Introduction

We are a fun, professional group of musicians who love playing the music we specialize in. With over 25 years experience playing weddings, parties, dances, and fundraisers around New England, we have many happy clients to recommend us. People of all ages and walks of life enjoy our mix of Swing, Blues, Soul, Rock & Roll, Oldies, Latin, Funky, NOLA, and Motown dance and listening music. We love what we do and are easy to work with. We have a great sound with several singers, sax, guitar, piano, bass and drums which makes us versatile for many different types of events. We are flexible, can also do a smaller group, duo to 6-piece. Just get in touch and let us know what you are thinking about for your music! We can send you a song list to choose from and also learn a few special requests for you. We love the style of music that we play so enjoy our variety of gigs. We like being part of a happy occasion like a wedding or anniversary or birthday, as well as adding background music for a quieter event or part of an event, cocktail hour or dinner. People enjoy listening to our vocal harmonies and horn & guitar section music, as well as loving our groove for dancing or just tapping their feet. We enjoy working with people to tailor our music to their event.

Q&A

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

It is priced by band size and length of time we play and distance we have to travel. It's not complicated, but best priced individuallly depending on what the client wants and how many special requests they need.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

Not specifically, but playing with various musicians is always an enriching experience.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

We have all played various instruments and styles of music in our lives. We have come together to share songs we love, getting to sing and play them together, a little different each time, keeping them fresh and fun for ourselves and our clients.

What types of customers have you worked with?

Weddings, parties, fundraisers, dances, outdoor shows, and more.

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

We played for the Food Bank of Western Massachusetts and helped raise $40,000 for people who don't have enough to eat.

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

Look at our videos. Listen to our professional sound. See how long we've been doing this and how much we love it.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

How hard we work to do well the music we play. We pick songs we love and arrange them for our 3 singers plus guitar, sax, piano, bass, and drums. We love to make the songs our own and have beautiful tight arrangements which really show off the talents of the individual musicians as well as the collaborative work in the band.
