Stunning!!!!

All I can say is WOW. We are so ecstatic that we hired Ryan for our wedding day entertainment. Not only is he incredibly, incredibly gifted, but he’s also an awesome person to work with. Ryan set up a consultation right away and asked us to prepare a list of songs/artists/genres that we wanted at our event… and boy, did he deliver. The entire process was seamless from start to finish. Ryan was flexible, accommodating, and always quick in communication.

If you’re looking for the perfect addition to take your event over the top and blow away your guests, look no further. He’s the real deal.

Great experience

Made the party for us. Got the crowd involved and let a few of us sing with him. Just an awesome experience overall. Surpassed what we had expected. I would 100 percent recommend Ryan to anyone that asks. Great voice, awesome guitar player, came prepared, showed up earlier than expected, can’t say enough good things. Everyone was talking about our party. Thanks again Ryan!
