Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 29, 2014•From Marshfield, MA

Joe was the featured entertainment at my Mother-in-law's 70th birthday party. He got to the venue early to set up so not to spoil the surprise for the guest of honor and to coordinate with the caterers. Although Joe's repertoire goes far beyond the needs of this gig, he performed all the classic Irish folk songs for the 60 or so guests who tapped their feet and occasionally sang along. His rendition of Wild Rover was especially fantastic. He even learned one song just for our party. He looks like an Irishman and the smooth tone of his voice and his acoustic guitar filling the function hall helped make this party a memorable one.

Fundraiser•Reviewed on March 15, 2014•From Woodstock, CT

I can't say enough good things about Joe Greaney, who did a great job adding the "Irish" to our "Irish Night" fundraiser event, providing beautifully performed Irish ballads which had many in the dinner audience singing along with him. Joe has the talent, stage presence and extraordinarily deep repertoire of songs to adapt to any event - he even learned a few "requests" for the evening. While there are many talented musicians out there, what sets Joe apart is his ability to read the mood of his audience and adapt on a fly. That sounds like a small thing, but it can make or break an event. I'd recommend Joe Greaney to anyone. You won't be disappointed!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on June 19, 2017•From Morris, CT

We had our wedding in May 2017 at South Farms in Morris CT and hired Joe for our outdoor cocktail hour. He was AMAZING, I cannot say enough good things. Everything was already set up by the time my husband and I arrived. He played exactly the music we wanted... our guests would not stop coming up to us and saying how incredible he was! He also plays the guitar beautifully. You will not regret it if you book, we loved him! Currently thinking of an excuse to hire him again! :)

Joe played during the cocktail hour of our wedding reception. Unfortunately, we were taking pictures during the cocktail hour, but our guests have raved about how wonderful the music was during the cocktail hour. We are so pleased!!

Rehearsal Dinner•Reviewed on June 24, 2016•From Newport, RI

From the very beginning Joe was awesome. We had him play a rehearsal dinner and he played songs that everyone knew and loved. We had multiple guests interacting with him all night, and kids running around him and yet he never missed a beat. This is absolutely the person you want at your next event as he will make your night that much better!

Community Event•Reviewed on June 14, 2016•From Brighton, MA

Joe Greaney was wonderful to work with - very easy going, appreciative of the audience and quite talented. Due to rain, we had to move from the outside courtyard to our Club Room and Joe adapted to our needs. Great job Joe!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 24, 2018•From Wilmington, MA

Joe did not show up. He was due to arrive at 3:30 and hadn't arrived by 4:00 at which time I checked my emails to discover he had sent me an email at 2:00 telling me he was ill and unable to perform. Totally unacceptable that he didn't give me earlier notice when he claimed to waking up very ill. His late notice left me with no options of trying to find replacement. I had no entertainment for my event. He should have called me instead of sending an email. I was busy with preparations and not checking emails. I only checked at 4 when he hadn't shown up as planned. NEVER AGAIN will I use this service.

Baby Shower•Reviewed on September 20, 2021•From Framingham, MA

Joe was great and a big hit! He showed up early to the event to get set up. He had a great set list of songs for a unique event (baby shower) that everyone loved. It definitely made the event and I'd recommend Joe to anyone! Thanks, Chris

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 11, 2021•From Bethlehem, NH

Joe was prompt and responsive in communication. He arrived to the site on time and well prepared. He selected an excellent variety of material which helped set the tone of our event and brought both his talent and a positive energy to the evening. Joe did a great job, I couldn't have asked for more.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 8, 2021•From Norwell, MA

Joe did an amazing job at our backyard party! I sent him a list of favorite artists and he pulled together an incredible set list that was the perfect groove for the crowd. He was extremely easy to work with and plan for the event, came to set up early and was even willing to stay later than originally planned. He is an extremely talented singer and guitarist, I couldn't recommend him more! Everyone at the party loved him. I'm so happy to have met Joe and hope to have him back at our next event!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 16, 2021•From Cumberland, RI

We had a 50th Birthday cookout for my girlfriend. We had a group that included mixed ages. Joe had something for everyone. Joe was accommodating on all requests. Joe brings an extensive song list that is all performed by memory which was really impressive. Joe was absolutely the correct choice for our event and we look forward to getting him back In the future.
