March 21, 2025Mr. Kenny Karr was an absolute professional!
We loved having Kenny Karr at our event! He played some really great tunes for our corporate event. Even though the outside elements didn't work out to our advantage, Kenny remained professional and understanding of the circumstances. I highly recommend Mr. Karr for your next event.
