testimonials

Thanks so much for a really fun event. You helped us uphold our reputation as the best party- throwers among our group of friends! Zoe Susice, 2/27/10 birthday party, Jamaica Plain, MA You were a delight to work with and a super DJ for our event! Our guests raved and said they had a fabulous time dancing! Thanks for being so low-key yet involved and sensitive to our wishes. It felt like having a friend as our DJ! We have already recommended you to friends. Maura Albert & Linda Blair, 11/18/07 wedding, Millennium Bostonian Hotel, Boston, MA The acoustic guitar was a hit and Corins ability to go with the ow made the night (which was chaotic and not on schedule) go very smoothly. I hope we are able to use him for another family event someday! Christina Moore, 10/19/08 wedding, Aldrich Mansion, Warwick, RI Having own in a vocalist and harpist from Ireland, Corin worked with her seamlessly to add her into the evening festivities. The itinerary he sent before the wedding ensured that all speeches were timely. The laundry list of DO NOT PLAY and PLEASE PLAY that I sent your way was adhered to completely and even the stiest guests at the wedding were up and dancing from the very beginning! Trust me, we have the pictures to prove it! Michelle Hughes and Matt Benfer, 9/17/07, The State Room, Boston Thank you for a fantastic event! We are still getting calls from people telling us they had a blast. It was a pleasure working with you from start to nish. Ruth Weinstein, 6/16/07 Bat Mitzvah, Pine Brook CC, Weston, MA Corin was excellent to work with; he was thorough, organized and always responded to any questions in a timely manner. Heather Murphy and Pete Beatrice. 12/02/06 wedding, Hawthorne Hotel, Salem, MA I just wanted to call you before leaving for my honeymoon because I thought my wedding was the best party Ive ever been to. We had such a good time- in great part attributable to you and the band. We loved it and everybody was saying it was the best party ever. It was a great feeling to still have a packed dance oor at the end of the night. Thanks so much! Melissa Remis & Hally Zemanov, 07/03/06 wedding, Temple Emmanuel, Newton, MA Corin, you were a wonderful liaison and helped arrange our extremely complicated wedding. As you know better than we do, getting 10 people and all their equipment to Martha's Vineyard is a feat in itself, but getting everyone to our remote location down that winding dirt road and up a steep hill is just crazy. Many, many thanks for all your help. You are simply the best. Anne Fulenwider, Vanity Fair Magazine, 6/12/04, Martha's Vineyard, MA
