Ryan DeSiato

Ryan performed at our ranch under the stars and knocked it out of the park with his original songs and masterful guitar playing. He was professional, on time and exceeded our expectations.

Ryan was a fantastic addition to our evening event. He was prompt, great communicator in advance and his music was wonderful.

Ryan was prompt, professional and did a fantastic job reading the crowd for our hotel event. Our guests were thankful for the entertainment and the kids also enjoyed the music!

Ryan was fantastic and very professional. He was great with all communication and easy to work with! If you are looking for a talented, professional, and fun musician, we would HIGHLY recommend him.

He was amazing! He created the perfect atmosphere for the event and was so personable and easy to work with. Would hands down have him at another event!

We needed a guitarist for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We needed someone who could play two specific songs and he delivered. Not only is he a great musician but he checked on us leading up to the wedding. We highly recommend. Best decision ever!!

Ryan did a great job. He showed up early, set up and played what we asked seamlessly. I honestly didn’t have to think about him performing at all, which was great had enough going on the day of our wedding. Thanks Ryan!

Ryan was great to work with, we liked him a lot. He worked hard getting the music we wanted and was even willing to learn new songs. He was professional & super friendly throughout the entire process. Use him, seriously!

Ryan was professional and quick to respond from the start thru the conclusion of the event! We had him perform for our welcome reception event for an International crowd, and he found the perfect balance of background guitar and vocal performances that enhanced the event and never felt intrusive. His set up was well thought out and allowed him to make adjustments to audio levels efficiently and discretely. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

Professional, punctual, excellent communication, beautiful music, and an all around class act! From the day of the booking to the end of the wedding ceremony Ryan was on top of his game. If I could give 10 stars I would!

Ryan was awesome as usual! Did an amazing job at our wedding including an improv ‘Wheels on the Bus’ version with my 4 year old nephew.

Ryan did a great job for us and we would book him again. His music and voice were perfect for our occasion.

We loved Ryan! He played for our dinner party and was perfect. We hope to enjoy his music again in the future.

Ryan plays beautifully and is accommodating to the group's needs. We had few people (pandemic) and he modified his set to perfection for us. Gracious and friendly and professional. Highly recommend!

Ryan played during our wedding reception dinner and the guests loved him! He played the perfect songs and the evening went so well!

Ryan did a great job at our Rehearsal Dinner. He even stepped in to save the day when our microphone for the toasts died. Super easy to work with. Many thanks to Ryan.

Ryan was great!

He arrived early and really catered his set, which was amazing by the way, to our guests.
What I think really topped off the event for me is that after his set was over, Ryan took the time to chat with our residents.

I would definitely recommend Ryan to anyone that asked.

Ryan was great! He was prompt, professional and kept the event filled with really great music. We would easily book him for another event with no hesitation :)

Beautiful music.

We got married at Chapel Dulcinea and had a guest list of 50 people. We had ideas that Ryan was able to easily execute and he communicated effectively with me multiple times prior to the wedding to ensure he knew just what to do. I would highly recommend Ryan if you are planning an event. I loved the outcome! Best wishes for whatever you are planning with Ryan. I hope this finalizes you’re decision.

I have worked with Ryan for several events this year, and he always provides a wonderful atmosphere to each event, and it's been different every time. He enjoys what he does, and is very responsive to meet needs quickly. We will continue to use his services.
If you are considering a musician for your event go with Ryan!

Ryan arrived early and was completely self-sufficient in setting up, which was so helpful because I was running around making sure all the last minute details came together for our wine tasting event. Ryan was also very responsive to emails prior to the event. He is professional, friendly and talented. The music volume was perfect. People could hear the music but never had to shout in conversation. Our guests were impressed by his playing, and we received several compliments about the ambiance he helped to create. They said our event felt classy and relaxing, which was exactly our aim. We would have him play for us again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Ryan!

Ryan was so easy to work with. Quick responses and gave us exactly what we asked for. Very professional. Our members thoroughly enjoyed his music. So enjoyable! Very much recommend booking Ryan for your event!

!

Ryan played for my father's funeral. We were going through a grieving process while also dealing with the flu and bronchitis so it was reassuring to us that he took the lead and picked out the music. The performance was beautiful and provided the calm meditative atmosphere we needed during the service.

We had a corporate event for several hundred people. Ryan took calls ahead of time and was just perfect on-site. Got exactly what we were looking for!

Ryan played the perfect music for our venue and painstakingly took the time to gauge the ambiance/setting and what music would be best. Super nice guy and very gracious - it was an absolute pleasure and everyone Loved his performance!

