I can not speak highly enough about Jeremy! I hired him for my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary party and he sang for several hours! We asked him to play dinner music with Sinatra...

He was very professional and easy to work with and he responds right away. I promise you will not be disappointed! Do not think twice about hiring him!! If I could give him 10 stars I would!

er voice. He created such a fun and romantic vibe for every aspect, but had no problem getting the party started when the time came. We gave him a “vibe” for our music and he nailed it. This took so much stress off not having to curate a playlist! His set up was clean, pretty, and professional, and he has been one of the most talked about things from our wedding. I can’t wait to figure out another event to get to hire him.

We hired Jeremy to be the live musician for the ceremony and cocktail hour of our wedding. Jeremy was actually one of the first vendors we hired - we knew we wanted a live musician...
, heard a few of his tracks, and loved him so much that we wanted to make sure we snagged him. He was so effortless throughout the process - truly one of the easiest vendors we had. He had an extensive song list of songs and styles to choose from and even takes requests! We asked him to learn a very specific cover of a song as we walked down the aisle and it was everything we could have wished for and more. More importantly, he was low-maintenance, took any and all requests we gave, and was a class act the day-of the wedding. Our only regret was not hiring him to do our DJ as well - had we known how seamless he was, it would have been a no-brainer. We would highly recommend having Jeremy at any and all weddings and events! Thanks for everything, Jeremy!

We had such an amazing time at our wedding and thanks to Jeremy I never left the dance floor for more than 10 minutes I think lol.
Couldn't be more thankful for Jeremy making our wedding a dream come true, truly the best day of our lives!!

We didn't have too many specific requests, but he was very willing to provide us with exactly what we wanted in terms of songs and atmosphere.

ur wedding date FINALLY arrived. He is a wonderful musician and made our ceremony feel so much more intimate with his music. His voice is lovely and his style is exactly what I’d always wanted for my wedding. We had a ton of guests asking about him both at the wedding and after!
Jeremy is also very kind and respectful. We knew from the first exchange of emails that he was a vendor that we could trust and count on for our special day. We would choose him again and again if given the opportunity.
Thank you, Jeremy, for being you! Our wedding day would have never been as special as it was without your sharing your talents with us and our guests.
Jeremy McBee is not only a fantastic musician, he also is a great team player. I'm an event planner and my clients unfortunately had an issue with the in-house sound system at the ...
venue for their rehearsal dinner, and Jeremy quickly stepped in to help without a second thought. He allowed everyone to use his mic and sound system, and even stayed later than he was contracted to ensure all the important people were able to make their speeches.
Jeremy is a delight to work with, provides great entertainment, and an all around nice person. I highly recommend hiring Jeremy for your event!

