Tell Me Something Good
“I’ve hired Fast Times for a number of events, from private events such as weddings to larger public fairs / festivals, and I have always found their team to be reliable, communicative and completely professional. The band is really fun, accommodating and a really fun high energy show, that our clients have all appreciated. Mike and his team are an excellent choice as a band for an event. Thanks Fast Times.” From Jay S. via Yelp review (five stars)
“You guys are incredible. Everyone LOVED your music and had a fantastic time grooving to the songs. We sincerely appreciate the energy and fun that you brought to our event. We hope to have you back out next year for some more fun!!!” - Marissa M. Event Planner
“Fun, Flexible and Fabulous! We hired Fast Times to play at an 80s-themed corporate event and they were a hit all around! Their communication was great, they arrived in plenty of time to be set up and ready for go time, and they were very flexible and adaptable to specific requests we had. The songs were great and they kept the crowd going all night. When they were all done, they even acquiesced to the group request for ‘one more song!’ and hit the finale out of the park. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend!” - Mindy N. Corporate Event Planner 5 Star Review
