STARDUST is a variety band which can just as easily play Jazz and R&B standards as they can Country favorites old and new and danceable rock n roll. From "Misty" to "Moonlight in Vermont", STARDUST will keep you busy on the dance floor with classic R&B oldies like "Heatwave" or "Unchain my Heart". When the event calls for dinner music, STARDUST will keep the music light, soft, and enjoyable for conversation to flow backed by lovely sound. The versatility of this band is only exceeded by their professional manner and affordability! Whether you choose the four piece group, the duo of Robbie Blake & Bruce Miller, or Robbie Blake solo, the music will fit both pocketbook and taste.
Playful, energetic, sincere, professional, accommodating! Wonderful group for dancing or listening! Flexible during performance to allow for inevitable announcements & interruptions. Enjoyed by all attending our event!
Thank you so much for performing at our wedding. We really appreciated how you were able to customize your performance for our unique audience. You showed up on time, were professional, and sounded awesome. We highly recommend you and your band to everyone looking for quality entertainment. Karen Costantino
I had the opportunity to have Robbie Blake at my annual riverside birthday event recently. I really enjoyed Robbie. The song selection was so wide-ranging and the delivery so solid and beautiful, my guests were full of praise of her work. We all really enjoyed the ability to be able to carry on chatting and conversation with friends without being overtaken by too much sound. Because of such a wonderful experience, I am planning to retain Robbie's services again in the future for my next event.
