These guys are the real deal… what an honor it was to have them perform at our Christmas party this past Monday evening. They were so nice and professional. Everyone loved their energy, and perfect harmony. We will definitely be looking out for them to perform for a future event.

August 19, 2019"Ball in the House" is AWESOME!
I hired "Ball in the House" for my mom's birthday party and they were SO good! They chose a song list that suited all ages. I loved how they explained and demonstrated each part of the "band" to our attentive crowd. Thank you so much for making mom's party so special! I highly recommend them.

November 28, 2021Outstanding!
We absolutely loved Ball in the House's performance. They exceeded expectations and brought the right amount of sound and energy to the event. We had a two hour outdoor event with about 400 people. The amplification was great and they were able roam and engage for all aspects of the event that were needed. We can't wait to have them back!

November 21, 2021Great job!
Ball in the House was a great surprise for my father-in-law and they introduced so much professionalism, artistry and humor. It made a family gathering more like an "event" and definitely made the guest of honor feel special. I was grateful that they were willing to take a covid test right before the show on behalf of an elderly guest.
