John played at my daughters wedding this past weekend, and I can't say enough good things about this professional band. The music was excellent, many people commented on the music. I would not hesitate to use their services and or refer them. Consider Raddy and the Cats they can accommodate what you want to hear.

Anyone looking for an ensemble to play pop and jazz standards should look no further. John and his group were terrific and accommodating, and our guests couldn't stop raving. He knew the venue, the songs, and the vibe that our wedding reception was eager to receive.
For peace of mind, keep in touch with John and his folks in the days and weeks leading up to the event, just to ensure everyone is on the same page.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 14, 2012•From Gettysburg, PA
1. I had to call Gigmasters to get them to have the band leader contact me to discuss detaild after numerous attempts as we got closer to the event - AFTER I had given the a deposit.
2. We DID NOT GET the mix of music we requested.
3. The band was contracted to take a single 15 min break during the 3-hour gig...and in the first hour my wife and I were there, they took 2! My wife had to go FIND THE BAND to tell them to go back and play!
4. Their electronic mixing was awful. Guests requested to move.
5. No balance or blend. Horns overblew everything. Very unrehearsed.
6. During those TWO breaks, the leader provided NO RECORDED MUSIC! DEAD SILENCE DURING DINNER!

Banquet•Reviewed on February 27, 2012•From McLean, VA
The band was very professional and the music was perfect for both listening during dinner and later for dancing. They have an impressive repetoire that includes jazz, blues and the wonderful standards everyone loves to hear at a dinner/dance. Both instruments and vocals were high quality. We were very satisfied with our interaction with the band on all levels. They were able to work with us to make sure everything happened as planned during the evening.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on December 12, 2011•From Delaplane, VA
Raddy International (John, Terry and Dan) created a festive atmosphere and had the guests dancing all night until the very end.
They were professional, even with a late start due to direction of the place where the 2 members started their instrumental pieces while waiting for the other member to arrive.
They were very much in the spirit of making all the guests happy. We will definitely call them for the next function. Thank you all for making this event a resounding success.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on November 4, 2011•From Winchester, VA
The Band has talent!!! My husband and I hired Raddy International for our wedding. They were wonderful! There was some confusion during the negotiations of the contract. It probably was due to handling most of the negotiations over the internet, and it was worked out quickly.
The band handled special requests from family very nicely which we appreciated greatly. My guests enjoyed themselves.
I must express my overall gratitude and thankfulness. At last moment a conflict with our date came up forcing us to move the event ahead of schedule. Raddy International was able to change the date with no hassle or additional fees. Thank you so much, the night was beautiful.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 18, 2011•From Silver Spring, MD
Raddy and the Cats were wonderful. They helped make our event a smashing success. People are still calling and talking about the band. Working with them was easy. They made thoughtful recommendations when we asked for their ideas, and were always open and able to meet our requests...even last minute ones. They were able to read the cadence of the party, and played music that served to highlight the moments. We are absolutely going to invite them back to play at our next event.
What else can I say they're a 5 Star act. Thanks Raddy!

Raddy and the Cats were outstanding! They were the highlight of the birthday celebration and made the 'birthday girl' feel like the most important person in the world! Thanks Raddy! We will definitely see you at our next event -- maybe a Mardi Grad party!

Funeral•Reviewed on September 19, 2011•From Rixeyville, VA
These guys were great. Not only did they do a wonderful job, they were all very pleasant and accommodating. Despite the venue being fairly difficult to find they all managed to get there. They went out of their way to make sure that I was satisfied, which I was, greatly. The other people there were also very impressed and asked how I had managed to locate such a good band. They made sure that this very special event had the meaning that was intended (it was a memorial service for my husband, who had always said that he wanted a New Orleans style send off. They made sure that this happened, which meant a great deal to me.)

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 8, 2011•From Annapolis, MD
If I could give more than 5 stars I would! They were excellent! Raddy International was exactly the sound we were looking for for a classy and sophisticated brunch wedding in Annapolis. John was very accomodating through the entire process and delivered above and beyond what was in the contract. He absolutely exceeded our expectations. Our guests also had a great time and a number of them commented to us and to the band that they were the best live band they had seen at a wedding. They were the perfect band for a perfect weekend! I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone or to hire them again for another event. Thanks John! Josh and Kristina

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 17, 2011•From Great Falls, VA
John Rady with whom we contracted never showed, but sent a replacement group. I think you call this bait and switch. The group that performed, however, did very well, played to special requests and allowed, my niece as a guest vocalist to sing a few numbers. So no reflection on the quality, professionalism, etc of the group that actually performed. They were great.

Let me start by saying think you Mr. Fleming, for your kind words. I deeply apologize for
any inconvenience or discomfort that I may have caused you, please note that it wasn't my intent. However,Raddy-Int is a entertainment company that manage three groups and I sent you the group that I new would give you just what you needed. I work with my musicians personally to ensure that my clients are entertained to the fullest. Judging by your ratting you where musically satisfied. You did make the check out to Raddy- Int. It seems you wanted me there personally I am honored. And if you want us again I'll give you a 30% discount with me John Henry Lowery on vocals

Mardi Gras Party•Reviewed on March 8, 2011•From Harrisonburg, VA
Raddy was absolutely wonderful to work with. He was so accomodating to our needs and even accomodated a schedule change at the last minute. Our residents had a wonderful time and enjoyed interacting with him. He even had them up and dancing all throughout the evening! Wonderful talent and a wonderful voice, and so professional. I definitely will work with them again. I highly recommend this group to anyone looking for an authentic Dixieland jazz sound!!!

Wow! Raddy and the Cats just killed it at our wedding. They set the perfect mood for the event, and bent over backwards to accommodate some tricky space issues we had. Can't wait to hire them again for our 10th anniversary!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 10, 2010•From Rockville, MD
Talk about the best of the best, Raddy delivered. Do not look anywhere else if you need a band. Best decision I have ever made. He can take a party and make it an event for a lifetime. I wish I knew better words than Amazing and Spectacular. I planned a Louisana/Mardi Gras party for my wife's 40th birthday. Raddy’s first hour was dinner music and entertained with amazing songs. The second set Raddy and Maria got everyone up singing, dancing and smiling with some classics, some current and a mix of Louisiana soul. The third set, the party rocked and ended with the Saints Go Marching ending the show where we paraded around.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 1, 2010•From Cockeysville, MD
Sincere thanks to Mr.Lowery & his group for their performance at my fathers memorial. We received so many compliments from our guest.The selections they played sounded like exactly like any best of jazz cd. My only regret is that we didn't book them for more time. When they started playing we didn't want them to stop. Mr.lowery thank you so much for making a great day more special. I also thank you for patience & professionalism.
