Glen Roethel. Best Acoustic Guitar, Vocal, Ukulele

Glen played at our surprise birthday party this weekend at the Preakness Country Club with a small group of friends and family. He came prepared to play all the types of music that we requested. He is a talented guitarist along with a complimentary voice. He was easy to work with ahead of event in planning the music played. I highly recommend Glen Roethel play at your next event.

Couldn’t have been a more perfect evening. Glen was an absolute rockstar. He performed my girlfriend’s favorite song right before I proposed to her and it was the most memorable evening. Glen was extremely accommodating and top-rated for a reason. Can’t wait to work with him again!

I really can’t say enough about Glen. We booked him for our wedding in Philadelphia and he just completely set the tone of the event. All night (and in the days after the wedding) guests kept commenting on and complimenting his performance. The music was beautiful but unobtrusive to the wedding events - he totally read the room and just got the vibe of what would be best in the moment. He really seemed to play seamlessly for six hours - I never even noticed when he put on recorded tracks to take breaks.

Prior to our wedding, Glen was wonderful as well. He was super communicative, without emailing or calling everyday. We only ever spoke on the phone or over email before the event, but I felt like he totally understood what we wanted and I had complete confidence that he would pull through on all of our requests. He totally did.

Two days before our wedding, the COVID restrictions in Philadelphia changed drastically, and Glen was completely prepared. He chatted with me about options we had and kind of uprooted our plan at the very last minute without even hesitating. His ability and willingness to change is so huge and made everything go smoothly. It all worked out, and I think it could have gone very differently, or at least been extremely stressful, had we worked with another musician who was unable to be so accommodating to the circumstance.

And lastly, his talent! Such a beautiful voice and so skilled at his craft. My family and I were just blown away by how wonderful he was. I would love to book Glen again in the future for truly any event. I would recommend him to anyone- I really feel like you can book Glen and be completely worry free about the music for whatever you’re planning. Thank you so much, Glen!

We’ll definitely hire Glen again

Glen was perfect for my micro wedding. He sings well and plays amazingly. Big plus how nice he is and easy to work with.

Glen was very cool to work with. He made contact when necessary and was very detailed oriented. Voice was smooth, he sang Married Me by Train as my wife walked the aisle. Great work.

We recently had Glen over for an anniversary party. He is a talented performer and an excellent personality. He can read the space and play the crowd well. I would highly recommend him!

Glen was absolutely flawless playing for a Zoom graduation of masters students. The students, parents, faculty and staff all loved him. I would highly recommend Glen for any event.

The guests at our annual holiday party loved Glen! Very easy to work with, could play any song requested. We had wonderful time. Thank you Glen!

Glen was awesome and made our wedding night very enjoyable. Great singer and guitar player- we received a lot of compliments regarding him from our guests.

Had Glen at my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour last night, July 20, 2019. Wow, wow, wow... Completely satisfied from first contact through GigSalad, through our final handshake at the end of the cocktail hour. Glen will make your event one to remember. Thank you, GigSalad, and Glen most of all. Sincerely ..... Mr & Mrs Chillianis

Glen made a good impression on the guests. He is good and his choice of music is superb. I will recommend him to my friends. Thank you, Glen, for your performance. We couldn’t have chosen a better one.

A good friend of mine (a NY Sports fan) turned 60, but I (a Boston sports fan) was not able to attend his surprise party. I hired Glen to extend my good wishes to my friend in the form a sports related satirical song to the tune of "Please Come to Boston" that trashed my friends sports' teams. Immediately following Glen's performance, I was flooded with texts and phone calls from those at the party absolutely beaming about the gift.

I was later able to see a video of the performance on social media, and it was clear from the crowd reaction, and the look on the honoree's face, that Glen was a huge hit!

Many thanks, Glen!

My friends can not stop talking about how awesome Glen was. Everyone had a great time! Glen made my Beatles themed party a huge hit.

Glen played at my parents surprise wedding anniversary and he was incredible! His voice and songs were perfect and he was so happy and friendly. He was such a good sport when my dad sang with him and everyone kept saying how incredible he was! Thank you Glen!!!

Glen played at my husband’s birthday party last night and was fantastic! Everyone - including other customers not in our party and the manager of the restaurant - was complimenting him and asking for his contact information. Glen was very easy to work with as well and played the music we asked for. Overall so happy with this experience and would highly recommend Glen to anyone!

We were thrilled with Glen’s entertainment. All of our guests enjoyed his music. Thanks Glen for adding so much to our festive celebration.

