Review by Carolyn W.

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 18, 2013From San Rafael, CA

We hired the Jim Butler band for our son's wedding and they exceeded our expectations in every way. Their music was exactly what we wanted and Jim was very professional and easy to deal with. We talked about the music to be played in advance and he delivered. He made sure he was on schedule for the "first dance" and checked in with us to make sure all was well. He appealed to the newly weds and their peers as well as middle aged and older folks. They were a crowd pleaser and we definitely recommend them for your event. And yes...we would hire them again in a heart beat!

Wedding Cocktail HourReviewed on August 3, 2013From Santa Rosa, CA

We hired Jim for our wine country wedding at Annadel Estate Winery. They performed for our cocktail hour into dinner. Jim's group was amazing! Wonderful music, amazing communication. Absolutely flexible and a total joy to work with! Five stars and I highly recommend them!
