Cary was wonderful to work with from the beginning to the end. He is very talented, and it was the perfect fit for our event. We plan to have him back at our event next year!

We hired Cary to sing at my husband's 50th birthday party and he was absolutely wonderful. The crowd loved him and several people took his business card. I had many positive comments from my guests and I would definately recommend Cary for your next party. I will certainly be calling him again!

Graduation Party•Reviewed on July 6, 2009•From Skokie, IL

Cary is a very talented performer. His music selection was perfect for all ages - from young to the older guests. I had so many compliments on how nice he sounded and what a wonderful addition he was to the party. Hearing his music put everyone in such a good mood! My 18 year old graduate continues to tell me what a nice voice Cary had and how good he sounded and I heard similar comments from older guests and my younger 12 year old as well! I would definitely hire him for another event. He's not only talented but a very professional and pleasant person to have around.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 8, 2009•From Barrington, IL

Cary was outstanding. He "made" our event. He showed up early, was ready to go. He was a total professional. He has a great personality that works well with all crowds. Everyone asked about him, everyone wanted to know where we found him. I would without question hire Cary again and recommend him.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 23, 2009•From Lemont, IL

Cary was a great entertainer and many of my guest wanted to know how I found him. He worked very well with the crowd and took on request, even the same song several times. I would use Cary again in the future!!!

Celebration•Reviewed on June 9, 2009•From Chicago, IL

Cary was exactly what we were looking for to bring some fun and lively entertainment to a potentially stuffy business dinner. He got the group singing and bonding and everyone walked away feeling like they just spent an evening with close friends - instead of the business associates they are. I'd highly recommend him to anyone and I'm definitely planning on using him in the future.

Cary was extremely easy to work with. He arrived early and set up promptly. He was very professional on the business end making it easy for us. Musically, he has a beautiful voice and is an excellent musician. If you want premium entertainment for your event, hire Cary Kanno. He will take you up a notch. Thanks Cary.

Private Party•Reviewed on July 18, 2019•From Wilmette, IL

Cary Kanno is Uber talented and can play to every type of audience. This was his 2nd time performing at our 4th of July Back Yard BBQ and we are hoping he'll be back next year for a 3rd year in a row!

Fundraiser•Reviewed on March 10, 2019•From Morton Grove, IL

If we could give more than 5 stars we would. Cary was absolutely FANTASTIC at our auction fundraiser. Everyone loved his music, his charisma, his charm, and he worked seamlessly with our MC for the night. We can not say enough how appreciative we are that he shared his talent with our event and community. I would not hesitate recommending him to anyone looking for a talented singer/songwriter for their event. We hope he's available next year because we'll definitely book him again. Thanks Cary for making our event so special. We couldn't have done it without you!

Cary Kanno was a pleasure to work with. Very responsive via gigmasters, phone, text and emails. He arrived to the event early for set up and even played a little extra after our end time! The group loved his music and he added a little extra something to our office Aloha event!

From booking to Performance Cary was fantastic - very easy to work with and responsive to any of my questions. We had Cary perform for a backyard party and he really brought our event up to the next level. And he is UBER talented with a wide range of music styles - something for everyone!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 6, 2018•From Winnetka, IL

Cary was absolutely fantastic. His music created an incredible vibe for our party and be accommodated all our requests from the Stones to Jackson 5. He even brought a tent which dressed up the music area even more! The guests were over the moon and I couldn’t ask for a better performer for this surprise 60th we threw my mom. Thank you, Cary!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 4, 2017•From Long Grove, IL

Cary was absolutely incredible and so laid back and easy to work with! We had a great phone conversation expressing what we wanted and leveraged his expertise to make it one amazing and unforgettable evening! He even learned the few songs we requested, including a mother/groom and walking down the aisle song with an amazing Cary Kanno twist to them. I would recommend him to everyone- and was willing to add an extra hour onto the event with just a simple ask. Thanks Cary- cant wait to use you again for other important events in the future! -Amy & Donny Siegel, Long Grove Wedding September 3, 2017
