Description

There are moments in life whose impact is contained in the beauty of silence. Then there are those moments in our lives that require a soundtrack. For the latter, no act can compare to the outstanding musicality and sheer talent of Kai Alece & Company.

Kai Alece & Company have spent nearly a decade establishing themselves as a singular force for reckoning on the music scene. Armed with exceptional artistry, Kai Alece and her ensemble of talented musicians have graced the stages of numerous venues, weddings, corporate functions, fund raisers, festivals, special events and parties in the U.S. and abroad. This group has traveled as far as Korea creating memories and collecting accolades from audiences who have been won by the band's engaging stage presence, bewitching charm and extensive song repertoire that includes cross-genre chart toppers from the 50s through today.

Kai Alece & Company have earned a reputation for bringing heart and soul to every single event. They have mastered the art of moving an audience – whether by Kai Alece's amazing vocal prowess, or by creating the perfect musical interlude to mellow the mood, or even by the electricity experienced when eight virtuosic musicians unleash on a crowd of people who want nothing more than to dance all night.

Meet the voice... For more than a decade, Ms. Kai Alece has been wowing audiences with her soulful voice and brilliant artistry. A seasoned performer, Kai Alece is one of the best on-stage personalities in the business, owning every square inch of stage on which her high heels tread. Her superb vocal talent is bested only by her warmth, humility and accessibility. Kai Alece is the quintessential music professional - a fiercely gifted jazz, soul and pop vocalist unashamed to share herself with the audiences that absolutely fall in love with her passion.

Meet the band... With more than half a century of combined playing experience, the band is made up of nine (and up to twelve) of the finest musicians in the country. Individually, each member holds his own as a trained musician in his own right. These are true artists, players who have backed some of the biggest acts in the world. As a collective, the Company emits a single wall of sound encased in the sweet groove of what is arguably the world's tightest rhythm section.

For mood and ambiance… Each event is different, but the goal is always the same – to make a memory. Kai Alece & Company can provide just the right mix of class and sass for any event. Whether your event calls for instrumental tunes to keep the evening relaxed and easy, or if your crowd is made up of connoisseurs of the fine arts who would appreciate an evening of jazz, Kai Alece & Company are committed to setting the right mood for the right event at the right time.

But when it's time to dance… Get ready for a hand-clapping, foot-stomping, chorus-singing performance from Kai Alece & Company. If you're old enough to remember the chorus to Wilson Pickett's version of Mustang Sally, you're probably young enough to know the hook to Let's Get it Started by The Black Eyed Peas. So bring your soft-soled shoes, and keep a glass of water nearby because Kai Alece & Company have one mission and one mission only – to bring the house down.

