Venues played include Margaritaville in Key West, New Orleans and Orlando, Hogs Breath Saloon and Dante's in Key West, the Whitaker Center in Harrisburg, PA, Katmandu in Trenton, NJ and Cabanas in Cape May, NJ.

Picnic•Reviewed on July 15, 2013•From Lancaster, PA
Dennis went above and beyond as a performer for our event! His enthusiasm and interactions with our ODC program participants was so welcoming and he truly became a part of our ODC family! We highly recommend him for any gig, and truly understand why he is so popular in the Tropical music business! A+ in all areas!

Wedding Cocktail Hour•Reviewed on June 17, 2013•From Stockton, NJ
They preformed for us at the Stockton Inn on the garden bar and they were perfect. They look the part and music is great. Excellent Jimmy Buffett cover band.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 12, 2012•From Pocono Pines, PA
Dennis played for my Mom's 51st surprise birthday party. He was WONDERFUL! Everyone raved about him, and several people wanted his contact information for their own parties! He was so much fun, everyone danced all night and no one wanted the music to stop! He sounded exactly like Jimmy Buffet and kept the party lively! I would recommend him again in an instant and will absolutely be calling him again for future events!
