"Playing Live Band delivers an outstanding performance with great energy and musicianship. Their ability to engage the audience and create an unforgettable atmosphere is truly impressive. The setlist was diverse, catering to different musical tastes, and each song was performed with passion and skill. The band members are professional, talented, and clearly love what they do. Whether you're looking for live music for an event or just want to enjoy a fantastic performance, Playing Live Band is a top choice. Highly recommended!"

"Customer Reviews ​ Review received on 6/21/2024 Wrecking Crew Express was a huge hit at our Senior Prom event. Our residents ages 70+ could not stay in their chairs and wanted to keep dancing. They are talking about it! We're excited to invite them back at our next event. The band was absolutely awesome! Reviewer: Shaleen McCart Event Date: June 20th, 2024 Services Provided: 1960s Era Entertainment ​ ​ Wrecking Crew Express brings down the house. I can not even keep track of how many standing ovations this fantastic, great, professional, awesome, best ever band had. These are just some of the adjectives describing how the audience enjoyed the Wrecking Crew Express and wanted to know when they would be back. The joint was jumping. They had people up and dancing that haven't moved in years. One woman that had cerebral palsy and had never danced (except sitting in a chair) was so moved that she stood up grabbed the chair for support and danced.I could go on and on. Wrecking Crew Express WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

After only about 5 songs our group already decided that the band would be hired for next year’s event also. We have been hosting RV rally events for 10 years and this was the best yet.

We had Wrecking Crew Express perform at our house for a B-Day party on Saturday. They blew us away with how awesome they are as singers and musicians. The three lead singers were fabulous. Gary was so easy to work with and organized everything for us. We had a crowd of about 60 people. Everyone I talked to was blown away at the quality of the music. Strongly recommend!

My guests were so pleased! The Wrecking Crew stayed in communication with me, showed up on time, helped with room set up, and dazzled my guests with their musical talent. Not only was their music incredible, their sensitivity to the event and kindness to my husband and me while performing will never be forgotten. I couldn't recommend a band more for any event that you want to have a good time and dance with gusto!

We had a wonderful time. We love it when the guests have fun also! What a fun time, you sure put on a fantastic party. We will also remember the fun times , we love it when we feel we made new friends for life! ​ Review received on 4/30/2023 So talented and so much fun! This band was so much fun and wow, the talent was off the chart! Not only did our guests come up to me that evening to say what a great band this was, but now it's the day after and we are still hearing about it! We couldn't have asked for a better evening! Now I want to plan another event so we can have the Band back! Everyone in the band was cordial and a lot of fun! Class act!

Wrecking Crew Express helped celebrate our Mother’s 80th birthday bash. Gary was super helpful prior to our event with suggestions for the best performance possible. They were very open to our song selections and promise to deliver an amazing performance. On the day of the event the band arrived an hour early to set up their equipment and when the time arrived to start jamming, it was pure magic the rest of the night. The band interacted with our guest. Got the entire party dancing and really took care of the birthday girl. All of guest enjoyed the music and it was truly a night that myself and the my mother will never forget. Thank you wrecking Crew!! ​ Reviewer: Paul Gonzales Event Date: September 18th, 2021 Services Provided: 1960s Era Entertainment, 1970s Era Entertainment, Oldies Music, Party Band Review received on 1/21/2023 Great Band!

"Sonic Dream was the perfect band for our gala. They played fun songs that people knew, but with a twist and mash-up so it was also a good conversation starter at the tables. We actually got the recommendation from two different people to book them, so it was also nice to see people we trusted also liked them. Jeff was also always very responsive which made working with them before and after easy- something that's very helpful when working on a big event with a lot of moving parts!"

"Žana and Boris performed at our wedding in several beautiful segments – from the reception party alongside the DJ, to church music, and even during dinner where their soothing melodies played in the background. From the very first contact, they impressed us with their professionalism, calm energy, and genuine warmth. Žana's voice is absolutely stunning; her performance of Ave Maria left everyone in the church in tears. It was so powerful, so moving – truly unforgettable. The connection they create with the audience is something rare, and every moment they shared with us felt personal and special. We received glowing recommendations for them from multiple sources, and now we fully understand why! Their talent, grace, and attention to detail made our wedding even more memorable. We can’t wait to see them perform again at another joyful occasion!"

"LA Mixtrax - thank you so much for your professional and flexible approach to HM23, from the pre-event planning to arriving to set up on the day at 8am(!) and then delivering on everything you had promised. You went the extra mile for our runners in extending your playing time to accommodate the significantly larger number of runners we had this year. We loved your main stage performance, which had such an infectious energy and the quality of your musicianship was self-evident, and played a lovely part in making this event a very successful and memorable one!"

"Wow! One week on and I am still revelling in memories from my 50th birthday party with Herding Katz performing! They were AWEOME!!! I am honestly trying to think of a reason to host another party soon, just to get them to play again. All my guests raved about the band, songs played and how great it was that they were so engaging of the crowd. Friends are already planning on booking them for their parties in the future. Gary was so professional and friendly from first contact. We chatted about music genres and favourite bands, and straight away I knew they were exactly the band I was looking for. Good old pub sing-a-longs and rock classics from my youth. The band are a friendly group of guys who obviously enjoy music and performing. They had my young kids, party guests, myself, my hubby all up on stage at one time or another singing along or playing an instrument. No pressure, just fun! I seriously had the best birthday ever dancing, singing and partying while the band played. I can not emphasis how much fun Herding Katz were and how awesome the night was! So many great memories. I can’t thank these guys enough for making my party the huge success it was. Can’t wait to see you guys again and rock on! Thanks guys so much for the most amazing night of music and partying! I would be happy to recommend Herding Katz to anyone that was considering booking them. Do yourself a favour, you will have the time of your life!"

"We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band than Already Legends! They truly stood out as unique. Their high-energy performance was brilliant, and the guitar solo in the middle of the dance floor was just awesome! Nico was proactive and helpful throughout the planning process, maintaining great communication. With their broad and extensive repertoire of tracks spanning decades, there were plenty of songs to choose from. We collaborated to create the playlist, and they skillfully read the room, keeping our guests on their feet all night long. We are still receiving compliments from our guests about the band and how much fun they had. They made our wedding even more unforgettable. Highly recommended!"

Nate chose songs which were entirely appropriate for our guests and age ranges. Everyone at the event commented on how great the music was. Be sure to book Nate for your next event - you won't be disappointed!"
