Dear Steve and Rick - I just want to take a moment to say how special our Friday night dinner was. It almost felt like its own wedding! When I hunted online for a band, I knew exactly what I wanted. When I picked you guys I had faith you were right, but was faced with questions from my (then fiance) "How do you KNOW they will be good?!". Let me just say, you BLEW us away. You were way above what I had in mind and did such an incredible job- it doesn't do it justice, but all I can say is thank you. I received compliments from everyone about how fantastic you guys were...you made our Friday night dinner perfect- we are so appreciative!!! All the best,

Hi Rick - We're currently sitting in warm Punta Cana, Dominican Republic on the first night of our honeymoon and we can't stop talking about how much fun we had on Saturday night! It was truly the night of our lives and you and the band were such an incredibly huge part of it. I can't tell you how many people of all ages kept telling us how great the band was. We had multiple people tell us that it was the most fun they had had in over 30 plus years!!

I knew you all were going to be good, but I'm not sure I could have anticipated just how incredible the music was going to be. We knew it was going to be a good night when people were dancing before dinner even started! It was truly everything we could have ever wanted. The one thing we would really appreciate from you is if you could pass along a complete setlist from the night. We would love to have the full list of everything you guys played all night, just to be able to relive in our minds all that we got to hear.

Thanks again for making our special weekend such an incredible experience for both us and all our guests, it's truly appreciated. We will be 'singing' your praises and highly recommending the band for as long as we possibly can.

All our Best,

We could not have been more pleased with the Coconut Groove Band. They were excellent musicians, and the dance floor was full most of the time! They accommodated us by playing numerous songs off of a "requested song" list we sent them, and everyone loved hearing all those great old songs! Rick and the other guys were especially nice in being willing to learn, and play, "My Wish," for my husband's first dance with the bride. Charlie was especially appreciative to have this special song for this very special time. I would not hesitate to recommend the band to any of my friends, and I hope there will be an opportunity for us to hire them in the future (no more children to get married, but maybe an anniversary party one day...?). Best wishes,
Beverly Johnston

The band was very, very well-liked by our members. Thanks for asking, Ellie. Everything went well, and I even took the band members on a boat ride down the Trent river beforehand. Thanks as always for your help. They were very, very professional and very talented.

They were GREAT to work with and their professionalism was a bonus. You could tell they have a wonderful working relationship with each other and enjoy what they do. I really appreciate how well they adapted to our request for Beatles and Buffett because our crowd really, really enjoyed the music and the change in pace from what we normally host. I will definitely keep them on our list to consider for our 2011 series! Please pass along my thank you to them as well for a great evening!

I can't tell you how much we enjoyed Coconut Groove's performance. They were incredibly friendly, and everyone was really impressed at how they entertained our requests so immediately. We have had a lot of performers play for us, and they were the perfect mix of professionalism and fun for the formal dinner. Feel free to send on my compliments, and I would recommend them for a variety of occasions without hesitation.

Coconut Groove was EXCELLENT! We cannot say enough good things about the guys! They were beyond accommodating with any last minute changes and played the perfect selection of songs for the reception. We will be sure to recommend them, as well as East Coast Entertainment, to anyone looking for live music. We have had a fantastic experience, thanks so much for everything!

The CGB would rank way up there as being one of the better bands that I've ever acquired for one of our events here on Daniel Island! The played such a great mixture of songs and are such talented musicians. You can definitely tell that they have been playing music together for many years.

Joanne and I wanted to thank you and the members of Coconut Groove Band for a fabulous time last Saturday night. You guys were totally awesome! We asked for upbeat, dance music for our birthday party and boy did we get it! You had ages 5 to 88 out on the dance floor all night. My feet were sore for two days afterward. We got rave reviews from all of our guests and particular enthusiasm for Stairway to Heaven. Keep that one in your repertoire. Thanks again and we can't wait for excuse to use you again.

The Wedding Reception went perfectly and Coconut Groove exceeded our expectations. They played a special request for my wife and her dad's first dance, kept it relaxed for the first hour or so and then turned it up (as requested) toward the end of the night. Everyone I know commented on how good they were and how much fun they had at our wedding

CGB were absolutely fantastic! EVERYONE loved them and the dance floor was packed until the end of the night. Plus, how many weddings have you been to where everyone starts chanting “one more song” at the end of the night??
Mindy Yost

Our event was awesome. The Coconut Groove Band was awesome and enjoyed by all! Please know that the students, teachers and chaperons all loved their music and appreciate everything they did to make our night so special. They are playing what the kids want to hear....the great rock classics that everyone relates to and enjoys. From what I could tell, the band was having just as much fun as we were. Chances are, the Coconut Groove band will be back again. Thanks again for everything!

The Coconut Groove Band was amazing! They did a terrific job and had the whole place dancing like crazy. I could not be more happy with the selection.
