December 19, 2025Wonderful Trio
We used this group for our Holiday Party. They were on-time, very professional and a pleasure to work with! The music was fabulous, a mix of Jazz and mostly Holiday music. We were so lucky to have them as we booked them at the last minute (only two-three weeks) ahead of the company event. I would definitely book them again! This is not the best photo but this was them right after set up in the corner!

November 1, 2023Stellar Music and Professionalism
We had Ken and his band play at a private event recently. They played a selection of standards, traditional New Orleans Jazz as well as original numbers. As a jazz enthusiast, I can relate that I was blown away by the level of talent and execution. The music was fantastic and the team was highly professional in every aspect. I highly recommend Ken for your next event.
