Testimonials

CK Band did a great job of keeping everyone of the dance floor for much longer than usual for our group. 🙂 They are a group of gifted musicians for sure and Yendi and the other singer (sorry didn't catch his name) were incredible. Thanks and hope to see you again sometime. Allyson Rock - Rexair

We had the CK Band for our Purdue for Life Meeting. Great Band and we are having the CK Band back in 2023

We had an amazing time on our wedding day. From the first moment we reached out to Carey, the band leader for the band. He was so on top of things. Very thorough in the services that CK Entertainment would provide during our special day and interpreted what that would look like for us all the way from the planning to the execution. We had so many compliments from our guests, saying that they had never been to an event so classy before, and the live band is what made it so elegant. We were so pleased with how everything turned out, even with COVID, we were still able to have a talented band that certainly delivered an upscale event. Thanks CK Entertainment for making our wedding day elegant, festive and beautiful!

Sincerely,

Candace & Carnell
The new bride & groom

We had the 7 Piece CK Band for our corporate meeting at the Doral. WOW what a band.
Great Vocals and Horns. 7 pieces sounded like the 10
We could not get more if we asked. Highly recommend CK

Carey and the CK Band lived up to every hope I had! They were easy to work with, timely, professional and above all were a fantastic band! The female lead singer has a superb voice and the instrumentals are on point! Our group literally danced the entire evening, including the last dance! I received nothing but glowing comments about the band from everyone who attend our event. I would recommend the CK Band to everyone, and am hoping I have another event in South Florida so I can hear them again! Do yourself a favor and stop looking at other bands -it doesn't get better than the CK Band!

Thank You CK Band

We just had the CK Band for our corporate meeting at the Ritz
in Naples. They were great and their female vocalist has an incredible voice. They kept everyone dancing all night long.
Very Happy.

I just wanted to say thank you so much to your team for a fabulous wedding. You helped facilitated our dream come true wedding. They were all very professional,creative, and attentive to detail throughout the night. The dinner music was a HUGE hit. The ladies voice was amazing, and we heard so many complements about it. Hopefully they got our card from the planner with a small token of our appreciation.

Thank you ,

Hello CK Band,

Amanda R has submitted the following review for Gig ID #3189194:

Client Review
Excellent. Good communication. Professional. Flexible. They are even better in person than on demo. Vocalist is talented, gorgeous, and knows how to work the room and engage audience. Brass was outstanding. Our pickiest listeners were impressed with jazz Sax and Clarinetist, Carey. They were all around great. Did not want it to end. The audience loved them. They rolled with it so well - I even saw an elderly woman in the audience hold the drummers hand WHILE he was trying to play lol. They were so gracious, talented and flexible. If you can hire them - I would before it’s too late!

We had the CK Big Band they were great.
Great horns and Vocals

We just had the CK Latin Band for our meeting in South Florida.
Our guests loved the band and they played great Latin Music as
well as American Music. I highly recommend the CK Latin Band.

Thanks CK Latin Band

CK Entertainment is a class act. They had everything set up before hand and wore professional attire. We hired CK Entertainment to perform for our wedding on March 12, 2016. They were everything we hoped for and more. Our favorite thing about CK Entertainment is that they feel out your guests and play music that they know your guests will enjoy. Our guests were dancing all night and having a great time. It has been over two weeks since our wedding, my husband and I are still getting phone calls about how awesome our wedding was. This was all because of CK Entertainment. CK Entertainment is reasonable as well. They are not over priced like most bands. If you want your wedding to be a success, I would hire CK Entertainment in a heartbeat. Carey was wonderful to work with and was very prompt with emails. Thanks again CK Entertainment for making our wedding day so enjoyab

Thank you!

Our residents LOVED your band! Thank you for being a part of our celebration on New Years Eve!

Hi Carey,

This note is long overdue...but we're just getting back into our normal lives following our honeymoon
John and I wanted to express our appreciation for the unbelievable job that your band did at our wedding. On your behalf, we received so many compliments about you and your talented band members.
While I can not sufficiently express our gratitude, I can offer you the opportunity to use us as a future reference .

I was so pleased to have had CK Band play at my wedding. We received an overwhelming amount of compliments about the band. Even the assigned city policeman (required for our venue) commented that this was the "best" band that had ever played at The Stranahan House.
Carey was a true professional from beginning to end! The band leader for the evening, Beth, was wonderful too. She was an amazing hostess and extremely accommodating to the many people that delivered speeches throughout the evening.
The quality of music was more than we could have ever expected. From our first dance, Crazy Love (Van Morrison) to When the Saints go Marching In - every song was delivered as authentically as possible.
The musicians played perfectly, and the singers were just wonderful!
They were a critical element to the good time that our guests had.
Their cost was a bargain. (Compared to other area bands)
Thank you very much! John and I couldn't have been luckier to have found such a good band!

With kindest regards,
Jennifer Simon

Additional Comments:

The CK Band did an outstanding job for our reception. They arrived on time and played as scheduled. The attendees enjoyed the variety of music the band was able to cover. I wanted to commend the band - our event was held at a facility where we did not know what the parking fees would be. We made arrangements to pay the fees in cash ahead of time. When the band arrived - they alerted us that they were able to park in a free area and did not need to accept the cash. Not many bands would have done this and I commend CK and the band on their integrity. Book them - they are as good as they are honest!

Rarely are my expectations exceeded, but last night I was blown away by the professionalism, the talent and the graciousness of every single member of the band. We all left feeling like we had made friends instead of hiring a great band when in fact we did both. I will hire them again and again. I had dozens of requests for how to get in touch with them as everyone was so impressed. We had guests stay until the very last song just to hear them play and keep dancing. What a glorious night made even more special by the CK Band. Thanks, Laura Coley

We were very happy with the CK Band/ Great Music, played all our request's and kept my whole Party dancing the night away.

Very Professional Musicians!

They provided our wedding with great entertainment from start to finish! Carey was very accommodating and professional and put together a great group of musicians. Everyone danced and danced at our wedding and commented continually about the band! They were tremendous! I would recommend them to anyone looking to hire a wedding band. They came dressed appropriately, and on time and were all set and ready to go by the time everyone entered the ballroom. They were great!