attention the entire time. His voice is great, his ability to play the guitar and keyboard were stupendous, his selection of music was great, and he was extremely easy to get along with. I can't think of one critical thing to say! Thank you Jeremy!
We had the best experience with Jeremy from the first time we reached out for a quote. He was never pushy, gave us time to decide, and was very accommodating in all aspects! He le...
arned new songs, offered to play other instruments, and was very responsive. When booking a musician I found many candidates didn’t offer a song list, contract, have a website, ect. Jeremy has all his ducks in a row and very professional! Day of the wedding a huge wind storm and cold front rolled in just as he started to play. He pushed through it and didn’t complain once. So grateful we hired him!
We first learned of Jeremy from the photographer we engaged for our wedding, and we couldn't have been happier with the recommendation! We were immediately impressed by his talents...
playing both the guitar and keyboard combined with his beautiful vocals. He performed the guitar for our wedding service then travelled to our hosting venue to continue playing the keyboard through our wedding dinner. Jeremy has a massive library of songs on both instruments and was able to customize our playlist combining our preferences with his expertise and experience. Our guests continue to rave about the beauty he brought to our special day.
In addition to his talents, Jeremy was extremely professional from the start - easy to communicate with to plan our event's schedule and choreograph its music. Jeremy was prompt and gelled with our other event vendors. He has an absolutely delightful personality. He was entirely self sufficient and extremely polite with everyone during the event.
We highly recommend Jeremy to perform at all of your events!
Jeremy is such a pleasure to work with. He truly made our wedding very special and we had so many compliments from our guest. He is very talented and I would highly recommend him ...
to perform at any occasion.
We had a small wedding of 14 people and had Jeremy perform the entire evening (ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner/reception). We could not have been happier with his performance!!...
Jeremy is not only very talented, but so easy to work with. Jeremy was very quick to respond with information/pricing and anytime we had little questions prior to our wedding. Jeremy had a great variety of songs in his repertoire he shared with us, and was so kind to sing an adapted version of “Alison” that my dad wrote for our father/daughter dance as a surprise for me. He even played piano as my dad sang the original father/daughter dance song we had picked! All we heard from our guests was “Jeremy is SO GOOD” all night. We would recommend Jeremy to anyone who is looking for “live” music for their wedding or event, and hope to have some excuse to work with him again in the future!!
There are so many amazing things I could say about Jeremy! I really wanted “live music” as a way to make our ceremony and cocktail hour stand out and Jeremy did just that. He has t...
he most classic voice, I can’t even put it into words. Hearing him singing “make you feel my love” started the water works with my dad and I before we even started walking down the aisle. Our guests absolutely raved about him at cocktail hour! He is so easy to work with and has an extensive collection of songs he already knows how to perform which made it so easy for a last minute girl like me to choose song selections. He also is ready and willing to learn any song you want him to play! Cannot wait to recommend him to future clients, he is incredible! Thank you so much Jeremy!
Jeremy was introduced to us by our wedding planner after we had a major change of plans due to COVID. We had a pretty quick turn around in planning what would be our second ceremon...
y and Jeremy made it extraordinarily easy for us in both offering song selections and suggestions for what we had in mind for our special day, even adapting and learning some special requests in a very tight window of time.
On the day of, Jeremys music set the backdrop for our now much smaller ceremony in the Texas hill country. He has a wonderful voice, delightful personality and would recommend to anyone for either a private event or wedding.
Jeremy contributed most of the music for our wedding night, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience for myself and my wedding guests. There was a slight snafu with the ti...
ming which required him to play longer than expected, and even with that minor adjustment, he had the perfect selection of songs to entertain our guests with. Jeremy was wonderful to collaborate with in the process prior to the wedding, and made an effort to provide the perfect sound, mood, and variety of songs for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dinner of our wedding. Thank you, Jeremy, for all of your work--especially the extra hour or so you played, because I know the guests enjoyed every minute of it. If you're looking for a soft, romantic, acoustic feel to your wedding music, I highly recommend Jeremy. He has the best repertoire for classic vocals--whether its classic Jazz vocals, like Frank Sinatra or modern stylings of music, you can't go wrong. Thanks again, for everything. Jeremy helped make our wedding beautiful!
Jeremy's music was exactly what we were looking for when it came to our ceremony and cocktail hour. My husband and I wanted music that was very "us", which meant we sent a lot of s...
pecial requests to Jeremy. Jeremy took the time to learn all of our requested songs and we could not have been more pleased!
Our guests raved about the intimate feeling of our ceremony and I know Jeremy's music had a lot to do with that. From the bridesmaids walking down the aisle to Moon River, to a cocktail hour filled with Sinatra in memory of my grandfather, we could not have asked for a better musical touch. I truly did not want the music to end!
Thank you Jeremy for your responsiveness, talent, and professionalism. I highly recommend Jeremy for any event. And be sure to check him out when he performs around town at venues like the Driskill and Fairmont! Amazing original songs.
I wanted to have live music during my ceremony and cocktail hour, but I couldn't find someone I really liked until my wedding planner introduced me to Jeremy. He is an amazingly ta...
lented musician and is really great to work with. One thing that really stood out to me about Jeremy was that he was always super responsive and was very helpful when picking out music to play during my ceremony. Jeremy also took the time to learn a song that I really wanted to be played at my wedding and also recorded himself playing and singing it before the wedding so I was able to hear a preview! I am so glad I had Jeremy apart of my special day!
Jeremy was the best Musician ever! He worked so closely with my wedding planner and I to get EXACTLY what I wanted. He has the most amazing voice, is extremely talented and went ab...

s. I requested Sleeping at Last's version of "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" for our first dance song. It wasn't already in his repertoire but that didn't matter for Jeremy. He was so ready and willing to learn something new and he pulled it off beautifully. We are forever grateful to him.
Jeremy was a dream vendor for my wedding! When I went searching for a pianist, my mom suggested Jeremy, who she had been keeping up with after watching him perform at the Driskoll....
Jeremy was flexible with my music requests, an absolute professional on the day of, and just all around the nicest guy! When we watched our wedding video, I was in awe at how beautiful the music was and so grateful that he allowed my sister and niece to sing a duet he played. He was a HUGE Hit at the cocktail hour and our guests loved him! I'd recommend him for anything! Jeremy made our wedding day perfect!
