Brought A Beautiful touch and experience to The Best Day Of My Life

When we hired Damon I imagined a beautiful example of that show west world where the piano plays modern hits as if nobody was noticing just as beautiful background music, and it was! speaking to him for the first time it's very obvious that he takes what he does seriously, we asked him to play alongside a family member of ours that is a professional singer, he even called him months ahead of time in order to gauge what key he should be playing in order to harmonize best! and it worked out amazingly! sounded so beautiful! In addition to this, I waited until the last 3 days to make a request for a special song that means a lot to me that I found a piano rendition of, online and without even making me wait long at all with e-mail communication he agreed that he would be able to include it in my introduction for my wedding. During cocktail hour his playing of the Piano was absolutely beautiful exactly what I wanted our wedding was truly perfect Damon really helped contribute to what was honestly the best day of my life and he didn't miss a beat while doing it! If anybody ever asks me if I can recommend someone to play beautiful Piano at their wedding / party / get together /event id be happy to pass along Damons information. Thank you Damon Carter Thank you for our beautiful wedding!

Beyond amazing

Damon is excellent! We received so many compliments from our guests. He was so easy to work with. He guided me every step of the way and even went out of his way to find a singer for our wedding. Look no further. Book him immediately. I give him my highest recommendation.

Very responsive and professional

Although we decided to go with a violinist, Damon was incredibly professional and quick to get back to us. We asked for samples and he sent us a few within a 2 day period. He plays beautifully and I highly recommend him if you are looking for a pianist.

Excellent pianist and very professional!!! Highly recommend!!!

Damon was excellent! He was extremely professional. He had all the paperwork, understood the assignment, and delivered a great performance. He provided all his equipment, and made the process very easy for us to work with him. He was also flexible and able to work around some issues with the venue to move his station. This allowed our guests to hear him before the ceremony and during the cocktail hour.
