What else can I say but Fabulous!!! Everyone at the party thought he was amazing and asked where I found him. Matt's range is so wide! He was so professional, easy to deal with, and extremely accommodating. I hired Matt one week before our party and asked him to sing a couple of my Fiance's favorite songs for his birthday and even though Matt didn't know them he learned them for the party. I would definitely hire him again. "Thank You Matt for an amazing touch to our party".

Matt was awesome! A++++++++; ********! I will continue to hire Matt for all my special events and recommend him highly to my friends and family. He was actually approached by guests at our party to play their upcoming events. He is not only a fabulous musician, but gracious, caring and accomodating. We loved him and look forward to listening to him again. Would follow him any where!

Matt was a true professional in every way and I'm real pleased I hired him for my backyard family party for my daughter's graduation. We had a crowd of about 45 guests and its was an ecletic mix of guests, both young and old. Matt struck the right balance of music that pleased everyone. I'd hire him again in a minute.

Matthew Cutillo is, in one word "SUPERB"... in two words, "SUPERB SUPERB!!". He is the ultimate entertainer, and the kindest and gentlest and charmingest of people to boot. He is EXTREMELY TALENTED, vocally and on the guitar, and has such a vast buffet of types of music and songs that it/he is just AMAZING. He performed at my son's Christening and, EVERY CALL that I have received about the party has been complimenting my choosing Matthew and raving how much fun the party was because of him. He was super early, perfectly dressed and very personable. At one point, my older son asked if Matthew was our uncle because everyone was drawn to him! A+ to you Mr. Cutillo!!!

Matthew was beyond words incredible. We were having a birthday party in our yard and the night will be a forever memory. There is no doubt that we will look to have him entertain us again. Our guests were amazed and all called up today to say what a great time they had and how great he was. Matthew played for several hours straight able to sing every genre of music to please everyone. Super talent, super guy.

This is the first time I have booked a musician, but Matt's tremendous professionalism, attention to detail, and desire to make my event outstanding made it easy. He was extremely conciencious to ensure he understood my desires and then far exceeded them! Matt is an outstanding talent with tremendous versatility. He read my group, adapted to the mood and got everyone engaged with his great, likeable style. The compliments I received from my guests on his ability were universal. And when I told them that he was up at 6am driving 4 hours they were stunned. Book Matt; you won't have any regrets, and he will make your event a success as he did mine !!!

MATT CUTILLO was perfect for my wedding proposal!! If you're looking for someone at your event that will put in 150% then you NEED to go with him. I hired Matt to play guitar as i sang and then proposed to my fiancee and he went above and beyond the call of duty! HE was willing to go around my schedule. He took several hours out to practice the song with me. Everything I talked about with him as far as planning out the proposal and location he took seriously and helped with. He is very personal and I felt like I've known the guy forever. I highly recommend him if your looking for someone for your own proposal or if you have any occasion where you want an excellent musician.

Matthew Cutillo performed at a family birthday party and was the consummate performer! From the first moment we contacted him regarding our party, he was accommodating, personable, and extremely reliable. We had a very unique request for a performance of Johnny Cash music, and Matthew delivered! He spent a great deal of time learning new material to be performed at our party and did so with enthusiasm and accuracy! His appearance was a surprise to our guests and we all had a terrific time! He added so much to the event and we would not hesitate to recommend Matthew to ANYONE for ANY type of gig!

Matt was excellent. His performance was excellent and his professionalism is unmatched. He played non-stop for 4 hours straight at a 30th birthday party. He played a broad range of music which appealled to the many age groups that were there. All in attendance raved about his performance. I've received numerous inquiries about him from my guest for their future events. The restaurant the event was held at was difficult to work with, yet Matt adjusted and accomodated both the restaurant and the attendees. We would use Matt again at our next event. He was one of the highlights of the evening.

Matthew was personal, professional and accommodating, from the first email correspondence to the day of our party. He was very friendly and welcoming to our guests. The music that Matthew selected and the manner in which he performed gave our brunch just the relaxed, happy feeling that we wanted. Did I mention what an incredible musician he is? Matthew makes me want to create more occasions so that we can hear him sing. In every respect, Matthew is a gem. No need to look any further! 5*****

We hired Matthew for my wife's 40th birthday party. Needless to say he showed up ahead of schedule, setup and just started playing on his own without any prompting. As the guests arrived, it was evident that they were impressed by his vocal attributes and high energy performance. Matthew went on over five hours what seemed to be non-stop singing and guitar playing. He had a few guests on the dance floor while others simply enjoyed from a distance. We had an outdoor event and the music was loud and clear enough to be heard throughout. Thank you, Matthew for making my wife's birthday extra special. I would recommend you in a heartbeat. Your professionalism and overall demeanor just added to the evening.

