Many thanks for your excellent performance last evening in The Midnight Sun Lounge . . . It was certainly a polished performance and it was a pleasure to listen to your playing and vocalizing. The reaction of the audience was evidence that the evening was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

... What an enjoyable evening - you are so good at sharing your stage with singers and making it seem like you have been playing together for a long time. Your expertise and years of singing always shines thru and highlights the great talent you display every time you see (sic) behind the piano. Great song selections - my favorite was September Song. It was a fun nite !!!

What a delightful program, once again.  We sure do enjoy your once-a-month concerts.  Looks like MORE AND MORE other folks do too – last night every seat was taken.

Well my friend that came with me texted to say she had "Night and Day" stuck in her head and was humming it all day after hearing you sing it. This is who I go see bands like Pearl Jam with....I even felt the need to ask her if she knew what Phantom of the Opera was....you made a lasting impression and opened eyes ( and ears!) to something completely off her radar!

Re: The Spirit of Cabaret | Dinner + Show: Just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your show this past Saturday. Really top notch. And what I especially liked was that there were songs we'd never heard before - I liked the new material. And Mr Piano was great - nice choice.

And you looked lovely, as always. Thanks for a really nice evening out and a great dinner as well. Looking forward to the next one.

. . . Although I have only enjoyed your music there a handful of times, they all were memorable. You were the first professional to allow me to perform with you and for that you will always hold a special place in my memory. Thank you for being you and for the years of entertainment you have provided so many. . . .

What a wonderful evening. 

You were radiant at the keys!

And your vocal renditions were so touching, exquisite vocally, and so deeply you: emotionally rich, gracefully kind, and movingly engaging.

I loved the way you so artfully handle the audience and how you beautifully gave back each request.

Karen at the Keys is a treasure for the Westgate.
