September 7, 2025Sitting Ducks rocked the day!
So happy to have worked with the Sitting Ducks. Mike, Ray and Paul are so talented. Wonderful harmonies and talented guys. Professional, friendly and great sense of humor. The rain came but we were able to save the day with a party change from 4 to 1pm and they were so accommodating. A+
