"Kenny Kirby [2021] - Playin' The Cracks (Selected Tracks) [Philly Fillet Records] I came across this artist via DJ Melismo's (aka Mats Olofsson) latest podcast in which he played "Someday We'll All Be Free" (and what a version!), so decided to check out the rest of the album Kenny Kirby's name may not be well known but he has been performing for over forty years with top acts such as Van Morrison, Charlie Grace, Sly & The Family Stone, Delfonics, Three Degrees, Major Harris, Billy Paul, Intruders, Blue Notes, Soul Survivors and was conductor for The Tymes. He is a piano player from Birmingham, AL, and released, what looks like, his debut album "Playin' The Cracks" in April. It is mainly covers, smooth jazz, some instrumentals and some quite MOR tunes, but three tracks did get my attention. I'm fairly sure it's not Kenny singing as some of the vocals are female. No one else is credited on the album, so I'm guessing they are unnamed guest vocalists on the vocal tracks. The three tracks are a cover of Donny Hathaway's "Someday We'll All Be Free", "Some Things Never Change" and "Ultimate Lover" a song written by Linda Creed and Dennis Matkosky."

Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing the music was, and the dance floor was packed all night!

"An excellent surprise 😍 We found Rock2night by chance during a Google search. We didn’t know them, and our choice was based on the videos we heard on YouTube, and we loved it! We chose the songs for our ceremony, shared them with Laura, and trusted her talent blindly. The first time we heard the songs sung in her version was on our wedding day, and what an excellent surprise!! 😍 Without a doubt, they made our ceremony even more beautiful and special, and without them, it wouldn’t have had the same magic and charm. For all their friendliness, professionalism, and talent, I highly recommend Rock2night. Thank you so much for being a part of our day ❤️ "

"We hired West Coast to play at our wedding in June - they are absolutely sensational. Our wedding guests that hadn't heard West Coast play before were blown away and still talking about how amazing they were. We have experienced West Coast several times before, at my brother's wedding and at other venues on Lefkada, and for us it was a no-brainer, we had to have them at our wedding as they are so talented, so fun and we knew they'd be the perfect fit. I booked the band through the lovely Danae, she was super easy to talk to you and make all the arrangements, and then she dealt directly with the taverna regarding setting up to take the stress away from me! Everyone loved the band so much that they continued to play well past their allotted time, for which we are so grateful! I sent Danae a few suggestions of the kind of songs we like, and she took it and ran with it and song after song was just perfect, we danced all night long, as did pretty much all of our guests too - it's all that we wanted and more... Already thinking about what our next event can be so I can book West Coast again! Thank you West Coast!"
