Kevin did an absolutely amazing job from the moment he arrived until the moment he left! anytime we had any kind of request he went out of his way to accommodate, he was willing to participate in a game that he ended up having to MC, and our guests kept telling us all night long that he was doing a great job! All in all, I would highly recommend Kevin, he was great to work with, extremely professional, on time, set up and broke down quickly, and it was generally just a great experience to work with him!

Kevin is a wonderful musician booking him for a party and we cannot wait. Met him through his bartending, he gave me and my friends amazing service. He's the type of person you meet once and remember for a lifetime!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My minimum fee is $500. Typically I can perform solo for up to 3 hours for that price.
Because every project is different, I'm happy to provide custom price quotes tiered for up to a 3 piece band. That way you can find the perfect balance for your budget and music entertainment needs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically the customer will email me to start the conversation. We'll then schedule a quick call to go over specifics.
From there, I will issue a contract and take a 50% deposit to hold the date. Any questions and follow up calls are welcomed once the date is confirmed.
The balance is due on the day of the performance.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I was classically trained at Saginaw Valley State University, where I performed classical pieces in front of multiple juries throughout my time there.
