    From the very first email Tom was amazing! He was attentive, informative, and really listened to what we wanted. He preformed at our wedding this past weekend and was incredible! Everyone was so impressed and loved the experience. Tom not only Djs, but he entertains! He plays instruments and sings most of the night!!! We could not have imagined a more wonderful evening and we owe a lot of that to Tom!!!

    Tom is everything you could hope for in a DJ/one-man-band. Both his instrumental and vocal skills are marvelous, while his musical sense is absolutely flawless. He provides exceptional service to his patrons (witnessed on two occasions), and he also has a remarkably amiable personality that is very easy to work with. He is highly recommended.

    Tom was amazing! We had Tom play for our ceremony, cocktail hour / dinner and reception. Tom was professional and very talented with everything he did for us. There were times at the reception when I thought he was just playing a song, but turn around to see him actually singing and playing the guitar. He's really that good! He also played acoustic guitar at our ceremony and sax / flute at our cocktail hour, which was perfect! And he's more than just a DJ; He helped keep us on schedule during the wedding and made the announcements when necessary. He also met with us twice before where we discussed the series of events and he really helped flesh out the details about how the order should go and what made sense. Not only did he help us with the music, but we also used his lighting system which was great! It was synced with the music quite well, and also doubled as accent lighting during our cocktail hour with our wedding colors. It was money well spent! So if you're looking for a professional yet fun musician to work with then Tom is your guy!

    I honestly can’t imagine our wedding reception without Tom being there. His enthusiasm and charisma are exceeded only by his unbelievable talent. From playing jazz saxophone and flute during the cocktail hour, to ramping up the energy on the dance floor as a DJ, to performing Earth, Wind and Fire, Tom was simply the best DJ/Musician/Entertainer/Emcee we could have hoped for.
    Many of you reading this are likely wrestling with the question of DJ or band – I know Becky and I were. Trust us… HIRE THIS MAN. As a brilliant guitarist and touching vocalist, he brings an immense charm and personal touch to great songs – and performs like a one-man band. But he is also a killer DJ that knows how to keep the party, when to slow it down for a bit, and how to ramp it back up. Becky and I met with him just once to discuss everything, and he remembered every detail, and was able to divine from a simple conversation EXACTLY the music we would want – as if we had chosen every song that night.
    Our wedding was the most fun of any we’ve been to, and our friends and family have said the same thing. We had a beautiful hall, gorgeous flowers and excellent food, but it was Tom that truly made it a good time for everyone. We can’t thank him enough.

    Amazing Entertainer

    Tom was an amazing wedding Entertainer and DJ! From live music and singing to DJing he really did it all at the reception! He was flexible working with us to accommodate all of our favorite songs and integrated them seamlessly into his sets. He had the dance floor rocking the entire night and really blew everyone away with his talent and multiple instruments. We continue to have so many people rave about his performance after the wedding, it really made for such an incredible day.

    A+ all around

    A+ all around. Tom had people crying during the ceremony with his guitar and dancing all night with his combination of great music selection and live singing and instruments along with the music. Throw in some saxophone and jazz flute during cocktail hour and dinner and he was a highlight of the wedding for everybody.

    He was also extremely easy to work with and flexible when our wedding venue changed a few months before. Would highly recommend all around.

    By far the best DJ ever! I changed the date of my wedding just so I could book him. He played a wide variety of awesome music that got everyone on the dance floor, young and old. He made our wedding day a day we'll never forget!

    Tom was truly one of the best parts of our reception! He is the kindest, most helpful person and will provide whatever you ask!!! We had our wedding in a train station and inside there was a little restaurant where we had cocktail hour and Tom played the saxophone and sang (the restaurant had a theme from the 1920’s and 30’s and was full of glitz & glamour) -he just played music that perfectly fit the vibe of the room! After dinner he kept the crowd dancing all night and fulfilled all our expectations and more!!!
    We cannot say enough good things about Tom Bruhl and his professionalism, his skills and his ability to work any crowd! His talents as a musician and as a DJ make him unique, memorable and completely necessary to make your wedding the best party anyone has attended! He is the absolute best at what he does!

    Don't wait: Hire DJ Tom Bruhl!

    Unbelievable one man band. Tom does everything, he is so responsive, professional, helpful and experienced. He was great to work with from start to finish. We received endless compliments from our guests on how fun he was. Don't wait to book him for your event. This guy was a HIT. He was so awesome at our wedding.

    Highly recommend!

    Tom is the best! He knows how to read a room and keep everybody dancing all night long. Not only is he an amazing DJ, he sings and plays instruments throughout the cocktail hour and reception. Every guest loved the music all night and even one of my bridesmaids booked him for her wedding next year during the reception! Highly recommend Tom to anyone getting married!

    Tom was absolutely one of the highlights of our wedding! He played the guitar beautifully for our ceremony and played multiple instruments throughout our cocktail hour (giving us great live acoustic music!) and then kept everyone on the dance floor all night long! So many people commented on how impressive he was and having him was really like having a band and a DJ - the best of both worlds! And, perhaps the best compliment, after hearing Tom at our wedding, our friends booked him for their wedding. We would highly, highly recommend him!

    Mother of the Bride

    Tom did a wonderful job at my daughter’s wedding on 2/15/20. He is a “jack of all trades, “ and very musically talented, being a wonderful instrumentalist, aside from a really good singer. He kept the dancing going and played a wonderful variety of songs. I missed things like the music at the time when people were arriving, because we were up in the bridal suite, but people told me he did a wonderful job. He has a fun personality, too! Everyone has been telling us how great he was. My daughter hired him without even seeing him or hearing him in person, just based on recommendations.and his website

    A real showman / amazing talent

    There are not enough words to express how talented Tom is. He did an incredible job at my wedding! Everyone was so impressed with his skills to DJ and play a variety of live instruments. He seamlessly transitioned from his guitar, to the sax, to the flute. He was an amazing showman (even singing!!!) and entertained the guests all night. On top of that Tom was able to successfully play a list of traditional music from my country and seamlessly transitioned from one to the other. My guests were beaming and dancing all night. We are so thankful for Tom's help along the way, his professionalism, communication, knowledge, and passion.

