Damian’s team was AMAZING! I not only received two well skilled musicians, but they were so flexible, professional, and kind! I will definitely be using their services again!
Classical Duo
Response from Damian Garcia:
I’m so glad it turned out beautifully!
Damian was incredible to work with. He was communicative, accommodating, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. The band set a great atmosphere for our event with their music. It was one of the highlights of my night. We asked Damian to play some specific songs, some that i wasn't sure would be known, but there was no issue at all. Damian made everything so easy and delivered with top quality. As a control freak, I was pleased to be able to feel confident in leaving everything up to Damian and his team, and everything turned out perfectly. I would work with him over and over again!!!

Jane thank you! Glad to be part of such a special event (and the food was amazing!!! Haha)
Damian was incredibly professional, talented as hell and an overall joy to work with. We booked him for a last minute party and he managed to put together an all star quartet for such a magical evening. A Charlie Brown Christmas moment really stole my heart. Thank you, Damian! What a treat.
Damian and his quartet were fantastic! I had people coming up to me the whole time saying how much they enjoyed Damian's music. If you are looking for the best jazz group for your next event, Damian is the guy to call!

Damian was so wonderful to work with, he was professional, a great musician, and super accommodating to any changes that came up for our event. I received many compliments on his music and how kind he was. It was a pleasure to work with such a true professional.
Damian and his trio are incredibly talented. We had them perform at two of our galas and it truly elevated the night and made everything feel 5-star. They truly play beautiful music. Highly recommend!!
Jazz Band
Response from Damian Garcia:
Thank you Katie! You made planning the event super easy and effortless. The guests loved the music and I hope we can work together again!
Damian Garcia and the band he assembled was extremely professional and sounded GREAT. He assembled a group of jazz musicians, including a bass and saxophone, to perform custom jazz covers of popular songs. He was more than happy to edit the set list with me, and was super easy to work with when coordinating the 'Grand Entrance' of the event. He and the band arrived early to set up, and took great cues throughout the night. He even let us borrow his speaker for the rest of the night after he and his team left.
I would recommend him for any formal or professional event you're throwing. He was super easy to work with and the band really conformed to our vision and requests. Cannot praise them enough!

I hope we get the chance to do it again!
Damian Garcia was exactly what we were looking for! A talented, friendly, professional local Austin pianist who provided the swanky ambience we needed for our event at the 725 Space inside The Fairmont Austin hotel. 5 Stars - I'd definitely book him again!

Thank you Jessica! I appreciate you and all the effort you put in into getting me a grand piano!
Damian and his crew were awesome! We hired them to play at our NYE party at our senior living community. The residents loved them! The trio was professional. The music was perfect for our event. And they were kind enough to play a resident's favorite song, La Bamba. We will definitely give them a call again! Thank you so much, again!!
1920s Era Entertainment, Jazz Band, Keyboard Player
I am so glad I hired Damian for a holiday party that I had at my home last weekend. He put together a trio (keyboard, base, and percussion) and they were incredible! They arrived on time and looking like a million bucks, all wearing black suits. The music was SO cool and so gorgeous - they played a great mix of groovy jazz and several holiday tunes. They were all great entertainers; they were really into playing and truly made the party so special. Also, they are all very professional, nice people. I will definitely work with Damian in the future!

Damian and his group were a great fit for our casino 1920's dinner night! The singer even wore an amazing dress that matched the feel of the party perfectly while the rest of the band showed up in suits with bow ties. The band was very professional and flexible with placement. I've worked with a lot of entertainment and you never know what level of professionalism you are going to get in hiring a band. Rest assured, Damian and his group are very professional and easy to work with. I look forward to working with Damian and his group again for future events!

Response from Damian Garcia:
Thanks Marisha! You and your team were great hosts and made the event memorable!
I know my review is EXTREMELY late but I have to say, Damian is an outstanding musician. He was hired to play for a wedding I coordinated last year and it a great experience. Not only was he completely professional and highly skilled as a musician, but he was also flexible and knowledgeable when it came to working with the singer who was hired as well. I would highly recommend Damian for any wedding or special event.
Pianist
I reached out to Damian about playing piano for our wedding ceremony. He went above and beyond to learn any songs we requested, and he also reached out to a few of his friends to form a 3 piece jazz band for our reception dinner. We were super impressed with how great both he and the band sounded throughout the wedding. Although Damian moved to Austin (our wedding was in Dallas) between the time I first contacted him to the time of the wedding, he still honored his commitment to play our wedding. The only difficulty was contacting him within the last month of the wedding because he was incredibly busy with all the other gigs he was booking! But, I figured that must have meant he was very popular=). Thanks, Damian, for making our wedding a much more elegant and refined affair!
Jazz Pianist, Pianist
We were so pleased with Damian's performance at the University's high-profile event. Lots of praise from our guests. Damian and his vocalist were thankfully able to change the location where they were playing onsite at the last minute. We really appreciated their flexibility. Awesome performance.

We called Damian a couple weeks before our event to play the piano. We had a surprise vow renewal for my parents' 20th anniversary. Damian was extremely flexible and easy to work with in coordinating everything for the surprise. He played beautifully and we were so impressed with his abilities. Cannot recommend him enough and we definitely will be calling him for any future events we have!

Sincerely,
Kurt Kaufman

Damian Garcia was invited to play for us at an Induction Ceremony back in April and we enjoyed him and the whole quartet so much, that we invited him back to do our year-end celebration banquet this past month. I am extremely impressed with Damian's ability to pull together top-notch musicians. His groups have arrived well in advance of their scheduled time, have been set up and ready to go at show time, and above all, they sound absolutely heavenly! If I could have them set up in my living room each night, I would!

