Gary Jenkins and the "Thundering Hearts" will give you a most delightful and entertaining performance. The band is composed of highly accomplished musicians who provide a wide repertoire of the great songs that you are familiar with. Additionally, Gary is a genius at connecting and interacting with the audience. He is a master at engaging the audience and creating a fun night for attendees. I have used Gary and his band on seven different occasions and he has never let me down. If you give him a try, you will be happy you did.

We used Gary Jenkins as our band for our wedding reception. When we hired Gary we got much more than just an amazing band we also got a great emcee who kept the flow of the reception moving. Gary was very easy to work with, and even brought in specific band members to fit the music we selected. The dance floor was full the entire evening. To this day people talk about two things from our wedding reception, the great food and the amazing band!

Gary is the consummate professional. He is attentive to the needs of his audience and delivers a program that is top knotch. I have known Gary now for nearly 20 years and have seen him outside of our organization do spectacular events for others over the years. I definitely would hire him in a heartbeat!

Of all the things to worry about on Wedding day... music wasn't one of them for me. Gary is an unbelievable talent and professional. Thanks Gary... you're a one of a kind, even in a place like Music City!

We have hired Gary Jenkins and Thundering Hearts for our daughter's sweet 16 party and we recommended him to a close family friend for their daughter's wedding. Gary adapted to each situation perfectly and he and the band were outstanding in every way before, during, and after the event. Totally professional. Fun. Great music. Engaging. I own an entertainment venue and we have hired Gary as an emcee for charity fundraisers and twice he has opened as a comedian for TV's Jon Reep. If you can get Gary and or Gary and his band to do your event, you will not be disappointed!

Gary provided the entertainment for a large fundraiser I was involved with at Loews Vanderbilt Hotel in Nashville. He was extremely professional and responsive throughout the entire process. He is truly an amazing entertainer in all regards and he brings lots of energy and wit. The attendees loved him and his band and people stayed to dance until the event ended. He made the event so much better than it would have been otherwise.

I highly recommend Gary - you will not be disappointed!

Gary provided the Entertainment for our 700+ person NYE Event twice with the last time being 2013. This is our year end event for our best customers. The music sound was excellent. He performed specialty songs and acts that were so entertaining that bring back memories to this day. My current and past positions are VP Marketing Hollywood Casino Tunica and VP Casino Marketing Golden Nugget Lake Charles
