Verified booking on FixTheMusic"We booked the Duo from Capital Folk and were very happy with it! They played Italian classics that all our guests - even though no one was Italian - knew. They played at the end of dinner and during the dessert buffet. It was a very energetic performance and got all our guests on their feet, dancing and starting the party. We would definitely recommend booking this band for a wedding or other event."
