"This was absolutely the hands down BEST music performers that Summit has had. The growing crowd when these guys were playing tells the story! What a group of professionals. Every song a winner. And the lead guitar was phenomenal - not to leave out the drummer and bass player as great too. PLEASE have them back again."

"We really are so very happy to have you perform for us. You bring such incredible life to our streets!"
