Seth was so great, easy to work with, friendly and very talented. We hired him 3 days before we got married in a little chapel to add that magical touch. My guest raved about him, he played Michael Bublé and added some old Hymns per our request while guest were being seated. Just a very cool vibe. He learned a Chris Stapleton song that I wanted for me to walk down the isle and additionally has a number of songs to choose from. I will absolutely hire him again.

Seth is an amazing performer. Several people asked for his contact information and we are looking for another reason to have a party and book him! Thank you so much Seth!
Wedding Singer
Seth was just what we were looking for. It was an unusual event we had proposed to him, someone who could be versatile depending on the mood of our team when he came in. He started right away with some popular chill songs. He didn't push people to make request but he was inviting. When there wasn't request he became a soothing background noise that allowed everyone to just take a deep breath!! Thank you Seth!!! I assure you, we will be reaching out again!

We hired Seth to perform "easy listening" type music for a small corporate dinner, and he was so patient and flexible throughout the planning process as corporate events have a lot of hoops to jump through. He listened to feedback about the musical taste for the evening and received great reviews from our GM, who cares a great deal about entertainment for our clients. We would absolutely recommend him.

Thank you for the great review, Katherine! It was a great experience to share my music with y'all.
We chose Seth based on the reviews we read. They were all positive, reassuring and true. He was professional, very communicative, flexible and easy to talk to and work with.. His voice is so calming and soothing and yet fun too for the dancing part . He was the perfect pick for our daughter’a college graduation party. I would hire him again. Thanks Seth.

Thank you for the wonderful review. It was a blast helping celebrate your daughters special day! Congrats!
Seth did a beautiful acoustic solo performance for our wedding ceremony. His voice is that of fullness confidence and grace. I can’t image our prefect wedding day without his vocal vibrance and his professional ability to learn a new song specific for our wedding and flexibility at the last minute. Seth is a stellar choice for any event in need of a singer! He was very communicative and open before the event and he was certainly a highlight during the ceremony; I loved that we could spotlight our love for music and our commitment to each other with his vocal contribution.

Thank you for the outstanding review. The wedding was absolutely beautiful, thankful to help you both celebrate your new life together!
Seth has been a wonderful friend for several years. My wife and I had the pleasure of asking Seth to perform worship during our wedding ceremony. Seth is a kind, thoughtful, client-focus performer. He was flexible with different songs we wanted to play, making sure he played the right arrangements and verses of the songs we desired for our wedding ceremony. Seth was kind and collaborated well with our wedding vendors to make sure everything went smoothly. On top of all that Seth has a wonderful sense of humor and really knows how to bright up the room. Seth would be a wonderful performer to have as part of your wedding day! My wife and I can not recommend Seth enough!

Seth Johnston played my birthday party this weekend and we had rave reviews from our guests!
I chose Seth because of his singing voice & how nice he was in his initial message. That first impression carried through to a great event. Seth listened to my music needs and put together a list of songs that set the perfect mood - both relaxed and fun! Seth played contemporary and classic pop songs. He turned it up for dancing during the second half of the party.
Seth was flexible to the party needs and a great communicator before and during the event. Would definitely recommend Seth!

I’ve had the privilege of working with Seth in a variety of both secular and worship settings - from solo to group performances; from singer to Worship Leader in a larger church setting. It is a joy to hear him perform and his calming yet upbeat personality is contagious. Moreover, he backs up his strong musical talents with a true heart for God.

About
Ever since he was a kid, Seth has been involved in multiple musical and performing outlets. In elementary school, he sang in choir and was the lead in the musical. Throughout middle school and high school, Seth participated in over 10 musicals as leads, sang in choir for 7 years, and performed as part of a vocal jazz ensemble. Post high school, he went on to major in Vocal Music Education and graduated with his B.S. from Texas A&M University - Commerce. While there, he maintained a 4.0 GPA, performed in multiple elite ensembles, and minored in piano.
Once Seth completed his formal education, his performing career continued. In 2016, Seth had the opportunity to play Joseph in MSM ( McKinney Summer Musical's) production of Joseph and the AMAZING Technicolored Dreamcoat. He also was hired as a worship leader/pastor in (phone number hidden)8 at his home church, where he lead worship every Sunday. During his time there, Seth helped prepare and lead 5 large scale Christmas music events, that included full orchestra, choir, and band. In addition, Seth lead worship for multiple different bible studies, singing and then teaching from the bible. He also taught voice and guitar lessons while managing a School of the Arts through the same church.
When it comes to traveling and performing, Seth is no rookie. He has performed solo and group pieces in over 4 countries outside the USA (Spain, Germany, France, and Brazil), and still frequents France and Spain as a musician. His broad experience globally has increased Seth's cultural understanding and given him a different, stronger appreciation for the power of music, as he has seen it transcend language and cultural barriers alike.
Currently, Seth is in school in hopes to become a Physicians Assistant. Since music classes do not count as prerequisites for the medical field, he is currently enrolled at Collin College, completing any and all prerequisites needed for the PA programs. Seth works as a substitute in multiple school districts while playing gigs (filling in for worship leaders and playing parties) to supplement income. He still teaches privately, and loves to pass on his knowledge of music. In his free time, Seth enjoys spending time with friends, meeting new people, playing any kind of sport (but mostly Ultimate), leading bible studies, and volunteering at church.
