Brad Ackland

We had such a wonderful birthday celebration for our mom thanks to Mr. Ackland! He made the evening so special for her. Such a beautiful singing voice and kept the entire group engaged the entire time!

Brad was a hit for our Mimis’s 100th birthday party. His singing was brilliant and had the sweetest personality. We loved having him perform and the opportunity to meet him

Wow! Brad was definitely the right pick for entertainer at our Woman’s Club 50th Anniversary party! ALL of the ladies (of all ages) enjoyed his performance! Brad made sure to sing the whole time and had excellent interaction with the audience. His communication leading up to the event was also exceptional. I highly recommend Brad for a special event!

Our wedding was a once in a life time experience, and it's all thanks to Brad! Seriously, Our guests could not stop talking about him for months.

Beside his incredible talent for singing, we’re confident there is not a DJ/singer/band that would put the effort that Brad did in understanding what our vision is and help make it happen. You can tell he genuinely cares about making each wedding special. His professionalism and confidence shows how experienced he is in this industry and put us at ease before our big day.

He's very funny and engaging, making our guests laugh often and also putting them at ease. He is also very supportive and would give incredible advice before our wedding day. He would check in with us during the wedding to make to make sure everything was going perfect.

So if you want incredible entertainment that'll have your guests talking for ages, look no further. Trust me, you won't regret it!

Brad was a fantastic addition to our event. He entertained our VIP crowd with great music, then kicked off our program in style.

Brad did not disappoint. He was on time to get set up and gave a great performance. A class act all the way. I would recommend him and hire him again.

Brad is the whole package: amazing vocalist, performer, crooner, professional, flexible, and has the look. We booked him for our black-tie wedding that was held in the great Hall of State (art deco) in Fair Park, and Brad provided the singing for the sit-down dinner and played dance music when his set was over. We provided a list of songs for the dance which was perfect. You don't not need a DJ unless you want that energy, but this didn't stop our guests from dancing the whole night. His singing and presence was made for the great Hall, and added the class and pizazz for our wedding day. We're so thrilled that we booked him and would do it again for another event! He sang for us when we cut our cake and had our last solo dance together. It was perfect. Thank you, Brad for adding to our happiest day. I appreciated his talent, but more so, his attitude and professionalism (prompt responses and efficient).

At our event, Brad was the epitome of perfection. He sang the songs of the Big Band Era with perfect pitch, ease and style. He has a smooth, full volume singing voice that is a pleasure to hear. He was impeccably dressed in tux and black tie. He was a pleasure to work with while planning our event, and as well while performing at our event, as he took requests from an audience of 110, and he knew every song, beautifully performing each one to our guests delight. He had a way of managing and working the room, leaving everyone satisfied with his musical acumen and style. I would highly recommend Brad for any musical event you may be planning.

Highly recommend!

He was talked about almost more than my wife and I at our own wedding. He sang incredibly well and was capable of either melting into the background or stealing the show. I strongly recommend hiring him.

Mr Brad was hired as a surprise for my parents 60th wedding anniversary. What an amazing man and performer! He is all heart and soul and went above and beyond entertaining my parents. They are both over the moon and it is the next day. I am humbled by his craft and his ability to truly sing and entertain. You are a gift sir!

AWESOME!

The Rockwall County Newcomers & Friends were once again mesmerized by the vocal stylings of wonderful Brad Ackland. He answered all of our requests & had us laughing & in tears as he brought back old memories, happy, sad & romantic. He was the perfect show for our Valentine's Day themed luncheon.

We had seen him perform at Frisco Hall at our first valentine's and we knew he had to be part of our wedding. He was beyond amazing and professional. Since the first contact, prompt and clear communication, he stopped before the event to review the space and equipment and arrived to setup and start the event on time and as planned. He went above and beyond, and we are absolutely grateful to have had him be part of our day.
10/10!

Brad was so professional and was reassuring that things will go smoothly even if they didn’t go according to plan. Everyone loved his vibe and his choice of songs that he sang. I am still getting compliments days after the wedding.

On top of singing he was able to balance out being the MC and keeping the crowd in the party mood.

Thank you Brad for being an essential piece to my amazing wedding!!!!!

David and Cerzi hong

Brad was outstanding! Our guests were delighted and engaged during his cocktail hour performance, and when our late arrival to the reception compacted the schedule, he managed the timeline smoothly. We would enthusiastically recommend him to anyone!

