I've heard Ken James and they are very good.

We booked with Peter Greco - his band was considered the "sister band" to KJ some time ago.

We had them at our wedding. They were amazing. We still get compliments on how great they were. Very professional and a pleasure to work with. I totally recommend them. FM if you have more questions.

Haha - He was obnoxious!! We spoke with him and he must have said "Ken James" 2 dozen times during our 10 minute phone call.

Re: Ken James of Great Neck (Bruce Saunders Band)

we went to see them-already knowing that we thought we had the band we wanted, but wanted to keep our options open...
the price was great
i wasn't thrilled w/ them b/c they do bigger parties and i wanted something more low-key
plus, i don't think he understood what we wanted

I am using them for a classical/ jazz trio for my ceremony and cocktail hour. I have had the best conversations with everyone from the office and have found them to be a pleasure to work with. The price is unbelievable as well. There was about a minimum of $600 difference between them and everyone ese I looked at.

Re: Ken James of Great Neck (Bruce Saunders Band)

I used KJO, Carl was our bandleader... i couldn't have been more pleased, they played every song i had on my list... the thing i aprreciated the most was they weren't TOO LOUD. that was a concern of mine. Also they were hired for a lot of parties/weddings i knew of and everyone had rave reviews.

Re: Ken James of Great Neck (Bruce Saunders Band)

Ken James was the best! They played at our wedding. I have heard great things at Bruce Saunders and they get everyone up and dancing. He is such a class act.
Every band is a business and his is no different. But he was really wonderful at my wedding and a wedding right after mine I was at. The band was so professional and the music was great. Everyone still raves about him!

FM with any questions!
