“Michael was beyond remarkable! From the moment I reached out, his level of attentiveness to gather all details of my event, down to the day of arriving, was nothing short of professional! I found Michael to be timely, organized and best of all – AWESOME! He entertained a party of 75 for my company – and everyone left with smile on their faces and raved about his performance. One last thing I found to be super important was that Michael knew how to read the room, and picked up on cues, knowing exactly what to play, when to play, and how to execute it. We will be working together again, for sure!”

"Michael Also is an excellent musician and was easily one of the highlights of our wedding. He went above and beyond throughout the entire process - he helped coordinate with our venue, planned his performance with meticulous detail, learned our first dance in a few weeks (and crushed it) and even played us down the aisle on a moment's notice when our pre-recorded music wouldn't play. Our guests still talk about how much fun they had dancing and singing along with Michael all night."

"The minute Michael strummed his first chord and sang that first note, we knew he was top notch. Michael added so much to a very special milestone birthday party. I would recommend Michael to anyone needing an amazing musician & a totally nice person."