Feedback

  • Kai Alece did an utterly fantastic job! She senses the mood of the crowd and then really gets in tune with them. Her voice is wonderful and she can change gears without missing a beat. The whole band just melded together with everyone and it resulted with everyone having such a great time that we asked her to stay an extra hour so the wedding could continue. Her band can do any type of music and she was so accommodating all throughout the wedding. The sad part is that we live so far away from her that we can't hear her over and over again. This is truly a wonderful band and if anyone gets a chance to use them for any special event, they will not be disappointed. Great job Kai!! Thank You so much for a wonderful evening of music at our daughters wedding. Richard and Karen Parsons - Parsons/Smith Wedding 5/19/07. -- Kerry P, Thomasville, GA, 5/19/2007
  • Gigmasters should have an extra bonus rating reserved only for the very few bands that can make your event truly special. If they did, Kai and her band would be impossible to book. We just had a beautiful wedding and, lucky for us, found out that the best way to make an event memorable is to hire a great band. We had so much fun dancing that by the time the night was over, we had broken the dance floor not once, but twice. If they are available for your next event, book them while you can. -- Scott J, Jacksonville, FL, 5/5/2007
  • I had the overwhelming task of planning my wedding solo for approximately 250 wedding guests. Trying to find an artist/band with all the choices out there was overwhelming. I heard about Gigmasters from a friend and looked at about 8-10 artists. Kai's CD and DVD sold me. I didn't even have to go see her perform. Kai was the most professional out of all the vendors I dealt with. My husband and my song was by a country band, and I just asked if Kai could do anything with it, knowing it was probably not her genre...she learned it within two weeks! She also personalized my father/daughter dance...unbelievable. I cannot tell you how many of my guests raved about Kai and her band...not the food, not the cake, not the flowers, Kai, Kai, Kai! That day was the most special day to me to date and Kai Alece made it so much more! Thank you, Kai! P.S. All of you reading this review...you better book her before someone else does! -- Juli S, Jacksonville, FL, 4/8/2006
  • WOW! I looked long and hard for you, Miss Kai Alece... sure, there were many talent agents in Orlando to go to for a Lead Singer in Orlando. But, I wanted true, amazing talent - a voice that would bring tears to my eyes... and you were it! Your voice is a true blessing. Thank you so much for your participation in our Corporate Event. Everything about you was of utmost professionalism, even in the midst of last-minute changes and chaos - you were so flexible and easy to work with - all with a smile. Cheers to your future... a very bright one! Betsy Poley Liquid Productions betsy.p@liquidproductions.biz Hired for: Corporate Event in Orlando, FL Date: July 22, 2005 Audience: 1,500 What: Lead Vocalist - backed by 23-piece Orchestra What: Lead Vocalist - singing to track -- Betsy P, Orlando, FL, 7/22/2005
  • Kai Alece is gifted with an utterly georgeous and versatile voice that makes the soul soar and yet anchors one with warmth and intimacy. What a blessing to have been in the presence of such astounding and beautifully mature talent. She sings a capella with grace, ease and soulful power. Coupled with amazing back-up vocals, her performance at our wedding was stunning, inspiring, a memory that all of us present will forever cherish. We were so fortunate to have caught this rising star. Drawing upon the richness of a gospel and jazz background, Kai Alece has crafted a niche of her own worthy of distinction and we truly look forward to following her continued success! -- Travis F, Gainesville, FL, 5/29/2005
  • She was WONDERFUL! I cannot tell you how fantastic she was. Singing 'At Last' at the end of our ceremony, with such a powerful voice a capella, was amazing. Everyone had tears in their eyes! And then the reception, with 'If I Ain't Got You' for our first dance, I will never forget how special she made our whole wedding! Thank you, Kai Alece, for taking the ball and running with it, getting everyone up dancing, and for impressing all of our guests with your talent. We really had a great time! Thank you! Mr. and Mrs. Greg and Ami Ira -- Ami W, Jekyll Island, GA, 9/16/2006
  • ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!! Our wedding reception would not have been nearly as wonderful as it was if it were not for Kai Alece & Company. Many of our guests told us that they had been to many weddings, and none of them had a band anywhere near as good as Kai's group. We also asked them to learn THREE new songs for us, all of which they performed beautifully. Thank you so much for everything, you guys! For those of you considering a band for a wedding or special event, you are crazy not to book Kai Alece & Company. They are the best!!! -- Kate W, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL, 6/5/2010
  • WOW!WOW!WOW! We listened to the songs they posted on gigMASTERS and knew they were good, but that was nothing compared to how talented this band is! I am a wedding planner and have heard a LOT of bands, and I am not just saying this because it was my wedding but this band was by far THE best! Everyone there was talking about how amazing Kai Alece & Company was! They played oldies and the newest and latest! It was GREAT! They were perfect! No matter what type of event, if you want to guarantee your guests a great and memorable time... Hire Kai Alece & Company! Donny and I can not thank you enough!! -- Chanell C, Palm Coast, FL, 5/14/2010
  • Absolutely fantastic sounds, very accomidating -- Ricki F, Tampa, FL, 10/29/2011