    Great DJ for wedding

    Tom was amazing! He switches between being DJ and band! He also was great in keeping the flow of the wedding going and getting people on the dance floor. We got so many compliments from our guests about him and would definitely recommend!

    Best DJ/musician ever!

    The main reason we chose Tom was because he does both live music and DJ as well. We were so impressed with how talented he is and all of our guests kept asking about him because he was doing such an amazing job. He really is a one man band and does literally everything himself. The saxophone, guitar, flute, singing, all of it! He’s easy to work with and offers recommendations if you aren’t sure about what to do. He kept our guests entertained all night. Can’t say enough good things about our experience working with him for our wedding. You won’t regret hiring him but you will regret it if you don’t. Thank you Tom!

    My husband and I hired Tom Bruhl for our Wedding DJ/entertainment. We were so impressed by how awesome he was. I was really nervous about picking someone for entertainment because this can really make or break a Wedding if you don't have someone good. Tom was easy to work with, he was not only the DJ for our Wedding, but he also personally played music for our cocktail hour. We received so many compliments on him after our Wedding, my husband and I wished we were able to be part of the cocktail hour so we could have enjoyed his entertainment! I can't recommend him enough to anyone looking for a DJ for their Wedding. He made everything so easy and everyone had a blast dancing all night. All of our guests tell us time and time again how much fun our Wedding was. I have to attribute a lot of that to Tom Bruhl because he provided the entertainment. Thank You Tom for making our day so memorable, we look forward to using you again for another event. Katie & Ed Rice

    Tom Bruhl's reply:

    It's great to see your feedback after more than a year! I wish you and Ed a happy two year anniversary this November. Cheers!

    Awesome!! TOTALLY recommend!

    Book him now!! Your wedding starts and ends with this man--literally and figuratively. Not only does Tom bring the party, but he will play as you walk down the aisle and keeps the party going until you shut the place down.
    We booked Tom for our wedding last September and it was one of the best decisions we made for that day.
    Tom was very professional. If you are planning a wedding, let me tell you that the chaos and stress only increase as you get closer to the wedding. When we booked him, we assumed the box was checked and moved on. We completely forgot to provide a song list, etc..:
    Tom would gently remind us to send updates. He took care of everything based on the limited information we gave him. It was perfect.
    Tom is a phenomenal DJ, who can read the room and get people (some of whom I’ve never seen dance before) get up and dance. He is also a VERY talented musician. In addition to the lovely instrumental he played as I walked down the aisle, he wowed my guests with his Dave Brubeck saxophone playing, going from table to table, during dinner.
    If you want a magical and memorable wedding, where you feel like a princess, book Tom. You will not be disappointed!

    Tom truly is a one man band, and a true talent…a rare gem in the wedding DJ business. When we first met with Tom at his home to pick out the music, we were thrilled and immediately relieved that we made the right choice. He will learn songs for you, plays several instruments during cocktail hour and dinner, and will pick the perfect late night sing-a-long that will bring down the house. As the wedding was drawing to a close the last thing we heard from our guests was them chanting, “ONE MORE SONG, ONE MORE SONG…” We are still hearing from our guests, and heard several times during the wedding, how incredible Tom was as a musician and a DJ. Tom is a great emcee as well, and will make your wedding day flow with perfection. When I was researching wedding DJ’s, it caught my attention that Tom gets glowing reviews from all his clients. There is a reason for that: Tom is perfect!! Thanks Tom!

    Based on the South Shore, Tom is a skilled musician and singer who performs live music and also provides DJ services. We were sold on hiring him because he was a nice guy, and gave us both live and recorded music in one person at one reasonable price. But there are so many other great reasons to hire Tom! We met with him a couple of times, and were in touch with him regularly, as we planned the event - he gave us his ideas and asked questions without being pushy, and he definitely made our ideas better! At our wedding, he alternated between instrumental/voice and recorded music throughout the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, with seamless transitions. As an MC, he was constantly "on" but never annoying (unlike the other DJs we met at those sampler shows). He blended our ideas about music with his expert knowledge, and got everyone dancing. At the wedding, we happily hired him to stay for a little extra time because everyone was having such a great time.

    Tom Bruhl is amazing. He played flute and classical guitar for the ceremony, then transitioned to guitar along with backing tracks for the cocktail hour. We moved inside and he seamlessly moved from straight DJing to singing and playing along with songs. He even wandered through the room playing the sax at one point, riffing on 'Here comes the Bride' as he walked by our sweetheart table.

    We gave him minimal guidance, and he crafted a delightful and dance-filled evening of music. Furthermore, every request people had, he was able to fulfill. For a good price, you get the equivalent of like 3 bands. Tom's the man.

    Hire him. Best ever.

    Hire him. Period. Tom is THE BEST. Music was the most important thing for us for our wedding. I did a ton of research & found Tom. He was super professional, responsive and did a lot of front-end work on my playlist and first dance music. And the wedding music was superb. He’s a great singer, plays multiple instruments and knew just what music to play when to keep the vibe just right during dinner and dance floor packed. People kept coming up during the wedding to ask Who IS this guy? Best ever!!! Weeks later I’m still getting compliments. 10 stars.