I hired Brad to sing some Frank Sinatra songs for my Mother. He showed up on time ( early in fact) and was a hit! Brad was very engaging and full of personality and professionalism!

He did an excellent job. Extremely professional and respectful of us and the people around us since this was in a public location. His performance was awesome and gis personal appearance was excellent also. What we expected and much more! We’re considering having him again for a longer event. Thank you, gigsalad, for
making everything, from booking to communication extremely easy. Thanks!

Brad has such a classic smooth sound, ladies love his looks and he is truly passionate about keeping this Era of music alive. He is a Home Run at any event!

Brad provided jazzy music/singing for a special birthday event. He performed songs with talent, was good with our crowd, and just overall, great job!

A true professional, talented, warm and engaging. We look forward to having Brad back, or seeing him sing at any of his events. A terrific singer and a terrific person.

My parents truly enjoyed Brad. Happy I was able to hire him and have him perform for my parents 40th anniversary dinner!

Brad was communicative, easy to work with and flexible. His debonair performance created ambiance. We and our guests completely enjoyed his classic entertainment style and timeless song selection.

Highly recommend Brad! Second time he sang for our Veterans group.

Can’t say enough about how great Brad is!! Awesome guy and performance was spot on. Highly recommend.

Brad is a warm and friendly performer who has a wide spectrum of music from the 40s, 50s, 60s, and 70s.

Brad is worth every penny he costs. He will add such an elegance and romantic ambiance to your event. If you spend any money on live music make sure it’s on Brad. He sang during our cocktail hour and dinner at my wedding in late September and I still have people telling me how much they enjoyed him. He is so easy to work with, has an amazing voice and looks dashing in a tux. I 100% recommend Brad Ackland!!!

He was amazing!!!!

We will definitely hire Brad again. He was amazing. Great voice and presence. He is also very flexible and good with the crowd.

Brad showed up early, was very professional, and everyone loved the performance. He was very personable, engaging a multi-generational audience, ranging from teenagers to age 90. He had a wide variety of song selections available and took requests. Brad was the perfect choice for our event.

I Hired Brad for our Wedding because my Wife wanted a Band and I wanted someone that could sing the classics like Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra. Well to say we got that is an understatement. Brad not only went out of his way to help us with the date changes of Covid-19 in 2020 he also rewrote a song we wanted as “our song” for the Wedding to make it favor a young couple. He was on time and was an amazing addition to our reception! He has one of the best voices I have heard and our guest were greatly impressed with his performance. If you are looking for a great Wedding Crooner, he is your only option!

Fyi: I am in the Wedding and Events Industry so leaving a review and telling you good vendors are hard to find and this is a Great one, take my word for it :)

Brad Ackland was a special guest soloist for the "Young at Heart" Senior Adults of Highland Terrace Baptist Church, on October 21, 2020. He crooned his way into our hearts with songs like, "Unforgettable" and closed with the classic, "New York, New York." Singing the crowds requests revealed his vast repertoire of songs and the talent to sing a wide variety of crowd pleasers.

Brad absolutely MADE my mom's birthday! He is completely charming, gorgeous AND he is an extremely talented singer! We will be hiring Brad again for our next party. What a nice and professional guy.. I highly recommend Brad!

Once again Brad exceeded all expectations and made for a really fun time for all!!!

Brad has a wonderful voice! So many at our party commented about how much they enjoyed his performance Brad is easy to work with and very professional

We loved Brad!! Absolutely made the party!!

Brad Ackland provided a wonderful performance that was a mix of oldies and Christmas Carols for our December Monthly Luncheon. The music was fantastic, he interacted with the crowd and left the group wanting more. Thank you for a memorable event!

What a professional performance! So many compliments of Brads performance.. I would definitely recommend him for any event.

Working with Brad was a wonderful experience. He was extremely flexible with the requirements of our event. We used Brad as the entertainment for our 10th annual client Christmas party and he performed two nights for over 500 of our clients. We heard nothing but positive feedback from our clients. We are already planning the next event to use Brad again. My entire staff agrees that Brad was the best entertainment we've had at our events in the last 10 years! You cannot go wrong with Brad! I would highly recommend him.

Brad was such an excellent addition to our Surprise birthday party for my Mom. He is a class act and the total package! He arrived promptly dressed to the nines and serenaded our guests with his incredible voice. He graciously took requests and photos! He far exceeded our hopes and expectations. We will most definitely use Brad again and would recommend him to all! In fact several party guests requested his business card for future events they had in mind! Thank you Brad for being such a charming addition to our celebration!

Brad did a great job.

