Leisha played at the cocktail hour for my wedding at the Desoto in Savannah. She showed up on time and was prepared. She is an AMAZING sax player and wowed the crowd. She was one of the major highlights of my wedding....no regrets....she exceeded my expectations.

Leisha and friends are excellent. Great sound! Showed up on time. Threw it together. Blew out three hours of great music. And left right on time, all cleaned up. What a professional and talented group. We will be asking them back very soon.
