User reviews
- Amazing atmosphere and beautiful music!
- The venue was amazing and the musicians were so talented and fun to listen too. You could tell their passion for music with the way they played and kept tmpo with each other. Definitely coming back in May
- One of the best experiences of my life
- I loved it! Some of my favorite songs plus ones I haven't heard and are now Favorites!
- The musicians were fantastic ! Well trained and on point only complaint is that the theater could have been filled with more candle or theatrics but otherwise a beautiful and memorable experience