Response from Damian Garcia:
Thanks, Candi! It's always great to play for the people at Allied Pathways!
Damian was absolutely amazing! We hired him the weekend before our Roaring 20's Annual Casino Night & Auction and he really brought that special touch we were needing for our event! This was our first time hiring musicians for this type of event and people were RAVING about it! He even custom built a package for us in order to work within our non-profit budget . It was a breeze to book him and he is great with follow up if you have any questions or concerns.. We will definitely hire Damian again for future events and enjoyed our experience with him greatly!

Lauren, you are your team were awesome! You guys took very good care of us and it was such a blast to play for everyone in costumes! Thanks and see you soon!
Thank you so much Damian Garcia! You made my music program a big success. I had the hardest time finding a accompanist in Allen, Texas, every piano player on gig salad, turn down my school's music event. Luckily Damian Garcia, reached out to me, and helped me with the event, he commuted from Denton to Allen for rehearsals, and both performances. My student's voice recital and elementary end of the year recital was a big success. My Director was amazed by Damian's talents, and is keeping him for reference of further upcoming performances. Our school is very pleased, and my students are shining stars. Thank you again Damian! Great appreciation to you and Thank you Gig Salad for having great talented musicians like Damian Garcia.

I ran a 3-day marketing conference for 250 people. Damian and his band played for 3 hrs during dinner and drinks ( background music), and everyone loved it.
Not only was the music amazing, the guys are true professionals with the right attitude.

Thanks, Peep! It was such a pleasure to work with ConversionXL and we are delighted to have made some new friends from Europe. Thank you!
Damian and his crew were wonderful to work with! They provided the perfect jazz music for our church's Fat Tuesday dinner. Loud enough to be festive but not too loud to overpower the room we were dining in. They were a lovely addition to our event and we hope to use them again in the future!

Response from Damian Garcia:
Tish! It was such fun working with you and the friendly team at Saint Michael. Thanks for inviting us and we hope to do it again soon!
I was hosting a surprise 40th birthday party for my wife with the theme, "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and was looking for a solid jazz trio to come and play some mood music. I talked with Damian about the style for a few minutes and left the set list in his hands.
The day arrived and I was a bit nervous because as a musician myself, I know how artists can tend to be late and flaky to say the least. As I'm driving up with my wife to take her in, I'm praying that Damian and his band are there and ready to make the party sizzle with the right music we talked about. 50's party jazz...not the crap in the elevator that puts you to sleep!
My fears were completely unnecessary, thank God! The party was a huge success in part due to the PERFECT set list and amazing performances by Damian on keys, an equally amazing standup bass player and highlighted on drums with the right amount of brushes and sticks (can't remember their names...but after this any friend of Damian is a friend of mine!).
To say the least, it was a groovy, 50's private party throwback performance that would have made Holly Golightly squeal with delight! I know my wife did!

Damian was hired with short notice for an evening engagement at a country club. He arrived promptly and appropriately dressed. With little guidance, he instinctively chose great tunes for the occasion. He's also a very talented and sensitive musician.

Damian and his vocalist Jeremy were just what our club needed in the dining room on a cold winter day. Our members truly enjoyed their calm sound and they were exceptionally impressed with Damian's piano skills. We will definitely be hiring him back soon!
Easy Listening Band, Jazz Pianist, Jazz Singer
Damian's music helped create the ambiance we were looking for and he kept the volume at a perfect setting so we are able to mingle without having to shout over each other. Would highly recommend!
Jazz Pianist
I hired Damian Garcia to accompany me for a couple of my singing engagements, and he’s fabulous! Damian is very professional and knows jazz music and standards very well. We had very little rehearsal time to practice the vocal standards I was performing, but he followed me and extemporized his jazz solos beautifully. Damian lives in Denton, but was willing to travel to Austin for my last event. He works very well with soloists and can even help you find extra instrumentalists. I would highly recommend him as a piano accompanist or stand-alone jazz pianist for your event.
Jazz Pianist
Response from Damian Garcia:
Thank you so much Lady Laraine! Looking forward to the next time very soon.
Damian was an excellent choice for our event. He was just what we needed. His ability to move us with his gift was effortless. He even played impromptu for a vocalist; unrehearsed and made it sound as if they had worked together forever. He not only looks the part, but plays with precision and poise, moving us with every note. I will recommend him to everyone and find reasons to hire him.

What to Expect
My task is to provide a pleasant and stress free musical experience. Often, my job is to simply be ambient/background music for parties or gatherings. I play a variety of styles, my goal being to enhance the overall atmosphere of the even with music while allowing the guests to converse freely at a comfortable volume. I enjoy spontaneity, take requests and will have as much or as little interaction as audience members desire.
For wedding ceremonies, I meet with clients and determine their desires. I encourage couples to be creative in their choice of ceremony music, as I am capable of transcribing or learning musical selections from as little information as possible. In the past, clients have given me nothing more than a YouTube sample as examples of what they want. I gladly entertain all suggestions.

Influences & Inspiration
Although I draw from a number of influences in the jazz world, I model my playing after the many vocalists I grew up listening. I try craft a solo around the theory that my musical lines are meant to have lyrics. This helps me deliver a more artful musical experience that is a pleasure to listen to as well as self fulfilling in terms of what I am trying to do.
