Married guitar and voice duo that fell in love through performing music! We perform different covers, from classical to jazz to gospel and contemporary music, as well as original music.
Polk Duo is amazing! I have heard them perform/minister live on two occasions and both times it made me want to buy all of their music. Me and my daughter sing Any Day together all of the time. Their most recent song that I've heard was such a positive message that I've been singing it to myself ever since I saw them at Faith Point Fellowship's Midnight Musical 2016! I wish this dynamic duo much success in marriage and in music!
Love, love, love them! They performed at our wedding and truly took it to another level. It's evident that they love what they do, and it shows in the excellence and passion they display.
We have invited Myranda and Kasey several times to our chapel services at GCTS. They are an amazing duo to work with and the anointing is overwhelming! They are professional and true ministers of music. You can really tell that they are diligently dedicated to their craft and to the Lord. I would recommend them for any event. They are two of the most talented musicians and writers that I have ever met in my lifetime!
