CLIENT FEEDBACK:
They were absolutely, totally, undeniably, AWESOME! They are hands down the best band I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. If you are considering hiring the Belltones, just do it, I promise you wont be disappointed. Everyone at our wedding couldnt get enough of them. Thanks again George!

The Belltones were simply wonderful. Although they were hired to play at the wedding, they became a part of the wedding, blending their superb renditions of danceable music with warmth and camraderie with the guests and wedding participants. Their attention to detail prior to the wedding in helping with music selection, their professionalism in conducting themselves at the wedding, and their flexibility in responding to special requests for special songs (made before the wedding) helped to make the day complete. Everyone who attended the wedding had praise for the band, but I think the most telling comment about how good they were comes from a neighbor who was not a guest at the wedding. She said that she heard the music from her house and so enjoyed it that she spent the afternoon dancing inside in her living room to the music of the Belltones.
I heartily recommend The Belltones to anyone who is looking for a band for any event. John Conover
