• Awesome! Excellent! Exceptional!!! We booked with Portable Hero purely due to the excellent communications I had with Josh and we are extremely pleased with that decision. What a great group of talented professionals. They played at our Pig Pickin', in frigid weather, and had our guests (aged from 05 to 75!!!) all up dancing, laughing and completely forgetting that it was cold outside! They played a WIDE variety of music and sounded amazing the entire time. I will definitely contact them to play for future events and will highly recommend them to my friends. -- Pebbles S, Clayton, NC, 10/28/2011
