A perfect gentlemen with amazing skills! Benjamin performed for our wedding and was precisely on time, dressed to the "t," and was very professional. Benjamin is so amazing I would...
book him again just to watch him perform a private concert for me and my wife. Great work my friend! May God bless you and your endeavors!!!
Mr. Golden has all the characteristics one could desire in a musician. He was on-time, prepared, energetic but calm, attentive, agreeable, neat, crisp, knowledgable, and talented. ...
He played a ceremony for my wife and I which was attended by half a dozen University professors, two dozen friends and neighbors, and half a dozen family members. It was an outdoor event with tents in case of inclement weather ( luckily the weather was agreeable ) and the party went on for longer than we imagined it might. There are probably hundreds of guitarists available for such a gig. I think the number with Mr. Golden's musical depth is much more limited. While he had a prepared playlist, our guests made many requests, some which I viewed as unreasonable. They were not disappointed. Mr. Golden shifts easily from pop, to classical, to gypsy jazz, Irish rags, bluegrass, and more. One moment I am listening to Bach and Schubert, then suddenly Django Rheinhart followed by some passionate and flamboyant flamenco. Mr. Golden's repertoire is astounding, his performance enjoyable, and his awareness of volume levels and the crowd's mood sensitive and professional. I have recommended him to many people, both corporate acquaintances and friends. I recommend him to you now.
