Wedding•Reviewed on May 30, 2017•From Richmond, VA
I simply cannot say enough about Howard and the Mid-Life Crisis Band! I booked them for my wedding in Richmond and I have to say they were so accommodating and wonderful to work with from start to finish. They were so easy to book and handled everything with minimal need from us. They are very talented, friendly, and were just what we needed for our event- zero stress! Their price was extremely reasonable and made having live music possible for us. They accommodated a special song request and played a great variety of music. Please do not hesitate booking this band!

The difference between hiring a acoustic guitarist and an professional acoustic guitarist could never be more obvious after our event. Howard plus 1 entertained at our private house party. He understood the crowd, the genre of music and understood the sound to be "background" during part of the evening and then "the entertainment" as the party progressed. The party went from amazing to spectacular. An event that all will remember. 10 stars out of 5!
Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 7, 2015•From Keswick, VA
We used Howard for a company holiday part this year. He was wonderful and everyone at our party thoroughly enjoyed themselves! The music was great, and the combination of different types of music was excellent. Howard was flexible with our timeframe, and even ended up staying an extra hour because everyone was having so much fun. He was always quick to respond to emails and calls, and was very helpful with all questions that I had before the event. We would definitely recommend, and will plan on using Howard again in the future!

Howard Barnett and the mid Life Crisis Band were a pleasure to work with! We heard nothing but rave reviews from our guests all weekend. They played a great variety of music and were a real crowd pleaser. Howard and his bandmates were accommodating, professional, personable, and very affordably priced for the quality performance they provided. We can't wait to have them back again!

Howard and TC were wonderful! They arrived on time, played an excellent selection of songs, and really set a laid-back, relaxed mood to the party. All of our guests commented on how much they loved them. I hope we have another occasion to hire them again soon.

Howard Barnett and the band did a great job. The music they chose fit the occasion and was appealing to people at the party. Having a good band makes all the difference in an event, and these folks are good.
I'd recommend Howard Barnett and Mid Life Crisis.
Private Party•Reviewed on August 18, 2010•From Stanardsville, VA
our housewarming party was a total success. Mid Life Crisis provided
a variety of music, along with special requests and even allowed some
of our guests to play with them. Overall comments from our guests were,
"Where did you find this band?" "What great music", "When can we come
back to hear them again?", "Thanks for letting me play my sax."
"Thanks for giving me the opportunity to play with you."....If we ever
throw another party, they will be the band for us.

Howard was great! He played background and then more sing along type music as the party progressed. He even learned an irish song that wasn't really in his repertoire, which was a great surprise for my husband's surprise party. I highly recommend him.
