Perfect music for our event

Jarrett was the perfect person for our outdoor vineyard event. He provided the kind of calming beautiful live guitar music we wanted. He was very professional and fit his performance seamlessly into our event. If we ever have another occasion, we will hire him again in a heartbeat.

Excellent Experience with Laskey

My husband and I specifically wanted a classical guitarist to play at our ceremony and happy hour as learning how to play guitar was part of our dating story. My dad wanted a quartet, so Jarrett suggested a duet with his colleague violinist Cristiana. The combination was perfect - and they even agreed to learn my parent's wedding song to play during the prelude. Jarrett was easy to communicate with, professional, and played for a few hours outdoors on a hot June day. Highly recommend!

Wonderful Guitar!

Jarrett provided wonderful classical guitar during our wedding ceremony and was an ease to work with! He came with a wide-ranging repertoire, making it easy to select songs which did well to set the tone of our day. No trouble at all hearing the music outside, and we each had several guests tell us how much they appreciated having Jarrett’s music as part of the ceremony.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
