Overview
Live musician & licensed wedding officiant. From large banquets to intimate acoustic settings, I've been helping people celebrate special occasions since 2011. For the past 7 years I have been touring the east coast from NY to FL, and am now settling (and booking!) in the DFW Metroplex. I love what I do, and I'd love to help make your event unforgettable.

He brought the perfect vibe for our luau themed happy hour and was great to work with - showed up early, was quick setting up and taking down, provided all of his own equipment, and had great communication! Andy was super interactive with the guests, took suggestions, and really heightened the event with his music. I would happily recommend him to anyone looking for live music with a great vibe and will definitely be rebooking!

Andy is kind and talented. My couple had a small elopement with immediate family. Andy played guitar and sand her down the aisle and then married them! It was memorable to say the least.

Singing Guitarist
We hired Andy to sing at our casual outdoor pool party at the shore. All of the guests enjoyed the music and talked about how great he was after the party. The songs played were perfect for a casual event but we also had fun dancing along.
Singing Guitarist
All of my guest loved Andy! He is an awesome singer and guitar player! He is so flexible, I really couldn't believe the lengths he went to for us! Since the party was held at an outdoor restaurant, I really didn't know what to do if the weather was bad. Andy was in contact with me the whole week before the party to see what we would do if the weather turned out bad. During the middle of the party the clouds started rolling in, and Andy actually re-set up all of his equipment under a canopy area and finished playing! He was unbelievable! He was very professional and I would definitely hire him for any future parties! Thank you Andy for making my husbands birthday awesome!

We booked Andy for a house party, and he did great! He was very professional and showed up an hour early to meet everyone and set up. He did great renditions to songs everyone knows and loves. He is an excellent guitar player and has a great voice. He had everyone singing along with him and dancing. We even asked him if he could stay an extra hour because everyone was having such a good time, and he was able to do so! Definitely book Andy for your next party if you want a good time!

He's professional, courteous and all ways on time. I think its only a mater of time before some talent scout scopes him up from us mere mortals. If you want the best, forget the rest. Book him today!
