Feedback

  • Although one of the musicians had a car accident and was not able to make the gig, the other two musicians took up the slack and provided an excellent program for our audience. They were very sensitive to the audience and took many requests. I hope to have them back. Recommended. -- Greg B, Philadelphia, PA, 6/15/2008
  • We met with a number of groups and by far Renee was the BEST!! Not only did she take care of every detail prior to our reception, Renee had the WHOLE party out on the dance floor for three hours of non stop fun... -- Bill B, Conshohocken, PA, 7/15/2006
