• We couldn't have been happier with Ken after hiring him to perform for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. From his talent, professionalism, and willingness to learn special songs for our ceremony, he went above and beyond to ensure we were completely satisfied in every aspect. Many guests commented on his wonderful performance and enjoyed his song selections as well. It was great to have such an organized performer so we didn't have to worry about anything on the wedding day. I would recommend Ken to anyone and everyone looking to work with a professional, friendly & extremely talented performer! -- Jessica P, Cincinnati, OH, 12/31/2011

• I can't say enough about Ken's professionalism, abilities, and overall flexibility! The five stars for each category is exactly how I feel about Ken's performance and his easy going character. The music was exactly what we spoke about on the phone and although he is a jazz pianist he played wonderful classical compositions spiced with some jazz cuts. Let me also say that Ken agreed to drive from Kentucky to Columbus Ohio for this performance and his more then reasonable price was not reflective of his performance! THANKS FOR THE GREAT WORK KEN!!!! -- Stephen B, Columbus, OH, 10/8/2011

I would highly recommend him to anyone. If I ever need a pianist in the future I will schedule my event to correspond with his availability. The service he provided could not have been any better in any way. -- Teresa H, Louisville, KY, 11/6/2010
