We've performed: daily at the Florida State Fair (Tampa) 5 of the past 8 years; daily at the Iron Horse Saloon in Ormond Beach, FL during Bike Week and Biketoberfest for over 12 years; plus repeat performances or long-term engagements at Walt Disney World, Universal Studios Orlando, Cypress Gardens and Silver Springs, and at many nightclubs, fairs, festivals, community events, and private parties.

Feedback
- Our event was large. We had an attendance of over 500 people. I would highly recommend that anyone who desires to draw this sort of an attendance use Andy and his group. We were thrilled by their performance. This was the second time that we have used them and could not be more pleased by the outcome. Thank you, Andy. -- Sara N, Clermont, FL, 2/12/2011
- They were GREAT interacting with the group and had talent on all type of music. We will ask the back in months to come............... -- Loren M, Kissimmee, FL, 3/12/2011
- These guys are awesome! We had great communication before the event, they squeezed us in between two other engagements, and they kick butt performing as well! Our crowd had a great time and we really loved having them. Hopefully we have another Mardi Gras event soon and can invite them back! -- Stephanie M, Orlando, FL, 2/23/2011
- Andy and Sarah are wonderful performers and great people. Our Community enjoyed both their company and their talent. Their style is relaxed and friendly. They interacted with our members in a relaxed manner in total conformity with the "Country Friendly" nature of the event.

- Andy Burr and friends made our party an overwhelming success. They were great. -- Beverly N, Brooksville, FL, 2/10/2012
- Andy Burr and Friends were simply fantastic. Right on time, organized, and great Zydeco and Cajun music. We look forward to having them back again. -- Sam F, Key Largo, FL, 2/29/2012
- The Porch Dogs were fantastic! They set the mood for our event and kept our guests entertained throughout the night without being a distraction (it was a judicial reception with lots of socializing, so the band was not the focus of the event - the judges were). Our guests raved about them. They even kept playing past the agreed-upon end of the event and were very laid-back about it. We can't say enough good things about them! -- Suzanne M, Orlando, FL, 3/15/2012
