Feedback

  • This event was for the 75th anniversary of Bakersfield's oldest ballroom dance clubs. "The Red River Dutchmen" were extremely well received by the dancers. It took us all back to the elegant big band era. Ronald Bown, president -- Ronald B, Bakersfield, CA, 11/15/2008
  • The Red River Dutchmen Band was fantastic! The most common comment at the wedding reception was "The band is wonderful! We weren't expecting anything this great!" People, including the staff at the reception hall, asked for the band's business card. The leader of the band was attentive, very professional, and responsive to any and all musical requests. The musicianship was incredible. The vocalist was a crooner on par with the crooners of the '40s and '50s, the requested period music. They made my son's wedding such a happy and elegant occasion. This band receives our highest recommendation! -- Linda W, Hanford, CA, 11/17/2007
  • The Red River Dutchmen Band is first class! I was so impressed! They played for my parents 50th Wedding Anniversary party & they were an absolute hit! Guests were dancing before dinner was even served! They really made it special! -- Linda K, Orinda, CA, 8/14/2004