Brad is an excellent artist
Our guest were extremely happy with him
Highly recommended

Brad did a beyond phenomenal job performing at my Parent’s 50th anniversary party. I’d give more than 5 stars if possible! Perfect voice and experience! Guests are still asking for Brad’s information and cannot stop talking about how wonderful the entertainment was! Brad was great to work with, made the entertainment portion of the party seamless and easy, if only the cake and the rest of the details were so easy and perfect too! I’d have Brad perform anytime and I cannot highly recommend Brad enough! One of the best singers around and I am so glad we used his services, Brad did not disappoint at all whatsoever and made this event the talk of all my Parent’s friends!

Brad is such a professional and a great entertainer. We can’t wait to ask him to come back again.

Brad was a hit at our fundraiser! He is talented, professional, classy, and funny. I received many positive comments about him after the event...many thinking of other opportunities to book him. We are happy to recommend Brad for your next event!!

Brad is amazing! His voice blew us away. Not only that, but he was so kind and polite to absolutely everyone, from ages 2-90. We had so much fun, I can not even put it into words. I can't wait for the next time we get to bring him back for a party. Thank you, Brad, for making mom's 85th birthday one of the best she has ever had!!!!

Brad is a phenomenal performer. He has amazing professionalism and style. Everyone at my wedding reception had something great to say about him. He put us all completely at ease. I would definitely book him again.

Thanks for a wonderful evening, Brad!

Brad did an excellent job at my mom's 80th birthday party. Very personable and charming, he could sing all the favorites of her days. Took requests on the fly and you would have thought he rehearsed ahead of the gig. Easy to work with on scheduling and logistics. Would highly recommend him!

Wonderful night! Highly enjoyed Brad!

One of the best performers yet. He was fully engaged with the crowd and there were nothing but smiling faces that were singing along. Fantastic!

Brad not only provides a great show but is very personable, professional and interacts extremely well with his audience. He makes the audience part of the show and they are delighted. We would recommend him for any size event. Our organization will hire him again. The communication and follow up was also five star.

Thank you Brad! We couldn’t have asked for a better entertainer! You were great !!!!!!
We had so many compliments about you!
Thank you !!!!

I highly recommend Brad for anyone’s wedding if you’re looking for a talented singer to liven up the mood and create a fun atmosphere at your wedding/event. Brad was so flexible with any changes. We will definitely reach out to him again for any big events we have in the future. Thank you so much Brad!!

Brad was very attentive to us throughout the process of planning our wedding. We chose songs and he played them and he watched our crowd to know what they wanted. He asked gir requests and played them. We were definitely in good hands with Brad. Everyone loved him!

Brad did an amazing job and everyone loved him!! He worked the room and the women were swooning such a great voice !! 😉 would definitely love to have him come back for another event.

Brad was so talented and professional. Everyone loved him and our event was a big success thanks to him!!

Incredible

Brad, it was truly a magical evening for Lisa and me. It was the perfect wedding, and your performance provided a great reception for and with our guests--exceptional singing, dancing, and many great memories. Thank you! Bruce R.

Brad provided an evening of elegance, sophistication, and fun for our wedding party soiree. He added a special touch to our vintage speakeasy theme and was a hit! Guests are still talking about him! Thank you, Brad, for a fabulous evening. You exceeded our highest expectations, and we look forward to seeing you again!

Brad was very personable, and did a great job at the show. He was very engaging and everyone had a great time. He had great charisma and charm as well as a superb voice and act. Highly recommended!,

Brad performed at our client appreciation party we had many many comments from our clients that he was a great Entertainer and they really enjoyed his participation in our event

I cannot say how pleased I am with Brad Ackland. So pleased, in fact, that my event isn’t even finished as I’m writing this review. From the initial booking to his performance tonight, he has been prompt, responsive, professional, and a downright great entertainer! Guests at my party have been raving about him. Even my company’s CEO stopped on her way out to tell me how much she enjoyed him. I am entirely impressed with him and will definitely reach out to him again!

Brad Ackland performed at my daughter's wedding reception this past weekend...He was absolutely amazing!
He entertained our guests with his incredible voice and also served as a DJ. Several of our guests asked how we found such a fantastic performer. We even had an out-of-town guest ask for his information. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an extremely kind individual with amazing talent!!

Perfect entertainment for my parents' anniversary party.

