Review by Brian P.

Chip I want to thank you for two things. First I wanted to let you know how happy my client was with the performance 65 South did on September 8, 2010 at The Lodge of the Four Seasons. You provided just the right music for background and when it was time you kept the dance floor rocking all night long. Knowing you and your band I didn't expect anything less than that for my client. The second thing I want to thank you about is your willingness to work with the client. I understand after you set up, the client decided to move the location. Without a word you broke down, moved and reset. As an agent representing bands I look for bands that not only perform but also get the job done. You and the members of 65 South Band get it! I will be looking forward to representing your band again with many of my clients. Thanks again.

Thank you, Brian, for your kind words of praise. 65 SOUTH prides itself as a "What Ever It Takes To Get The Job Done & Please The Client Organization." When we show up for the date, we work as a part of the team putting the event on and roll with the flow.

I personally look forward to working with you again!

Review by Al C.

Unbelievable musicianship, and even better lead singing.
One of the lead singers, Kris Spencer, is the happy result of gene sharing among Melissa Etheridge, Annie Lennox, and Ann Wilson. No kidding. No exaggeration. It's worth any admission price to see and hear her unleash the fire.
The band's website says 65 South's next visit to Missouri is to St. Charles on September 4. It'd be well worth the trip.

Testimonials

November 10, 2009 To Whom It May Concern: During the past few years, I have had several opportunities to use 65 South as the opening act for nationally known headliners in various Branson theaters. I have never been disappointed in either the group’s performance or the audience reaction. Frequently 65 South has received a standing ovation at the end of their set. Never in my career as a concert promoter, show producer and artist manager have I seen a local opening act get more positive response from an audience. When I am not working and just want an evening of great music, I try to catch up with 65 South where ever they may be playing in the area. If you are looking for a great band for your event, book 65 South. You will not be disappointed. Sincerely, SullivanShows Joe Sullivan, President
