CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Scott, the person who I was in contact with was just great. While we were in the crazy mode of handling everything for our wedding, I approched Scott while they were setting up. He could tell that everything us a buzz and assured me that they had it under control - he was right. From the accustic music at the ceremony (up in the vineyard) to the reception at the winery, they were just great. They even learned and played 'our song' and our 'first dance' song which was an easy rumba - they did both wonderfully. Being in the wine country where someone is always looking for a professional band, Holding Out will be our recommendation! Great job!!
