June 28, 2025Perfect for Parties - Such Talent & Fun
The Tee-Tones utterly delighted our party goers, a full range of business colleagues, neighbors, friends, and family — every generation ranging from toddlers to 80’- year olds—celebrating a 75th birthday. Everyone kept saying how great they were! Musically they are sensational, and their song list is great, with wonderful oldies and well known hits. Even more than that, The Tee-Times are very personable, friendly, and connected with the party goers. They even generously delivered a wonderful “Happy Birthday“ rendition that everyone loved. Communication and cooperation was excellent, very professional. Decisions on set-timing, equipment, breaks, set-up, etc. were very collaboratively managed with us and our venue.
We couldn’t be more impressed, and give them our highest recommendation.

June 20, 2025Invigorating!
The Tee-Tones had a magical effect on our clients at our adult day health care facility specializing in clients with vision impairment. The clients were moving and dancing and shaking and grooving with the music, it was transforming. For the staff it was incredibly inspiring and rewarding to see the clients so happy and fulfilled. Staff were singing and dancing and enjoyed the music as well. Even the department next to ours was enjoying the music from the other side of the wall! They loved it as much as we did. Thank you so much Laurence, Jonny, Billie, BabyRay, Rome, and Reggie!
