Kim Waters did a fantastic job and put on a great show. His interaction with the audience was smooth and real. What I personally like about the show he did freelance his original music a whole lot. He gave you what you hear on his albums which is nice.

Three words...FAB-U-LOUS!!! Sax player with Karukas was all that (a high school music teacher, no less. God bless him!) Kim and Maysa put on a great set. Kim did his thing for his birthday, his brother on bass layed down an awesome solo! Ran into Kim later on having a quiet moment with friends at "Hooters". lol

Opening act - more like opening concert... Gregg Karukas performed a great show on keyboards. His band was really great and really played well for the crowd. We enjoyed hearing about his musical career and great songs on the piano. Then after the intermission it was Kim Waters. Always does a great show. His special guest Maysa had a great voice and was very entertaining. It was Kim's birthday on Saturday, so the special treat after the concert was when Chuck Loeb came on stage with Maysa and they did their own rendition of Happy Birthday. Was a very enjoyable afternoon concert!

I absolutely loved this concerts. It was two concerts for the price of one. I had seen Gregg Karukas with other bands, but he was phenomal by himself. I was jamming the whole time. Also, I had seen Kim Waters with The Sax Pack and thought he was great, but just fell in love with him all over again after seeing him and Maysa! I was really a special event.

This concert without a doubt featured Baltimore's Best Jazz artists. I was totally blown away by Gregg Karukas and his band especially his Brad his saxman, who is a real player. Of course, Kim Waters and Maysa have become the elite jazz artist; playing and singing one great song after another. I was highly recommend that you bring this back again. We'll definitely attend.

Gregg Karukas and his group were first and tore the house down. His sax player, a Baltimore music teacher full time, was unbelievable in his virtuosity of the sax. The crowd started swaying from the first number through the last set. The group plays together regularly and enjoys doing so, that fact was obvious immediately. When they finished you wondered how could Kim Waters follow this performance. Kim did follow and we were not disappointed. He immediately captured the crowd as we rocked and swayed to his melodic sax alternating romantic slow jams and up tempo tunes. Maysa just blew us away with tunes from her brand new album as well as one or two numbers from her days with Incognito. Her voice is so strong and the use of scat singing thrilled the crowd. Berks Jazz Festival is a must see event.

Maybe it was just me but it appeared that portions of Greg Karukas performance was not live but "memorex". There was a couple songs especially when playing the guitar type keyboard when re he went to his laptop and musci was pre-tape. Again maybe just me but he did by mistake start music too soon and have to rewind tape. I was very disappointed if this is the case as i payed for a total live performance & experience. Reminded my of all the lip scyncing (sp?) revelations some years back in pop music. Would never have expected this to happen in live Jazz.

Kim Waters and Maysa were as advertised, Gregg Karukas and the band, especially his Saxophone player stole the show. It was worth the price of admission just to here Gregg. I am now a sworn Karukas Fan.

Kim Waters proves why he should be listed in the top 5 of jazz saxophonists on tour! I have never seen him live, and was pleased to have been there this past Saturday night! Though I miss Grover Washington, Jr., had the option to see Najee, and missed out on Boney James tickets, I have to say, Kim Waters gave us our money's worth and then some. Not to mention, his new CD must be "butt naked" by the tuns he dropped at The Birchmere! The concert was so tight it squeaked!!!

This was our first time at the Birchmere, but not the first time we've seen Kim Waters. This show was a culmination of a week spent celebrating our 32nd wedding anniversary. What a dynamo finale! The acoustics in the Birchmere are amazling and I just don't think there are too many bad seats at this venue (with the exception of a two seater table behind the band that my husband had first selected -- needless to say, we changed immediately to terrific seats). Kim Waters was fantastic and, his ability to transfuse humor throughout the performance was just another example of Kim Water's superb showmanship abilities. We ordered tickets online and we picked them up at the Birchmere's Will Call window in such an effortless transaction, as opposed to a few other venues where have found it to sometimes be a bit more tedious. We enjoyed the show, the venue and the ticket transactions. Birchmere, will be back and we'll be purchasing more tickets onlin. '

It was an amazing show. We saw him the last time he was at the Birchmere, but it is always a different experience. Package the cool laid back personality of Kim with the band and it's a blast. The crowd interaction would steal the show if the music wasn't so great. Get ready to be entertained by Kim's fast thinking wit and the emotion he brings to the music. The band is always tight and is obviously having fun. If he's in town... GO!!

