"City of Anaheim Pearson Park Amphitheatre hosted Eagles Ronstadt Experience on August 6, 2022. The group was very entertaining, patrons were dancing and enjoying the authentic sound from the Eagles and the added bonus of Linda Ronstadt. Amazing!! We had a full house of 1000 guests. Cannot wait to book again!"

"This band is hot mess of talent and fun, they are outside the box, energetic and enthusiastic to say the least. Their song catalogue is always upbeat and happy and every time I’ve seen them I end the night smiling. I highly recommend this band for any occasion, big stage, small stage, indoor or out, total pros who love to entertain!"

"I booked Total Affect for a festival-themed garden party - Wendfest ! If classic rock is what you are after then these are the guys to book. They were playing outside in the garden under two gazebos. Highly recommended!"

"We booked White Light for our Wedding in July 2019, they were incredible. From the very start of communications they were professional, polite and informative of what they needed and what they could offer. On the day we couldn't have asked for any more from them, perfect technically, great stage presence and people-pleasing set-list. Will be recommending them to anyone who is after a function band! "

"White Light were brilliant. From the setting up, to the music and entertainment right through to clearing up; every single member of the band were lovely. And, to top it all, their talent is second to none- they made the night- thank you so much, 50th Birthdays don’t get any better. Highly recommend these guys"

"Wedding - Dawn S. - May 15th, 2021 We booked Josh West Trio for our 70-person outdoor Scottsdale wedding in May, and they were absolutely phenomenal! They were extremely professional leading up to and during our event, making sure they had the lay of the land and were coming well prepared with the right equipment etc. Josh also graciously offered to bring an extra keyboard along so my Uncle could play a special processional song for my walk down the aisle. Their music is on-point for a mixed-age audience, vocals were off the charts, and every one of our guests were signing, dancing and raving about their performance. You will not regret booking these guys - they made our special day even more special and we are SO thrilled we chose them for our wedding!"

"In the balmy evening air of Stuart, Florida, on April 26, 2025, the Terra Fermata Tiki Bar transformed into a time machine, whisking a crowd of over 500 fans back to the legendary 1971 Fillmore East concerts. Brothers After All, the premier Allman Brothers Band tribute act hailing from Southeast Florida, took the stage for a meticulously crafted recreation of the iconic live album At Fillmore East in their first set. What unfolded was nothing short of a magical performance that captured the raw energy, improvisational genius, and soulful blues-rock essence of the original Allman Brothers Band, leaving attendees buzzing with nostalgia and awe. Terra Fermata, with its open air tiki vibe, palm trees swaying under string lights, and a stage backed by the Florida sunset, proved to be an unexpectedly perfect setting for this tribute. The venue, known for hosting eclectic acts from reggae to jam bands, was packed wall-to-wall by 8 PM, with fans spilling onto the outdoor patios. Drawing a diverse crowd: die-hard Allman aficionados in their 60s and 70s, younger jam-band enthusiasts discovering the classics, and even families introducing the next generation to Southern rock royalty. The atmosphere was electric, fueled by cold brews and the anticipation of hearing those timeless tracks come alive. Brothers After All kicked off the set with Statesboro Blues, the opener from At Fillmore East, and immediately set the tone with dual guitar harmonies that echoed Duane Allman and Dickey Betts' legendary interplay. Lead guitarist Pete Quigley channeled Duane's slide guitar wizardry with precision, his fingers dancing across the strings in a way that felt both reverent and innovative. Opposite him, rhythm guitarist Dave Lasman delivered Betts' melodic lines with fiery passion, their chemistry evident in extended jams that stretched the song well beyond its album length, much to the crowd's delight. The band didn't just play the album; they embodied it. Drummer duo Mike Loschiavo, Hosny “Hoz” Franck along with Mitch Fine on percussion replicated the thunderous percussion of Butch Trucks, and Jaimoe, locking into grooves that pulsed with organic rhythm. Bassist Will Keehner held down the low end with Berry Oakley's funky precision, while keyboardist/vocalist Lefty Hathaway nailed Gregg Allman's vocals and Hammond B3 organ swells. Highlights included the epic 23-minute rendition of "Whipping Post," where the band's improvisations ventured into psychedelic territories, and "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed," which featured a jaw-dropping drum solo that had the audience on their feet. What made this show truly unbelievable was the attention to detail. Brothers After All used period accurate gear to recreate the warm, analog sound of the original recordings. They played the album in sequence, complete with the between song banter and crowd noise cues that fans know by heart. By the time they closed with You Don't Love Me, the tiki bar felt like Fillmore itself, alive with cheers and applause. Audience reactions were overwhelmingly positive, with many attendees praising the band's authenticity and energy. Here's a roundup of remarks from attendees we spoke with post-show: Tom H., 68, from Palm Beach Gardens: I've seen the real Allmans back in 72, and these guys nailed it. The guitar duels were spot on it felt like Duane was up there smiling down. Best tribute I've ever seen! Sarah L., 32, from Jupiter: I'm new to the Allman Brothers, but this show hooked me. The jams were endless and so hypnotic. Over 500 people dancing under the stars! Unforgettable. Brothers After All made me a fan for life. Mike and Lisa R., a couple in their 50s from Stuart: We come to Terra Fermata all the time, but this was next level. The crowd was huge, but the vibe was intimate. Stormy Monday gave me chills the vocals were pure Gregg. Kudos to the band for keeping the spirit alive! Emily K., 25, from Miami (visiting family): As a Phish fan, I love long jams, and this delivered. The energy was insane; everyone was singing along. Wish they would tour more; I'd follow them like the Deadheads do! Anonymous fan overheard in the crowd: This wasn't a cover band; it was a resurrection. With that many people packed in, it could have been chaotic, but the sound was crystal clear. Epic night! Minor quibbles: The outdoor venue meant occasional wind affecting the sound mix early on, and with such a large turnout, lines for drinks were long during set breaks. But these were footnotes in an otherwise flawless evening. Brothers After All proved why they're considered one of today’s top tribute acts, blending respect for the source material with their own flair. If you're a fan of classic rock, jam bands, or just great live music, catch Brothers After All show "

"This Foo Fighters cover band nailed it! From the first chord to the final encore, the energy was off the charts. Spot-on vocals, killer guitar work, and dead on rhythm section. The crowd was on fire. If you’re a Foos fan, this is the closest you’ll get to the real thing. Can’t wait for the next gig!"

"We just wanted to say a huge thank you for playing at our wedding on July 27th. Everything was perfect and you really made the night! So many people came up to us afterwards and said how great you are. From speaking to me and Joe beforehand about our ideal set list and answering any queries we may have had, to playing like you did and making our night as special and memorable as it was, we can’t thank you enough. We can’t recommend you strongly enough, you were better than we could ever have hoped for."
