Testimonials
"We have worked with Jimmy on countless events over the years — beach and backyard parties, weddings, intimate celebrations. He always brings the perfect energy, and he's consistently professional, responsive, and reliable. He has become one of our go-to musicians."
Mary Goode · Owner, Nantucket Magic / Palm Beach Magic"Jimmy has an incredible ability to create exactly the right atmosphere for an island celebration. He understands how to read a room and enhance a moment without ever overpowering it. There is something about Jimmy playing guitar on a summer evening on Nantucket that simply feels right."
Amanda McCabe · Founder, Beacon & Berkeley Events"An amazing musician who truly makes a party! He knows exactly how to read a crowd and creates the most fun and memorable atmosphere. Our guests absolutely loved him — I would hire Jimmy for every event going forward."
Elizabeth Draughon · Private client, Nantucket"We booked Jimmy for an intimate brand dinner on Nantucket and he exceeded our expectations. We ended up extending his set time on site and he just rolled with it. We will certainly have him back."
Rebecca Vile · Events Team Lead, MyTheresa"A pleasure to work with — reliable, positive, and incredibly talented. We thoroughly enjoyed having him perform at our Beach Club and look forward to welcoming him back."
Mary Elise Cooper · Membership & Events Coordinator, Sankaty Golf & Beach Club"Amazing set list and vibe — you were the hit of the party. Let's do it again soon!"

FAQ
What do you need from us on the day?
Power near the performance area (two standard outlets within 50 feet covers most setups), a level dry spot to play, and loading access. Outdoors, a covered spot keeps the gear — and the music — safe if weather turns. I confirm all of it with you before the event, so there are zero surprises.
Can you play longer if the party's going?
Almost always yes — overtime is agreed on the spot and billed in 30-minute blocks, so a great night never has to end on schedule.
How does booking work?
Send the form below, we talk same-day (usually by text), and a 50% deposit locks your date. Simple agreement, e-signed from your phone. Balance is due by the event.
Do you take song requests?
Within reason, and it depends a little on the occasion — a wedding first dance is a different ask than a request shouted at the bar. Send your must-plays ahead of time and I'm always happy to give your song a chance.
