Evyn played at the reception of our baby’s baptism and he did an outstanding job. His performance was great, he selected perfect music for the ocassion and his presentation was also ad hoc to the event. I truly recommend Evyn for any type of party he will make you and your guests happy!

What can we say… Outstanding! Evyn was very professional, arrived early for set-​up, and interacted well with ourselves and our guests. We had a Cowboy themed birthday party for our son. Evyn came in Western attire! He had a set list of classic and contemporary country songs. Of course he took requests and seamlessly inserted a wide range of songs: Credence to Neil Young, Garth Brooks to Neil Diamond! In five hours, he only took two breaks! He even acted as emcee, directing our guests to food and cake cutting and pony rides when appropriate. All of our guests had great things to say about his performance. He got so much applause, he made a joke about thinking he was only supposed to be the background music! We would highly recommend Evyn and would not hesitate in hiring him again. Thanks again Evyn for making our son’s first birthday party extra special.

Evyn played for my wife Alison and my wedding in May ’14 at the Bel Aire Bay Club in Pacific Palisades. My wife and I were really struggling to figure out what we wanted to do during our reception for music. We went out with some friends and heard Evyn playing at Tony P’s in Redondo Beach. We instantly loved his music, the tone of his voice and his professionalism he displayed while playing (in addition to his song selection). I got his card during his break and we booked him the next day.
As any married person knows, wedding’s are stressful and full of coordination. Evyn made things seamless and he was extremely responsive (I wish it would have been the same for other venues) and that really helped us out.
He showed up on time and he did a great job. I didn’t get to see the whole set (considering we were being tugged around taking pictures), but I did catch some songs and he got rave reviews from our guests. My father who is a musician as well really complimented Evyn and his abilities. I would highly recommend Evyn for any event.

I’ve seen Evyn play a number of times at Tony’s on the Pier and have always enjoyed his music and the relaxed vibe that comes with it. I was recently planning a corporate event that needed live music, so Evyn was an ideal choice. He played at our evening outdoor reception for 100+ guests at the Hotel Maya. He did an exceptional job of entertaining the crowd with a wide mix of music and creating a relaxed atmosphere for all to enjoy. A good deal of the crowd stayed longer than scheduled and Evyn was happy to continue playing to keep the party going. Thank you, Evyn!

Evyn is awesome! Everything from Bob Marley to Eazy-​E. I have seen him perform many, many times over the last 5 years. He is a class act and superb musician.

I’ve had the pleasure of watching Evyn Charles perform on several occasions. From weddings, to holiday parties, to everything else in between, Evyn’s style of music is fitful for any occasion. Evyn a master guitar player and singer and his catalog of music is HUGE! I honestly don’t think there’s a single song he doesn’t know know how to play! If you demand nothing less than a perfect «10» for your party’s entertainment Evyn is your go-​to guy.

I only met Evyn once but I’m pretty sure that’s all it takes. He is a damn good singer and does it with a love for music which sets him apart.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time listening, requesting songs, singing and tipping him for what turned out to be the most fun night I had on my week vacation in the Los Angeles area.
Keep up the great work Evyn and the next time I’m in SoCal, I’ll definitely be stopping by to hear and see you sing and play those awesome tunes!

As a fellow alum of Berklee with Evyn and having met him at several Berklee sponsored songwriting events here in LA I have to say I am mightly impressed with both Evyn’s voice, his songwriting and overall musicianship.
He has an excellent ear, a good sense of lyrical sensibility, timing and rhythm. He is the complete package. And with my own personal bias I am quite partial to his original song rocketship of love. It has wonderful chordal voicings, he sings it really well with passion and conviction and takes complete ownership of the song.
I hope he continues to pursue his original songwriting and takes it to a commercial level. Good luck with all of your efforts Evyn, I know you’ll do well!

Evyn is a great musician, vocalist, and all around nice guy.
Ive been a fan of Evyn’s for years and recently got to see him perform at the Warehouse in the marina, though i know his usual spot is at Tony’s. Excellent as always! He does wonderful covers of others’ music as well as some original work. Evyn has an awesome sense of humor and is always engaging the audience. I’ve got a wedding coming up and Evyn is definitely at the top of my list.
Check him out if you can. You’ll have a great time!

My wife and I semi regularly go to Tony’s on the Pier in Redondo. We love going on nights that Evyn is playing. When we were picking out a musician for our wedding it was a no brainer to ask Evyn. He was extremely helpful and friendly with everything. He was there promptly on time and was a great addition to our wedding while being very sociable with everyone there! We hope he had as great a time at our wedding as we did having him there. My wife wanted a particular song to walk down the aisle to, and Evyn learned it for us! He has great musical talent and is great to listen to. I would definitely recommend for anyone looking for someone to play any event to consider Evyn.

Evyn Charles performed at our recent 25th anniversary party and all I have been hearing ever since is «Wow! Where did you find him! He was so fantastic!» from our relatives. When people of all ages, from teens to their 80s, are singing along and having a great time, Evyn Charles must be doing something magical. He definitely spiced up the event and gave it a flair it never would have had otherwise. I would recommend Evyn to anyone. We also appreciated that before the big day, he went over his song list with us so he would know what we like. He was a pleasure to work with and I can’t say enough how wonderful he was. I would certainly hire him again!

Evyn Charles was the accompanist for our wedding ceremony in August 2005, and he was amazing! We actually hired him at the last minute after failing to find a musician to fit our needs, and it was one of the best decisions we made. We wanted «What a Wonderful World» for our processional, and mood music during the hors d’oeuvres. Not having a wedding planner, it didn’t even occur to us to request that he also play during the pre-​ceremony, when guests were arriving and milling about, waiting for the event to officially begin… but lucky for us, Evyn was a true professional and jumped right in,. His music was beautiful and unintrusive, setting the mood perfectly. It was lovely not to have to worry about it and just see him take the reigns. He was punctual, reliable, professional, friendly… everything I’d look for in a musician for a special event. I highly recommend him!

Evyn Charles did an outstanding job at our wedding! We were very pleased with him and his service.
From the beginning when I asked Evyn to sing at our wedding and play his guitar he was very kind and helpful. He offered great advice and wedding prep guidance but left plenty of room for us to customize things the way we wanted.
We had a lot of things at our wedding that did not go according to plan from the photographer, videographer, to the wedding coordinator’s services but one thing that went perfect was Evyn Charles. He delivered as promised.
I would absolutely recommend Evyn Charles. He is very talented and a lot of fun. Thank you Evyn!
