I’m so happy we went with him! We had an large community event in 90 DEGREE WEATHER and he kept a smile on his face! He chose the perfect songs to play for a nice summer day. He was super friendly, professional and punctual. We will definitely be reaching out to him again for future events. Thanks so much Tom!
Response from Tom the Guitar Guy:
Thank you so much Hali for including me in your Drug Awareness Event! Had a great time and I'm so happy that everyone in attendance did too!
Tom was a wonderful addition to our party. At our request, he stayed and played a little longer, even on a work night, and toughed it out in the 100 degree weather we had! Highly recommend him for any event!
Tom joined our BBQ potluck celebration of 20 years of Golden Spike FMCA RV adventures. His presentation of our selected songs entertained each and everyone of our 50 attendees! Thank you Tom

I am so glad I found Tom the Guitar Guy. Everyone loved him. He kept the evening lively, played a great variety of music and I had many many people tell me they hope we have him back. Thanks Tom for a great night. You had my hips moving!
Response from Tom the Guitar Guy:
Thank you so much for your kind words! I had a great time as well and I'm looking forward to another opportunity to provide entertainment at another one of your events!
I couldn’t have asked for more! Aside from a soothing voice, strumming talent and knowledge of a vast array of songs, Tom was completely self-sufficient, from equipment and sound, to set-up and take-down; an imperative asset when you’re trying to host an event! I also want to mention Tom’s punctuality and that he played longer than our agreed schedule to suit the timing of our party’s events. Tom you made our milestone event simply better and more memorable. Thank you.
Response from Tom the Guitar Guy:
Thank you for your kind words and for letting me be a part of your special celebration!
Tom was an awesome addition to celebrate our Western Day. He arrived ahead of the event, was professional and personable.
Our residents and staff very much enjoyed his performance and are already asking when he will be back!
Response from Tom the Guitar Guy:
Thank you so much for your kind words Emily! Had a great time and would love to be a part of future events!
My sister and I hired Tom to perform at my Mom's 95th Birthday Party. Tom made the party rock!!! From the very first telephone call to Tom about my Mom's party (and their were several) Tom was always professional and was willing and able to fulfill all of my requests. He was very attentive to the venue and what equipment he would need to bring. He arrived at least two hours prior to the party to set up. As soon as dinner, was over he got the party rocking. No matter what the song request was, Tom delivered. He played my Mom's favorite old time country songs, but also had songs for all ages. He even put one of his guitars over my Mom's shoulder and posed for a picture with her in her Harley jacket. We loved him so much we have hired him for another upcoming event. You cannot go wrong with Tom the Guitar Guy!.
Tom played our holiday party and was fantastic ... on time, low maintenance set up, performs like he does on his web site. Everyone had a great time. We would definitely hire him again!
Response from Tom the Guitar Guy:
Thank you so much for your kind words Bruce! I had a great time as well. Looking forward to the next time!

I play a wide variety of music including Country (old and new), Classic Rock, Oldies and Blues. I also do instrumentals as well.
You can expect me to look professional, arrive on time, and provide you and your guests with some great music, whether it's a low-key intimate engagement party, a fun filled wedding reception or a full on party!
When possible (97% of the time) I arrive early enough so I can setup/sound check before your guests arrive - who wants equipment being hauled in or sound checks going on while your guests are trying to enjoy themselves?
I take requests, and if given enough notice can fulfill special requests for songs that I may not know already - all you have to do is ask!
Thank you for the opportunity - I'll do a great job for you!
Respectfully,
Tom the Guitar Guy