We hired brad for our anniversary . He is amazing . Amazing performance with great voice . We sure recommend him and will definitely will have him in our upcoming parties ... thank you so much for being so prompt and professional

Arrived on time (early) and was set up and singing without any assistance from us. The guests at my mothers 90th birthday party loved the songs and his showmanship. He did everything we expected and more. I would recommend him to anyone and hope to book him again. Perfect performance and so easy to work with.
Thank you Brad you really helped make our party special!

Brad Ackland was absolutely great! He kept the audience engaged and we loved how he interacted with our residents! Highly recommend!

Brad was awesome
Showed up early was very professional. Took requests. He made the birthday party extra special. We would totally recommend him.

Brad Ackland is amazing! I did not want him to stop singing! I hired him for my birthday party and everyone loved him. My girlfriend that was there said we need to have a Christmas party just so we can have him sing again! Hope he's not booked because when the world finds out about Brad Ackland his life is going to change! I can always say - Brad Ackland sang at MY birthday party... THANK YOU Brad for making my birthday one to remember! Cheers! Allison

Brad was easily the highlight of a great day - my mothers 80th birthday we had several activities but Brad coming and singing Frank Sinatra songs brought my mother to tears ! He connected with folks in the room and all around great job !

Brad is such a great entertainer. Would highly recommend him . Very professional, works the crowd with such ease. We had so many positive comments from our guests. He certainly helped us have our 'perfect' night!

Wow - I don't know where to start! I booked Brad for a private serenade for my grandma's 90th birthday. When someone gets to that age, and isn't in the best health, "gifts" are sort of hard to plan. Brad was extremely professional, punctual, flexible and had a great attitude. He is very good at what he does, and when he sings you are always swoon by every song. Not only does he sing, but he provides a sense of humor that everyone enjoys, maybe even a couple of dances. We are already spreading the word about him and looking for the next opportunity to book Brad! On top of it all, I know it is something my grandma will never forget. :) Thanks so much again Brad!!

He was great, very charming and had a nice mix of songs.

We hired Brad to perform for my mother's 80th birthday celebration. It was the best decision. He brought a level of class and professionalism that was beyond words. His voice is incredible and his natural charm won all our guests over - all the ladies (young and old) were smitten!!! Truly outstanding.

Brad is a very talented and charmingly handsome entertainer that won the hearts of our residents one song into his first performance. Brad engages his audience with his amazing voice and kind personality. We were fortunate to have Brad at our facility for several concerts. We were heart broken when he made the big decision to relocate to Texas. Once you book Brad to entertain for you, I promise you will be booking him again and again. He will never disappoint you. He is a true class act performer.

I have been an activity director for many years now and I have seen many entertainers and Brad is absolutely top-notch! He comes dressed to the nines- wearing a suit and tie every single time and always looks the part. When he sings it just makes people happy- the energy in the room is palpable and people get wrapped up in his voice, his style and his charm. He embodies the definition of the classic crooner. I would recommend Brad and sing his praises any day of the week! He is an absolute MUST for any senior living environment!!!

We decided, last minute, to ask Brad Ackland to sing for the reception of our wedding, and we are so thankful we did. He was truly a highlight of the wedding. His voice has an old time- Frank Sinatra-esque sound and guests couldn't get enough of it. All my guests were asking where I found him, and if they could get his contact information. As soon as dinner ended everyone rushed to the dance floor as he sang, Frank Sinatra's, "The Way You Look Tonight." Not only was he perfect at the wedding, but he was also wonderful to work with. He was very patient in meeting with me and going over all the songs I wanted him to sing, etc. I 100% recommend hiring Brad for any event you are hosting. You will not be disappointed!!!

I have been hiring Brad to sing at my skilled nursing facility for the past two years. He is professional, kind, generous and fabulous. His voice is as smooth as silk. I highly recommend Brad for your enjoyment.

We have had Brad out numerous times to our community and he is a great entertainer. His style is very easy and he is very interactive with the residents. He encourages them to sing along and is understanding of their needs. The residents are always asking for him to return. He is professional, always well dressed and his song choices are loved by all. I would highly recommend that you have him for your event. We are sorry that he is leaving but we did manage to book him once more before he leaves.

Brad is a wonderful entertainer. He has a fabulous voice and a charming presence. All our seniors enjoyed his performance.

We hired Brad for a social dinner at our country club and it was the best decision we made for the whole event. He went above and beyond our expectations and there wasn't a single guest who wasn't enthralled by his singing and showmanship. Whether you're hosting a dinner party, a Rat pack themed party or just want a classy singer for an event, Brad is the man to hire. Excellent!!!
