Incredible! Amazing! Phenomenal! There's only one Kenny G... Every beat, every tone and every note is genuine, and authentic real music from a First Class Artist... I once told Kenny I'm never bored of his music I hear something different each show... I just can't get enough of his Sax 🎷... I love these guys ❤️. Brenda 🦋

Out of all the shows I've attended, and it's to many to count my hometown Orlando was the best crowd we adored Kenny and the guys... Orlando gave Kenny a standing ovation after he completed his opening solo holding the long note... No other venue has ever done that he's simply amazing... I feel very blessed to be witnessing these Pivotal moments with Kenny G and his band thank you, and the guys so much for always being generous and Kind with me Kenny. I love y'all your music means so much to me... My bags are packed ready for the next adventure GPS surprise me 🥰... Brenda 🦋

Kenny surprised me with new content and I wasn't disappointed... Never Bored I would travel the Universe with these guys because I never want that Sax to stop playing... Truly my honor to be Kenny's fan... Brenda 🦋

Overall a great show! KENNY was witty and played beautifully!
For the opening piece the sound was off; got better by the second piece. Sitting in section G was a bum; could only glimpse three people on stage and a terrible glare from the lights bouncing off the stage floor!
Whatever happened to the revolving stage?

Kenny G was EVERYTHING I HAD IMAGINED and so much more !!!!! This was a Bucket List experience for me celebrating my birthday and I couldn't have imagined how wonderful it would be. Add the additional surprise of a meet and greet after the show with him and I was over the moon !!! A phenomenal night of incredible music that absolutely everyone should experience in their lifetime.

Another Phenomenal show by Kenny G and his amazing band. The crowd was lively and I can tell they really appreciated Kenny and the band they applauded and screamed as our guy held those notes like no one else can. When it comes to Kenny and his shows you will feel the full effect of that Sax he's been playing since highschool. The Wilson Center at CFCC was incredible the sound was good the staff was friendly the overall night unforgettable the performance 5⭐'s. I love these guys and I will always support Kenny G, Robert, John, Daniel, Vail and Ron wishing them all the very best on this journey of Saxing our hearts one note at a time. Brenda 🦋

This was probably my 4th or 5th time I have been to a Kenny G concert.
The performance he gave at the Ocean City Music Pier on July 10th shows why he is such an enormously talented musician and showman.
He effortlessly engages his audience with his warm personality and wonderful sense of humor. I mean, the guy is really funny!
Kenny's warmth is infectious and his music is so uplifting. He and his entire band are multi-talented, and you sense that they really LIKE each other, and are having as good a time as the audience.
With the concert being held at the Ocean City Music Pier, right on the boardwalk, what a perfect setting for a magnificent show.
My only request is that he might include a few more Brazilian tunes, and even some of his "Christmas" songs into the mix (for those of us who like to celebrate "Christmas in July")!

Great show! Full of energy and excellent music. Kenny G is a fantastic musician and entertainer. Love the way he showcases his band! He is a classic and even better live! The show was full of surprises. Kenny G does have a great sense of humor too. He autographed cd's and posed for pics w.fans. He seems to really appreciate his fans. The show was 2hrs long. Crowd was great too!

The Hampton Jazz Festival was my 1st, and I had a blast of a time. I missed the first act Peter White, but I saw my favorite guy Kenny G and his amazing band. I also enjoyed seeing Babyface, and Fantasia the crowd was lively and I got up and joined a line dance in between sets. Overall I give this trip 5 ⭐'s hands down I will go again. Now I'm getting ready for my next adventure see when you're single you can go wherever you want when you want. North Carolina let's go! I enjoy listening to Kenny and the band it gives my heart great pleasure. The Hampton Coliseum was convenient my hotel was right across. Thank you Kenny, Robert, Ron, Daniel, Vail and John for an unforgettable trip. Brenda 🦋

I’ve seen Kenny G several times. He is great with the audience and comes out into the crowd. However, I feel the circular breathing shtick is played out. We’ve all experienced it and witnessed it.
Also, the long-running tweedle dee dee solos are too frequent and there are too many of them. The rest of his ensemble just stands there, resting their arms on their instruments and takes a break. I’d rather hear more of his songs than what seem like endless solos through the show.

Amazing!!! It was a spectacular show!!! Kenny G and his entire band are so talented!! They gave a beautiful concert and it is one of the best things you can treat someone and yourself to for the holidays!! My daughter plays clarinet and saxophone and has been a longtime fan, it was a dream come true to hear him live and meet him!! Kenny G is so nice and really connects with the audience, we will go again for sure!! Loved the intimate setting too!!

