Rory Bolton is a consummate professional. We hired him to play piano and sing at a very special birthday party for an eclectic audience ranging in ages from young to senior. He was extremely communicative from the start, responsible, and took a really personal interest in making the birthday party event a success. He researched and prepared for the party in advance. The day of the big day, he showed up early and was 100% ready to go. Rory is one of those rare performers who you can really feel tries his best at every moment. The piano playing was insanely good. His singing voice is excellent. Rory brings tremendous energy and knows how to engage a crowd. He prepared specials songs and renditions for the birthday to match the genre and era of music that was desired. He even danced on the piano while singing Jerry Lee Lewis - Great Balls Of Fire!. Long story short, if you're seeking a special performer, look no further. Rory is your guy! He'll just do great for you. If we have the opportunity soon, which we hope we do with other events, our family will certainly be hiring him again! And on top of all of that, Rory is a really nice guy. It's nice to work with good people. And we were lucky enough to hire a piano-singing professional who really brought an A+ level experience!
