Luke was amazing, and so many of our party guests commented on how great his playing was. As it was our office holiday party, we specifically wanted holiday music, and Luke played a great setlist. We look forward to booking him at future events.

We were really glad we chose Luke to play guitar during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Luke was professional, learned a song we requested, and generally wanted to make sure that he could contribute to our special occasion through his music. He played beautifully and we received compliments from several guests about Luke's guitar playing. Thank you, Luke!

Luke was amazing right from my initial inquiry, he addressed all my questions before I even had to ask. He was quick to reply, very professional and easy to work with. I even requested a phone call a few days before and he was happy to hop on to discuss logistics and my vision.
He arrived on time, dressed the part, took up a very small footprint and was fast and quiet in his setup and departure. His music was beautiful and really added a special touch to our wedding. I would highly recommend and would definitely hire him again. Thank you, Luke!

Luke played guitar for my mother's memorial service. As guests entered the chapel, his music set the mood and warmed our hearts. He also agreed to accompany my niece as she performed a song for the program and it felt like they had played together for years even though they had just met! We so appreciated his talent and professionalism along with his conscientious approach.I can't recommend him highly enough!

Luke was very kind and easygoing. He brought a stool and his own setup. The music was perfect. A very talented guitarist and a beautiful guitar that he was playing.

Luke's music was a highlight of my outdoor wedding at Sakura Park in Manhattan. He performed on classical guitar, playing a mix of original and classic songs expertly chosen to accompany the progress of the ceremony. His playing was elegant and stylistically unique, drawing upon jazz, classical, and contemporary genres. Above all, Luke was a joy to work with--professional, responsive, and kind. You will be happy you hired him for your special day!
