July 1, 2014Birthday Bash
ony and the guys showed up in plenty of time to set up ,they did it quickly and with little fan fair.Some of the guests did not even know the were setting up till they were all done! They started the set on time and enthusiastically,played three sets with short breaks ,they were engaged with the guests and my self it was a wonderful time! I passed the Hat and the boys played me another encore with Tony blowing Blues on the harp~ What a Blast ...Thank you T~ it was amazing!!! I would certainly have him back,give the Band a great referral and have I shared that the Price was a steal!! You need me as a manager Tony ,I am available!! Thank you for making my Birthday!

About
I play harmonica and currently have a standing gig at a restaurant in Modesto. I have been formally trained in harmonica instruction. Some of my instructors have been Gary Primich, Lee Oscar, David Barrett, Magic Dick of J. Geils, Howard Levy, Michael Peloquin, Joe Filisko, Dennis Gruenling. I am the band leader and our volume is low so that people can hear us. We respect our customers by not dressing like a bunch of slobs and will give you your moneys worth.
Additional booking notes
We can supply all our equipment if needed. We are a 4 piece band so we don't take up too much space.
