Music that fits the room
A company party is about people catching up, so the entertainment should help the room, not compete with it. Early on that means a relaxed background while guests arrive, eat and mingle. Later, once people loosen up, the songs everyone knows come out and the room starts singing along.
The songs are the classics nearly everyone grew up with, from the 70s, 80s and 90s, so they work for a mixed crowd of all ages: the new hires and the folks who've been there thirty years.
What you get
Two sets, either two 60-minute sets or two 90-minute sets, with a break in between that lines up nicely with dinner, speeches or awards.
My own professional sound system. A high-quality setup I bring, set up and run myself, so you don't need to rent anything or have the venue provide sound. Clear vocals and guitar at a volume that's right for the room.
Set up and sound-checked before guests arrive, so the music is ready when the doors open.
One point of contact. You deal with me directly, not an agency.
Holiday parties
December fills up fast, especially Friday and Saturday nights. If you're planning an office holiday or Christmas party, a client appreciation night or a year-end celebration, it's worth reaching out early to hold the date.
Corporate events all year
Live acoustic music also works well for company picnics, summer outings, client receptions, open houses, grand openings, retirement parties and team celebrations, indoors or out.

Questions
How long do you play?
Either two 60-minute sets or two 90-minute sets. We'll pick whichever fits your schedule.
Do we need to provide a sound system?
No. I bring my own professional sound system and handle the setup and sound check myself.
Will it be too loud for people to talk?
No. The volume is set for the room, so guests can hold a conversation. It can come up later in the night if the party gets going.
How much does it cost?
Every event is a little different, so send a request with the date, the town or venue and roughly how long you'd like music, and I'll get back to you with a quote.
Where do you play?
All over Connecticut. If your event is in CT, just tell me the town or venue when you get in touch.
How far ahead should we book?
For holiday parties in December, the sooner the better: weekend dates go first. For other events, a few weeks' notice is usually plenty, but it never hurts to ask.
