Jon Manness is a true professional and extremely talented. We hired him to play some original music for a Game Show and he delivered every step of the way. He was very easy to work with, showed up on time and with a great attitude. We loved hearing his music and he truly added to the success and fun of our shoot. Would highly recommend hiring Jon for any event, big or small. I hope to bring him back again on many more shows and maybe even a wedding!
I had a difficult gig to fill for my engagement. Jon was enthusiastic in his participation and great in execution. Even when some obstacles came up and the event seemed to be ruined by uncontrollable circumstances Jon worked with me and helped me to pull off my surprise engagement. He playing was fantastic and it was all under very short notice. My now fiance' is over the moon thrilled and we couldnt be happier with how the night turned out.
