November 1, 2025So Good!! Smooth Ash Grove threw down with the congas for my party. It was exactly what I envisioned. Punctual, clearly communicated and overall it was wonderful working with her. Her drum playing elevated the DJ music. Her ability to work with the DJ, whom she met that evening, was so great that everyone thought they were a duo. Strongly recommend her for your next event.
