"There is no better event entertainer than Kelley James. I’ve been to a million of these things and I can guarantee you, honestly speaking, that he’s the best. He makes it fun. I actually want to go to events where Kelley James is playing. So do yourself a favor; say ‘yes’ to a Kelley James performance. You’ll be glad you did.”

"Kelley James’s set is truly a sight to behold. The instrumentals, vocals, and vibe of the show amaze me every time.”

RYAN BRAUN 

MLB MVP AND ROOKIE OF THE YEAR

“Kelley James is an incredibly talented musician who blends elements of many different types of music to create a truly unique sound. His stage presence, creativity, style and energy add up to a live show that captivates all audiences. I’ve seen him get the same reaction from a corporate party full of CEOs as he does at a college fraternity house. I’ve seen Kelley perform many times and the audience is always amazed & captivated by his talent and voice. He is always able to connect with the audience and his wide-ranging ability as a musician allows him to relate to any and all demographics. He exudes this laid back California-cool vibe. He is always prepared, reliable, accountable and works as hard as anyone I know.”

JIM HIRSCHMANN

CEO, WESTERN ASSET MANAGEMENT CO.

“I have booked Kelley James for many personal events as well as performances at my firm. Kelley and his band are amazing musicians and extremely professional, but the best part is the way they interact with the audience. Kelley grabs the audience’s attention with his very first song and then totally rocks the entire event. I must have had 50 people ask me for Kelley’s contact information after his last performance.” 

TIM DRAPER

FOUNDER, DFJ

"Kelley James freestyling and inventiveness will rock your world. There are many great musicians out there, but Kelley is an original and a true artist. He captivates and connects with the audience like Prince, sings like Bruno Mars, Raps like Eminem, and freestyles like...well, like Kelley James. Any questions?”

RICKIE FOWLER

ROOKIE OF THE YEAR

“My boy Kelley James is talented to say the least. He is one of the best guys I know and can play any kind of set you want him to...from a rowdy crowd in the Birds Nest at the Phoenix Open to my sister’s wedding! The crowd is fully involved in his freestyles, which are made up on the spot, and this is a great time to pick apart that special person/persons in attendance. It’s a show I don’t miss!”

CARSON PALMER

“Kelley James is an exceptional talent. His performance made my entire event a success and I couldn’t be more blown away or appreciative. Kelley brings his A-game each and every time he performs with the energy to satisfy every audience.”

“At this point I have used Kelley for 3 events including my 40th birthday party, as well as a surprise party for my wife.

My memory of you pulling my daughter up on stage and guiding her through singing the song that she wrote for my birthday is a top 10 in my life!! THANK YOU!!!”

One thing stays the same; his ability to connect with any audience or fan base is something I haven’t seen from many artists, and I’m impressed every time!”

JERRY TARDE

“Kelley James is an outstanding entertainer. Funny, creative, always engaging, he’s got the voice and talent to electrify an audience. He can work a room or a stage, make clients feel like they’re in the act, and he has a real genius for freestyle rapping, which I didn’t know I liked so much until I saw him perform.”
