I had the amazing pleasure to see a show at Navy Pier. I didn’t even wanna be there, I was tired and exhausted from a tax forum but I tagged along with colleagues and family. Then when I sat and they started playing the next song. All of my bitterness just melted away, their performance was top notch. Honestly the highlight of the day and if I could shout them out more I would! You are were amazing keep it up!
Excellent! There is something for everyone! I used Lake and Luke for a 75th backyard birthday party and all the guests were raving about it. They are talented musicians and were very professional. I highly recommend them and will definitely use them again. They are amazing!
Had them perform at a family reunion and it was just what I was looking for. Great as background music but a lot of people ended up sitting and watching and singing along. They were super responsive and prepared with questions and suggestions to make things go smoothly. Super cool they brought several different instruments to play while they sang. Thanks !
We fortunately had dinner on Navy Pier recently and were lucky to hear Lake and Luke. Wow! They are so talented and we loved their song selection. Will be back in July and August to hear them again. Really wonderful!
I hired Lake and Luke to help me propose to my girlfriend and they did not disappoint! They were extremely patient and accommodating and helped make the moment very special, I can't recommend them enough.
They were the hit of our fundraiser! They are so talented, have a great setlist, amazing energy, and are so easy to work with. We can’t wait to hire them again in the future!
Lake and Luke are fantastic! They are kind, flexible people who have a passion for making people smile through their talent. Their hard work and dedication is evident when you experience their performance. The harmonies are on point and they have amazing chemistry. It’s a joy to watch/hear!
I especially love how great they interact with young children! Lake is a natural and my daughter absolutely loved watching her sing and still talks about her to this day!
They provide something for everyone and can absolutely add that next level of attraction to your next event! Hire them, you will not regret it!
Wonderful performance. Great song selection. Really sweet people! Very flexible with logistics. Overall very very nice experience! Thank you so much!!
I cannot find enough good things to say about Lake and Luke. I was initially considering a lot of other performers with more reviews, professional photos and videos, etc., but Lake and Luke felt right, and if I were to do it again, I would hire them 100 times out of 100. Glad I snagged them before their performance calendar gets packed.
I enlisted Lake and Luke to perform at a surprise proposal to my girlfriend. It involved a *lot* of flexibility and cooperation from them. They learned several songs at my request (some on very short notice, including one actually written by my girlfriend), they arrived in secret, and waited patiently in their places for over 40 minutes for my girlfriend and me to arrive. They even performed a private concert for my parents to entertain them during the wait. And then when the time to perform came, they nailed every song. Beautiful voices, spot-on harmonies, elegant playing, and they created a fantastic atmosphere. My (now-)fiancee is a professional singer, and noted that, in some places, Lake and Luke replaced the song's original harmonies with ones more suited to their sound, which she called "real artistry" that elevated the songs. My fiancee also commented that she couldn't believe how well Lake performed the song my fiancee had written years ago. She got every lyric and melody exactly right. It was clear Lake had worked hard on it. And Luke kindly filmed our dance to the song, even though I did not ask him to.
I'd also add that they were gracious and responsive in every interaction. They had clear communication and showed professionalism in every respect. They arrived on time, were well-dressed, had a polished sound, and were very warm and kind every time I spoke to them. They seem like great people, and it's always good to work with great people. Top marks across the board.
