Review by Dana S.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 18, 2014From Philadelphia, PA

The only reason Scott got all 5's on this review is because there is no number higher. Scott is a musical genius whose professionalism is unmatched. I would recommend Scott to ANYONE who is having ANY type of event from Philadelphia to NYC. Bottom line, I'm about to plan another event just to have Scott come out to play. Words can't express how grateful we are that Scott's musical talents afforded us the opportunity to creatively express ourselves at our wedding. When we watch the recording, we will smile knowing that Scott Samuels provided the score. We literally couldn't be happier with his performance.

Private PartyReviewed on September 1, 2014From Richboro, PA

Scott showed up on time. Set up was fast He was very friendly and professional. I had already chosen a place for scott to play and as soon as he came in he assessed and made some suggestions where it would be a better place to setup and he was right on the money. Everyone came up to me and said how great he was. We even did a little karaoke. Scott played just about every song we throw up to him. He really knows his stuff. I would definitely hire him again

Private PartyReviewed on August 27, 2014From Haverford, PA

We hired Scott for an private function. Although we only contacted him the same day, he was able to fit us in his busy schedule. Scott arrived on time and was willing to work with our ever changing arrangements Scott is an extremely talented singer and musician with a great personality, engaging the audience without being over the top. His music selection offers some for everyone, from classical to contemporary. Our guests were able to select songs from his very large list and were so taken by the music that some even got-up and started to dance. I Highly recommend Scott and cannot wait for the next occasion to book him. Charles M. Haverford, PA

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 5, 2014From Princeton, NJ

Scott is very professional and was easy to work with. We communicated via email and phone and Scott had good suggestions on how to make the event run smoothly. He came on time and was flexible about last minute changes. Scott is very talented on the guitar and all the guests enjoyed his music. During cocktail hour Scott played the guitar and sang songs from his large selection. Guests were able to make selections as well. I highly recommend Scott if you would like a touch of class to your special day. I can't wait to have another party to have him play.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on August 2, 2014From Philadelphia, PA

Scott is a real talent and a hero in my book. Our original musician dissappeared 2 days before the wedding and I went online to find someone,..FAST! Scott replied within an hour and he knew the music I wanted and I asked ,saying do you realize this is tommorrow morning. He was calm, and called back later to confirm all details. He was there when we arrived a sang his heart out to everyones delight. I will always have him in mind for the future. THANKS SCOTT !!

WeddingReviewed on June 15, 2014From Upper Black Eddy, PA

Can we give Scott 6 stars? He exceed our expectations on every level. He took the time to talk with us several times before our wedding to make sure everything would be as we wanted. He learned a song not in his reportorie for us. He arrived well before the scheduled time to setup and chat with us. He was professional and kind. A beautiful musician. All of our guests could not stop asking us where we found Scott and what a great job he did. He took all our requests and really made the party great. I cannot wait to book him for our next event!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on May 19, 2014From New Hope, PA

Scott did an amazing job entertaining our 80+ guests at the outdoor patio event I held for my husband's 50th birthday. All of our guests (ranging from teenagers to my 80 year old Gram) raved about Scott's talent and the variety of songs on his extensive song list. We would definitely hire Scott again for another event as well as our guests will keep Scott in mind for their future events!! Thanks again Scott!! ~Susan Reinhart - Jamison PA

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on May 10, 2014From Robbinsville, NJ

Scott is a talented musician that will leave you wanting more of his music! He played guitar and sang at my husband's 60th birthday party, which made the event extra special and memorable. Scott’s musical talent encompasses a vast repertoire of decades, artists and musical styles, playing literally ‘something for everyone’. His personality is wholesome and friendly, allowing his presence to be a natural fit. My husband and family are already requesting Scott return for upcoming events!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on January 20, 2014From Paulsboro, NJ

Scott Samuels MADE this party. So many times you think that if I only had music... This was a ninety birthday party, there was a range of ages from kids to elderly and everyone had a good time. I was so touched with how Scott handled the children; there were about 6 that were really drawn to his side and he played songs they liked and let them "perform". I cannot give enough stars to for his professionalism and ability to know when and what to play during the party. THANK YOU Scott...

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on November 21, 2013From Philadelphia, PA

Hire this guy! Wow, Scott is amazing. Everyone was raving about him DURING the reception (as well as after). He just knows what to play, no list necessary. If it would be appropriate to keep him in your living room and play wonderful music all day, that would be the way to go. Thank you, Scott, you really helped make our day beautiful.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on August 26, 2013From Avalon, NJ

This was the first time that I used Gig Masters to book entertainment. The person that I had hired (recommended by the location) had to cancel with fairly short notice. I booked Scott based on the samples available on his website and by a brief conversation with him on the phone. We couldn't have been happier. His preparation, communication and most importantly his music exceeded our expectations 1000 fold. A true professional that will arrive early, stay late and entertain you all evening. Thanks Scott!

Corporate FunctionReviewed on July 12, 2013From Philadelphia, PA

One of the best decisions I made for our company party was to hire Scott to play. Scott is a very talented musician and his musical memory for songs was the most often cited feature of the event.

Retirement PartyReviewed on June 16, 2013From Monmouth Junction, NJ

From first point of contact, Scott has always been professional and readily available to answer any questions. He arrived to the gig on time and stuck to our agreed upon breaks and duration. If you're looking for an artist with tons of experience, professionalism and a diverse song selection, Scott is your guy. His musical taste and song selection throughout the party definitely fit the mood and received tons of positive feedback from our guests. I highly recommend Scott and will be sure to keep him top of mind for our next party.

CelebrationReviewed on May 11, 2013From Califon, NJ

Scott was wonderful! He is an excellent musician and a great entertainer. He was kind enough to learn a new song for the event. Everyone gave me such nice compliments about Scott - how much they enjoyed him and his music. I wish I had another party planned so I could invite him back . Thank you, Scott!

EventReviewed on December 23, 2012From New York City, NY

Scott was a Godsend, and I could not be happier with him! From the get-go Scott made himself available, and was extremely accommodating in all aspects from planning to performance. He even took the time to learn a new song (even though he has memorized more music than I think I have even heard in my lifetime), and ensured all was perfect and ready to go prior to the event. This gig was a surprise performance so I could propose to my beautiful girlfriend, now fiancé :), and knowing that Scott was there helped ease my nerves. His performance was outstanding, and he owned the new song as if he had written it himself (even though he only days to learn it). Amazing!

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on December 2, 2012From Slate Hill, NY

Scott is the best! The music he played at our wedding ceremony was beautiful. He also did an incredible job at the cocktail hour. It is amazing how much music he has memorized. Not only does Scott play great music, but he is a professional. He was on top of everything from the minute we booked, right up though the wedding. We are so happy we chose Scott to play at our wedding!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 23, 2012From Hammonton, NJ

Absolutely fantastic! A pure pleasure - he played every song that we requested and then some and we enjoyed every note. I received several compliments about our choice of musician and many people wondering where we found him because of how good he was. His acoustic classical preheat before the ceremony was particularly great. He also performed a slowed down version of "This Magic Moment" and it was fantastic as well. Thanks Scott!! We would hire for other events definitely.
