We booked the Aldous Collins Band for a big, 275 person gala that was held on a Saturday night. They were awesome!! We had a mixed crowd, from age 21 to 83 and they were a big hit; Aldous was in the crowd, getting people up and dancing, the brass was an impressive touch with great sound and we had guests commenting on how good they were, both on the night and after the fact.

They were also very professional, friendly and low maintenance and worked well with us in what was a challenging venue with poor acoustics. I definitely plan to book them again and highly recommend them to any one else running an event who is looking to book a band that offers something a bit special.

Sam and his trio have been performing at our organization's holiday celebration every year for the past five years. Our congregants (young and old and everyone in between) have been perfectly delighted with their lively and upbeat music. In fact, they (literally) have us dancing in the streets! Though the performance mostly takes place inside, we do at some point wander outside and - yes - dance in the streets. This Klezmer trio is magnificent; the musicians put their heart and soul into their playing, which in turn inspires us. We have found Sam to be responsive, punctual, cheerful and professional, which is why we ask them to return year after year. This band is a winner.

Couldn't be happier with our experience with Of an Oak. From the start, Sam was professional, prompt, and helpful. We asked the band to learn and play a Beatles song for our ceremony. Not only were they happy to do so, they knocked it out of the park. It was perfect. They also played our cocktail hour at the reception and were wonderful. If the style of music is to your taste, don't worry yourself about anything else. You'll get excellent service and excellent music.
