Feedback
- Zipper played at our first annual block party. Thanks to the band everyone on the block can’t wait to party with them again next year. A perfect band for family and friends of all ages; Zipper played all the songs we wanted to hear. Every member of the band was 100% professional from the time we booked them until the time they departed. And if the music wasn’t enough, the band manager came with a camera and filled in as the block party photographer! We can’t say enough how satisfied we were! -- Jason S, Hyattsville, MD, 8/31/2008
- Zipper played at our home for our daugther's 21st birthday. They did a nice job of reading the crowd and entertaining all ages. They were also very flexible with their setup given an outdoor event. Would definately recommend them for a fun evening! -- Peggy G, Annapolis, MD, 6/14/2008
- The band Zipper is an excellant value! Good talent, good time and in my case the high point of my daughter's reception. They play the older songs, but they play their versions of them which was quite entertaining. I think all of those who enjoy rock & roll had an excellent time thanks to them. VERY PLEASED with Zipper. -- George S, Occoquan, VA, 8/26/2006
- I can't tell you how impressed we are with how professional and talented this group is. We planned a long distance party for our daughter on the Capital Elite cruise ship just ONE WEEK ahead of time and Zipper bent over backwards to help us make it happen. The review from the college students (the toughest critics!)who enjoyed the party was "They were AWESOME!!) Thank you very much, Zipper, for truly "making the party"!
Richard and Karen Langhart -- Richard And Karen L, Washington, DC, 5/5/2006
- The party went great! I can't tell you how many compliments I received from my guests regarding the band. They were flawless and played the best selection of music. They really helped make the event a great success.

- An extremely professional band. They are very talented, and made our event tons of fun! On and off stage, they are a very nice, easy going bunch of guys. They are very easy to work with and showed up right on time. We highly recommend them to anyone who wants great entertainment with no hassel. Worth every penny and then some!
Thanks again,
Elizabeth's Landing Social Commitee -- Cristy T, Pasadena, MD, 7/4/2005
- I hired Zipper for my birthday party and they were amazing!
Everybody agreed that the band rocked!!! They were on time, extremely professional, and they played exactly the right songs to get everyone to dance. I will defiantly hire them again :)

- The band really worked with us to make the event run smoothly. They were very energetic and really worked the crowd. I would recommend them for any event! -- Hillary W, Richmond, VA, 11/7/2008
- Zipper was great. It rained on my outdoor party, but they squished in a smallish indoor space, and the party went on. They were lively and fun. The music was just what I expected from the description on Gigmasters. Highly recommend them - and we'll probably have them again for future parties. Dave & Jennifer
