Glory Days Kelowna Duo "Fantastic musicians. We've heard them play many times and they are a very talented team. We always have a great time." Based in Kelowna, British Columbia (28 miles from Penticton) 22nd March 2026 D Bryan

Trevor Salloum Jazz Trio "Thank you so much, Trevor! The band sounded wonderful, and provided the perfect atmosphere for the crowd. Mom loved it! We are already talking about a sequel next year… You guys were great - thanks again!!" Based in Kelowna, British Columbia (28 miles from Penticton) F.D. Coldstream, BC. - Private Party

Howard Lee Naylor "Howard arrived on time, promptly set up and was professional and polite. Howard shared his web page to listen to some of his work, this helped me to know what to expect and I was very happy to find him in a short notice. We enjoyed having Howard play at our client event. We received great feedback and reviews from our guests, everyone enjoyed his music! Howard even took and played some requests!" Based in Surrey, British Columbia (148 miles from Penticton) Nelly Hamilton - KRP - Family BBQ

John Nicholson Saxophone "He was great to work with and guests loved him. He’s awesome!" Based in Vancouver, British Columbia (160 miles from Penticton) 9th September 2026 Angela Naseri - Wedding

Beauty Shop Dolls "Thank you Beauty Shop Dolls for making our Christmas party magical. We had a blast! We loved everything about your show, it was classy and perfectly planned on theme. The dress changes were a beautiful touch, to an already fabulous performance (I especially loved the blue feathers 😊). Everyone in the office is still buzzing from the dance class too. Highly, highly recommended!" Based in Vancouver, British Columbia (160 miles from Penticton) T Dic - Company 1920s Christmas Party

Good Co "We hired Good Co for our 1920's themed holiday party. They were extremely flexible and accommodating, especially when we asked if they would follow our leadership around the office as they gathered people for the party. Awesome talent, great at judging sound vs space. Our office is pretty echo-y and loud, but they found the right balance immediately. Definitely keeping on the books for next time!" Based in Seattle, Washington, United States (180 miles from Penticton) Ashley V - Corporate Party