From start to finish, Ryan was constantly assuring me of his ability to meet my needs, even when I came back with more questions. He was incredibly responsive and professional the entire time leading up to, during and after the event.
We would definitely book Ryan again for other events!

Ryan was more then I could have wished for... talented and professional. My guests told me that he was the perfect touch to my FIESTA. I will be booking him for future parties at my office as well.

Ryan is amazing! He’s come back to Dallas several times to play for our office event and we will hire him again!!

Ryan did a great job for our reception. His wonderful background guitar music was the perfect addition to our cocktail reception.

I hired Ryan to play at our ribbon cutting ceremony and he was great! He was very communicative throughout the process leading up to the event, showed up on time, quick setup, super accommodating, plays beautifully and I received a lot of positive comments from guests about him. I highly recommend him and will definitely be hiring him again for our future events.

I booked Ryan to perform during the cocktail hour of my wedding. He showed up early, dressed and acted very professionally, and played a killer set! He was very flexible--we were originally going to have him set up outside but rain forced us to move the equipment inside and he was totally accommodating. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great singer/guitarist/songwriter to play at their event!

I would definitely hire him again.

Ryan was fabulous. The music was lovely and suited the occasion perfectly. Thank you!

Great voice

Ryan played the background music for my parents' 50th anniversary party. He was early, dressed nicely, very flexible, accommodating, gracious, and extremely talented! I highly recommend him for any occasion!

Ryan is a highly talented artist. All of our guests including children adored his musical style. He was also highly communicative and detail oriented ensuring that a unique experience was had by all. I would absolutely recommend him for any gig.

I don't know how Ryan can play the guitar with a cell phone duct taped to his hand, but he must manage, because I swear that phone was never away from him in the nine months leading up to my wedding. Any time I had a question or a concern, and sent him a message, I was getting a response within sixty seconds, sometimes before I had even set my phone back down on the desk. He was by far the most prompt of all my vendors in ever responding to me, always with an immediate and clearly understood answer, one of my very few vendors who seems to understand that it's not enough to just be good at what you do, but that a bride needs you to be in easy reach for communication to set her worried, frazzled mind at ease.

When the day came, Ryan was the vendor I was stressing over the least. Even though we'd never met in person, his incredible responsiveness over the past several months meant I knew I could trust him to show up on time, follow the instructions, and play the music I'd asked him to. As the bride and therefore last in the building, I barely got to hear any of it, but all of my guests complimented me on the beautiful music and I know he did a good job. I'm so happy that I chose him and count myself lucky that he was part of the day.

We couldn't have asked for a more perfect guitarist for our wedding day! Not only is Ryan a super talented performer, he is an all-around wonderful person. Truly. He is easy to work with, professional, personable, communicative AND he saved the day on multiple occasions throughout the night. Just one example - the lapel mic we had rented for our officiant wasn't working properly right before the ceremony and Ryan stepped in and worked quickly to get it set up just in time. He instantly made us feel at ease throughout the whole planning process and worked with us to set the perfect mood we had envisioned for the day. He was even kind enough to learn a few songs that we had our hearts set on and he played them beautifully. I highly recommend him! Thank you so much Ryan :)

I booked Ryan for a tri-annual event at my workplace and I could not have been happier with my experience. He was easy to book with, showed up an hour early for the event and played beautifully! Thank you Ryan!

Ryan was amazing - he showed up and set up early. He read the vibe of the room for our company holiday party and people LOVED it.

Ryan could not have been better. He played instrumental guitar for our intimate cocktail reception (30 people). He goes with the flow and is extremely easy to work with. His music provided the perfect texture for our casual but top-end event.

Ryan was seriously such an amazing addition to my wedding! His music was beautiful, and everybody enjoyed it. His relaxed and positive attitude made him a joy to work with.

Ryan was very professional. He promptly made contact. He showed up two hours early to prepare. We had drizzling conditions as the outdoor party began, and amid weather stress, Ryan was calm, kind and flexible, setting up multiple times. He has a beautiful voice and read the crowd's desires well and can handle anything.

We hired Ryan for a grand opening event and he did not disappoint! Very professional, responsive, personable and an amazing musician. Truly a top notch guy! We highly recommend Ryan for your next event and we look forward to working with him in the future!

Ryan you did an exceptional job playing for our wedding/cocktail hours. Thank you for working with the set up accommodations, I know there was some issues with space and I am glad you were able to work with that. Our guests loved, loved, loved your music. I was receiving comments for days. I would love to come see you in Austin for your performances, I did not get enough of you :-)
Thank you for your outstanding professionalism and exceptional music.

