Feedback

  • The Beamers are great!! I had compliments from all of our guests. The music was superb and the band was so friendly and fun. They were on time and were instrumental in pulling off a big surprise for my awesome wife. I would definitely recommend the Beamers for a party band. I hope to have them at more parties in the future. Clark Wilson -- Clark W, Austin, TX, 11/14/2009
  • The Beamers are a wonderful & Talented Band. Working with Rick was fantastic. He recommended songs & was very accommodating of the mixture of music we wanted played at our wedding reception. It is so difficult to find a band that plays a mixture of country, latin, today's favorite’s and classic oldies. The Beamers are a band that plays it all. The dance floor was filled with family and friends of all ages. The Beamers knew what to play to keep that dance floor full! After the wedding, we still hear how great the band at the reception was. We recommend The Beamers to anyone looking for that perfect band. -- Lisa S, Buda, TX, 10/31/2009
  • Great band and fun band -- Greg D, Austin, TX, 3/12/2011
