"Sunday afternoon brunch with live music, or Saturday night music matters series at Liberty & Plenty distillery. A great demographic of patrons. Indoor and outdoor seating and performance area. Very low pressure environment for musicians."

Brazil Flavor Music
"Perfect.
Brazil Flavor Music was exactly what we needed for our event. The duo catered their music and brought the perfect vibe to our reception. In regards to booking, they stayed communicating with me, keeping me updated on any changes. They are very friendly, kind, and humble, and you can tell they love what they do. Musically, they are incredibly talented. Several attendees came to us during our event to compliment the music selection for the afternoon. Lastly, our event was 3.5 hours away from them, yet they willingly drove, arrived early/on time, set up, and were ready to go as soon as the doors opened. We will definitely be hiring them again in the future and we recommend them for sure. Thank you again, Brazil Flavor Music!

"All we can say is Wow! Jay and his crew were amaaaaaazing! Truly made the night so memorable and fun. We couldn't be happier. From the minute they got to our house until they packed up their last instrument, they were nothing but professional, polite, respectful and friendly. And let's talk about how talented and entertaining they were! Even our neighbors said that they sat in their driveway and enjoyed the sounds of the evening. They truly ""brought the house down"" and we couldn't be more grateful and appreciative. We thanked Jay, and Rob's in touch w him about Venmo-ing, what we hope is a generous tip for him and his band. Monica, you too have been nothing but so helpful and gracious. It takes a village and we are so grateful for our fantastic village of vendors such as you and Jay. Thanks again for everything!!

THE "ORIGINAL" MOONLIGHTERS ®
"We hired the Original Moonlighters for our wedding band, and they were absolutely fantastic! We had a large wedding, with a lot of guests that have different musical tastes, but this band was able to get everyone on the dance floor and brought amazing energy to the wedding. They had a wide set list and made our special day even more fun."
A Sought Out City
"So happy we decided to book A Sought Out City. They were very helpful with everything we needed and would most definitely book them again for future events. We received alot of positive feedback from all who attended the event with the music! Such a great day and unforgettable experience.
