Starr Cullars
"The amazing Starr Cullars is an excellent musician-bassist and singer-vocalist! This special lady is so much more than simply a musician-player for hire. This incredible woman is an inspirational hero. Which is why I am producing a major movie about Starr Cullars and her amazing life story."
Erika Davies Jazz
"Unbelievable Talent! A stunning voice. Magical music. They performed for a beautiful gatsby themed party. It couldn’t have gone better! I’ve hired many musicians in the past & Erika was 20 out of 10!"
John Lowery
"John impressed me! He was on time, even early, set up seamlessly, invoiced me promptly and fit right into our outside work luncheon environment. Everyone really enjoyed his style and music selections. Took cues from the days event and just rolled with whatever we were doing. I appreciated very much the promptness of his initial correspondence. He was very easy to work with. I would 100% hire him again for an event. His price point beat all others AND the quality was terrific. Hire John Lowery Music, you won't be sorry!!"
Joe’s Boyz
"I saw Joe’s Boyz perform at The Hood in Palm Desert and I was blown away! I can’t pronounce the guitarist’s name correctly but he shredded! Every aspect of the band was on point; guitar, vocals, keys, bass and drums! I know they’re only a four-piece now but I would pay $50 to see them live again!"
SouthBound and Company
"The guys of SouthBound and Company performed in our backyard on our dock. They were amazing. Very professional, courteous and easy to work with.
We've actually had them for the past four years for our annual party. Great variety of music not overbearingly loud like a lot of bands and just a great bunch of guys. We highly recommend them, Jan n Jim Sannebeck"
Here 4 Now
"It was truly a pleasure having you and the band perform at our Summer Concert Series. You helped create such a fun and welcoming atmosphere, and it was wonderful to see so many people enjoying your music throughout the evening.
Thank you for being so easy to work with and for helping make the event a success. We’d be delighted to have you back for a future event and hope our paths cross again soon."
