Hi,
My name is Kenny Earnest.
I am a guitarist, singer-songwriter available for weddings, private gatherings & corporate events. With over 400 songs I have an eclectic mix of musical styles that will satisfy most musical tastes.
FACTS:
Looking for that 'special' music for your wedding ceremony/reception(?) or, you want great entertainment for a company event but don't want to pay the [thousands of] bucks for a full band(?) or, you're throwing an annual soiree/party and you want a segue of great music that each & every guest will enjoy(!?). Whatever entertainment needs you have I will make sure that they are fulfilled. Rest assured that, by hiring me, you get not only a top-level performer (one who's always prompt, personable, captivating & courteous) but, also... above all... a consummate professional with years of 'know-how' and entertainment experience. Please do contact me today!
***WEDDINGS:
I can provide all the music for your 'special day', including light cocktail & dinner music and will even learn any special songs you might want as part of your event! If you prefer traditional music for your wedding ceremony I can perform "Canon in D" or perhaps you would like to walk down the aisle to a more contemporary selection like "Marry Me" by Train. I will also assist you (if requested) in choosing appropriate song selections for your wedding ceremony (processional, bride entrance, sand or candle ceremonies, recessional and first dance). I understand how stressful your wedding day can be. I can guarantee that I will return your emails or phone calls PROMPTLY and will always be available to discuss any details or concerns you might have. I will do my part to ensure that the music on your wedding day will be beautiful, inspiring, and above all memorable!
***COCKTAiL HOUR:
I play appropriate song selections tailored to the favorite music style of the bride and groom. I keep all of the music happy and upbeat and of course romantic as well. I will also take requests from the guests! Most importantly I always perform at a volume level that is not overpowering and will allow the guests to easily converse with each other in a normal manner.
***EQUIPMENT:
I have ALL of the musical equipment required for ANY event. I have battery powered speakers in the event that there is no electricity available (beach or park). I can also supply a wireless microphone which can be used by the wedding officiant or for making announcements and toasts!
***HISTORY:
My Dad started me playing guitar at age 10 and I've continually developed my guitar-playing skills, having written more than 150 original songs and special pieces of music. In my career, I've supported such major acts as: The Goo-Goo Dolls, Matchbox Twenty, Glen Frey(The Eagles), John Waite, Eddie Money, Tonic, & Pat Benatar, having also performed at venerable venues like: the Bren Center, Coach House, Galaxy Theater, the Roxy, Verizon Amphitheater & Whiskey-a-GoGo.. and all the memorable gigs in between.
SKYPE ME! If you have a Skype account we can connect and I can perform a song or two for you LIVE on Skype. How is that for service? ;)
Sincerely,
Kenny Earnest

"Kenny performed at my wedding ceremony as well as the dinner reception. He did phenomenal at the ceremony, even though I was completely overwhelmed and nervous while walking down the aisle, I could hear him playing my song and that's what triggered some serious water works! The weather was freezing (unfortunately) but he still managed to strum away for about 2 hours outside. During the dinner reception he played all the songs I personally love and I got dozens of compliments about his performance. He had no problem learning any song requests in advance and was chill about last minute changes. I'd suggest him for anyone, thank you Kenny! "

So talented yet very chill and accommodating. He was able to play exactly the kind of music we were looking for during our wedding reception and he got rave reviews from our guests. He has a great voice and was not an overpowering or demanding performer by any means. Very professional and easy to work with.
I am very happy with our decision - He was worth every penny!"
