Great

Great, central location to find the band. In full disclosure, I play in the band that I booked and Have not really used an of the pther services that The Bash offer to date. None the less, commnication was excellent, in particular when our event was posteponed due to a weather-related cancellation. Will certainly recommend The Bash to my colleagues.

Best Elvis EVER

This is the first time I have used Bash. I needed an Elvis for my mother’s Elvis themed 80th birthday party. I picked Steve Elvis Gold and that was the best decision I made about this party! He was so engaging with every age group that we had and it could not have been more professional. He had an excellent voice, great costume and great moves. He was the highlight !

Wonderful Trio

Wonderful Trio! Professional, classy, talented. I appreciate them being patient with my German Shepherd and throwing the ball to him without getting upset. Definitely recommend them.
