Garret performed for our wedding ceremony! He sent along samples of the arrangements that he put together beforehand and asked for feedback. Everything was perfect and he powered through, despite an aggressive amount of mosquitos! Garret was great to work with! He is kind, professional and a great musician! -

From the initial communication to the the end of my wedding day, Garret was a consummate professional. He communicated with me several times between the initial contact and the day of my ceremony, and was always respectful and kind. His communications were clear and he answered any questions I sent his way very quickly.
His music made our ceremony and reception that much more special. I particularly appreciated the custom arrangement he created, completely transforming an 80's synth pop song into a tender ballad. He was flexible in working with a singer that he'd never met to perform this song, which was the most memorable part of our ceremony. I can't say enough how thankful I am for Garret's professionalism and kind nature, and for the exceptional talent he shared with me, my partner and all of our guests. -

We wanted a guitarist for our cocktail hour, ceremony prelude and a few songs to play as people transitioned to dinner. We had some specific requests of songs. One he had to learn and another he had to change his own version to fit how we wanted it played to fit my how we wanted the song sung by my daughter. He sent me an mp3 for each song for my approval. He was so accommodating! He got there early to rehearse with my daughter and they nailed the song perfectly. He provided mics for my daughter and my officiant free of charge which not all musicians do. He was so easy to communicate with and so professional. My officiant does many weddings and she is a musician herself. She expressed interest in getting his contact information because she wanted to add him to her recommended wedding vendor list. She loved his talent! Couldn't have been more pleased with our choice to use Garret for our special day!! -

My husband and I saw Garret performing as a part of Painted White at the Rusted Crow in Detroit about a year before we got engaged. We were in town for a concert at Little Caesars Arena and wanted a great bar to stop in at afterwards so we checked YELP. Out of thin air we picked Rusted Crow because it looked awesome. Industrial- great food. It was the middle of their set when we arrived and we were immediately enamored. Eclectic sound, beautiful musicianship. Just makes you stop and watch and listen. They stopped by following their set to say hi and gave us a business card. Later when my husband proposed, I dug through my things to find that card and immediately emailed to see if they did weddings. THEY DID. It could not have been more perfect. Garret was amazing to work with. Responsive and helpful and very informative. After COVID hit, everything was turned on its head. In the midst of trying to figure out what to do, Garret emailed to say they were still in no matter what. That whatever we decided to do, if they could make it work, they were in. Settling words. We had to move our date to August. We’re out of town so they had to travel. Nothing phased them. Reasonable pricing. And they’re worth every penny and so much more! We wanted them for ceremony, cocktail hour and dinner. We had a DJ for dancing. The coordination was seamless. Sound was amazing. Finger style recordings of any 3 songs I picked for ceremony that he created and sent to me ahead of time to hear. I can’t say enough. Everyone I’ve talked to since the wedding has asked WHERE’D YOU FIND THAT BAND?? They were amazing!! Garret, thank you for being there on our special day. You were exquisite. -

Brittany Sent on 06/19/2018Garret recently played during our wedding, and we only have great things to say about him! He was very responsive and helpful during the wedding planning process, and we appreciated that he sent us the songs he had learned for us so that we could hear them before the wedding day. We loved his versions of the songs that we requested for the ceremony, and he played a great mix of songs during cocktail hour. My dad (also a guitar player) told us several times how talented he thinks Garret is! He helped to make our wedding day one of the best days ever, and we recommend him to anyone who is looking for a musician for their wedding or event! --Brittany & Andy Paul -
User2438299 Sent on 11/22/2015Garret provided music for our Sunday evening dinner wedding. I wanted our wedding to feel like the best dinner party you've ever attended and we knew music would be a big part of that. Garret was so wonderful to work with. He coached me in selecting songs that would compliment the feel of the evening and be significant to my husband and I. He sent us arrangements of the songs we chose and we knew we made the right choice in inviting him to our wedding. The music prior to, through and after the ceremony set the tone for our early October wedding. Garret was so attentive all through the planning process and set up all the equipment he needed. I'm so grateful to have found him!
