Joe Aherns is an amazing talent as well as a kind, gentle, trustworthy individual.

In his time with New Perspective, it was very clear that all of our residents loved him and he loved them. Joe was at his best when he was playing his guitar and singing to the folks who lived here. Our resdients, as well as his fellow coworkers, loved it when Joe would sing and play his guitar for them.

Hi Joe,  On behalf of everyone here at Gracewood, I just want to thank you so much for coming out and playing music today. You are not only a great musician, but so personable, and great with the residents. You are very good at what you do, and people are already asking when you are coming back! Thank you so much for brightening everyone’s day. It really means so much.

We booked Joe Aherns as our musical entertainment for our son's high school graduation party.  Joe was a thrill to watch and listen to as he put everything he had into his performance.  His song choices were great as he sang songs that my 18 year old recognized as well as the adults he had in his audience. Joe sounded great as he sang and played his guitar outdoors without accompaniment for an hour and a half. I would highly recommend him for your next special event entertainment.

Our residents love Joe Aherns and Darlin’ Jesse!  He is engaging, interactive, and is passionate about the services that he provides.  The residents proclaim that this “tall guy with the guitar” is very fun and engaging and they can’t wait for his next performance.  Darlin’ Jesse plays a good variety of music from the resident’s era and puts his own special twist on the greatest hits. I would highly recommend Darlin’ Jesse to anyone looking for a fun interactive performance in a senior living, private party, or event!

Not only is Joe a wonderful musician, he's a kind and lovely person to work with.  Always accommodating and flexible when preschool schedules don't always go as planned!

The kids love his music!  We've had Joe perform a number of times and it is always pure joy!

Joe has absolutely one of the best l voices I have heard in many years!! I’ve been an Activity Director for over 30 years, and specialize in music therapy. His laid back style fools you, until you hear that voice.
His variety was so much fun and the range in his voice was amazing!
My residents and staff loved him and can’t wait to have him back!
He is polite, sweet and so very talented! Thanks Joe, you have many new fans in St. Paul!
