Feedback

  • Boomerang showed me a lot of class, talent, and professionalism. I will definitely hire them again and recommend them to anyone. Robert G -- Robert G, Raleigh, NC, 2/9/2010
  • Boomerang was the perfect match for our pre-Superbowl party. They arrived on time, set up quickly and played as scheduled, and even performed a couple extra songs for people that couldn't get enough of the band. During the times when the band wasn't playing, they had an iPod with all of our favorite party songs. Their lead singer Neal(?) had strings of beads he handed out during the show to the dancers. They were the highlight of the party and we will definitely have them again. -- Glen A, Durham, NC, 2/6/2010
  • These guys were awesome! Everyone loved their performance! They were very professional and easy to work with. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to have fun! -- Ronda C, Raleigh, NC, 5/7/2009
  • They were awesome! We all really enjoyed their performance and my guests continue to comment on what a great wedding performance it was. They truly helped our wedding turn out as a complete success. -- Amanda C, Beaufort, NC, 4/25/2009
  • Overall the booking experience was great! It was easy to communicate with them coming up to the event. Neil of Boomerang was very responsive, which I appreciated. They were great live as well and had put together quite an enjoyable setlist; the songs flowed well from piece to piece. Additionally, Boomerang had learned "It's Five o'clock Somewhere," at request, in time for our event. I am glad we found Boomerang for it. -- Karen C, Durham, NC, 3/28/2009
  • The guys did a great job; they were nice, polite, and talented. The place we had the event was not great for them because the museum is concrete and glass and the sound bounced off of the walls, floor, and ceiling making it hard for them to provide good sound that wasn't deafening. I would definitely hire them again, in a different location, and perhaps for a different crowd. I think our group was a bit stodgy for a rock band. I thoroughly enjoyed them. Thank you for your help. -- Mary J, Durham, NC, 12/8/2008
  • Boomerang was great. They played a variety of good music and are very talented. -- Dexter H, Chapel Hill, NC, 12/2/2008
  • Boomerang was very willing to correspond prior to our wedding in order to make our wedding day exactly how we wanted it. They are wonderful performers and had many out on the dance floor. We appreciated all Boomerang did for us to make our reception special! -- Catherine W, Raleigh, NC, 6/20/2009
  • Boomerang played our wedding on 10/10/10 in Wake Forest, NC. They were amazing! The band went out of their way to accommodate all our special requests and even downloaded songs of our choosing for dinner music and set breaks. When they started to play live, the boogie bug caught on and everyone had a blast. They were so fun, talented and energetic. We just loved them! We hope to find another reason sometime in the future to have live music at a party so we can hire them again. Thank you Boomerang!! Sincerely, The Clodfelters :) -- Shawn W, Wake Forest, NC, 10/10/2010
  • As a wedding coordinator, I work with lots of DJ's and bands and I was very impressed with their professionalism and accomodating the requests of the guests and the wedding couple. They introduced themselves upon arrival and worked very well with me during the introductions of the wedding party. I would highly recommend them for a wedding or party, and I will hire them again when the time comes. Thanks Boomerang, you're fantastic. Tammie Levron, Weddings By The Beach -- Tammie L, Oriental, NC, 10/9/2010
