KUDOS!

Thank you KOS band for a fabulous evening of entertainment and dancing at our party last weekend. Bruce was especially helpful making the song list - one that everyone could enjoy and dance to. Our crowd included professional and amateur musicians who agree you’re one of the best bands they’ve ever heard.

Very simply, thank you, thank you, a million times thank you. Everybody and I mean everybody loved KOS. Saturday night and at our Sunday morning breakfast, everybody was thanking me for hiring KOS to perform. I also want to thank you for providing the music during the ceremony and cocktail hour. The wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all were perfect and KOS was a HUGE reason why.

Weddings are all about the band. If you want everyone on the dance floor, then you book KOS. Hands down, this band is the most professional, polished, and talented group in the business, and just plain fun. Our daughter threw One Note Samba at them for her bridesmaids; right after that she wanted Take Five to sashay down the aisle. Next, the wedding party was introduced to the Crazy in Love refrain which was fabulous. The crowd loved it. And then KOS took it to another level. Current hits, big dance numbers, and a great crowd that just wouldn’t quit. They couldn’t. KOS would not let you sit in your chair. The music grabbed you and wouldn’t let go. My feet still hurt two days later. Thank you, KOS!

Thank you and the band for performing at the Fredericksburg Cotillion Dance Friday night. Everyone loved the music choices and performances of all the members. The horns on dance floor blew me away! Thank you for a great night!

I can't believe it's been almost 3 weeks since the wedding! I'm finally back in the "real world" and I thought I would drop you an email to tell you what a fabulous job you and all of the members of the band did! You guys were rockin!!! Everyone had a awesome time and loved listening to you guys. A big thank you to Allen for the wonderful job he did on the bride/ groom dance! It was perfect! And I think Dad and I are a Facebook sensation with our Twist and Shout! Thank you for helping make that so special. it played out just how Dad and I always imagined. I just felt sorry Garrett and his mom for having to follow that! Thank you again for EVERYTHING! My wedding was what I had always imagined and KOS was a huge part of that!