Thanks so much Ryan, your presence at the party was awesome and the music was so much fun to dance to! Thanks for your performance, you're very talented.

Ryan performed at our daughter's wedding and he was fantastic! He is a true professional who added that extra spark to the event.

Perkins + Will hired Ryan to play our Austin Office Open House in early May 2017. He was communicative, showed up early, had his own equipment, and played wonderfully. We asked him to play instrumentals in the rock/blues genre as background music and he hit the spot! I hope there are more events we can call Ryan for. Will hire again in a heartbeat!

Ryan played at my wedding and the whole experience was absolutely perfect. From his communication, his easy manner and calming presence in the midst of my not knowing what I wanted for music, he made it all come together and it couldn't have been more perfect. He is a brilliant musician and I am still receiving compliments from my guests on his music.

Ryan was excellent at our office's Open House on May 9th. He set a great tone for our party. I'm hoping we get to host other in-house events so we have opportunities to work with Ryan again.

Ryan played at our Music Festival April 28th 2017. His performance was outstanding and everybody that attended could not say enough good things about his music and his manners. We will most certainly have Ryan back to perform for us. I cannot stress enough that if you get the opportunity to see this young man perform live you must not miss him. Thank you Ryan for an outstanding performance and your professionalism.Live Oak Resort

I cannot say enough about Ryan DeSiato. Our wedding guests were impressed by his unassuming manner and outstanding performance creating a serene atmosphere for a beautiful riverside wedding. He communicated regularly with our family before the big event and arrived promptly 2 hours before the ceremony to ensure all would go smoothly. I guess you could say he "hit all the right notes". Thank you, Ryan.

Ryan was amazing and so easy to work with! He knew exactly what to play and was very "in tune" to our guests and what the vibe was at our event! We would definitely use him again for any and all events we do in the future!

Ryan's talent is exceptional. He played at our wedding and was just awesome. Ryan's ability to connect with the officiator of our wedding and the timing on all the different stages of the wedding made the whole event flow seamlessly.
The entire feeling and flow of the wedding is pivotal on the guitarist and Ryan made it perfect.
All of the guests were so impressed with Ryan's playing and singing talent. Ryan really made the wedding perfect.

Ryan was great! He is such a cool chill guy! He is really passionate about making sure your day is exactly they way you envisioned! He was very good at communicating with my husband and I through out the whole process and was always available and flexible with hours when we had questions for him. Also recommended him to a friend and she has booked him for her wedding as well. I would highly recommend him for any and all occasions!

Ryan was awesome. I gave him a list of my husband's favorite songs and Ryan played them during my husband's 40th surprise birthday party. He was a pleasure to work with in every way. Thank you Ryan! -M

There are just not enough words to express how amazing Ryan DeSiato is! From the get go, he was enthusiastic to work with, and a complete professional that completely put my mind at ease knowing I had picked the most perfect guitarist for my wedding at Chapel Dulcinea! Having never been married before, I had no idea how to even start on the music for such a rustic setting...and may I say outdoors! As soon as I posted for a guitarist, Ryan responded timely, was familiar with the venue and already knew what logistics were needed to be addressed! Once I saw his website and listened to him sing...MUST I SAY MORE?? Beautiful, deep voice...fantastic acoustic guitar work. The weeks leading up to the event were concerning to say the least, as a HUGE thunderstorm was predicted and lots o'Texas lighting!! Ryan keep vigil on weather reports with me and all I had to give him were the main songs for the walk down the aisle, he took care of the rest! I had musicians among my guest and they just loved his voice!! Ryan is responsive, talented, organized and just FANTASTIC to work with!!! Thank you for helping make my day so special Ryan!

Thanks for the great night at Threadgill's, Ryan! A perfect fit for my corporate offsite dinner!

I could not have asked for a more perfect musician. The utmost professional, Ryan DeSiato was a dream to work with: punctual, easy to contact, prepared, and the music was absolutely beautiful. He has a great repertoire and was open to working with me if I had a modern song in mind. Ryan easily made music the least stressful part of planning my wedding. I would recommend him to everyone I know.

Ryan did a wonderful job with our wedding. He showed up early and even helped decorate our chapel as we were having trouble getting everything done. He is incredibly talented as a musician and played such beautiful music for the entire thing. Our guests loved him and his music made the evening a classy and elegant success! Very highly recommend.

