  With Grace and Beauty!

  Over the last couple of years my wife and I have been treated to the wonderful singing of Lia Menaker. Our first experience was at our 50th wedding anniversary party where she sang the song “Follow Me” by John Denver. We had not heard it so beautifully sung since our wedding day.
  
  Inspired by that experience, I invited her to sing at two community events celebrating women who had given so much of their time and talent to caring for children in the community. Her rendition of “You are the Wind Beneath My Wings”, the Bette Midler song, brought the house to their feet with applause.
  
  Singing is a gift to be shared.
  With grace and beauty, Lia is in tune with both chords.

  This is so kind Thomas! It was an honor to be able to bring music to all these events. 50 years is a beautiful, amazing milestone of marriage - and you have such a great community over there attending the events! Thank you for having me.

  A true artist and professional

  Lia brought the best of both worlds as a performer for our cocktail hour. She’s such a talented, comfortable performer that really opened up the room and the mood of our guests. Her voice is awesome and has character and quality that is different from most wedding performers I’ve seen, and we had so many people coming up and complimenting her voice and performance.
  
  In addition to her being a great artist, she was a real pleasure to work with through the logistical side of things. She was very organized, and made the process simple and only needed a handful of discussions to really understand what we wanted and she took it and ran. The times we did talk I could tell she was prepared and getting exactly what was needed to move forward, and didn’t make us constantly check back to tie up loose ends - which was really nice when you’re planning a wedding and communicating with a lot of people.
  
  All in all, 10/10 experience with Lia.

  Great Music and Ambiance

  Full service very accommodating. Live music really brought something special to our wedding. Lia provided music for our Ceremony and Cocktail hour (piano and singing) and sang with a band for our reception. Very professional and gave us a great day of music!

  Lia creates a magical and romantic atmosphere

  We had an intimate backyard wedding and during the cocktail hour between the ceremony and the reception, Lia sang and played keyboard. She let us choose the set list and was kind and responsive throughout the whole process. She brought all her own gear and we didn’t need to worry about a thing. The guests absolutely loved the entertainment, she is fabulous and so talented! With stunning vocals and dreamy piano accompaniment, Lia creates precisely the magical romantic atmosphere that you want at your wedding. Book her now, you will be so happy!

  World-class artist, generous human

  Lia delivers her signature sound with relaxed warmth in any setting. Her voice is deep and rich - completely enchanting - and her demeanor with guests is gentle but direct, serene, and generous. She is prompt and respectful, and set-up and break-down were easy too. I treasure and highly recommend Lia as a person, collaborator, and artist.

  Could not have been happier!

  I hired Lia for an Art Event I was running for a local Land Trust. The event had guests from their 20s to their 80s, so I was concerned getting someone who would be able to entertain that large of a range. Lia's music diversity and her singing and playing ability by far exceeded anything I could have hoped for. I had numerous people come up to me at the end of the night requesting her information and a business card. She actually ran out! You will not be dissapointed no matter what age you are trying to entertain! Thanks Lia!

  A Great Singer

  Lia helps makes your wedding a great event. All I heard from my friends as Lia sang show tunes at our reception was she should be on Broadway. She has great diction, amazing breath control and a real sense of drama and adventure in her interpretations. I’m so glad we hired her

  Wide variety of styles

  Lia is not only a talented singer, songwriter and keyboardist, she covers a wide variety of styles. Her music is accessible to all age groups. It's hard for one person to appeal to all ages but Lia does it with aplomb and flexibility. I'm a musician and truly appreciate other talented musicians. Lia would be a great addition to any event.

  Professional and a pleasure to work with

  Lia Menaker performed at our wedding on May 25, 2019. She engaged our guests with her beautiful voice and personality that charmed our guests. One song which was a surprise to us that she sang was the famous "At Last" by Etta James. She knocked it out of the park, overwhelmed us and our guests, so happy that we have this recorded on our video!
