I have over 100 positive reviews from clients across several vendor platforms from the past year alone for both my DJ/MC as DJ L Rock the Party or Live Music Services with the Modern Highway Band!

Christina was professional, organized, has a great sense for the crowd, great audio equipment, and great dj voice. She plays the jammmms! Even though we had a range of wedding guests, everybody walked away buzzing with joy!

Christina and Gene were professional and excellent! They blew our guests away at cocktail hour with their live performances—the father of the groom even complimented Christina on her voice! They happily took requests but always kept in mind and...

Christina was such a pleasure to have at our wedding. From start to finish she was professional, communicative and fun! She sent me a Google form to fill out several months before our wedding and she was always available to answer any questions...

I had. About 10 days before the wedding, we scheduled a call to go over everything and she made me feel so confident that everything would go off without a hitch. And it did! She was full of energy and played music that fit the vibe of our guests. I would recommend her to anyone!

party going! It was so fun having a versatile wedding musician duo who could switch from a nice mellow acoustic set (with songs to appeal to all generations), into a fun party DJ set to wrap the night up right! Highlight of the event!

Absolutely amazing!!! We had them for our wedding and everyone raved about how great they were. They performed live music for our ceremony and part of our reception. They also DJed our reception and we absolutely loved them. Christina was super...

helpful in helping us create a great timeline for all the different events we wanted during our reception. She even took the time to research a few different wedding traditions that she wasn't all that familiar with. Christina was truly the backbone of our wedding and we couldn't have survived the day without her. Needless to say Christina is an excellent communicator, easy-going, flexible and extremely professional. We sent a list of new songs that would be considered challenging considering their genre, and they were able to pull them off perfectly..... They are worth every penny, and I can't wait to have them perform at any future events!!! Psssss....... If your thinking about hiring them, do it!!! They are indeed masters of their craft

We decided to marry virtually via court. It was tugging on our hearts to have a small God centered ceremony. With only a weeks notice we found this site and posted out need for a singer to provide music for our ceremony. We recieved many respon...

ses however Christina and Gene really stuck out. From the 1st contact they took the time to thank us, congratulate us and provide us with all the information needed. Even, when we had questions after our initial contact they answered every one professionally and gave us peace and assurance. There was nervousness over booking a performer without meeting them in person but Christina sent over videos of performances and their voices blew us away. The song requested was not on their playlist but they took the short time given to learn it. I walked down the isle to the rest of our lives to the most beautiful voices serenading us. After the ceremony they stayed to play for our guests. We can not count how many people asked where we found them and how amazing they sound. On top of their talent they are genuinely nice people who you just want to stay and join the party. I love them!!! I can not express how happy I am to have hired them. Thank You Christina and Gene for being attentive, flexible, inprovising, professional and for helping us make our wedding so memorable. We love and appreciate you!!! Hire them they are high quality pure talent!!! Thank You, Casey and Veronica
