Benjamin Buttner
"Ben impressed us so much with his diverse repertoire and fine skills as a singer and guitarist. We will definitely be hiring him back!"
RENTaFRIEND Band
"Wow! So much fun! Everyone needs more friends like this! Soaring lead vocals with spine tingling harmonies paired with melting lead guitar, keys and to top it all off groove inducing bass and drums. Rent a Friend Band is the whole package and provides something for everyone, with a set list curated from all your favorite hits spanning multiple generations! These fun loving professional musicians are a pleasure to work with. They had our venue popping and we can't wait to have them back."
Up Til Dawn Band
"Up Til Dawn was absolutely incredible!! My husband insisted that we have a band - and after watching just one promo video from Up Til Dawn we committed! Kari was extremely helpful and professional throughout the whole process. Easy to work with, answered our many questions, and encouraged us to send along any special songs we wanted played. The band not only learned all the songs, they absolutely nailed them at the wedding! The group was lovely as individuals and fit right into our day. And then there music! I was shocked to see how many people were up on their feet and not sitting - even aunts, parents, and older family friends! They made the wedding unforgettable!"
4 Lads From Liverpool
"This is the third time that we have hired 4 Lads From Liverpool and they draw the biggest crowds of any other group in Sierra Madre. They really know how to get a crowd going and having a good time.. We will most likely or hire them again next year."
Private Affair Band
"Have you ever wondered what makes a great party? We learned quickly that it is Private Affairs. We hired this band for an upscale 70th Birthday Party, and without them, this event would have been just another party. The theme was the 70s, and not only did all the band members embrace it by dressing in 70s garb, but they also embraced the spirit of the party and created the most fun and engaging atmosphere. They are consummate professionals and wonderful human beings. Their interaction with the party-goers helped make this event fun and memorable for everyone. All evening long, our guests came up to us and said things like, "What a band", and "Who are these great musicians"? If you want to elevate your event and are looking for FUN, do not hesitate to engage Private Affairs."
B. Thompson
"What an amazing performance. B.Thompson is not only talented as Saxophonist but he is also an Amazing Entertainer. 100% recommendation to book him."
