Testimonials:

Hi Liza,

The band was fantastic and the best we have ever had!! Our group thoroughly enjoyed them and they managed to keep them dancing most of the night! I was also impressed with how kind they were................no arrogance at all and extremely nice to me. We definitely want them again next year and as soon as I can get the date for our party, I will let you know.

You certainly steered me in the right direction with Erik Blue!!!
