“There was so much excitement when Will Hale performed at our school. He has a great presence in connecting with the kids. When I looked around, even the adults were having a good time.” – Joe Dockendorf – Principal – Eastview Education Center – Monticello, MN

“Will was great to work with! The portable, battery-powered sound system worked especially well for our event, allowing us to move the concert to a field and easily coordinate social-distance logistics. We definitely plan to work with Will again!” – Priya Tandon – Recreation Supervisor – City of Chanhassen

“Will Hale had an impressive performance by interacting with the kids safely amidst a pandemic. He was able to create many positive responses from the crowd throughout his performance. His wireless setup was very convenient for setup and take-down. I can tell Will Hale is very comfortable and very experienced in what he does.”
– Colton Nieman – City of Inver Grove Heights – Parks & Recreation
