Hi Jon, been a fan of yours for years. The other night while I was researching something on kickstarter a rap song came to me. I am not a song writer I am an Architect, Artist, Poet, Cartoonist and father of 5 great kids and grandfather to 4 beautiful grandkids. I am excited that you are getting back to your mission of music with a message."

Groove Nation Orchestra
"Dave and the band were incredible for our wedding. They had the dancefloor packed and jamming the entire time they played. Every song they played sounded great; the overall talent of the band was evident. We would HIGHLY recommend GNO for someone else's wedding, they played a great list and the special dance songs were top notch! Literally dozens of our wedding guests told us that night and the following day how awesome a band they were and how great the party was, and we completely agree! Thanks again to Dave and GNO, you guys helped make our special day even more memorable!"
Bake & The Tenderhearts
"Bake and the Tenderhearts were live and in person on The Last 24 Hours show with Host Elliotte Threatt. The group performed 4 Motown songs singing and dancing. Additionally, they commente on their history and the influences of Smokey Robinson. They were fantastic with beutiful old school harmonies and highly choreographed dance moves. A true performance jewel to witness."
