Andy performed at our home. Excellent pianist.

We asked Andy to play a few carols and some ambient music for our Christmas Cocktail party. His whole demeanor and approach was wonderful. He was so accommodating and flexible on many levels. Andy was able to play both traditional and contemporary arrangements for the Christmas carols and almost every one of our guests commented the next day what a great talent and addition Andy was to the party. Looking forward to booking Andy again. He is extremely professional and a great talent. You won't be disappointed if you hire him!! Patti-Ann (Port Credit area)

Andy is a talented young professional. He played piano for just about two hours straight for our cocktail party and he added to the atmosphere of our event beautifully. Polite and on time. I would certainly recommend him.

We held our annual staff holiday party and found a hidden gem through Gig Salad named Andy Kitusa. We were amazed at how well he played and the variety of pieces he played both old and new. It was a pleasure having him play at our event and will certainly ask him to perform again in the years to come.
All the best,
