Feedback

  • The Bourbon Street Band was most definitely the hit of the wedding reception. Countless guests asked where we found such a great band. I am more than ecstatic over the job they did. -- Kristen G, Houston, TX, 7/5/2008
  • HIRE THIS BAND! What a pleasure to have this band at our party. Their manager is professional, easy to work with and communicated perfectly with us. The music is a fun combination and they take requests! You are not just hiring a band here, they truly are entertainers and I would hire them again tomorrow! 200 people in attendance, age range was 22 - 70 at our party and everyone left with a smile on their face when talking about the band. I can not say thank you enough for what they gave to all of our guests!!! -- Joy J, Houston, TX, 4/5/2008
