What others say about our band...

"The Bales-Gitlin Band is one of the most talented, well-rounded groups of professional musicians that I have had the pleasure to work with in my 25-year career of managing private clubs … always received numerous compliments from the membership and parties they have played for … a high level of enthusiasm and energy along with personalized attention to details often missed by other bands."
