Wedding•Reviewed on September 3, 2016•From Geneva, IL
Cary played our ceremony/cocktail hour music for our wedding. He was absolutely fantastic and provided a unique sound that was exactly what we were looking for. From walking down the aisle to "Somewhere over the rainbow" on the ukulele and the awesome cocktail hour tunes, everyone raved about how great he was and was amazed I found him online! Great guy with a great voice, you won't be disappointed booking him!

Cary did a wonderful job for my son's wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. The guests were all impressed with his talent. He covers a wide range of music genres., so there is music everyone can enjoy. Most importantly, he is a really nice person to work with and is extremely professional. I would definitely recommend Cary.

Cary Kanno was a hit!! We felt lucky to have him at our event - Surmanstock. Carry arrived right on time, was pleasant and smiled a lot, accommodated us with a couple of difficult songs he learned at our request. His volume was perfect for or event and he asked if everything was okay during the event, well it was AWESOME!! Cary, we cannot thank you enough, we'll be contacting you for next year's event. Very professional and one of the best voices I've ever heard!! Thanks again!!
Graduation Party•Reviewed on July 16, 2014•From Glenview, IL
This is the second time I requested Cary Kanno for my outdoor party. I literally changed my original party date (even had to buy new invitations because Cary was booked for that date!) in order to be able to have him play for my party. I love his music and his voice and simply wouldn't settle for less. Once again, everyone loved him from young to old. We had a very diverse group of people and he was able to play music that all groups of people enjoyed. He's a very professional entertainer but also a very nice person so it feels like having a family member singing for us. I recommend him highly for all types of events.

Celebration•Reviewed on August 27, 2013•From Chicago, IL
Cary is a true professional and gentleman. He is an incredible talent and everyone at the party raved about him. We had about 50 people on a roof top deck and Cary arrived on time, set up his equipment, and played wonderfully. He played such a wide variety of music that everyone was able to enjoy the evening. He took requests from the crowd and got everyone dancing by the end of the evening. We will definitely hire him again for our next party. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for entertainment of any sort. Thanks Cary!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 18, 2012•From Grayslake, IL
I've been having a hard time coming up with words to explain how perfect Cary helped make our wedding. We hired him to play indoors for our reception but he ended up popping outside and playing our cocktail hour too! He learned a few new songs for the reception and they were incredible. We were so touched by the obvious effort he put into learning them, and learning them well. Between his laid back personality and great play list, we could not have asked for a better performance. He was the highlight of our wedding. Well, after the whole getting married part. Thank you!!!
Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 7, 2012•From Cary, IL
Cary was fabulous! He was prompt, courteous, professional and exquisite in his performance. Guests from 18 – 70 enjoyed the music and asked me “Where/How did you find him?!” Everyone was thoroughly impressed. As several of our guests had been members of the high school musical groups, Cary was enthusiastic & welcoming when a few of our party-goers wanted to sing with him. He performed a wonderful variety of music – engaging everyone’s taste in music. I wished he could have played for many more hours…..He was great! Cary was an absolute hit at our party. I would recommend him highly and I certainly would hire him again for another event.
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 3, 2011•From Madison, WI
Cary was a HUGE hit at our wedding. We couldn't have been more pleased. His voice and guitar playing abilites are amazing. He was professional, courteous, flexible, accomodating, and knew how to read the audience. We had kids and adults of all ages dancing throughout. Never an empty dance floor. Wish we could have another party soon so Cary can come back! Thanks so much for making our event so memorable. (Highly recommend "Angel Dream" and "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" both acoustic covers - his renditions were better than the originals!) -- Brian and Marilen, Madison, Wisconsin

He was wonderful. Knew exactly what he was doing with little to no direction from us. Experienced, friendly, wonderful. Everyone told us how much they loved him. A great choice!
