Corporate Function•Reviewed on August 25, 2010•From Elmsford, NY

We were very happy with Scotts performace. He was acommodating to our needs and was able to fulfill our vision of what our event should be like. I'm very glad we used gig masters and that we were able to find Scott through it.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 16, 2010•From Oceanside, NY

Scott was amazing. We first auditioned him in NYC,. After hearing his tunes and witnessing his talent playing on the acoustic guitar, we booked him on the spot. He stayed in contact with us up to the day of. His talent is apparent when he started singing the song my daughter requested as she walked down the aisle. Very, very romantic. Scott performed at the cocktail hour as well. He even took a request and sang with the groom's couisin. I would hire Scott again, without hesitation. He is truly a professional, talented musician! Thanks Gig Masters for listing such amazing artists. Scott you're the best!!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 18, 2010•From Basking Ridge, NJ

We hired Scott to play at our rehearsal dinner. It was a Texas BBQ themed dinner in NJ. He did a wonderful job and even learned a new song that I dedicated to my soon to be husband. He did an amazing job!Scott worked very hard to get every detail right for our event. He put together the perfect variety of songs to create the perfect atmosphere. We had several of our guests comment on how talented they thought he was and how much they enjoyed listening to him. All in all, Scott was a great addition to our event. We highly recommend him!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 11, 2010•From West Park, NY

Scott is not only an unbelievably talented musician, but also incredibly accommodating and professional. Throughout the planning process, Scott made himself available for all of our needs. The classical guitar pieces he played during our ceremony were beautiful and the acoustic/vocals during the cocktail hour were just awesome. Our guests were raving about his performance all night. Scott, I cannot thank you enough for your courtesy and accommodation. I have a few friends who will likely be getting married soon, and I have a feeling you'll be hearing from them.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 28, 2010•From Teaneck, NJ

We hired Scott for our wedding and have NO regrets! We trusted him to feel the crowd out and use his own judgement regarding song selections. He exceeding our expectations and was very accomodating with requests from our guests. He is a well rounded, very professional entertainer. A party is only as good as the food and the entertainment. Alot of the guests commented that our's was the best reception they had ever been at. I think they ment it. Scott was a big part of making that happen. He took our reception to another level. Will hire him again, should the occasion arise.

Bar Mitzvah•Reviewed on June 13, 2010•From Woodmere, NY

Scott was fantastic. He is a true guitar player, sang wonderfully and created the ambiance we were looking for at our son's Bar Mitzvah Party. He played exactly what everyone liked to hear, was very accommodating and a true professional. It was a pleasure for us to have him play and we highly recommend him for any occasion.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 1, 2010•From North Andover, MA

We were totally thrilled with Scott's performance. Everyone loved him. We have received many positive comments and many people asked for his card for future bookings. I have never used an entertainer for a party before, and I had some misgivings and anxieties, but I will definitely use Scott again. Scott performed for us at a high school graduation party with about 50 guests who were either adults or high school seniors. He was open to requests and had a very large repertoire which suited the two age groups.

My wedding ceremony would have had an important part missing if Scott Samuels didn't play. My husband and I were extremely happy with that flare, it was truly a wonderful magical feeling.. Thank you for making our ceremony and cocktail hour special..

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on April 12, 2010•From Hagerstown, MD

Scott did an absolutely amazing job! His talent and personality helped to make both our wedding and our reception unforgettable. He is extremely professional, accommodating, friendly, and fun. In addition to his unbelievable repertoire of songs, Scott even learned a new special song for us. He's open to taking guest requests, and he even let my new husband play and sing with him. He definitely set the perfect mood for our entire event. There's no competition for Scott's vocal or guitar ability. I would recommend him to anyone, and we hope to have the opportunity to hear him again!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on February 15, 2010•From Boca Raton, FL

A lovely person to work with; completely professional and reliable. He actually learned Hebrew songs for my event. Stayed in 24/7 contact with me and immediately replied to any queries. He has a delightful voice and his guitar skills were worth flying him to Florida for our event. I would hire him again and again and give him my highest recommendation. Extremely accommodating, pleasant, and a gifted musician and singer.

Celebration•Reviewed on January 17, 2010•From Port Jefferson, NY

Scott was a pleasure to work with. Before the gig started she was my girlfriend, by the end she was my fiance. Scott made our night so special, he even learned our song. Scott was extremely professional to work with, and paid fine attention to detail so as to maximize our experience. Scott played beautifully, bringing us back to the first time we had ever heard our song, we were truly in heaven. I would highly recommend Scott, not only for his professionalism and great talent, but also for his love of music and performing. Thank you so much Scott for helping to make our day so special.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on January 10, 2010•From White Plains, NY

Scott is extremely professional and talented. He even learned a new song so the groom's sister could sing to us during the ceremony. Scott made everything easy, set-up quickly, and even arrived early to make sure everything was perfect. We received many compliments from our guests, and we were so happy to have Scott as part of our ceremony and cocktail hour.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 30, 2009•From Westbury, NY

Scott Samuels contributed tremendously to the success and overall enjoyment of our event. He even learned my mother's favorite song for her, which was HUGE! He was gracious, professional and wonderful to hire. I can't recommend him enough. He knew the words to every song on his play list and played a large range of music for everyone to enjoy. He even managed to handle the 10 kids dancing and running around him as the event wore one. I will hire him again for my next event, hands down!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 16, 2009•From White Plains, NY

Scott was fabulous. The music was so appropriate, performed so well and at a perfect sound level, not too loud. I would recommend Scott to anyone and everyone. He is so talented and versatile. The music was just the right mix of pop and rock and some classical. I had so many guests positively comment on the music asking where we found Scott, so gig Masters got its plug as well.

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 1, 2009•From Jamesport, NY

I was very happy with Scott's performance during the wedding. Admittedly, I was preoccupied with other things on that day. However, several guests commented that they thought he was very good. It was a perfect day, and Scott's performance was a big part of that. He was especially accommodating when we needed to borrow one of his microphone setups for the ceremony. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 12, 2009•From Babylon, NY

From the very first phone conversation I had with Scott I knew I was in very good hands. He covered things that I never even thought to ask. He kept in touch from the time of booking to the wedding about every detail. He called a day or two prior to my wedding just to confirm everything and make sure I had no changes. The day of the wedding went perfectly. I had numerous guests comment on how good the music was and to ask me where I found him. Scott even learned two special songs that we wanted for our ceremony and they were done to perfection. I would strongly reccomend hiring him for any important event that you would like to exceed your expectations.

We hired Scott for our wedding in Central Park and our dinner afterwards. He learned our song for the recessional and played it flawlessly! Scott is extremely talented and accomodating and very professional. Our guests loved him! At the dinner he took all our guests' requests and even let us sing along. Scott was a hit and we would hire him again and again. We will definitely be recommending him to our friends.

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on September 28, 2009•From Philadelphia, PA

Scott was an absolute hit when he played the music for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We received so many compliments about him from our guests. We even had musicians in attendance who were extremely impressed! Scott was fantastic to work with too! He is easy to get in touch with and very detail oriented. He accommodated every specific request I made. When I didn't know what I wanted and was less specific, he took the reigns and it turned out great. Thank you Scott! You helped to make our wedding memorable and wonderful.