Glen was AWESOME!
1) easy presence — very nice personality to have around during an intimate evening (we had 16 very close friends at our party)
2) read the vibe of the party and played music that fit
3) terrific voice and repertoire
4) incredibly accommodating to suggestions, sing alongs, duets, etc.
I have hired performers before but no one compared to Glen. You can’t go wrong

Glenn did an amazing job!! So glad we booked him.

We had a small relaxed party for my fiancés 30th birthday and glen was the icing on the cake for the event. He read the crowd perfectly and played every song we love and wanted to hear! I even asked him to learn and play a song that he has never sung before as it is one of my fiancés all time favorites.. he nailed it! Thank you so much glen!

My husband and I both loved Glenn’s performance at our wedding day.

Glenn is very nice and easy to work with. We communicated via GigSalad messages regularly and had a phone conversation prior to the day because Glenn wanted to make sure he got everything right. We asked Glenn to make a few announcements for us since we didn’t hire a DJ due to a small and simple wedding theme. Glenn was very cooperative.

We provided Glenn with a sample list of songs that we like and he sang all of the songs that happened to be our favorites.

We’d recommend Glenn for any event that you’d need someone to entertain and sing some beautiful songs for your special day.

Glen performed at my wedding ceremony and cocktail hour yesterday, and he was amazing. He performed several songs on the ukulele, with and without vocals for a beach ceremony, and he performed on both the ukulele and guitar with vocals for the cocktail hour. His performance was absolutely amazing. My wife and I were thrilled, and many of our guests inquired about Glen, complimenting him. He was truly a pleasure to work throughout the entire process, and I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking for a ukulele player, guitarist, singer, or any of the other talents that he performs. Thank you so much Glen. You helped make our special day extra special.

We found Glen through GigSalad.com. After reviewing his demo videos and bio, we felt he would be a great fit and addition to our event.
Glen was very professional, answered all pre-party questions and made the experience easy and enjoyable. He arrived on time, and took song requests.
The addition of Glen's performance to our party really brought our event together. Incredible wide range of songs and requests with a clean, crisp sound. Glen was very receptive to playing duets with party guests which really engaged the audience.
All of our guests commented on how fabulous Glen's performance was and we highly recommend him.

In addition to being a great musician, Glen was a pleasure to work with and sing with. He brought a warm and positive vibe to the whole celebration.

Worked great with what I had planned. Accommodated a few last minute changes

Glen was the perfect addition to my husband's 50th birthday party! Glen was easy to work at every step of the process and blew us all away with his undeniable talent. He created the perfect atmosphere for a night of dancing and impromptu singalongs. Thank you Glen! Can't wait to do it again. Your newest fan, Carie

We hired Glen for my son's first birthday party with a musical theme and he did such a fabulous job! The babies and adults were rocking out the entire time, and we will definitely use him again!

Glen’s performance was impeccable. His vibe fit in perfectly with our event and played flawlessly over the course of the event. We received numerous complements on finding such a skilled artist from the attendees. Glen was able to make our day truly special in a very supportive way and managed to help carry the event without front staging it, a truly wonderful skill.
From the first contact through the final hand shake, Glen was honest and set expectations. He asked important questions and customized his playlist to match our event. His arrival was right on time and from the point that he set up till break down he did not leave any gaps. Truly a wonderful musician and a stellar performer, I would highly recommend him for anyone that is looking for a live musician at their event.

Thank You Glen!

Glen was very professional, and he did a fabulous job! Almost all of my guests commented about the music, and they wanted to know how I found him. My communication with him was really simple, which was valuable as I planned the party. He was totally no drama as a performer--he showed up; he wowed the audience, and he cleaned-up. Fabulous! Also, I gave him just a list of artists we liked, and his music set was perfect.

Glen did not live up to my expectations, he exceeded them 1000%. He was on time, he became part of the group right away. He has a great voice and plays the guitar fantastically. He played so many of my requested songs it was amazing even though I had only given him the list a week prior to the event. He let us sing with him and was just super easy going and so much fun. Thanks a lot for creating an everlasting memory, Glen!

I hired Glen for my local wedding celebration, and he was perfect! Great energy and song selection! Would certainly recommend him!

Glen was great. He really engaged with our guests taking requests and playing the perfect mix of music. Very professional and was a pleasure to work with.

Glen was gracious and warm to me and my guests. He is super talented and his performance was just what I wanted.

I would absolutely recommend Glen to anyone looking to hire a musician for their event. His playing / singing were spot on, his interaction with our guests was phenomenal, and most importantly - he was genuinely happy performing... this truly does make the difference. We truly do appreciate him making our day go from special, to spectacular.