Unfortunately I didn't attend this amazing show. I'm sure I can speak for everyone in attendance that was one incredible evening with Mr. Saxy the great Kenny G. I look forward to being there soon in person up close ready to be Saxed. I'm excited to see and hear KG with his amazing band. Butterfly 🦋 #NewStandards

This was another incredible Saxy night with @kennyg and his amazing band. This guy looks so good to be 66 years old today, yes KG keep the Pantene going so those beautiful curls keep bouncing. Even if they turn gray it's okay, your career won't go down the drain like Michael Bolton "as you say" 😉. I'm always feeling so blessed when I leave your show because you always give us your best not only that you play your 🎷 as if you're playing for each of us individually. That makes for a Phenomenal artist. Thank you for touching me without using your hands. I pray for continued health for you so you can Sax our hearts more. Truly it's an honor to be a loyal fan of Team G. Butterfly 🦋

“The house was full come Saturday night in Augusta GA with the most diverse audience I can remember seeing at a show. Jazz Education 101 was in session, Professor G in charge. I admittedly came with low anticipation expecting a mediocre event i.e. a 2 hour ‘Songbird’, but soon came to realize that, ‘Augusta this isn’t your Grandma’s Kenny G! We were last row center orchestra on the isle and I heard what appeared to be a youth practicing his horn, I quickly turned around and it was Kenny a few feet away warming up prior to making a rather unusual grand entrance from back to front. He had with him his same saxophone from high school, Kenny commenting how it was his longest relationship ever. I repented then and there! When I noticed the merch table selling solo artist CD’s from the band members, it should have been a clear indication that they are not your ordinary hired hands. Between hits, each one of the 5 member band were featured. The latin percussion heavy and complex, at one point closing my eyes I swore I was smack in the middle of a 1970’s Santana concert, then Kenny turned his soprano sax into the sounds of an electric guitar and I could hear Eddie Van Halen’s ‘Eruption’! Next percussionist Ron Powell did the unthinkable, a tambourine solo. Standing front and center he did things I never knew were possible on the instrument from kicking it up off the floor into the air and rolling it over his shoulders from one hand to the other and back again leading the audience in a clap along. There was a slap bass solo from Daniel Johnson bringing everyone out of their seats, Kenny introducing him as ‘The funkiest white bass player in America’. Kenny has endured some criticism from some of the traditional jazzists, but he gave all credit to the greats to whom it was due. The theater was transformed into a Jazz Club and we moved song to song from the 50’s into the 70’s improving Stan Getz ‘Desafindo’, to John Coltrane’s ’Naima’, to Average White Band’s ‘Pick Up The Pieces’. Kenny was both humorous and personable and announced that he would appear in the lobby to sign LP’s and CD’s. My highlight, ‘Kenny this was my 653rd concert and first time seeing a Kenny G show, thank you for making it such a great experience!’ Wow, you DO go to a lot of concerts!”, then he shot me the ‘peace sign’ signing my CD, capital ‘DA’ small ‘ve’ without me coaching him on it. How’d he know? If you get the chance to see Kenny LIVE, I assure you, you won’t be disappointed.” by DAve (Concert #653)

What can I say, but Kenny G is one Saxy Alley Cat. The band is Phenomenal the sound was amazing. Kenny G has the it factor in all areas as a Jazz musician. Jazz Alley is a beautiful place the staff is friendly, and the food is great. Most definitely recommend going to Jazz Alley to support and keep live music going. Butterfly 🦋

Kenny G is one Saxy Alley Cat! Loved his performance I could never get tired of hearing his beautiful music. Thank you Jazz Alley for having us, and for allowing live music. Your establishment is beautiful, and your staff is warm and friendly. Great food I really enjoyed the Prawns and creamy grits. Thank you Kenny for always giving us your best.

This was an amazing show as always. Kenny G and his incredible band knows how to put life back into your soul. I'm very grateful for Kenny's music it's obvious he cares about his fans from the quality he puts into every show. Thanks Kenny for being you that same Saxy guy who's been blowing the same Sax for over 40 years for our enjoyment. Butterfly 🦋

He put on a great show! Very entertaining and engaged with the audience. Every member of his band is an incredible, stand alone, musician. Enjoyed the opportunity meet him after the show. He’s one of the few musicians that I could tell you exactly where I was when I heard him for the first time. I became a fan immediately. I’d definitely go see him again!
Huntsville, AL@Von Braun Center Arena
I always catch his shows whenever he’s in the Bay Area or Las Vegas. My first time going to Yoshi’s last night. Had dinner first and then they gave me reserved seating in front! Kenny G was awesome as usual. He loves the intimate setting and mingling with his fans. His band members are incredible. Must’ve seen him over a dozen times in the last 2 years. Can’t wait for the next one!

Kenny, you are awesome. My wife Jennifer and I saw you in Chicago many years ago at the Vic. What I love about you is how you interact with your fans. I’ve been a fan since your Jeff Lorber days. As a fellow musician, I really respect not only your command of music, but your stage presence. I hope we have a chance to meet and collaborate sometime!
