Excellent cellist for our wedding

We were so happy that we hired Josh for our wedding. Our only regret is that we didn’t have him play longer. Highly recommend.

Perfect Addition To Artsy, Bohemian Style, Beach Wedding

Joshua was so easy to work with and eased the typical stressors associated with planning an out-of-state wedding in an unknown area. He honestly felt like part of our family! His beautiful cello solos were perfect for the unique aura of our daughter's intimate Atalaya Castle wedding in Murrells Inlet, SC. Tysm, Joshua!
