A musician who can even arrange new songs for you!

Robert Brown played at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour and did an amazing job! I was just sad I wasn't able to sit and listen to everything he was playing! He was responsive, flexible, and very easy to work with. I was so impressed that he even created two new arrangements for our wedding day including the song we walked up the aisle to, You Make My Dreams Come True. Robert made the process so easy, which is exactly what you need for your event, not to mention he sounded amazing as well. I wholly recommend him for your event.

Definitely recommend!

We knew that we wanted to hire Robert and his string trio to provide music for our ceremony and cocktail hour after hearing them play at a friend's wedding. They have a wonderful mix of classical, traditional and modern music, and also learned some new pieces for our wedding as part of their standard contract. We got so many compliments on the music, and Robert himself was fantastic to work with - he was very responsive, and just so nice throughout the entire process. We would definitely recommend hiring Robert and his trio to anyone!

GREAT Guitarist and more!

We looked at a lot of musicians for our wedding, for some reason we kept coming back to Robert. When we contacted him he was very responsive and answered any questions that we had. After talking things over, we decided that Robert was the guy for us, but there was a problem, we just couldn’t find the right vocalist on our own. I contacted Robert back and even tough his web page didn’t mention a vocalist, he recommended Samuel Krausz. We wasn’t sure about Sam because he didn’t have much material for us to listen to in the way of wedding music. Please, if you are looking for a wonderful guitarist and a vocalist to go along with him, don’t deprive yourself of these two. I think everyone at our wedding came up and told my wife and I how amazing they sounded. Thank you Robert and Sam, we would hire you again in a heartbeat. Tammy and Steph Boyd
