Generation Rewind 90's Band
"Amazing is the word to describe this band! Hired for a corporate event, and they did not disappoint! From the lead singer to the keyboard player, I was really impressed with how professional and talented they were. If I am not mistaken, the keyboardist and singer toured for Beyonce and Ceelo Green. The drummer had energy for days, and the bass player and guitar player were very talented. The male lead singer talked to the crowd and had a great voice. I would definitely hire them again."
BackForward / Adam Cartwright
"Talented across the board!
We were blown away by Adam’s professionalism, attention to detail, musical talent and fun factor at our recent party! The cherry on top was his ability to take great quality professional photos! Adam was a great MC who took my DJ playlist inspiration and ran with it to create the perfect playlist for our party. And we can’t forget the Taylor Swift meets Coachella rendition of Happy Birthday which flowed into Jack & Diane. Such a fantastic addition to the event!"
Jimi King Trio

Blood Moon Mafia
"We highly recommend Blood Moon Mafia. We hired them for our daughter's 14th birthday party and they were amazing! Incredibly talented group of artists, from the singer to the drummer to the guitarists, they more than delivered. Our daughter curated a playlist for them to use and they put together a very enjoyable mini concert and everyone was blown away. They more than met our expectations and we would definitely hire them again!"
