Cya Inhale

I had a fabulous idea to have a Dragulous themed 40th birthday celebration. I didn’t know where to start to make my dream birthday into a reality. I started looking online. While looking for the perfect host, someone recommended Cya Inhale. I reached out to her and she confirmed she was available for my birthday celebration. We discussed her booking rate and I booked her. Super easy! I also wanted other drag queens to perform at my parties as well. She recommended 2 other queens she has worked with in the past. I reached out and booked both of them. Prior to the event we discussed my expectations and she made sure she delivered on all my requests. She put on 3 amazing performances as well as the two other queens. Their outfits were on point! Great Interaction with the guests. She was willing to take pictures with all the guests. I heard I had the party of the year thanks to Cya and her queens! You made my 40th birthday amazing and unforgettable!!!

“Believer. Dreamer. Singer.”
 A natural born performer, Kaylin's vocals and energetic stage presence captivate audiences even before her vibrant personality and curly hair. Spending the first 18 years of her life in Portage, Wisconsin, Kaylin's beginnings in music were humble. She started singing in karaoke competitions, which led to full band opportunities. Her vocal ability and stage presence caught the attention of regional bands “Shotgun Jane” and “Spitfire Rodeo”. Traveling to different cities every weekend, Kaylin was able to meet new faces and get to know her audience well. By the age of 16, she was touring across the country with original music. She has featured on radio stations such as the JT and Johnny Show as well as Nashville’s Radio Sobro station. Her music can also be heard live, as she frequents various Nashville stages. Kaylin has returned to the studio to create more music and has had the opportunity to work alongside both Lauren Daigle and Matthew West & Ben Fuller.

Nashville based singer-songwriter Kaylin Kole is a spunky pop artist with bold tones and style.

Kaylin Kole

"Kaylin is an exciting young artist way beyond her years would suggest. She is able to perform any genre she chooses, and she does so with her own unique style. She is a force to be reckoned with, and an up-and-comer to be watched as her star rises."

-Bobby Boyd

"Kaylin Kole's pop sensibilities and keyboard bops are a perfect representation of her quirky, fun, and exciting personality - all of which contribute to a memorable performance both on and off stage."

-Aaron Schilb

Kaylin was great! The clients LOVED her. We did end up cutting her performance short but NOT because she wasn't good instead simply because the group wanted a more "DJ" house vibe. Would 100% book Kaylin again!

The Atlanta Brass Cats Trio was terrific. The music was sensational, and sounded so much like the original artists. The musicians and singer are very talented and everyone loved them. I wanted people to be motivated to dance, but also be able to enjoy conversations with friends and the Atlanta Brass Cats Trio fit the bill.  The choice of songs was appropriate. The lead singer and musical accompaniment were truly entertaining and everyone commented "they are so good!" They were accommodating to my requests, and the band as a whole put everything into making our party the great success that it was. We can't thank them enough for their beautiful music.
