    CLIENT FEEDBACK:  

    I had a good feeling about the band from our first conversation, but Pete and the rest of the musicians far surpassed my expecations for our event! In spite of the dreary weather, these guys were upbeat and well prepared for our outdoor stage. They played the songs on my request list and we got many, many verbal and written comments from participants and volunteers about how much they loved the live music, which was a first for our 19-year old event. I would not hesitate to recommend Emerald City Throwdown to anyone looking for great music and professional entertainment - they really know how to put on a show! ~Sue Beauvais, Co-chair for Tour de Peaks 2007

    Pete and the rest of the band are phenomenal! Their musicality is of the highest caliber, their energy is stunning, and their character is of the highest quality. We have received so many compliments from those who came to the wedding and many of the accolades belong to the band. I am so glad we chose Emerald City Throwdown from all the others and I look forward to having an excuse to call on them again.

    I had to change the date to the 24th. Pete was not phased neccassary schedule pushing. He was goino to be out of town. So he told me Pete Sams would be the lead singer. Then to my surprise Leni was up front on the congas singing and the lead guitarist sang also. Some songs they all sang and just nailed the tone dead on. All of our guests raved about the band. A guest from Microsoft will book them. Thanks Pete for making Cheryl's 50th her best Terris Hanenburg
