"Just a fabulous evening rockin' to this band at a 50th Wedding Anniversary for my parents-in-law. They really looked the part, were fabulous musicians, they played 3 sets, were very flexible and wanted to ensure they were playing the songs we all wanted. As a result everybody thoroughly enjoyed the evening and the dance floor was packed all night. "

"The East Coast Rockers were excellent! They had the room buzzing right through their sets. We will definitely be booking them again. If you want to be sure of a great night, book this group of musicians. Jenny "

"Brothers After All - Allman Brothers Tribute at Crazy Uncle Mike's, May 31, 2025 On May 31, 2025, Brothers After All delivered a soulful and electrifying performance at Crazy Uncle Mike’s in Boca Raton, FL, paying tribute to the Allman Brothers Band with a show that captured the heart of Southern rock. Hailing from Florida’s Treasure Coast, this ensemble showcased their reputation as a premier tribute act, blending virtuosic musicianship with a vibrant stage presence that transported the audience back to the Allman Brothers’ golden era. The show kicked off at 9:00 PM, with the band diving into a meticulously crafted setlist that spanned the Allman Brothers’ iconic catalog. Enhanced by dynamic visual effects, the performance was an immersive experience, blending blues, rock, and jazz-infused improvisation. The YouTube livestream, available for those who couldn’t attend, captured the energy well, but the electric atmosphere at Crazy Uncle Mike’s, amplified by the venue’s intimate vibe and enthusiastic crowd was unparalleled. The first set opened with the fiery one-two punch of Don’t Want You No More and Not My Cross to Bear, setting the tone with searing guitar riffs and soulful organ swells. Tracks like Southbound and Black Hearted Woman brought high-energy grooves, while Blue Sky and Soulshine showcased the band’s emotional depth. The second set was equally compelling, with highlights including a heartfelt Melissa, an extended jam on In Memory of Elizabeth Reed, and a crowd-pleasing Midnight Rider. The night reached a peak when Jeff Prine joined the band for the final two songs of the second set, One Way Out and Whipping Post, adding an extra layer of intensity and authenticity that sent the audience into a frenzy. The band, featuring Lefty Hathaway’s soulful vocals and organ, Pete Quigley and Dave Lasman’s dual guitar interplay, Will Keehner’s dynamic bass, and the powerhouse percussion of Mike Loschiavo, Hosny Franck, and Mitch Fine, delivered each song with precision and passion. The guitarists’ interplay evoked the iconic Duane Allman-Dickey Betts dynamic, while Hathaway’s vocals captured Gregg Allman’s gritty emotion. Crazy Uncle Mike’s, with its welcoming vibe and excellent food and drink offerings, was the perfect backdrop. The show ran until around midnight, leaving the crowd exhilarated. For those who missed it, the performance is available on Crazy Uncle Mike’s YouTube channel, offering a chance to relive the magic. Brothers After All didn’t just perform, they honored the Allman Brothers legacy with authenticity and heart, making this a must-see for Southern rock fans.

"Rob never fails to fill the room in Osoyoos. He is a crowd favorite who is often asked to reappear at the local venues and never seems to tire. I have booked him many times and he never fails to please."

"Band super!!!! Cercavamo una band che creasse un'atmosfera, vintage, energica, divertente ma nello stesso tempo raffinata. I ragazzi sono da subito stati disponibilissimi e trasparenti su quello che la loro band ci avrebbe offerto: ogni promessa è stata mantenuta e le aspettative superate. La band propone un repertorio vintage ma anche moderno. Hanno un sound che spacca e l'atmosfera si scalda subito. Scegliendoli non animerete soltanto il vostro matrimonio, ma regalerete ai vostri ospiti un vero e proprio concerto! Due fiati, chitarra, basso e batteria, cosa chiedere di più! La simpatia ovviamente: i selfportrait sono uno spasso, con un'ironia veramente eccezionale! L'unico rammarico al nostro matrimonio è che saremmo andati avanti a sentirli suonare per ore, e invece il tempo è stato tiranno. Hanno fatto ballare tutti, compresa gente che di solito non muove un passo. Si sono prestati con simpatia alle sorprese preparate dai nostri ospiti e hanno saputo fare fronte a una serata complicata da ritardi e cambi di programma repentini dovuti al mal tempo. Ogni momento animato da loro dall'aperitivo al dopocena è stato fantastico. E anche la playlist passata in sottofondo durante la cena era azzeccatissima. Grazie davvero ragazzi. Senza di voi non sarebbe stato lo stesso."

"I was given the responsibility of finding a band for my Nan and Grandad’s Diamond Wedding Anniversary party. I booked The Ramrods for this event and they were fantastic! My Nan and Grandad reminisce their dancing days, listening to songs they used to dance and jive to. Everyone enjoyed listening and dancing to the songs they brilliantly performed all night. Would highly recommend this rockabilly band for any special occasion."

"Saw them at open air festival in Tunbridge Wells. Lots of people dancing - very energetic and somewhat unpredictable in terms of unusual covers done in a rock and roll style"
