Review by Chris V.

Community EventReviewed on February 9, 2016From Minneapolis, MN

Very easy to work with, we put some tough demands on them and they came through with flying colors. Highly recommend.

Dinner DanceReviewed on November 30, 2015From Minneapolis, MN

This band was absolutely FANTASTIC! Do not hesitate to hire them. They can play anything. Kelli Rae, the band leader, went out of her way to explain how the band is organized and run, and worked with us on the play list. On the night of our Event, the band got everyone so fired up the dance floor was nearly continuously packed with guests ages 8 to 80. They picked up on subtle cues from the night's activities to alter their songs in a very special way. I loved the horn section in particular, but every musician was extremely talented (including Kelli Rae herself, on drums). We really felt we got our money's worth. They were also just such good people.

THEy were nothing short of FABULOUS! So flexible in doing a morning program, outside, at a school fundraiser with unknown attendance!! They were the very best! Everyone was so kind to our community, fit right in...and the music was incredible!! ABSOLUTELY the best decision I made in this whole extravaganza! I would do it again in a heartbeat!
