- Everyone at the 50th wedding anniversary party was impressed by the sounds of Kimera! Their promptness and extreme professionalism was appreciated on such a crazy day - we didn't have to worry about a thing! They played a beautiful variety of music, instrumental and with vocals, and happily played a list of requested boleros. We were so excited to see even a few of the older couples, who are usually idle in their chairs, get up to dance. The party wouldn't have been the same without such incredible music - thank you, Kimera! -- Celeste J, Laguna Beach, CA, 7/18/2010

- I chose Kimera by listening to them on my computer speakers. Well, I thought they were terrific then, but when they performed for my celebration....they far exceeded anything I had heard on my computer speakers. Daniel is so very professional and he and his other two musicans that accompanied him, were superb. Many, and I mean many, of my guests were so impressed with their talent, as was I. I highly recommend them. -- Joanne G, Los Angeles, CA, 7/18/2009