Ryan was awesome

Ryan was prompt, extremely professional, and a wonderful talent. He entertained our cocktail reception at the JW Marriott Downtown Austin - and was able to read the crowd to suit our group. I was so impressed that I passed his number to other groups that were scheduling their events.

Ryan is a very talented guitarist that played for about 2 hours during our trade show reception. He played background acoustic guitar music that sounded awesome. He knew exactly what style of music to play for the type of environment we had. We couldn't have been more pleased.

Such a wonderful addition to our wedding ceremony at a beautiful chapel!!

We cannot even say enough kind words to begin to compliment Ryan DeSiato. Ryan played at our wedding and we could not be happier that he was such a special part of our day. Not only is he incredibly talented, he is a class-act and extremely kind and professional. From the moment that I contacted him and began working with him, he was so precise in getting every detail exactly as we wanted. He went above and beyond to make sure our day was extra special. He was the "icing on the cake" and added so much beauty to our ceremony. When he played and sang, it literally brought joyful tears to everyone's eyes and hearts. Thank Ryan, from the bottom of our hearts for all that you did for me and Chad. You are truly so talented and I wish all the many, many blessings and all the success in the world, that you deserve, in your future. Thanks so very much!!!

Ryan DeSatio did an amazing job for us at our recent client event in Austin. He paid attention to every detail I provided, understood the objectives of the event and created an ambiance for the guests with his amazing voice and guitar expertise that helped created a very successful event for our client. His music is beautiful and he switches from instrumental to vocal to match the 'mood' of the moment. The client and their guests were thrilled with our choice of entertainer and I was thrilled with Ryan's voice, charm, people skills and flexibility. He is now at the top of our 'go to' list when searching for an entertainer who will never disappoint! Ryan, you're the best! Thanks so much for making us look good. Diane Smith, CMM - Global Meeting Concepts, Inc.

Ryan came to our event last night and everyone just loved him. He is a super nice guy, polite, carries himself well and a very talented musician. You will not be disappointed. Thank you Ryan.

I just can't say enough about Ryan. My first impression of him was about his customer service skills. He was the most efficient and responsive person I worked with for my event. He never failed to promptly return messages and communicated thoroughly with me. That was such a relief since planning events can sometimes be stressful. But best of all was his talent. It was so enjoyable to listen to him. He knows his way around his great ability and he exhibits it with artistry. He knew just what our crowd needed and he supplied it in full measure. He met my music type requests and his contribution made the whole event just perfect. Believe all these good reviews because they are true. Not only was he a great entertainer, musician and businessman but a genuinely nice guy. I would call him again in a minute if I ever have the need.

You need to really consider this performer for your next event. He is very professional from start to finish. His communication skills are excellent and he is very easy to work with, all that being said he has amazing talent and skills. At my event he made the atmosphere fun and relaxing while vendors sold their goods. Every one loved his music and he was very friendly to everyone. I highly recommend him.

We fell in love with Ryan's music on the website. We chose several of his originals for our most important songs. What I would recommend to anyone considering Ryan for their wedding is to let him express his creative freedom by allowing him to select and play songs throughout the evening. He takes the time to listen to your music preferences and tailors the music accordingly. His style of play is incredible! I consider it an honor to have him participate in our ceremony with strictly his original music. It was perfect and more beautiful than I anticipated. He arrived promptly and worked extremely well with our coordinator to ensure a blemish free evening. Thank you Ryan! I greatly appreciate the magical evening you gave us. I couldn't imagine anything better.

We had to plan our wedding from out of state and coordinated most everything over the phone or through family. From speaking to Ryan I could immediately tell he was professional and was all about catering to his clients. When our big day came, Ryan helped give our reception the atmosphere we wanted. He knows many different genres to play and played a perfect mix of all of our favorite bands and artists. I would highly recommend booking Ryan for any event you may have coming up. He does a fabulous job at what he does.

We booked Ryan to perform as a Valentines surprise for our wives. He was everything we hoped for; a talented and engaging performer that contributed to an incredible night. He had a well thought out song list and happily accommodated requests. He will please with unique soulful versions of familiar classics, but be sure to have him play some of his original material.

We scheduled Ryan for our wedding reception after reading several recommendations and listening to some of his samples. Ryan was super friendly and very accommodating to what we were looking for. My fiancé talked with him several times over the phone so Ryan could get a good sense of our music taste and added several recommendations for specific periods of the night. Overall, great musician and person! Highly recommend!

Ryan is so sweet. He did a Memorial Service for all our families who have lost a loved one. He sat down and gauged the mood of the audience and played accordingly. Our families loved it and kept commenting on his talent. I would recommend him for any occasion. He can read the audience very well. He plays his instruments awesomely and his voice is like an angel singing. In a rating 1 being bad and 10 being the best, he ranks a 20.

