Review by cody w.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on July 25, 2017From Corbett, OR

We booked the Sim Jims for our wedding and absolutely loved what we got. Shane was excellent to work with beforehand, was extremely accommodating and incredibly professional and personal. They were willing to learn a new song for our first dance, play acoustic fiddle during the ceremony and really read the vibe during the reception. They had people wanting to dance from the first song and by the last song everyone was still going. The music selection was excellent, their cowboy suit style on point, and they were excited to be a part of our day. Everyone in the group is very talented and skilled as musicians. I strongly recommend them for any event!

FundraiserReviewed on March 13, 2017From Hillsboro, OR

We highly recommend The SlimJims. In addition to great music and an entertaining performance, the band members were consumate professionals. They were especially accomodating when we changed our event date.

Community EventReviewed on July 21, 2016From Oregon City, OR

The SlimJims were the hit of the festival! We received numerous comments about how the band brought back memories of yester-year. Shane was easy to work with and very accommodating. We would highly recommend The SlimJims at any public function or private party. Can't wait to have them back again!! Thanks guys!
