Awesome band!

We hired the band for my sister in laws graduation party and we were very pleased with them. They arrived on time and set up everything and were ready to play on time. The music was great and the crowd loved them. They were also flexible for our requests.
The kids at the party loved them and they were very cooperative.
I would hire them again for the next event I plan !!
I wish you guys all the best !

Retirement Community Social

We had an evening social that the band played for and the residents loved it! They sang along and a few couples got up and danced. Bob was wonderful to work with and came early to make sure set up and sound was ready and to a volume that the crowd would like.

They were a great group!

They set the calming vibe for the whole night. Very calming and smooth and our senior residents really liked them. One of the members were a little tardy to the party, however, they complimented by staying a bit longer than scheduled. We would definently have them back in the future.

The Bob Blagg Trio Exceeded our Expectations

The Bob Blagg Trio exceeded our expectations!
They played for my father's birthday/ Father's Day celebration. It was small group of listeners but so appreciative. Being a family of professional musicians & teachers it takes a lot of talent & skill to impress us, but they really did. They played outside at a perfect volume for easy conversation. They even let my mother sing with them when she recognized a couple of songs. They begin playing right on time. We'll be figuring out when we can hire them again.

Perfect! Bob Blagg Trio were FANTASTIC!

We just had a wedding reception/family reunion and booked the Bob Blagg Trio.
We (the hosts and guests) were so appreciative of their musical talents and assistance and patience in working around other family announcements and musical exhibitions (they provided the microphone and amp). They played light Jazz all evening, as requested, and it was perfect! So much fun had by all! Bottom-line - Book this group!!!
