Based in St Louis, Missouri Reese Barnett Photo of Bake & The Tenderhearts 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." Based in Kansas City, Missouri Elliotte Threatt - Tela Vida Television/ ,The last 24 Hours Photo of OPOV Band OPOV Band "Fundraising Ball for Easterseals of the Birmingham Area OPOV was amazing!! They exceeded my expectations and I have high expectations!! I am the Director of Development for a nonprofit in Birmingham, we had our annual fundraising ball at a club in Birmingham and we wanted an exceptional band for our event. OPOV really made the whole experience! The crowd was on the dance floor ALL NIGHT, they were like a well-greased machine knowing what song to play next and keep the party alive. You will get your money worth when you hire OPOV! They were also SO EASY to communicate with, answers on the spot and even scheduled times to talk to me -- like I said, I have high expectations and they met them all!! Also, our event was a Mardi Gras Ball, so the band dressed in theme!" Based in Calera, Alabama Cathelyn B. - Corporate Event Photo of XCITEMENT XCITEMENT "Look at our #1 fan standing next to our singer Ronald Adams. We had 12 fans from London, England stay with us for 4 hours. They wouldn’t let us leave. We had to perform longer so we got a picture out of the deal.
