Review by Amy H.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on October 6, 2007From Duxbury, MA

Ken was absolutley wonderful! He played continuously and he had a fantastic selection. In addition, I gave him a list of requested music prior to the party, and he learned all of it. I am so glad that we chose him for the event. I can not wait until we have another event so that we can hire him again.

WeddingReviewed on May 5, 2006From Providence, RI

I hired Ken for my very non-traditional wedding day; which included a 20 minute ceremony and a 3 hour cocktail reception held in the same place. Ken provided the music for both the ceremony and for the entire reception. He was the only "entertainer" and his beautiful talent resonated throughout the large home where it all took place. I would have liked to have had him featured more, but logistically it just didn't work (although to no fault of Ken's). Nevertheless, his fancy finger work added a wonderful backdrop to a spectacular and laid-back evening. Ken took all the special requests I had and we worked together consistently for months (via e-mail) to ensure that both my mother and I were equally as satisfied; she got her Gershwin standards and I got my Stevie Wonder. I would recommend Ken for any kind of event. He is truly a professional who is not only easy to work with, but a pleasure to do business with. Thanks Ken for all your hard work! It was truly a pleasure to work with you!!! Take Care! Nicole and Stephen Blount

Ken was incredible. Everyone raved about him. Very nice to work with as well. Feel very lucky we found him. More than willing to serve as a reference if you ever need one.

Mr. Watson was accommodating, thoughtful, and helpful at every opportunity, as I planned the music for my wedding reception. When my musicians weren't able to arrive early enough to play music before the ceremony, Mr. Watson offered to play and even let us use his excellent digital piano for the ceremony. He arrived early, stayed late, and seemed to magically reappear in just the right place as the guests moved from the ceremony to the cocktail hour to the dinner. I myself am a pianist and accompanist, and I was astounded by Mr. Watson's talent, skill, and repertoire. I cannot recommend him more highly, and I look forward to working with him again very soon.

We were delighted with Ken's performance. The piano music set a perfect background as we celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary. He is talented, poised and professional.

Ken was amazing. Not only was his music beautiful, he was very accomodating when I had problems with my church. He met with the church music director and was very supportive. Guests raved about how beautiful and classy the ceremony music was. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Graduation PartyReviewed on June 2, 2007From Boston, MA

Ken Watson entertained at a College Reunion Dinner and was praised by all in attendance. His background music was appropriate in volume to allow conversations, was designed for the audience tastes, and was a perfect complement to the evening event.

Ken was great, we didn't have to worry about him at all, he was a class act the entire time.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on December 17, 2006From Providence, RI

We wanted background music for my father's 90th birthday party and Ken performed it beautifully. He came a half hour early so he was playing as our guests arrived. He played the types of music we requested and at just the right sound level where we could enjoy the music but also talk without a problem. Ken is an excellent musician that I would not hesitate to hire again or recommend to anyone.

ChristeningReviewed on December 21, 2006From Chestnut Hill, MA

THE OCCASION WAS NOT A CHRISTENING AND IT WAS NOT ON 12/22. IT WAS A HOLIDAY PARTY ON 12/20.

ChristeningReviewed on November 24, 2006From Mansfield, MA

This was actually a wedding, not a Christening. I must have clicked the wrong box when I booked the event. Also, the venue changed as well. The wedding was held at The Primavera in Millis, MA. Ken was wonderful. His music added the perfect touch to our ceremony and cocktail hour. I received complements from our guests as well. I would definitely recommend this performer. Thanks so much.
