We hired these guys to play an outdoor community Christmas party and they absolutely rocked! A great selection of songs, fabulous voice from Jon and my kids are still talking about "the only maracca solo in the world". I'll definitely be recommending them to friends and family for their gatherings, thanks guys, keep rocking!

Wow you guys are awesome! Thank you for supporting the Mothers Day event yesterday at the Te Atatu Boating Club. I have never had so much fun and being able to sing to every song. Just wish I could have heated up the dance floor but due to an ankle injury I couldn't. Jon, you and the band looked like you were having so much fun! Keep it up and I can definitely say we will be having you back at our club SOON! Rock on!
