Tim and I would like to thank you for everything that you did for our wedding. You were the perfect group. We never expected to find someone who could accommodate us as well as you did; playing for the wedding itself, then switching to jazz during dinner and kicking it up later in the evening for a night of great fun. You read the crowd perfectly and played great music that everyone enjoyed. We have received a huge number of compliments on the wedding and people said it was a great party - thanks primarily to you. If we ever decide to have another get together on this scale you will be getting a call from us! Thanks again for a wonderful evening. Pamela and Tim"
"HOT TOWN SUMMER (CONCERTS) IN THE CITY" Here's a special thanks to Andalin and Alan Bachman and their band, The Desert Wind Players. They really rocked the house with their songs from Santana, the Greatful Dead, Jethro Tull and a few of their own originals on August 4. It was a beautiful Utah evening on the patio of the JCC." - JCC news.
