"Kevin is a perfect choice for anyone's wedding day. His music is beautiful, gentle, and from the heart. Our wedding was nothing short of blessed by Kevin's special touch." - Rob and Alyssa Hosbach (San Luis Obispo, CA) If music is going to work well with just a voice and guitar, it has to be something special. With his unique blend of folk, Gospel, country, and R&B, Kevin Toqe makes music that appeals to all age groups while not sacrificing depth of lyric. Like James Taylor and John Mayer, Kevin crosses stylistic boundaries and creates music with a groove to clap to and lyrics that leave you thinking about your life. What makes Kevin unique is his emphasis of spiritual and emotional depth to each song — approaching weddings and events with artistry and the Spirit, not just as someone taking "wedding singer" gigs to pay the bills. Also, Kevin's versatility to switch from guitar to piano seamlessly to vary the musical setting — not even accounting for the many professional quality musicians who are able to join in with him as a band depending on your setting. From often-requested originals to uniquely arranged covers, you'll have plenty of material to choose from - all of which fits into a unique folk/R&B/pop style. Pricing/rates are as custom as your music will be, so contact Kevin and get the conversation going. For Kevin's complete cover song list, see "complete cover song list" Press Kit. ***PLEASE specify if you're looking for mostly cover songs because the needed prep time for certain kinds of cover music can greatly vary. Let's talk! Best-fit events for Kevin: * Weddings & private events* University Events * City and/or civic events (ceremonies, meetings, etc.) * Local benefits (hospitals, fundraisers, etc) * Fairs, festivals, & parades. For complete artist info, search "Kevin Toqe" on Google. *MORE CLIENTELE REVIEWS* "I'm sincere when I say that having Kevin play at our wedding was absolutely a highlight of our day. The ceremony music added so much to such a special moment, I loved walking down the aisle to beautiful live music, and we even got to do our first dance to his own 'Love is.' He was so easy to work with, and I never had a worry that the music wouldn't be what I wanted! Would totally recommend him!" - Leah St. Pierre (San Francisco) "Kevin was great to work with. He was able to take a song that I liked that had three versions and combine all their best elements together into exactly the arrangement that I was looking for. The song that I walked down the aisle to was unique, exactly what I wanted, and perfectly timed—crescendoing just as the doors opened for me to walk down the aisle! Thanks Kevin for being flexible and doing an amazing job!" - Krista Adams (Monterey, CA) "Kevin was such a blessing. I happened to walk by when he was playing music outside a restaurant one beautiful day. His music touched my heart, and I thought to myself, 'He would be perfect to play at my dad's celebration of life.' He was amazing and made the party a great success." -Donelyn Haisley (Benicia) "Kevin was amazing! I enjoyed his music so much, and he brought such a great style and presence to our wedding! It wouldn't have been the same without him there! Thanks again!" - Kim W. (Fairmont)

Review by Emma H.

WeddingReviewed on August 4, 2013From Sonoma, CA

Kevin is AMAZING! He provided music for our wedding's outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. Kevin was so accommodating during the planning process and helped us with suggestions and advice. He learned 3 songs specifically for our ceremony, and performed them beautifully! His 2 musical interludes during the ceremony moved everyone to tears. We got so many compliments on Kevin's amazing voice and talent! Kevin's music made our ceremony special and unique to us. He is a wonderful person and musician and my husband and I (and my family and friends) highly recommend him!

Kevin was perfect for our event. My daughter and guests loved his voice and his original songs. He was professional, and very easy to work with. He worked well with our DJ, and kept everyone of all ages entertained throughout the ceremony and dinner.

Review by Allison D.

Wedding CeremonyReviewed on May 9, 2012From Saint Helena, CA

We hired Kevin for our intimate winery wedding ceremony . He was very responsive throughout the process from the initial contact, through the planning & on through the actual ceremony date. Kevin executed everything perfectly: playing/singing the processional "Feels Like Home" and then softly playing instrumentally throughout our ceremony. He did a fantastic job entertaining our guests during our champagne toast & while we were off taking photos. Kevin's song 'Home Is' was perfect for our impromptu dance. We accidentally overpaid him (in addition to our tip) & he contacted us immediately but we said keep it because he was worth it! Kevin is very talented (&sweet)!
