REFERENCES

Gaston was the perfect entertainment for our crowd's 50th Birthday Celebration! Not only did they play a perfect party/dance mix, they played for four hours straight - no break -and the crowd begged for more when they wrapped at midnight. I'd also like to note how accommodating and pleasant Jerry Reid and his band were to work with. Our set up was less than ideal, and they made it work beautifully! I feel like I've made some great new friends, and will certainly book these guys again as the occasion comes up!

Gaston was fantastic! Their music was wonderful! They interacted with the guests really well. I don't think people could have had more fun. I think they made the reception a success. I know my daughter had a blast. I would recommend them to anyone. They are an incredibly talented group of musicians and we appreciated their playing for our reception.

Pigg Wedding Reception

One of the things we liked so much about Gaston was how they interacted with the people at the reception and got so many people out on the dance floor to have fun. At our reception, they lived up to our expectations. Overall, their performance could not have been rated higher. Everybody enjoyed them immensely.
