Jon & Tessa played at my daughters high school graduation party on June 20th and their performance exceeded my expectations. Not only are they both unbelievably talented, but they were also friendly and professional. I would not hesitate to hire them again in the future or recommend them to anyone. Thank you for making a special night for our family even more fun and amazing! More...

We hired Jon & Tessa to perform for a private party on New Year’s Eve in CT. Their performance was beyond our wildest expectations. Jon is cool, charismatic, incredibly gifted, and super talented. Tessa is the perfect compliment, and accompanist, and an absolute pleasure to be around!! His country covers are amazing: Wallen, Bryan, Combs, Kahan, Stapleton, Jelly Roll, you name it, he crushed it. Jon even did a country version of Post Malone’s Circle that could be on the radio tomorrow! He really shined when he sang his originals though, you can tell they mean a lot to him and we really enjoyed them. This was a New Year’s party that we’ll never forget at a time when we really needed it. I would highly recommend Jon & Tessa. They are awesome. More...

Jon River and Tessa made my wife’s birthday absolutely unforgettable! From the moment I reached out to Jon, we connected instantly.
I shared my vision of surprising my wife for her special day, and despite already having another booking earlier, Jon and Tessa enthusiastically made it happen and joined us for our celebration.
Their energy was incredible, and they brought the party to life with their music. Every guest sang along to every song, creating an electric atmosphere. It’s been three days since the event, and friends are still texting me, calling it the party of the decade!
Jon and Tessa’s passion for music and genuine connection with the crowd turned the night into something truly epic. My friends and I are already looking forward to jamming with them again, and this might just become an annual tradition!
Hats off to Jon and Tessa for sharing their love of music and making the night one for the books. Highly recommend them for any event—you won’t be disappointed!

Jon made our family reunion party a huge HIT! From my 1st correspondence in meeting Jon (via email) to meeting him in person, I was at ease that he was going to provide outstanding music with professionalism all the way!
He was all that AND super personable and adaptive to my family! He made my Dad feel so special too for his 86th birthday and sang Happy Birthday.
🎉🎊 what a fabulous addition to our special time together!!! Thank you, Jon and Tessa (girlfriend who also played guitar).
HIGhLY RECOMMEND 🙌🌈🎉😀

I’ve worked with Jon several times and he’s always great! Gets the crowd going, has a vast catalog of songs and very professional and of course has a great voice !!!

Jon River blew me away with his range of covers from Johnny Cash to John Mellencamp to Kings of Leon. And when he sings and strums that Taylor guitar on one of his favorites, you’ll feel that tug right at your heart-string! His originals are fire too! I’ll sing along with a gentle “ooo” on his song “The Few” then get all moody with “Unreal”. And, yet he tugs my heart again with his lyrics and guitar licks on “In this Together.” All I can say is Jon’s soulful and sometimes playful style is most appreciated live! More...
