We first became acquainted with Scott when he played for our daughters wedding cocktail hour. He was amazing. He played a variety of songs country, pop, and even a Disney tune for the little nieces to dance to. We hired him again to play at my mom’s 80th birthday. Once again his music got her dancing with her grand children. Our youngest daughter asked to book him the minute she became engaged. He is a pleasure to work with. So professional and easy to get along with. Thank you, Scott!
I booked Scott to do just one song ("Perfect" by Ed Sheeran) in a park in Chicago when I proposed to my girlfriend. I found him to be easy to work with, humble, and a consummate professional. Truth be known, his charge was 15 dollars or so higher than the other bids I received, but after I listened to one of his videos, I was hooked! I would have paid twice that knowing what I know now about Scott! Fantastic singer, great guy. You will not go wrong with him! THANK YOU SCOTT!
I hired Scott for a corporate "Brats, Brews and Blues" event - and he was great! Scott was very quick to respond and was in constant communication to make sure that we were ready for our event. Set-up and sound was perfect and the music was excellent!! He had a very big song selection of all genres. Everyone loved it! I highly recommend Scott and will definitely be using him for our future events.
Scott played my son's second birthday party. It was so much fun (despite the rain). Scott did a great job and played all the songs I requested. He brought little maracas for the kids to play along and also let the kids take some strums on the guitar. All in all a great success and so much fun!
Scott helped me plan a surprise proposal to my girlfriend at North Ave Beach. He had a lot of songs to choose from and suggested some good ones to play. He helped make our day great and I would definitely recommend him to anyone else. Thanks again Scott!
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Thanks Nick. It was a great day and I enjoyed having the chance to play for you and Katie!
I would give Scott 10 stars if I could! He traveled to Michigan to play at our community BBQ. He arrived early and set up with ease. His music was fun and perfect for our guests. He even brought little musical instruments (shakers, tambourines) for the kids to play! All around excellent experience, and we can't wait to book him again for next year's party!
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Chris. Totally enjoyed the party. Great people in your neighborhood. Thanks for having me and also for writing such a nice review.
Love to be invited back do it again next year!
Scott is amazing to perform at our Luau birthday party for our 1st year old girl + 60 guests at our house! We'd definitely would love to invite him back again! Highly recommended.
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Thanks Charlotte. I had a fun time playing for you and Vlad and guests. And having Codrut on piano was just great.
We hired Scott for a 70th birthday party. Scott was very professional, showed up on time, easy to work with via emails and phone. Super nice guy!
He is very talented, knows a lot of good songs from the 70's, 80"s, Country, Jimmy Buffet, Elvis, Beatles, erc. He wrote a beautiful song for my Mother in-law, The song was fun and very touching too, that made her laugh and cried too. She absolutely love her song and so we did too. We had a lot of compliments from our guest too. I would hire Scott Hamilton in a second for my next event. No regrets!! Scott is almost a 6 star performer!

Thanks for this. Great time at your party. Guests were so much fun!
Scott was awesome!!
Had Scott play at our community block party and he was great! He played songs I requested and even learned one he didn't know. I got at least 5 comments from attendees saying he is so good. Where did you find him, etc?
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Thanks Robert!! Your group was a lot of fun. Especially Louie the grill man!
Scott did a great job singing/playing favorites of our audience and was also very helpful in hosting an "open mic" where others played as well. Great feedback on Scott from our audience members who found him very personable and entertaining!
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Thanks. I had a ball and enjoyed hearing you and your guests singing.
Scott and his friends performed for my charity event and all I can say is WOW! They had great old and new songs that all the guests knew and they sounded amazing! If you're thinking about hiring Scott for your event I would highly recommend him!
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Thanks Kristen. We had a ball!
Scott is awesome! Had him for a rehearsal cocktail party ( 100+ people). I did not carve out a dance floor but by the middle of the evening, people had created one right in front of him! He is a great talent, but just as important, he is warm, very professional, and genuinely happy to entertain the crowd. Worth way more than he charges!!!!
From the moment we booked Scott, we knew we were in for a fun night - and he delivered in every way possible. From the interaction with our group, to learning a couple of special songs for the birthday girl, to providing additional microphones and instruments for our group to enjoy - this was once amazing event. Every guest was impressed with Scott and we would highly recommend him for any event.
Scott was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. Professional, talented and thoughtful. Scott learned a favorite Beatles song of my parents to help them celebrate their birthdays - it was truly a special moment.
Response from Scott Hamilton:
Thanks Kate. Playing for you and your family was a lot of fun!!!
I hired Scott to sing my now fiances (she said yes!) and my song from high school right before I got down on one knee. It was all a surprise and he was perfectly set up and sang our song beautifully!
