Wonderful!

Kim and Jessie were amazing for my Catholic mass and wedding ceremony! They knew the whole order of the mass and all the music to play and paired nicely together for the entrance and exit songs. I would recommend Kim to anyone getting married in the OBX!

Talented Musician!

Kim was a pleasure to work with for our twice postponed covid wedding. She was super flexible, she is very prompt at responding to emails, and everything on our special day was just perfect! I cannot thank her enough for working with us on changing the dates twice due to covid. We had Kim & a violinist and our guests RAVED about the live music. As the bride, I'm not going to lie, my mind was unfortunately focused on other things, but looking back at the video, it's wonderful to enjoy her beautiful music & singing. Highly recommend Kim to anyone looking for live guitar/vocals for their wedding or other OBX events. She is fabulous and you will not be disappointed!

Beach Wedding

Kim was very easy to communicate with. She was quick to respond to questions. She learned a new song that i had requested for our ceremony. Very accommodating and friendly.
