Verified booking on FixTheMusic"I’ve recently worked with these guys whilst photographing a wedding. If you haven’t booked any entertainment for your wedding yet then you definitely need to book California 80’s Band. Unbelievable!"
Verified booking on FixTheMusic"California 80's performed at my party this weekend and wow he wasn't just amazing, he was phenomenal. This lovely young man should be a star in his own right. All my guests at my private outdoor party were impressed and got up dancing. Every song was performed just like the original artist and the guitar playing impressed us all. He came with the full setup of lights and PA system. He's down for my party next year before he gets snapped up. I cruise lots and he would be amazing on there too. If you have a party then he is your man. The best of the best!!"
