Steve Kenley is a singer/guitarist in the Washington DC area. He plays daily in Washington-area clubs and restaurants, and with the bands RSVP and The New Thirty. As a solo act, Steve sings and plays acoustic guitar and harmonica.

Review by Janice C.
Wedding•Reviewed on April 8, 2024•From Alexandria, VA
I can’t say enough about how wonderful Steve is! He performed at our wedding ceremony and reception. Steve is very talented, attentive to our questions and song requests, and just an overall kind person. We received multiple compliments throughout the evening regarding his talent! We’re so thankful we found Steve and would highly recommend him for any event!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 23, 2023•From Haymarket, VA
Steve Kenley was a guitarist/singer at my son’s wedding. We held it at an Airbnb, and it was a small affair. Steve was definitely the icing on the cake and made our day so much more special. He played music from a variety of genres that appealed to all ages. From instrumental background music to singing and playing everything…. it was perfect! He arrived early and required very little assistance in order to set up. He also was very accommodating when it came to relocating for the ceremony. I highly recommend Steve Kenley as an amazing asset to any celebration!

Celebration•Reviewed on May 16, 2023•From Leesburg, VA
Steve was awesome! He reached out right after booking asking if there were any special requests. He arrived early, was plesant to work with, and read the "mood" of the room. Played great songs, has an awesome voice, and a joy to work with. I highly recommend Steve for any party!
