Tom Kersey - Cellist and Composer

We are a musical family that likes to support the local musicians, and especially original talent. We really enjoyed Tom Kersey’s group, Kelp, and their blend of jazz, ska, and classical. It was really awesome having a live cellist - how many reception bands include one of those?!! Many of our guests enjoyed it too, but some of the older generation couldn’t relate to the change in tempo and the band’s neglect of playing covers (our request of course). Tom Kersey can arrange a variety of groups and will gladly play jazz standards if you give him some notice, we just decided to go with 100% originals.
