Feedback

  • I was so pleased the Mr. Davis' entertaining for the evening. I hope I have another event where I can have him play again! -- Susan B, Ashland, KY, 5/29/2009
  • Ken Davis is the REAL DEAL if you want excellent jazz music. My guests continuously complemented the level of talent and entertainment value exhibited by Ken. Some guests indicated they would hire him. He was very professional, extremely accommodating, and very nice to work with both in planning and during my reception. He was prompt, and I felt that his rates were the most reasonable and competitive. I absolutely recommend Ken to anyone interested in hiring a performer. Overall I had an EXCELLENT experience. Ken did an unscripted backup keyboard performance on a song I sang live. He was impeccable. I’d hire him again! Dr. Teneng, University of Louisville, KY -- Ivo T, Louisville, KY, 5/9/2009
  • Great job Ken! You did a fabulous job. We'll be calling you again soon! -- Chandler S, Cincinnati, OH, 3/26/2009