Just went to Brichmere for Kim Waters. This was my first time going to Birchmere. While this is not the best part of Arlington Birchmere was a nice venue. To get best seating spot you will need to come early as around 530pm. I have ordered couple of things from the menu and prices were overpriced, but the food was decent. If you come for music only then eat before as price and selection at Birchmere was not impressive. Kim Waters did great job and entertained us for 2 hours. I like his style of smooth jazz and he was great! Onsite parking was good and is a part of your ticket. Overall, great way to spend Saturday night.

The show was delightful. It was date night for my husband and I Kim's story on the Uber driver from Hell was funny and how he incorporated that into his music. He played for an hour and 20 minutes and we enjoyed every second. The food (catfish) was awesome as well.

Kim Waters and his band put on a superb performance. He was full of energy, funny, interactive with the audience and most important a smooth/skillful sax player. His drummer's solo was off the hook. Kim's daughter came up & performed a keyboard solo & then played a piece with the band. That young lady has great talent, it was a pleasure to see the energy that came out of such a petite young lady. You all must see this show.

Kim brought a magnificent gift of Music which exudes to the masses by Kim Waters is so "Amazing". The enjoyment that I experience was perfectly soulful, graceful, and entertaining. I've been following Kim's music career since He began in the early 90's. He is a" Hall of Famer"of the Saxophone. His music is Blissful, Happy, an Elegant Extravaganza, Spirit-filled, Anointed, Perfected, Sensual, Awe Inspiring, and Special!

The music was good, for how long, it lasted, but it was much too short. The concert was supposed to start at 8 and started a little after that. He played a little while and then talked to the audience. This would have been alright had the concert lasted longer than 1 hour and 15 minutes. Is this a new thing, that concerts don't last 2 hours? The interaction with the audience would have been fine, had the concert lasted longer.

The Kim Waters concert at Birchmere was the best jazz concert I have ever attended. Kim Waters not only played lights out contemporary jazz music ,but he was communicating with the audience and the concert was so inter-active.The highlight for me was the tribute to the late great George Duke , his daughter playing the piano that led into a Jil Scott song and his playing of a Charlie Wilson song.Kim Waters is a class act .Looking forward to the next concert.

If you have never seen Kim Water perform live; you are missing a smooth jazz treasure. The man has range you wouldn't believe. His unbelievable passion is something you will never forget. Trust me; if you see him perform once, you will not need to read a review to see him again. The $35 I paid for the ticket was an absolute STEAL!

Kim Waters put on a great show and he has extraordinary range and showmanship. I think people who enjoy jazz don't appreciate how familiar they are with his work. In any event, I was fortunate enough to take someone special on a first date to see Kim Waters and he definitely set the right tone. Kim and the band created the perfect atmosphere for ugly face good music, light romance, and good conversation.

Kim is such an awesome performer. He worked the audience and established a great rapport. I was not expecting Daniel "D." His talent is unbelievable. At such a young age, he had stage presence and genuinely seemed to enjoy himself. Maysa...what can I say? Her talent is so great. I can not wait until she is the headliner of her own show.

Four star review of a great Smooth Jazz line up. Kim Waters was silky sweet on his solo's and his band was on point. Maysa was off the chain. Her distinctive tone and melodic voice comforted the theatre like a warm, friendly blanket. She was outstanding. Only reason for not receiving 5 stars was that there appeared to be some technical difficulty with getting her mic set up to carry her voice over the volume of the band. She repeatedly requested an adjustment be made to the sound people off stage to her left but did not seem to achieve what she wanted. It was noticeable initially but appeared to get corrected in the middle of the second song she performed. Overall the event was outstanding and we enjoyed the chemistry of the two artists when they were on stage together.

Kim Waters was at his usual best and Maysa did not disappoint with her cool, mello voice. However, the person that stole the show was young and talented Daniel "D" (Davis) who displayed such talent playing a blend of smooth jazz, classical and hip hop on the violin. The audience raved and gave him continous standing ovations. Daniel D is one to look out for. At 21 years of age he displays a mature talent that one would expect from a seasoned musician.

Great show by Kim Waters and Maysa was outstanding. Great energy. Both very creative. Maysa took the show to the next level. Surprise opening act Daniel D was outstanding. Sound and emcees left something more to be desired and stops this from being a five star show.

Maysa was fabulous - very beautiful and her sound is authentic. Very enchanting. Kim is very breezy - just cool.

The show was wonderful! I believe that the artists showcased were enjoying themselves and the audience's response. Would love to see both of them again anytime!

The show was excellent. That was my first time seeing Kim in concert and he was excellent. Smooth Jazz at its best. As always Maysa did her thing, with her rich voice that penetrates the soul. Lastly, Daniel the young violinist was awesome.
