Some Recent letters of thank you from our terrific clients!
Hi Laraine,
What an amazing weekend! From start to finish. You are right....the weather was perfect, as was the band. Keith was so helpful and pleasant. I am still in disbelief that the band actually played a wedding where Bruce Springstein was a guest! Talk about preasure!!!! Our guest list was not anywhere as near impressive (Taylor Swift and her parents were invited - old family freinds - but they couldn't come).
We did have a great time, thanks to the band. They played all our requested songs, and played them well, in spite of us all singing along. As I told Keith, one of the bridesmaids (Patrice Davis) is the wedding coordinator for the Yacht Club of Stone Harbor, and she called us last fall in the middle of a reception to say that your band was playing at the club for the first time and they were fabulous. She gave us your number and suggested we call, which we did the very next day. She was certainly right! Patty's father, Peter Mner, is the manager of the Yacht Club and on Sunday, we mentioned to him how great the band was and suggested that he keep you in mind for events at the club next summer. I am copying both Patty and Peter on this email so you have their addresses if you want to reach out to them directly. We have been members of the club for 45 years, and have heard many bands. Your mix of music is just what the membership likes.
Thank you again for being part of such a special event for our family. It really was a pleasure dealing with you and we hope to have an opportunity to dance to your music again.

Laraine, Keith,Your band was flat out awesome. I had everyone come up to me during and after the wedding raving about the band. You made our night incredible....it kicked ass big time. The only thing missing was Laraine hanging out with us which we were hoping for.When we were leaving Holly Hedge the next morning Wendy had 2 couples who were looking at the facilities to have their wedding. I told them that they needed to have you do their wedding if they wanted it to be good.Thank you very much for coming to our wedding and putting on a great show. Your musicians were awesome and Keith ran things like a champ.Best regards,Mark & Diana Allen

Hi Laraine,Just wanted to say thanks to you, Keith and the rest of the band for a fantastic performance at our wedding! We had a great time and got a ton of good comments on the music. Even my extremely hard-to-please mom and grandma raved about it and were out dancing! We couldn't have asked for anything better... The songs and style were perfect for our reception, and though we were off taking photos during the cocktail hour, everyone said the trio was great during that too.Steve's song that he worked out with you and Keith was a total surprise, and I loved it! I thought maybe he was going to play something, but I never imagined he'd sing too. And you probably heard that one of our friends from college joined in and sang a song as well, which was so fun to see.Thanks for being so easy to work with and for keeping in touch. It made my long-distance planning that much easier. As promised, here are some photos from the wedding on our photographer's blog. Will send you a few more of the band/reception once I get the rest of the photos from her.Thanks for everything - hope to be in touch again someday soon!Lindsay and Steve
Laraine & Keith-
I want to thank you for helping make Kate & Matt’s wedding at the Holly Hedge a smashing success. We received so many compliments on your band’s performance….from young and old! They particularly commented on the jazz ensemble that played during the ceremony and cocktail hour. It was a real hit. I trusted Matt with making those arrangements, and he didn’t disappoint. It was a great touch.
Thanks again for a great evening.
Regards,
Bob Morford

Good Night Irene
Probably the last song of the night at Chad and Becky's Wedding!
"Neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays these
couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds"
In other words "Let's rock and roll"
