LIFE OF THE PARTY REVIEWS

  • Life Of The Party was the easiest band to work with. Very organized. Your guy on the ground was very helpful and very professional. I’ve been in the special events business for 3 decades. Life Of The Party by far had the best vocals and harmonies I’ve heard in a very long time. The musicians sounded like the original recording, but the vocals were over the top. We were lucky to have one of the best sound engineers I’ve heard. Even your trombone player who came out in the house during soundcheck agreed that that guy had it ‘tuned in’. His name is Danny, and he works for Hear-See Productions out of NOLA. It was the ‘perfect storm’. I’m looking forward to working with your team again. Thanks again!
