Valentine's Day Party•Reviewed on February 16, 2012•From Costa Mesa, CA
Kano was a pleasure to work with and made Valentine's at our restaurant a truly memorable experience for all of our guests. He came a few weeks in advance to scope out the restaurant, try out the sound and play a few songs for us -- despite it being quite a drive from his home and work.
On the night of, he came early, preformed the entire time and sounded fantastic. He is a master at his craft, a professional, and a true talent. We are hoping to have him back in the restaurant some time soon.
Overall, an excellent performer, and highly recommended!

I hired Kano before I saw him perform live based on his reviews and he performed above and beyond my expectations. Not only was he professional, but very charming and accommodating when my outside party was hit by a freak windstorm. The weather could not have been worse but he and Paloma Rios, a dancer he recommended (who was amazing as well), helped the party smoothly transition to a warmer location. His playing was fantastic, Ms. Rios's dancing was enchanting. I give him my highest recommendation, and look forward to booking him again.
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 24, 2011•From San Bernardino, CA
Kano performed at our Wedding Reception. It was an intimate setting. His style of music went beyond our expectations. All of our guests loved the soothing, enriching sounds. He set the ideal mood for enjoying dinner and conversation with family and friends. He made sure we danced to "our" song; a song that we had requested and he graciously agreed to learn. We will recommend him to our family and friends for future events. Also we will hire him for our own events in a heart beat. Thank you Kano for providing wonderful sounds and an unforgettable evening.
Private Party•Reviewed on September 13, 2011•From Palos Verdes Estates, CA
I am so happy that we chose to work with Kano! We found him to be very professional and friendly and a pleasure to work with. He was available at all times for discussion prior to our event and arrived early with all his own equipment.
Kano has a very cool young and fresh vibe but don't let his looks fool you, he plays with incredible passion and an obvious love for the music. Our special guests from Spain were so impressed by his talent that we couldn't let him go. We asked him to stay for an additional two hours!
I highly recommend Kano for any occasion big or small. He is a wonderful addition to any event and we can't wait to work with him again!
Cocktail Party•Reviewed on July 20, 2011•From Santa Barbara, CA
Kano is so very talented! The ladies just loved him. I hated to see him leave. He is very kind, and professional. Kano drove three hours in heavy traffic, and still managed to be in a good mood, and perform very well. Now, I'm looking for another reason to have him come and play again. You will not be disappointed if you choose him. Very,very, relaxing music. The Best!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 20, 2011•From Newport Coast, CA
I was in need of a classical guitarist for a Birthday celebration at my home.I was impressed that with only three days before the party, I was able to secure Kano to play guitar at my event. Kano arrived on time and was very professional. He is talented and performed beautifully! Kano was very cordial and all of the guests loved all of the music he played.I would definitely recommend Kano to entertain at any event! Kathleen
Anniversary Party•Reviewed on June 13, 2011•From Los Angeles, CA
Kano made our 10 year Anniversary Party magical! I found him to be an accomplished guitarist, his technique impeccable, his attention to the crowd, wonderful. He suggested Flamenco dancer & teacher,“Clarita” of Arte Flamenco Dance Theatre. What a treat & well worth the money. Clarita is old schooled Flamenco not like the wanna-be junk that you sometimes see in LA & other big cities. Her singing,“palmas”, posture, footwork, & passion left us spellbound.
Kano alone was amazing, the two of them transported us to a night in a little Spanish café. I found his playing professional & emotional & showed that he was still“in love”with his guitar…
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on June 12, 2011•From Fullerton, CA
I can't say enough about Kano Flamenco. Kano was very professional at each phase of my wedding planning. He performed the ceremony and cocktail music for my wedding which included a small flamenco performance which made my day unforgettable not only to me, but to our guests. He even learned a Billy Joel song for me which was better than I even imagined. I loved working with him and I will no doubt hire him again for any other event I would plan.
Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on May 16, 2011•From San Clemente, CA
Kano was so professional and went above and beyond to accommodate us on our special day. He played for our ceremony and cocktail hour for our wedding. His music is amazing and I distinctly remember his music playing as I walked down the aisle. It set the mood for our event and made it so special and unique.
There were many people to choose from and I highly recommend Kano! He is not only a nice guy, but professional, dependable, and trustworthy, on time, accommodating, and not to mention- extremely talented!
Thank you Kano for making our wedding so memorable! We would hire him again for another event without a doubt. I would Georgie & Chris

Thank you so much for making our event so special. Your music set the tone for the party and took the party to the next level of success. Most importantly, thank you for being so professional and courteous to everyone. You are such a great talent and you can hear that talent and the love for what you do through your music. It is always refreshing to see a true artist at work on something that they truly love to do. I would recommend you to everyone I know.
For anyone looking for a professional, respectful and an extremely talented artist, look no further than Kano. Not only has he gained a client, but he also gained a big fan!
Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 18, 2010•From Orange, CA
I booked Kano(and a flamenco dancer) for my company Christmas party. It proved to be a very good decision. He was professional, friendly, helpful and reliable. On the day of the event he really provided wonderful entertainment. If I ever need to hire another Flamenco guitarist it would be Kano. Thank you!
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 15, 2010•From Los Angeles, CA
Kano was amazing. His gentle attitude and his transporting play made this party an event our guests will remember forever. Our guests were a group very familiar with Spanish guitar and could not beleive what they were hearing in an intimate familiar setting.
We would not only reccommend him highly, we will no doubt hire him again.
Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 5, 2010•From Camarillo, CA
Kano was GREAT! We met him months before our wedding at a regular gig he plays and he sat at the bar with us with his guitara in hand. Went through some ideas while getting to know us. When our big day came, he nailed it perfectly and the live musicianship was the touch we were looking for. All of our guests were impressed the the choice of music for our ceremony & cocktail hour and we were more than happy, too. Kano is very talented, passionate and professional. A must-hire for anyone looking for that AUTHENTIC flamenco/classical guitarista. Thank you, Kano, for making our special day so memorable!
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 18, 2010•From Los Angeles, CA
The moment we first heard him, I knew he was the one for our wedding. I got many compliments on his music and it added such a special touch to our wedding, it was quite memorable...so glad we hired Kano and I look forward to referring him and hiring him again in the future.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on January 12, 2010•From Los Angeles, CA
Kano FAR EXCEEDED my expectations!! I'm a great admirer of traditional flamenco music. I spent some time living in Spain and am very familiar with authentic flamenco music. Kano really made my birthday party extra special. I was taken away by his incredible passion, spirit and technical ability. It really took me back to my days in Spain. Everyone at my party was captivated by his performance. Aside from Kano's beautiful performance he was professional, reliable and very accommodating. I highly recommend him. Thank you Kano, I will be calling you for my next event!
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 13, 2010•From Riverside, CA
From the first moment I spoke with Kano, I had a good feeling about him. He is down to earth, very professional, and attentive to his client's needs. When I requested a flamenco dancer to perform alongside him, he said no problem. Their performance for our wedding dinner was spectacular! All our guests were very impressed, and it gave our wedding an elegant and unique touch. Kano is so talented; his guitar playing was exceptional. And Paloma Rios, the dancer, was amazing. My husband and I agree that this was the highlight of our wedding, and I can't wait to recommend and/our hire Kano for future events.
Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 13, 2010•From Huntington Beach, CA
I had the opportunity and priviledge to see Kano play before my event, which made the anticipation even greater to have him play at my house as a surprise for my husband on our first wedding anniversary. He is absolutely phenominal and made our night perfect. He plays with unbelievable passion, energy and romance. He lives very far from our house and was able to make it here a half an hour early. He was very professional and accomodating, and I can't wait to hire him for our next party. I can't thank you enough Kano!