In one word? Matt was GREAT! I can't say enough about his talent, his professionalism, how quickly he responded to my e-mails. We had a cocktail party here at my home, and what would usually be a low key evening, he turned into a big PARTY with lots of people singing along with him. Everything he played was PERFECTION and everyone is calling me to tell me how much they loved his music. Matt will definitely be our entertainment again and again and again. Thanks for a fantastic night Matt!!

Matt, showed up on time, and took him five minutes to get setup...A+ in my book. We had a large party approx 100+ people, he walked for around for five minutes or and introduced himself to everybody before he got started, another A+. Throughout the evening I moved him around my backyard...each time closer to the crowd as everyone finished the dinner hour. By the last set Matt was right in the mix (and to be honest, his last set kicked butt). Preliminary feedback from some of the people who attended the party, thought he was great. If we have a party next year, he will be back on the schedule -
Thanks Matt!!!!

I hired Matthew to make my proposal to my girlfriend as memorable as possible. I wanted someone to learn "our song", pretend to be a street performer, and start playing it while we were passing by. He was the first to respond, and his energy and enthusiasm made me feel like he would be perfect for this. He was so friendly, creative, open to communication and feedback, and flexible with his schedule that I felt like we were collaborating on this together! He really put all of his heart into this event and it went exactly as planned. He even contributed his own touches by secretly recording the proposal! Matthew is super talented and professional! He is the best!

We would recommend Matthew Cutillo without reservation. From our first contact, he was professional and personable and could not have been more accommodating. His set-list is vast and wide ranging, and he additionally offered to learn special songs, one of which he used to serenade my husband at the end of the night. In person he is utterly charming and our guests were captivated. He is extremely talented and was the cherry on the cake of an outstanding 40th birthday party. We can’t wait to hire him again.

I hired Matthew for my firm's summer outing in Westhampton, and he was terrific. My boss had mentioned that he wanted an acoustic guitarist/singer ever since last year's outing, and Matthew delivered big time & made me look great. It's amazing how much better a party can be when there is great live music. We'd like to have him back every year if he's available. I can't imagine the party without him there. He's a great guitarist, terrific singer & is a gentleman to boot. I can't recommend him more highly.

THE BEST! I hired Matthew for my husband's 40th birthday party -The guests ranged from 9 months old to 70 years old. Matthew was THE BEST! He entertained and connected personally with everyone. My husband could not have asked for a more professional and personal "stranger" to be welcomed into our home and life. My 9 year old daughter and her friends got his autograph and are begging for Matthew to come again. Our friends said that I could not have found a more "decent and talented guy". The over 50- year- olds sat back and smiled and tapped to the beat. I could have not been more greatful to Mathew! Thank you, Matthew - all the luck to you in the future and I hope our paths can cross again!!!

It was a pleasure having Matthew play for my Mom's B-Party. We had the time of our lives and the guests could not say enough about how great and talented he really is. Really for those who are looking for an awesome acoustic guitar player and amazing vocals you will not be dissappointed. Aside form his great musical talents, Matthew was on time and a pleasure to do business with. Thanks again! Bill Goerl, Long Island NY

Matt arrived 30 minutes before the party and set up his equipment. (Matt only requires a 5x5 space and an outlet) He began the night at 7:30 p.m and was playing while the guests were walking in. That was a great touch and the guests were all ready singing along. Throughout the evening Matt played hits from Blues Traveler, Chili Peppers and Led Zeppelin and Johnny Cash to name a few. My guests knew every song and tried to guess the artist. The most amazing thing was that, Matt plays the entire night STANDING in front of the microphone. He played 50 minute sets and took 10 minute breaks. Then he was back up singing and entertaining the crowd. The night continued with Matt playing until 12:00 am. My guests said it was the best summer party they have ever been to. They have all requested a business card and hopefully they will book Matt for their next party. In the end, it was a great summer night and I take great pleasure in recommending Matt Cutillo.

Matt had a large repertoire of enjoyable music and also took the time to learn some more songs that I had requested before he came. He played at a backyard party for my husband's birthday and all of our guests really enjoyed the music.

Matthew was an absolute pleasure to have at our event. It was my sister's 30th birthday and she had no idea that Matthew was coming and was presently suprised. He was very accomodating in every aspect. His sets were great, full of well known songs and he did a great job performing requests by the audience. Would definitely invite him back for a future event.

Matthew was professional, down to earth and friendly from the first phone call to the end of our event. He accommodated an alternate rain date for our party without hesitation (which was a huge help!), came on time (early even), had plenty of material, was talented and a great sense of humor. He was very friendly and professional to everyone at my son's first birthday party and our guests really loved his music. We would hire him again in a minute and have already referred him to some of our friends. Our experience with Matt couldnt be better and he is even easy on the eyes too! A definite bonus for the ladies!
