Courtney was an absolute highlight of an open house event of one of my clients! His professionalism, punctuality, and incredible talent elevated the entire atmosphere, creating a truly sophisticated and enjoyable experience for the guests. His performance was top-notch, seamlessly blending into the ambiance while also captivating everyone in attendance. Courtney’s music added the perfect touch of elegance, and we couldn’t have asked for a better musician to enhance the event. Highly recommend his services for anyone looking to create a memorable and refined experience!

Courtney delivered an amazing performance for us at our son’s rehearsal dinner at Wakefield Country Club. His performance provided the perfect accompaniment to our cocktail hour. The guests loved his set and he could have performed all evening. We can’t wait to book him again at our next event. I recommend him without reservation (10/10)
