Review by Barry O.

Retirement PartyReviewed on July 7, 2012From Saugerties, NY

Glen truly has the spirit of aloha and was able to share his aloha with my sister and her guests when we could not attend her retirement party. Living in Maui, Hawaii, we really wanted a performer who could represent us, and Glen, with his charm, easygoing attitude and ukelele did the job perfectly! We highly recommend Glen for any event..

:

Aloha, Barry! Thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to write. The party was delightful, with delicious foods, good friends and the ever-present refrains of Hawaiian flowers, mango and soft breezes which you sent along in the music. I was delighted to deliver smiles from the isles and bring your love to your sister's retirement celebration. (There wasn't a dry eye in the room when I read your sweet note – including mine!) With gratitude, Glen

Anniversary PartyReviewed on October 15, 2013From Garrison, NY

Glen was so amazing! He was professional, genuine, and authentically sweet from our very first conversation right through to the end. He sang our beautiful ceremony and our cocktail hour and had everyone grooving to his sound. Even I, the bride, sang with him and he never skipped a beat. He truly added such a special and memorable soundtrack to our most magical day. Thank You Glen for being so amazing!!! You rocked our world. XOXO - Dee & Craig Muraszewski

EventReviewed on December 7, 2012From New York City, NY

Glen is amazing! He was prompt with gig quotes as well as personable. Working with Glen was such a pleasure, and having him present made my proposal a million times more special. He is VERY talented and I literally could not have asked for anything more from him. I had to change the location of the event at the last minute, and he was still amazingly accommodating. CAN NOT RECOMMEND HIM ENOUGH. Thanks Glen, you made this a truly memorable night!

:

My pleasure, David :-) Thank you for sharing this very special moment with me, and congratulations to you and Rachel!

We were thrilled having Glen Roethel at our event. From the moment of our first contact with him, he was incredibly professional, yet very warm and accommodating. We had a sense he was a talented performer from what we heard on Gigmasters, but he really exceeded our expectations on every count. Our guests couldn't believe how great he was, and he played exactly what we were hoping he would play, as well, if not better than many of the performers whose songs he was covering. We would hire him again in a minute, and we hope we will have the opportunity to do so, unless he becomes too successful in the meantime (which seems totally conceivable to us).

July 4th PartyReviewed on July 5, 2011From Monmouth Beach, NJ

Glen was amazing at our 4th of July BBQ. The weather certainly didn't start out as ideal and Glen rolled with it and provided great entertainment. The performance only got better with the weather. Glen was professional, courteous and great with everyone at the party, especially the kids. I think he had my infant niece mesmerized with the ukulele. A great time was had by all and I had to get a stack of business cards from Glen to hand out to everyone who wanted it. All in all, a great time, and we're looking forward to having Glen back at future parties...

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on September 8, 2014From Troy, NY

Glen is amazing! The songs he sang for our ceremony and cocktail hour were perfect and spot on. Glen played beautifully the songs we requested for the ceremony and had a nice mix for the cocktail hour too. Countless guests commented about Glen and how outstanding his music was. Glen was easy to work with, always getting back to me right away to answer any questions. I would with hire Glen without hesitation again!!

Wow, what a treat it was Saturday night listening to Glen! He handled all requests without missing a beat, even did a Stones song for my friend! Glen was perfect for our celebration, and people raved all night long. Thanks for helping to make my sons' night one to remember!

WeddingReviewed on July 9, 2013From Highlands, NJ

Glen was really amazing to work with. He went above and beyond the call of duty in terms of requests and was so incredibly patient and adaptable. He helped make our day very special. I would hire him again or recommend him without hesitation.

WeddingReviewed on May 25, 2013From Baltimore, MD

Glen drove all the way from upstate NY to play at our wedding and cocktail hour in Baltimore on May 11th. We had interviewed many local ukulele players to perform "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" by Iz Kamakawiwo?ole, but they all played it the way it's performed in the Wizard of Oz. Glen not only nailed the song, he played it in the same key as Iz. My husband and I could not have been more pleased. Glen kept it light and positive, even though it rained on our outdoor wedding. A true professional! We highly recommend!

He was awesome!! Music was great. I would highly recommend him and would definitely use him again. I had the best time. He played special requests. Everyone remarked on how perfect he was. And not too loud for the size of the room. Thank you Glen!!

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on February 15, 2016From Manhattan, NY

We hired Glen to perform at our wedding in Manhattan after listening to his sample videos on Gigmaster. His performance was incredible, his voice is extraordinary and all of our guests were talking about how amazing his voice is. He was very professional, on time, and has a very kind demeanor. We would highly recommend him for any performance! Wouldn't have changed a thing!

:

Thank you, Paula! And your wedding was so beautiful and joyful - just thinking about it makes me smile :-) Congratulations!!

New Year's Eve PartyReviewed on January 10, 2016From Bernardsville, NJ

Glen's talent stands out, both in his guitar playing, as well as his singing. On top of this, Glen knows how to "feel" the mood of his audience and to respond to that mood accordingly. And even better, Glen knows how to move the mood so that the audience is enjoying themselves. Glen is also entertaining beyond his musical talents. We enjoyed his company and look forward to bringing him back for future parties.

:

I appreciate that, Sue, as well as your gracious hosting, kind husband and fun friends. Yours was the most dynamic and exciting New Years Eve party I've ever seen – thank you for having me as a part of it!

WeddingReviewed on October 22, 2015From New Paltz, NY

We had the privilege of having Glen perform at our recent Jewish ceremony this past weekend (10/2015). Glen did an absolutely flawless job with his musical selection, his performance, and his interaction with our guests. He was able to keep our small intimate wedding entertained throughout the ceremony. Aside from his excellent ability to perform the songs we had selected (and learning to play some new songs as well), he was able to keep my overly energetic niece and nephew thoroughly entertained throughout - even having my 5 year old nephew sit still and remain focused (a previously thought impossible task) We would absolutely recommend him to everyone.

:

Thank you, Ronen! Your ceremony and reception were beautiful (and I secretly renewed my vows to my beloved wife while you made yours)!

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on October 23, 2015From New York City, NY

Glen is such an amazing talent, we had him perform at not one, but two events this summer! Glen played at my Bridal Shower, and we loved him so much that we also asked him to play during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The most incredible thing about Glen is that he takes the time to treat each event as something special and unique, to really read his clients and the audience, and to customize his set list accordingly. Glen understood our desire for an eclectic mix, and played everything from Elvis, to Jason Mraz, to Coldplay, to The Beatles. We love Glen and would highly recommend him for any special occasion you have coming up!
