Amazing talent, wide song catalog

Our block party was taken to the next level by Kevin’s exceptional performance. He chose the perfect mix of songs and genres for all generations, even took some requests. He was punctual and professional throughout. Our pup Riley took to him immediately. He even fixed our neighbor’s 4 year old daughters bike after a little mishap. Highly recommend!

Amazing band!

Kevin was very professional and had good communication. Unfortunately something came up where Kevin couldn’t perform at our wedding but he let us know right away and set us up with his friend Tyler instead. We were very appreciative of him being upfront with us and making sure our day still went accordingly and smooth. Tyler was just as good and professional as Kevin and Kevin’s band was fantastic. All told the music at our wedding was stellar !! They played what we liked, helped introduce our speakers and got the party moving. Absolutely recommend Kevin and his friends!

An outdoor Rehearsal Dinner Gig

It's hard to place the correct star at the top of this review because if I were to rate the talent of Kevin Babb, It would be a 5 star. We enjoyed his vocals. However, the stars start dropping with his personal performance. First off, he was late.... most of my guests had arrived and the food was being set up by the time he came. He played canned music most of the night...only performed a small amount of the time. If I wanted canned music, I would have hooked my Bose to a speaker and saved my money. But the biggest part of his time, he drank our wine and beer and sat in a chair just outside our tent area and many of our guests thought he was an invited guest also. So that rating would probably be a 2 (and that's being overly generous). With those two separate ratings, I guess he would fall into the middle (a three)

Response from Kevin Babb:

Hi Christine! Thanks for the review. I will have to rebuttal with you never entered the address so if I didn't have to wait for a call back once I got to your area, I would've been on time. As far as the "canned" music, that was just ambience/break music for your guests when I wasn't performing and during setup/break down. I disagree with you when you say "most of my time" was spent off stage. These type of occasions are interesting because I am primarily background music. Even when your guests were listening, it was few from my point of view so I thought the best way to be effective was to provide easy going music. I apologize if I didn't specify break times before hand. That was a miscommunication on my end. As far as the wine goes, I recall you telling me to indulge. I personally do not feel like the wine played part in my performance. Either way, I did enjoy spending time with you and your guests! Thank you so much for having me. If you would like, I can offer you a discounted rate on another performance. Let me know! :)

Fun band!

Kevin and his band did our wedding reception. They did a mix of band and DJ. They were really easy to get a hold of and fun on site. However, I was a little disappointed in the DJ songs as I made a list and only 2-3 of the songs I wanted were played. They ended up playing music people liked, but there were quite a few songs that really meant something to me that weren’t played. So just make sure you over communicate if something is important. Overall Kevin has a great voice and demeanor and I would definitely hire them again.

You can expect professional music played at the appropriate volume for what your event calls for. I have a portable PA system with extra microphones incase a speaker is present.

About

2024 is my 14th year playing music for a living! I got my start on Main St. in St. Charles Missouri. That blossomed into being a contracted entertainer for the Saint Louis company LHM(Lodging Hospitality Management) of which I have been with since 2012. I pride myself on being customer service oriented in being the perfect music for any occasion! Ranging anywhere from Jack Johnson to Van Halen, James Taylor to John Mayer and tons of great music in between. Theres something for everyone!