Ryan was the perfect addition to our evening! He was very professional and played according to the crowd. Loved it!

Ryan was amazing! I just let him do his thing with a few song suggestions and it was flawless, fun, and I highly HIGHLY recommend him for any occasion where you need musical accompaniment. He played an Elvis love song for my husband and his grandmother and it was the most touching moment. Thank you Ryan

Ryan did a wonderful job of providing excellent atmosphere during a cocktail hour (lots of vocals) and then during dinner (he switched to instrumentals). Ryan is a consummate professional, working with us beforehand to make sure he understood what we were hoping for, and then delivering a high quality performance at the event itself. He is a self-proclaimed perfectionist, which showed in his dependability as well as the quality of his music.

Ryan was also able to handle some last minute adjustments to the arrangements and was very gracious and accommodating. In short, the groom's parents were delighted, but more importantly, the bride and groom remarked repeatedly that they really liked Ryan's music and what he added to the event. We would all highly recommend Ryan for your event. He's excellent!

So pleased with Ryan's music. He puts his heart and soul into his music. Highly recommend him!

Thank you very much Ryan for playing at our wedding. You were a main contribution to make this event a very special moment for us. Thank you for allowing us to sing our song and give us so much confidence at all times. We highly recommend you for such special events because you provide comfort, great performance and great attitude at all times.
Thanks!

I hired Ryan to play guitar for a small gathering / backyard cookout. What a great decision I made! Ryan arived early set up and warm up. We quickly became friends and I knew right away he was going to make the perfect addition to my party! He started out playing some Spanish guitar which was the original plan, as the guests arrived Ryan's music set the tone and kept the party moving. Later we had some fun and one of my guests showed us his drumming talents as he and Ryan has an impromptu jam session. Overall Ryan exceeded all my expectations and I would highly recommend him for any event larde or small! Thanks again Ryan, I hope you enjoyed the home cooked Paella too!!

I booked Ryan because he is so talented, and he was impressive indeed! He played acoustic and electric guitar and ukelele - instrumental pieces and singing as well. He was able to gauge the audience to complement the event, which was a cocktail reception. I really wish I could have had more time to just sit and listen to him. He is really that good! Also, he was extremely easy to work with and eager to please. He is the consummate professional performer. I can't wait to book him again.

Ryan was absolutely fabulous! He was prepared and ready to just "go with the flow." Great guy to work with - so gracious and caring!

The residents truly enjoyed the music Ryan played while visiting and listened. He created the perfect atmosphere/ambiance for our gathering.

He will definitely be coming back to us! Thanks Ryan!! We look forward to having you again.

Ryan played at a gathering of friends, about 40, from the same church. We were all so very pleased with his ability and professionalism. He blended in like an old friend and played like candy for the ears. We hope he'll play for another event of ours another time. We'll done Ryan.

We were more than happy with Ryan for this wedding event. He was amazing and very talented. He went above and beyond with everything even including even the youngest of guests. I would recommend this guy for any event needing music. You won't be disappointed.

Ryan played during the Sacred Marriage Seminar and added a depth to the ministry of the weekend. He was easy to work with and professional and skilled at his performance.

Ryan is a true artist. He takes his craft seriously yet has a huge heart that shows through whether he is speaking or playing guitar. We have been priveleged to have Ryan work with us on a weekly basis. He brings depth, style, creativity, and passion to the mix. In addition, he is easy to work with! We are truly grateful for his involvement and would strongly recommend him to others.

My company has engaged Ryan at many of our events that required a high level of professionalism as well as talent. Ryan is successful in bringing both. He is a talented artist that has an uncanny ability to determine appropriate material for the audience (mood, aesthetic, market appeal). I wholeheartedly recommend him.

Ryan has performed as a gifted guitarist and singer for many events at Redeemer's Hope Church. He not only has a professional attitude and skills, he brings a depth of excellence to the worship. I highly recommend Ryan for any event, venue or personal service.

As an Art Exhibition Producer, I have hired Ryan DeSiato over a dozen times to perform for fund raisers, art shows, and corporate parties in various venues as well as Art Galleries. You will always find him well prepared for just about any vibe (environment). He is early to arrive, set up, even help others. Ryan is polite, courteous to guests and will deliver the best performance! He is the most talented over all guitarist & singer I know! Ryan has an inspiring and gorgeous voice. Everyone falls in love with him.
