For our 40th wedding anniversary celebration we wanted a band that could provide dance music, special requests and good listening. We hit the jackpot with the Kevin Cline Trio. They played exactly what we wanted all evening. Along with being superb musicians they're funny, friendly, enthusiastic and enjoy what they do. They added the perfect touch to our party. We couldn't have asked for a better group. I hope they're still playing when we celebrate our 50th. Thank you so much to Kevin and the trio. Nancy and Roland Woodruff

Kevin Cline was great. Their range allowed us to tailor the group to our needs and the tastes of our guests. They had a great range and showed alot of flexibility. Aside from that we enjoyed having them in our homes on a personal level. I highly recommend them.
