Ken was so great to work with! He played at my sisters wedding and then I was lucky enough to have him play at mine! Ken is so easy to talk with and makes the process of finding the perfect musician to play at a wedding easy. Ken offered great suggestions to different songs to play and if he didn’t know the song I wanted, he offered to learn it. I had several great phone conversations with Ken as we came up with the perfect songs for him to play at the ceremony. He plays beautiful music which was perfect for the ceremony. Ken also played at our cocktail hour. He is amazing! Such a positive, passionate person who truly has talent!

Ken was absolutely amazing. My fiance and I were supposed to meet up with Ken and a snow storm came in that I was not comfortable driving. Ken was more than accommodating and changed our meeting time. He added great value and input in the entire process of what the feel of our ceremony was, the song choice, and making sure we were happy. I could not recommend him more!

Live music is the best. Ken will provide you with great music that your guests will be talking about long after your wedding day.
Ken is a wonderful musician with a broad base of music styles. We recently performed a wedding together, I found him cordial, helpful, and giving. His renditions of Beatles songs as skillful and memorable.
