Fantastic entertainment for any live event

Ben was the absolute highlight of our 500+ person gala event. People are still raving about him almost 1 year later. The way he engaged the crowd was incredible, and he was a joy to work with throughout the planning process. Highly recommend him to anyone!

Outstanding Musician, Performer, and Human!!

Ben is incredible at what he does in all areas. We hired him for a 500 person event, and were impressed with him all the way through the process. He attended meetings before our event to ensure we were on the same page about what type of music we wanted played, he was very communicative and responsive, and he was on time and efficient while setting up. Our guests were blown away by his talent and loved that he was able to walk among them during cocktail hour. It was an elegant and interactive touch, which is just what our event needed!!
