Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 22, 2011•From New York City, NY

We hired Scott to play during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and couldn't be happier. Scott did a great job performing, but more than that he was extremely organized throughout the planning process - going over song lists and logistics - which was very much appreciated. We knew we could count on Scott and he totally delivered. We need another event for him to play at!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on August 21, 2011•From New Haven, CT

Scott is an extremely talented singer and guitarist and we are so happy that we hired him for our wedding. He was very organized, timely and thorough. He played everything that we asked and even learned a new song for our processional. Many of our guests raved about him and said he was one of the best parts about our wedding! Thanks again Scott- you rock!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 7, 2011•From Verona, NJ

Scott was fantastic. He entertained our guests that ranged in age from 45-102 and played something for everyone. He is a real musician, not just playing chords but turning each rendition of our favorite songs into original masterpieces. We will have him back for sure!

Celebration•Reviewed on August 9, 2011•From Long Island, NY

We found Scott Samuels online and were not 100% sure what to expect. But I can honestly say that Scott made our event that much more special, and was truly the life of our party. He far exceeded our expectations, and tailored his music to a wide range of people. He would even listen to some of the kids songs for a few seconds, pick them up and play... Truly talented! Everyone who attended our party complimented me on Scott, and I'm sure our circle will call on him again. We think the guy is bionic because he played for 5 hours and maybe took 2 breaks! I highly recommend Scott for any event.

Our dinner party was a complete success because of Scott Samuels! His list of songs were outstanding. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of a singer / acoustic guitar player that has unbelievable talent. All our guest could not believe the professionalism / all request were played and sounded awesome! Scott entertained us for over four hours of music and song! Mr. Samuels is the BEST!

Event•Reviewed on July 19, 2011•From New York City, NY

What can I say about Scott? Phenomenal? Superb? These words do not do him justice. Scott was a part of my proposal to my fiance. It was a unique and detailed event in which I made several changes the days before. He was exceedingly accommodating, professional, and friendly. When I told Scott of my plan he took the time to write out thorough and helpful emails of ideas and what he thought would work best. In addition, Scott had to learn a tune he had never heard before. Not only did he learn it, he nailed it! He had a personal touch that made the moment so sweet. Thinking back to all the times I received some form of customer service, Scott tops it all!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 19, 2011•From West Islip, NY

Scott was AWESOME!!! He truly was the life of my wife's surprise 40th birthday. Everything went without a hitch. His ability to play is absolutely amazing. He was so accommodating to everyone's requests, even the older Gals at the party "Grandma's." The night was going so great that I requested Scott to stay a couple of hours past the scheduled gig, and he did so with no questions asked. Just one small problem. My wife and I are looking for excuses to throw any kind of party so we can have Scott attend. For those of you looking for a truly talented professional, STOP right here-- this is your man!!!!!!! Thanks Scott "You Rock"!!!!! -Nick

Corporate Function•Reviewed on July 11, 2011•From New York City, NY

We hired Scott for our corporate party. He was early and set up quickly. He is super personable. He knew many of the songs requested and is a very talented guitar player. Everyone enjoyed his music so much that he was asked to stay well beyond his scheduled end time.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on June 30, 2011•From New York City, NY

We hired Scott for a corporate function and he did a fantastic job. His communication prior to the event was stellar, and his performance was incredible as well. The function was outdoors in the summer heat for two hours and he nailed it! Thanks again Scott!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on May 31, 2011•From Garden City, NY

From the beginning, Scott was very professional and responsive. Each time we contacted him we heard back from him right away, so it made the planning process easy. We had an "audition" with him and were impressed at the range of songs he can play, all from memory alone. He is very friendly, knows his music, and is willing to learn new music if requested. He even offered to come to our wedding early to start playing before our scheduled time in case guests arrived early which we thought was a nice touch. He was a perfect addition to our cocktail hour and wedding. He sounded fantastic and it was a wonderful way to welcome friends and family to the party.Thanks Scott!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 8, 2011•From Stockton, NJ

Scott performed at our wedding on 4/30/11 for both the ceremony and the reception. He was outstanding. I cannot say enough good things about the overall experience. From the beginning Scott was easy to work with, responsive, and professional. His extensive song list allowed us to pick more than enough songs for him to play. In terms of talent and ability Scott was amazing. He is an excellent guitar player and vocalist. A number of guests, especially those who know and appreciate music, approached me to praise Scott. Scott was also flexible and accommodating working with venue logistics, venue staff, and the schedule of the reception itself.

Birthday Party (Kids)•Reviewed on February 5, 2011•From New York City, NY

Scott was amazing! His repertoire of songs is incredible....pages and pages and pages of songs that he knows by heart. We had fun passing out the lists of songs to guests who then took turns making requests. By nights end, the party turned into karaoke night, and Scott was a great sport. I would recommend Scott without hesitation and look forward to having him perform at another of our parties in the near future. Thanks Scott!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 29, 2010•From Rockville Centre, NY

Scott was absolutely terrific. He was so good that the crowd refused to let him leave. He ended up playing for another couple of hours. No question that I would book him again for another gig.

Trade Show•Reviewed on November 10, 2010•From Morristown, NJ

Scott was excellent and we received many compliments regarding him. He played a varied selection of music which fit our event perfectly. He arrived early enough to get set up and situated. He was completely professional and very easy to work with. I most definitely recommend him.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 18, 2010•From Garrison, NY

Scott was a total hit! All of our guests loved him, noticed his talent, and enjoyed his enthusiasm for music. He really set the ambiance we wanted and completed the close, warm feeling we envisioned for our wedding. More than once that day we heard the question, "Where did you find this guy?". We couldn't have been more pleased. We would highly recommend him, and will likely hire him again for a neighborhood block party. Thank you Scott!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on October 5, 2010•From Tarrytown, NY

Scott played at our wedding last night at the Castle in Tarrytown NY. He was so awesome and all of our guests really loved him. He was perfect for our small wedding. He is so talented and easy going. My Husband is also a singer and sang with Scott and it was fantastic. Scott plays the guitar and sings but its feels as if he has 3 or 4 people with him, he had us all up dancing and played beautiful music during dinner. He made our wedding experience amazing. I would hire him again and I would highly recommend him!!! Thanks Scott!!!!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on September 27, 2010•From Milford, PA

We couldn't be happier with Scott's performance during our Wedding. Every request we made, Scott was willing to accommodate. His talent and ability showed through during all phases of our wedding (Ceremony, Cocktail Hour, Dinner, and Dancing). I think his ability to play music during the different parts of our wedding is a testament to his broad and diverse musical talents. To put it simply, we would be quick to recommend Scott and even quicker to hire him again!

Awards Night Party•Reviewed on August 31, 2010•From New York City, NY

Scott's performance was outstanding. His musical choices fit the occasion (event) perfectly. He was in fine voice and his guitar playing was excellent. In addition, Scott was most accomodating and flexible and was a pleasure to work with throughout the evening. Scott contributed significantly to the success of the event. He deserves a 5 rating in all aspects of his work yesterday evening.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 27, 2010•From Mount Tabor, NJ

What a great experience! We hired Scott to perform for our entire wedding--ceremony, cocktail hour and reception--and he was amazing. His repertoire and abilities are so great that musically each part of our day had a distinct sound and feel. His song list is long and diverse. Not only was he professional, he was also very patient with us and helpful in suggesting music choices. And he also learned new songs for us. I highly recommend him, and I look forward to hiring him again!
