Scott was very prompt with information. A true professional! We will definitely reach out to Scott for future events in New York City.

Club Event•Reviewed on September 7, 2015•From Rye, NY

We had a party on the beach with close friends and acquaintances and Scott helped break the ice, which was one of the key reasons we were looking for a musician. We had ages 5-85 all at one party, and Scott was able to play music that everyone enjoyed and related to. We originally booked Scott from 5-7, but we got off to a late start and he graciously said that he would start at 5:30 and play to 7:30 with no extra charge -- and then he played until 8! I would recommend him for any type of gathering where there are from 2-60 guests. And I bet he could amp it up and even master a bigger crowd. Thank you, Scott!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on August 24, 2015•From Sewell, NJ

Scott helped make our party a smashing success! He is truly a talented musician and I would love to hear him play again. Scott only took one short break in five plus hours. I am very glad I picked Scott!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 18, 2015•From Holicong, PA

Scott was a wonderful addition to our wedding. In the run-up to the wedding, he was very helpful and professional in guiding us to select the right music for our ceremony and cocktail hour. He also accommodated our special request to back our best man for our first dance, even coming early on our wedding day to practice! He is a talented guitarist with a great voice, and really added to the chill vibe at our cocktail hour. That said, he by no means took over our event; instead, he seamlessly blended right in. We had lots of compliments on his performance from our friends and family. We can't recommend Scott more!

Memorial Service•Reviewed on August 10, 2015•From Bound Brook, NJ

"Scott Samuels is an excellent musician. He was very professional in everything he did for us, from contacting me beforehand and going over everything in detail. He was actually early to the memorial service for my dad, and also played a little bit past the scheduled time. Scott was a nice addition. I would recommend him for your next event." --Brian (memorial service) Bound Brook, NJ 8-1-15

Graduation Party•Reviewed on August 2, 2015•From Scranton, PA

I should have left this review a week ago but we left for a week long vacation after the party. I can't rave enough about Scott's impact on our party. Typical Scranton "drop my check" and stay for 30 minutes graduation party was not what we were after. We truly wanted to entertain and enjoy the company of our neighbors and friends. Scott did an incredible job. He has an extraordinary ability to read the mood of the guests and deliver music that was so in sync with the mood of the party that we had guests there until after 11:30pm enjoying Scott's talents. Scott is so entertaining and talented that I can't believe that he has any open bookings on gig masters.!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 12, 2015•From Berwyn, PA

Scott's voice, and guitar created a warm background for our forty-person outdoor adult birthday party. We had a wide range of ages and musical tastes - Scott's performance delighted them all. He was very accommodating to our needs: we asked him to arrive earlier, he did; we liked his music so much we asked him to stay longer, he did. He has a pleasing stage presence and improvised little riffs when appropriate. We all wholeheartedly appreciated his contribution to our birthday party for my ninety year old mother.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on July 5, 2015•From Media, PA

Scott was wonderful to work with and very reliable the day of the wedding. As a planner, it is always helpful when other vendors are responsive before the wedding and on time for set-up the day of the wedding. Scott was both and he provided beautiful music for the ceremony. I would recommend him to any brides or families for other events.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 28, 2015•From Phoenixville, PA

We hired Scott to provide entertainment for our son's graduation party. Scott was on time and extremely professional. His repertoire is extensive and offers tremendous variety. Early in the evening he provided wonderful background music for socializing. By the end of the night, he had us all singing arm-in-arm belting the lyrics to American Pie. We look forward to the opportunity to hire Scott again!

Scott did a wonderful job playing for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. His music was the perfect addition to our day! He was so easy to work with and took all of our requests. He had everything set up on time and seamlessly played from our ceremony to cocktail hour! Thanks so much!

We would recommend Scott Samuels to anyone and everyone. He played during our ceremony and our cocktail hour. Our guests were raving about his energy and talent all night! He was extremely accommodating in all aspects of the evening. Thank you Scott for adding to our very special day. You were amazing and we loved having you at our wedding : )

Wedding•Reviewed on November 5, 2014•From Philadelphia, PA

We hired Scott for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and we are beyond satisfied with this decision. Scott was professional, easy to work with, and extremely flexible (especially with our last minute rain plan). His repertoire is impressive to say the least, and our guests were truly wowed by his performance. We would highly recommend Scott to those considering a guitarist for their wedding and/or party.
