This is the kind of situation where I wish I had more options than five stars. Rick is the real deal. I've been picking the songs for over a year for this wedding. When we walked into the ballroom, his set up, look legit ! Complete with an electronic sign that said Isabel and Pedro. It was adorable. Immediately I heard a little bit of jazz music and that's not what I asked for so when I walked over to see what was going on I realize he had a flute and a saxophone. He goes I'm just getting started. Of course I'm gonna play the songs you gave me . I was like OK . Next thing I know he's singing 50% of the songs that I asked for. We were all blown away. He was astonishing! Everybody kept coming up to me. Who is the wedding Singer? He's so good. Some songs he would sing and play with the saxophone .Beyond talented! The plan was for us was to do karaoke at the end of the wedding. He kept letting everybody know that they were welcome to come up and do a karaoke song, and nobody really did. I finally I went up . It took me forever to pick what song I was gonna sing. It's not like a random karaoke spot. This my mom's wedding. The Instrumental song that we walk down the aisle, Was stand by me. My mom had originally asked me to sing it during the ceremony and I said no thank you , but for karaoke at the end of the reception after everybody's had a couple drinks, then it doesn't sound like A bad idea. I had no idea that he was going to join me with the saxophone ! Doing karaoke is already a rush then all of a sudden he joins me with the saxophone. I got the chills.! Well that was just Incredible! Needless to say, I think I might've killed it. LOL Well that's what everybody thinks after two drinks ! I did have a lot of people running up to me, telling me that I didn't amazing job, so that was nice. Then my best friend David did Neil diamond to my mom's favorite song, sweet Caroline . Rick The DJ extraordinaire got on the microphone and made sure That the wedding joined in on audience participation part . Bump bump bump and the So good, so good which was fun for everybody ! It was a perfect way to end the wedding on a high note. The night was Spectacular! I completely advise you to hire this guy for your wedding ,company events ,and holiday parties !!!! He's a one-man show and worth every penny!! #10Stars read more

See all

Rick was an amazing spotlight to our wedding in 2022! So many times I had to look over and see if that was still him singing and playing the sax or did he step away and was a playlist - seriously that's how great and gifted this man is... it was truly a blessing. We also had tons of unbelievable positive reviews from our guests. My wife and I are fans for life and will continue to follow him around for other performances and have him at the top of the list if we need live, professional entertainment. - Bruce & Hollace read more

Absolutely amazing- he has the best music mix and on top of that he has such a good voice and his skills on the saxophone - I was blown away

I actually met Rick at a pizza joint here in Aliante by Costco. Hell of a guy highly recommend this guy. He's got a good sense of humor and I'm sure he's very entertaining with his voice and saxophone that he's been playing for over 30 years . Give him a shot. I'm pretty sure you'll be happy with him and his music! He's from Chicago! read more

One of the most outstanding talents that I have in my booking roster. Mr Parma with his smooth tunes and angelic voice continues to be a staple at Raquel's Jazz Lounge. I keep him in constant rotation because he helps draw an amazing crowd of sophisticated adults. A true crowd pleaser. I encourage ALL to come check him out whenever ur in the IE. He is truly one of the great ones‼ read more

Great voice and sax player. This guy can sing anything. Great voice controll, range and falsetto.

Rick exceeded our expectations at my aunts wedding. I helped Day of the wedding and Rick has awesome communication, sings amazing, plays his instruments, he is engaging and is fully aware of the timeline. I highly recommend Rick for your next event! read more

Rick is by far one of the best! He is serious about his craft. He provided entertainment at two of our events and having him perform was the icing on the cake. He does it all and he has all of his own equipment. But most importantly when he sings you would think that the record was playing. He literally sounds that amazing. If you are looking to add an extra flare to your event look no further. Book Rick for your next event. You can thank me later. read more

Rick You and your band put on a great show at First Fridays at the View in Torrance. Great vocals and musicianship. I look forward to having you and the band perform live jazz again. The crowd really enjoyed you. Daryl Sweeney read more

Saw him play and perform in Whittier! such a good voice, thought it was a recording but it was him all along 10/10

Rick is an awesome and talented musician/DJ. We have used him a few times for family events and never disappoints. His amazing skills with the saxophone and vocals are what keeps us hiring him for our events. He is so friendly and communicates very well. Once event we hired him for was a celebration of life and he went above and beyond. Not only did he make the celebration beautiful and memorable for the family but he made a gift for my aunt in remembrance of the family member. That was such a nice gift my aunt received in the mail from him and all out of his own time and respect for the loss. We appreciate you so much Ricky and will be seeing you again in the future for our events! You need a DJ or a saxophonist who can sing, Rick is your man!! Thanks again Ricky!! read more

Rick is a phenomenal artist. He is able to perform from many different genres ,artists and styles. He performed for a 60th birthday party and everyone at the party was blown away by his performance and professionalism. It is rare to find someone who is as dedicated and committed to providing the best they can bring and Rick does that every time. He has performed at our home numerous times and continues to improve and go beyond our expectations. Thank you Rick I am sure we will see you again soon. Keep up the good work! read more

Rick Parma is a good time! Great musician to keep the party entertained. We use him for all of our parties.

Let me just say the customer service alone is is 5 stars. I have been following Rick Parma for about 15 years he is amazing and both him and his wife are very cool and down to earth people. I've booked with him for 2022, but then we had another scare of COVID-19 and so I had to cancel my party but without hesitation, Rick told me no problem book when I am ready and my deposit will still be good.Not to mention he is a one stop shop entertainer what he could not do he referred me to other people that could. Once I have my party I'm sure my rating won't change. read more

I saw him perforn at Citrus City Grille years ago and got his card. Covid hit but I kept his card. Used him for a couples party in 2022 then a 50th birthday party event in my backyard. Everyone loved him. My neighbors were even on their balconies watching and listening the show. He is very prompt and interactive with guests. He even brought the birthday boy a nice little gift as a token of appreciation. Thank you so much, Rick Parma, for making our events a hit. read more
