About
"The musician that makes your party the one your guests will rave about." I didn't come up with that. It's what clients tell me 99% of the time!
PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTACTING ME 👉🏾 My minimum fee is $1250 for a solo performance. If your budget matches, I would love to put a custom quote together for your special event. Thanks 😀👌🏾🙏🏾
Whether it's playing solo acoustic, with a full band or anywhere in between, I've been performing cover and original songs for over 13+ years. My repertoire spans from 1960s through the present, so there is a little something for everyone! (Ask for my song list!)
For 8 years, I performed dueling pianos over 3-5 nights per week. Then on top of that, I was doing private events as a solo act and singing in contemporary church services. So I'm great with a wide age range, special requests and can assist with event planning. (Please note that while I have lots of experience in praise and worship services, I am not booking church services at this time)
I would love to provide price quotes tiered for up to a 3 piece band. That way you can find the perfect balance for your budget and music entertainment needs.

Kimberly and Jon were amazing! They played at our wedding ceremony and reception and absolutely stole the show! Kimberly played piano during our ceremony, and it was perfect. We requested a couple of specific songs, and it sounded better than we could’ve imagined. Cocktail hour and the rest of reception were a hit too! They were the perfect live-music option for our 35-person wedding but would also be a great choice for a much larger event. Kimberly has a great personality to adjust to the size of the event. Everything was also very organized leading up to the wedding. We would absolutely recommend Kimberly and Jon for any event where you need live music!

Kimberly was amazing! She ended up performing 2 events for us this summer and exceeded expectations. We would highly recommend her for any event that needs a great live music element added.

I loved working with Kimberly for my wedding. Beyond her obvious talents in singing and piano, she was super easy to work with and flexible with my song requests! Hiring her was definitely one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.

To add...she was punctual and added great value to my event. I've never dealt with any professional in the service industry that was as attentive and responsive as Kimberly. After a few interactions through email, I was looking forward to finally meeting the personality behind the joy in the emails. She is great and I would recommend her for any event in a heartbeat!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My minimum fee is $750. Typically I can perform solo for up to 2.5 hours for that price. Because every project is different, I'm happy to provide custom price quotes tiered for up to 3 musicians. That way you can find the perfect balance for your budget and music entertainment needs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically the customer will email me to start the conversation. We'll then schedule a quick call to go over specifics. From there, I will issue a contract and take a 20% deposit to hold the date. I will send a form that the client and anyone involved in the planning can fill out.
Any questions and follow up calls are welcomed once the date is confirmed. The balance is due 7 days prior to the day of the performance.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I started performing solo and in bands while I was a preteen in church. Though I graduated from Belmont University in Nashville, I moved home to Kentucky and started working in corporate jobs. After open-mics and occasional gigs, I started seriously pursuing music in 2010 and went full-time in 2013.
