Marlon plays regularly for our guests at Beaches restaurant in Barrie. His versatility on piano, guitar and vocals is always a guarantee that all our guests are entertained. He plays perfectly to our clientele, whether they desire quiet background music during dinner and knows when to turn it up and get the place rocking! A definite highlight over the past year Marlon has played for us was New Year's Eve when his 4-piece band kept the place going until the wee hours of the morning! Thanks Marlon...it's always a pleasure having you play at our place and we look forward to many more great nights of great music!

I hired Marlon for our annual Christmas party. I could not be happier with my choice. Everyone had great things to say about Marlon at the office on Monday. I didn't have to worry about a thing...Marlon took care of everything. There is nothing I would have changed about his performance. Thanks Marlon...Great Job!!

Marlon! On November 16 when I walked into the incredible party organized in my honour, I was overwhelmed. The decor was breath-taking, the room was abuzz with old friends. And you were there, pulling it all together with your music! You brought so much to the entire evening. You're so comfortable and capable in so many ways... playing in a background, taking centre stage, performing or writing or both. Thank you for making my whole evening sparkle!

I became acquainted with Marlon Gibbons' music by finding a "bonus" CD included with the purchase of a mindfulness CD. This bonus, an unexpected delight that promised nothing, I found to be breathtakingly beautiful. I have played Marlon's CD (without exaggeration) 242 times for it is a daily practice that seems to improve my writing! So when my stories were ripe for telling, it was easy to choose Marlon Gibbons Music and Media to help me record the stories and cradle them with his original music compositions . I am thrilled with the result! We are moments away from releasing Pandora's Daughters, a CD collection of women's stories of hope. So, not only is Marlon Gibbons' music a source of inspiration, Marlon is a pleasure to do business with.

I recently held a milestone birthday day party for my husband and sister. Marlon was recommended and after receiving a sample play list from him I knew it would be a great fit. I had my choice of the number of band members I wanted and the number of hours I wanted them to play so he is able to work with different budgets. I requested he play a special song that was my husband’s favourite and that was not a problem. The day of the party we moved location due to the threat of bad weather … again no problem. They worked with us in making announcements and providing music between sets. With a great mix of music he catered to the many ages at the party and everyone I spoke to commented on what a fun evening it was. Thank you to Marlon and the band for making Erin and Allan’s birthdays a memorable event.

Marlon played at our Grand opening party and was truly incredible. He is so talented and created an environment of pure entertainment where you could still have a conversation. He is also a great composer...if you haven't listened to his CD, he is truly talented! We had a great time and I try to go to venues where he is playing because he's that good! I would highly recommend him to anyone hosting an event or if someone needs music composed. Thanks Marlon!

Marlon played on the museum grounds as part of our Sunday Evening Concert Series at the Penetanguishene Centennial Museum & Archives. The performance was wonderful, the musical selection was great and the crowd really enjoyed the evening. We had quite a few compliments during his performance, and I would definitely have them back for a concert at the museum.

Nicole, thanks once again! We had a great time and hope to play in your concert series next season! Regards -Marlon

From beginning to end Marlon your service was amazing!! I'm sure it means as much to your other clients as it did to us that you showed up early, dressed professionally, and played the perfect selection at the perfect volume to suit the opening of our Gallery/Studio. I'm still receiving emails from our guests letting me know how great the launch was. Your professionalism and true talent definitely made us all look great to our clients. Without any hesitation you will be the first number we call for any future gatherings. Thanks again so much. Kelly

We were able to book Marlon for our wedding at Rawley Resort in late September and he was a perfect addition! He played during the ceremony, dinner, and into the night and we would recommend him to anyone. Down to earth, professional, punctual and flexible - what more can you ask for! Thanks again Marlon, Amy Hope & Brian Gobien

I have known Marlon for 6 years, and have enjoyed seeing him perform at several venues, both private and public in nature. In addition, I hired him last fall to provide the background music at a tradeshow I was hosting. Marlon offers a wide range of popular music, but I most especially enjoy his own orchestral compositions, and have gifted many friends with copies of his CDs. Marlon is a humble and kind man, with an easy going and accommodating disposition. His presence at any event is sure to bring a smile to the face of your guests.

We have had the pleasure of hiring Marlon Gibbons this year for our Family Fun Day Celebrations. It was an outdoor event with the bare minimum protection from the weather. This however did not deter Marlon. Although the day was damp, Marlon’s playing prevented our spirits from being dampened. Marlon is a very talented musician with a very large repertoire of songs. We found his style and choice of music pleasing to the ear. Marlon played music from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, right up to the present. He entrained our very wet boaters for 3 hours. Several of our patrons asked for Marlons’s business cards in order to hire him for their own events. Would we hire Marlon again…ABSOLUTELY!!! It was a pleasure to have not only a talented musician and entertainer but an incredibly gracious young. Yours truly, Marlene Kasper Dock Supervisor
