Review by Kathleen M.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on December 22, 2010From Newport, RI

Ken's performance elevated our wedding to the enchanting affair I had envisioned it might be. He is a gentleman through and through and handled every aspect of our arrangement graciously and thoroughly. I never had a moment's worry. His repertoire is extraordinary and he's a gifted player. Given the opportunity and occasion, I'd work with him again without hesitation.

Excellent pianist at the most reasonable price. He was very polite and able to accommodate every request we made even though we had a very non-traditional wedding. If we ever had an event that required a pianist again, I would definitely seek Ken's talents again.

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on October 15, 2010From Framingham, MA

Ken Watson was the absolute best! He set the atmosphere of my daughter's cocktail hour at her wedding reception and we had many wonderful comments of how classy and entertaining he was. We loved his choice of songs and he kept us entertained the entire time. I would love to book him again for another occasion. I would highly recommend him. You wont be dissappointed and he is very reasonably priced too. Thank you Ken! You helped make it a day we will not forget! Your the best!! Ken is a 10 star performer :)

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 11, 2010From Falmouth, MA

Ken was the perfect musician for our Christmas luncheon. He played a mixture of Christmas music with other familiar selections. One hundred fifty five people left the restaurant with smiles on their and had many positive compliments. We look forward to having Ken return for another performance.

Ken was a wonderful addition to our wedding. The variety of music he played during our cocktail hour and dinner was great, and he was a remarkable musician. Many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed hearing him.

Everyone was very impressed with Ken and how he played. After the wedding I had many compliments on how beautiful his playing sounded. Also, during the planning process Ken was very prompt to any questions or e-mail's that I had. We were extremely happy that he was there for our special day.

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on May 25, 2010From Quincy, MA

I was so thrilled to have some live music for our wedding ceremony & cocktail hour - Ken is extremely talented, professional and accommodating and he added so much class to the day!! I felt the atmosphere was greatly improved by having live piano as opposed to having a DJ play songs the entire time, especially for the ceremony. Ken has a wide repetoire of songs to choose from and he plays all of the selections beautifully! He is a pleasure to work with and I coiuld not say enough positive things about his service - you would not regret hiring Ken for your event!!

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 20, 2009From Miami Beach, FL

Ken was an unbelievably good sport when one of my guests and the only two children at the party decided that it would be good to regale the dwindling group with show tunes. The sound of their singing was painful, but Ken's music really shown through. I don't think the poor guy stopped playing all night and everyone commented on how lovely the music was this year. Thanks so much, Ken, for everything, and your contribution to making my annual Christmas party for clients and guests a huge success.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 13, 2009From Swampscott, MA

Ken Watson was PERFECT! He was exactly what I wanted for my party. He arrived on time and ready to play. His musical selections were perfect for my holiday party. Being a pianist myself, I can honestly say that the music flowed in the background, not a wrong note was played! I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a fine musician to lend atmosphere to their event.

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 6, 2009From Lexington, MA

Ken was great. He played beautifully for the full 3 hrs and then some. He arrived right on time and added greatly to the quality of our event. I look forward to booking him for next year's company holiday party.

WeddingReviewed on October 16, 2009From Groton, CT

Ken played for our wedding a few weeks ago, and he was fantastic! We could not have asked for a more perfect musician for our special day. Ken was professional, accomodating, flexible, and easy to work with. Ken went above and beyond to help us personalize our event by learning songs we requested & working with the bride's brother to accompany a vocal solo during the ceremony. We highly recommend Ken for your event without reservations, and hope that we will have another occasion to hire Ken in the future!!!

WeddingReviewed on August 13, 2009From Haverhill, MA

Overall, the experience was excellent. I felt bad that I was not present when he first showed up but upon my arrival there was wonderful music being played. He easily coordinated with our Justice of the Peace to get the correct music at the right time. Seamless playing! His rates are reasonable and his talent is excellent. I would recommend Ken to anyone who is in need of a pianist. Using gigmasters.com to book him was easy and his quick response to any questions workout well. Again, overall experience was excellent I would hire Ken again no questions asked.

WeddingReviewed on August 10, 2009From Simsbury, CT

Ken was one of my favorite vendors for my wedding in July. From the beginning, his replies to my emails were prompt, and he gave great suggestions for ceremony music. On the wedding day itself, Ken arrived before I did, and did a wonderful job playing piano during my ceremony and cocktail hour. I would recommend Ken to anyone looking for a fantastic, reasonably-priced pianist.

WeddingReviewed on September 30, 2009From Devens, MA

Ken was excellent at our cocktail hour and created a wonderful atmosphere for everyone. We received numerous comments about how much people enjoyed the ambience created by the light jazz ken was playing. I would and will highly reccomend Ken Watson to my family and friends and anyone planning a wedding for that matter!

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on June 24, 2009From Block Island, RI

Ken was not only highly skilled at his craft, but a real class act. We had two other skilled pianists as guests at our wedding and both raved how well Ken was playing. I give my most enthusiastic endorsement and will hire him in future events.

Private PartyReviewed on August 7, 2009From Falmouth, MA

I hired Ken for a luncheon. He was already playing when we arrived. All of the ladies enjoyed him and complimented him. I will be organizing another luncheon next year and would hire him again. He was polite and professional.
