Client Comments

“Working with the Alison Sharino Band was a pleasure. They were professional, accommodating, and really got everyone up and dancing. I would suggest them to anyone. ….We had a great night, in large part because of how great you guys were. I cannot tell you how many people came up to me (sweaty from dancing) to tell me how great the band was!!

“Music is a big deal to me, and I wanted so much out of a wedding band–I could not have been happier with your band and how the whole party turned out. The only thing I really cared about at my wedding was for people to have a great time and to dance… and dance… and dance. And all night people kept saying to me how wonderful the band was and how much fun! The dance floor was full all night, which is exactly what I had hoped for. The music selection was great, everyone sang along to every song and it was hard to get away for a moment to get a drink! My grandmother danced all night, and so did my little cousins (the youngest is nine). I really cannot say enough about your band and what a wonderful impact you made on our wedding. The night could not have gone any better and I will wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone who will listen. THANK YOU!”
–Stephanie Vaughn, Fresno, CA Wedding, October 2009

“I loved the music, loved the selection of music and thought the musicians were all excellent and the singers had great voices. I was really sad when we had to end the party. I could have listened to them all night. I would hire them again in a heartbeat. The “newlyweds” selected the band, great choice.”
–Bill Leifer, Father of the Bride, Fresno, CA Wedding, October 2009

“You and your band are awesome! We were very pleased with your music, your professionalism and the entertainment factor—all super. Thank you ever
