Hired Edgar for my sister's baby shower and he was so amazing! He asked what kind of music we wanted beforehand and added more music that made the party that much better. Everyone absolutely loved him and even want to hire him for their own events... truly the best out there!

I was really struggling to find an affordable musician to play at my Grandmothers Birthday dinner and with not much time left I was recommended Edgar. He was super helpful when we started speaking and was able to provide me some set playlists with a little bit of every type of music I wanted! He played so beautifully and my whole family was amazed by how well he played and he was the perfect addition to my grandmothers birthday. I really look forward to having him again at the next birthday event I plan. Thank you so much Edgar for the music!

I had the pleasure of working with Edgar for my engagement, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the very start, he was incredibly professional and attentive to my needs. The music was absolutely beautiful and set the perfect romantic atmosphere for the occasion. Edgar played a wonderful selection of songs that truly touched our hearts. He was very communicative from the start and offered very reasonable prices. He helped me carry a Reckless and my fiancé loved it. She said yes!

I've hired Edgar for several events now and there are so many wonderful things I can say about him, but I think this sums it all up - HE IS CONSISTENTLY AMAZING!!!! Doesn't matter whether it's a social event or a corporate event, he is reliable, responsive, easy to work with and just an all-around class act. Every event I have done with him the guests are always blown away. He does music in every genre and just really adds such an amazing element to any event. I am an absolute fan and will continue to hire him for my events.

Edgar was the absolute best violinist!! The one thing I KNEW I had to have for my wedding was a live violinist. We did a lot of searching for the perfect violinist to make our day special. I'm so glad I found Edgar. He was responsive, gave us recommendations on what songs to use. Most importantly he did everything in his power to make our day perfect and personalized for us! I wanted a specific slowed down version of a Taylor swift song to walk down the aisle too. He learned it, recorded it and sent it to me all before I even booked him! It was even more amazing the day of. Everyone was in tears! He did the same for my husband and even had a call with us before the big day to make sure he knew what we wanted! Can not recommend him enough!
