Cynthia and Bob are the cats meow!
They bent over backwards to work with our cast and dancers at a Roaring 20's party/fund raiser.
If you want talented musicians that will work different types of themed events then I would highly recommend Cynthia and Bob!
They were on time and were set up and ready to play in a flash!
They are very nice, polite individuals, I felt like I had known them for years!
We will for sure be using Cynthia and Bob for upcoming events.

Cynthia and Bob were part of a Black Tie Art Auction benefitting a local charity, on who's committee I am pleased to be a part. Their performance during our silent auction/mingle hour was the icing on the cake for the event. Literally everyone commented on how wonderful they were. Cynthia looked lovely in her red evening gown and the music really set the tone for the rest of the evening. We couldn't have had a better experience. They made the event.

This was a fund raiser for our local hospital. Cynthia and Bob were very professional and the music couldn't have been better or fit the theme of the evening any closer. They did everything we asked, and everyone commented on the "great music". We recieved calls the next day thanking us for having them. I would reccomend Cynthia and Bob to anyone needing a great sound performed by very talented people. They made me look good.

Cynthia McDonald and Bob Green her musical partner performed at my parents' 50th wedding anniversary. Cynthia's smooth vocals and Bob's expertise on the keyboard, saxaphone, and other instruments added the perfect touch to the celebration. They were both very professional, gracious, and very responsive to our requests. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again in the future. I received numerous compliments concerning their performance and my parents thought they were wonderful.

This was a very positive experience. They set up right on time in a rather unusual location. This was a retirement party for our World Champion Saddlebred horse, CH Sammyshine. The party was outdoors in a show barn at the Kentucky State Fair. They provided great music for 200++ people and helped create a fantastic relaxed yet festive atmosphere for our party. They had top quality equipment and were able to adjust easily to the unusual location.
On top of that they were nice people. I feel like we have made new friends. I highly recommend Cynthia for your next event.

Cynthia McDonald and her partner Bob Green are very talented and provided a wonderful performance for my parent's 50th wedding anniversary party. Many of the guests were very impressed with how well Cynthia sings and Bob's exceptional versataity with different instruments. Everything Cynthia did, from providing a contract promptly, responding to email inquiries, and singing her heart out, was greatly appreciated and done with professionalism. I would not hesitate for an instant to recommend her for anyone wanting the beatiful music of the Golden Era of Jazz and Big Bands. Cynthia provided exactly what she said she would and looked great doing it. She's very pretty and can sing wonderfully. Both she and Bob are a perfect combination for any special event.
Many Thanks,

Cynthia and Bob were absolutely perfect for our event. It is always difficult to chose a band for something as important as your wedding reception. They were professional, had wonderful stage presence, very talented. I was worried because we only hired the 2 of them as they came to St. Louis, but it was like a full band. They made all the arrangements with our venue, set up well in advance as not to interrupt our dinner. They were so accomodating and really a class act. I would recommend to anyone.

The proformance was more than good .... it was fantastic.
