Customer Feedback from Private Gigs


Her performance was exactly what we had envisioned. She went the extra mile – handled all requests. I will gladly consider her for our next endeavor. Reasonably priced and a great talent.

Marilyn did an absolutely wonderful job at our corporate event. Our attendees loved her and her musical selection for our reception was perfect. She arrived early and even stayed later than we had originally asked. Highly recommended!

Lindsay T Austin, Texas 10/20/2014

Marilyn played for our wedding ceremony and was absolutely fantastic! She already knew most of the music we requested and met with us prior to the wedding to go through the whole ceremony.

• Marilyn Rucker was absolutely WONDERFUL! Incredibly talented; performed above and beyond. My husband and I were thoroughly pleased with her level of musical abilities and professionalism, and presentation. We would definitely recommend her to friends and others. With sincerity, Dennis & Linda -- Linda O, Salado, TX, 11/7/2008

• Marilyn was wonderful and an excellent performer. She met with us twice to plan our 50th anniversary celebration and helped us with a special song my wife wrote. We met in her home and rehearsed songs we had requested. She is great musician and a lovely person ---- also fun. We will work with her on future events!! Cheers, Marshall Jennings -- Marshall J, Dripping Springs, TX, 7/30/2010

• It was a great pleasure and an honor to have Marilyn play and sing for our wedding reception. She has an exceptional voice and rather large song list. She set the mood for a perfect New Orlean's style brunch keeping everyone entertained. She is definitely affordable and extremely professional. Marilyn is appealing to her audience not only because of her talent but also because you can see her passion and love for music while she is performing. I would love to hear her sing and play the piano again! -- Kristen E, Richmond, TX, 11/1/2008

• Ms. Rucker was absolutely wonderful. She plays the piano so beautifully and did a fantastic job. She was very accommodating, and had a wide range of songs lined up for us. We will absolutely use her again and recommend her to anyone! -- Melissa S, Austin, TX, 12/11/2010

• Marilyn was wonderful and delivered the perfect performance for the evening. I highly recommend Marilyn to anyone looking for a professional and talented pianist for their event. -- Jenni W, Houston, TX, 10/30/2008

• Phenomenal job! Exceeded expectations. We were expecting a: sax, keyboard, bass guitar, drums, and vocalist. The talents were multi-faceted to include: flute, acoustical guitar, as well as a wide range of music. We got so many complements on the band and they really set the tone for the evening. The music was perfect- great sound, obviously practiced, and willing to accomodate any request if possible. They arrived early, were dressed extremely professionally and treated both us and our guest with great respect and enthusiasm. We would use them again and again!! -- Maggie B, Austin, TX, 10/11/2008



• Marilyn and her jazz trio were wonderful! Very entertaining and very fun! I would recommend her to anyone planning an event. -- Noah W, Fulshear, TX, 4/4/2008
• Marilyn was excellent! She ordered the special sheet music that I wanted played in my wedding. She came to my rehearsal at no additional charge. I was very pleased with her performance. -- Cheree B, Round Rock, TX, 2/23/2008

• Our experience with having Marilyn perform at our wedding was the highest rating possible. She is truly a jewel. I would recommend her to anyone who is looking for this type of entertainment.God bless you Marilyn! Keep up the great work...Sincerly, Rosie Miller -- Rosie S, Austin, TX, 11/17/2007

• Marilyn and her group were GREAT!!! I hired her to perform at my parent's 50th wedding anniversary. My father is a musician and thoroughly enjoyed playing with the group and by the evening, they were exchanging #'s for future gigs. Marilyn and her group were the icing on the cake and I would recommend her to anyone. -- Sandra G, Austin, TX, 9/22/2007

• Marilyn is a "must have" for any party or social event that needs a touch of sophistication to enhance the atmosphere. She played at our rehearsal dinner, which she was happy to travel 3 hours outside of Austin to come to. Her ability to sing and play piano is nothing short of phenominal; you will be blown away by her soothing sounds. Marilyn was also exteremely accomodating to our requests of songs by our favorite artists, like Diana Krall, Frank Sinatra, Begee Adaire, and Tony Bennett. And she was even able to play several requests by our guests right on the spot because she has such a vast repertoire of musical knowledge. So we only have rave reviews for Marilyn! -- Will M, Brownwood, TX, 7/20/2007

• We live in New York and made most of our arrangements via the internet. After finding Marilyn, we had a nice email correspondence. She was always prompt, curteous and accomodating. I met with her the day before the wedding to review music choices. You can't stump her! She arrived early, set up and ready to go. She transitioned beautifully through the meal from classical to our favorites, both piano solo and vocals. She has a great voice, a great attitude and looked lovely as well. I could not have been more pleased. A "sure bet" during a stressful time! -- Karen M, Austin, TX, 7/7/2007
• Wonderful!! -- Laura L, Austin, TX, 5/8/2007


• Marilyn was awesome. She was totally willing to work with a couple of our musician friends to do a some songs during the wedding ceremony. And they turned out great! She also played good background music while people milled about before hand. She was very punctual, which I liked because I tend to freak out if people I depend on aren't on time or early. Overall it was a very pleasant experience, she was friendly and professional. Exactly what we needed. Hire her! -- Mike R, Austin, TX, 4/13/2007
• I planned my wedding in Austin from out of state (New Jersey). Marilyn was very accomodating, professional, met with me before the wedding day and took the time to learn a few new songs for my ceremony. It was a leap of faith hiring someone with which I hadn't worked before, but she did a very good job. -- Julie H, Austin, TX, 7/8/2006
• Marilyn Rucker is a versatile performer. Her music set the mood at the event, it was soft enough that everyone was able to hear it clearly and still hold conversations. We thourghly enjoyed the performance. We are looking forward to possibly requesting her for another event in Corpus Christi in June '07.

The best thing about Ms. Rucker was that she was flexible and more than willing to meet our needs. She was also knowledgeable which helped since this was our first wedding. AND she arrived 15 minutes early. Highly recommended!
