July 13, 2026Wedding on the Bay
Ken was excellent to work with. His communication from the moment we booked was amazing along with his help in selecting the pieces for the actual ceremony. He took the time to facilitate an in depth pre wedding call to completely understand the brides expectations for her special day.
He provided a wonderful background of upbeat music during the dinner hour and elevated our entire wedding experience.
Would highly recommended him !!!

Ken did a wonderful job at our work event. He arrived on time, communicated promptly and was easy to work with. He picked a good song for the vocal. I am only giving him 4 stars because he misspelt and mispronounced my name multiple times in spite of correction. Overall, his performance as a musician and guitarist was on point.
