Ben is a phenomenal professional guitar player. From our first contact he put us at ease about our 110-person event overlooking the FSU stadium. The music was perfect. Elegant yet not so overpowering as to drown out conversation.
Ben provided wedding reception music that set a nice mood for guests to enjoy outdoor dining and conversation. He was on time, was an excellent musician and played the entire time agreed upon. Very happy we found him!
Ben was very responsive and attentive to all of my concerns. This was our first time hiring a solo artist. He worked well with our group and was very professional. Ben is a very talented artist and his playing made our event a night to remember.
