CLIENT
TESTIMONIALS:
The Boomer Band's performance at our
New Year's Eve event was absolutely outstanding.
We were knocked-out with the selections that were played. You knew
exactly what we had in mind based on our brief discussion. The
Boomer Band is a classic 50's act and would bring an atmosphere of
high energy to any event. I would be happy to recommend The Boomer
Band to anyone
who may be looking for a 50's Rock n Roll Band. Thank you and
The Boomer Band again for a truly outstanding performance. --Lynne
