Testimonials

You and Big Zephyr were fabulous.    From dressing up,  to the music, to the “second line” handkerchief dance, it was a fabulous time.  I can’t thank you enough. I got so many compliments on your performance.

Perfect.  thank you so much for a wonderful dance on Halloween.  The residents are still talking about Big Zephyr.

Pam Nothnagel, Activities Director, Val Vista Village, 11 5 15

I attended an event this past weekend and had the great pleasure of listening to The Big Zephyr for the first time.  They were awesome and I can’t wait for the next opportunity to see them perform again.  My friends all raved about them as well.

Thanks to William Babin and The Big Zephyr for rocking the house at the Orange Tree Golf Resort.  What an amazing show they did for my clients.  The most talked about topics were their lead singer, Jaime Lee, who was just amazing, and the “tribute medley” of spy music which was fabulous.  Thanks for another job well done.

Dawn Fasano, Event Planner, April 27, 2015

 I just want to say THANK YOU, on behalf of the Entertainment Solutions team and myself.  We can’t begin to tell you how much we appreciate you and the rest of your band for the great performance on at the P.F Chang’s Rock ‘n’ Roll Arizona Full & Half Marathon. 

Your band put the Rock ‘n’ Roll into the marathon and helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars for local and national charities.  Finally, the local economy was boosted by the 35,000+ runners and thousands of spectators that descended upon Phoenix, Scottsdale, Tempe, and from around the nation to participate in this event. 

It was a pleasure to work with you. Keep on rocking as great as you do!

Angelica Perez, Entertainment Solutions (January 18, 2015)

Hi, Bill. I was manager on duty at Saturday’s event and saw the band!  Your group was great and has a vast repertoire. Thanks–

Stacey Bailey, Program Coordinator ASU Kerr Cultural Center, a division of ASU Gammage  (January 10, 2015)

What a surprise! It was gourmet brownies that came in the mail. Very special:)    And there was a good looking picture too of a cool playing band.  Yes, the guests enjoyed the music and especially Gracie, my grand daughter. She couldn’t keep from dancing to it:)   Thank you for the thoughtful present. And good luck in your musical endeavors.   Maybe I will see your band advertised playing somewhere.

Melodie’s “client feedback” given to Gigmasters:

My guests loved the band! We got to pick the music we wanted and the special events we added were handled expertly. Bill Babin, the band director, was co-operative and easy to communicate with. A great looking, great sounding, friendly band.

Melodie Koe, January 10, 2015, private party

Just a short note to say thanks for your great music on Saturday.  We appreciate all of your efforts and please pass this on to the rest of the Band members.Thanks again,

Even when our clients do not hire us for a specific event, they are motivated to write a review because of the service they receive:

Thank you for submitting a quote for my event. However, I am not interested because I found another option that better suits our group’s needs. Thank you for the communication and professionalism during my search process. Best of luck!”

Patricia Palmer,  August 11, 2014

Your performance at the event sounded much better than the demos I heard of the band. Your band was excellent and very easy to work with.  From your first song, you had people dancing in front of the stage. Your band was all about keeping the crowd’s attention throughout the evening. Thank you for such an outstanding performance.

Joe Swicklik, City of Phoenix, July 4, 2014

I apologize for the tardiness of this thank you email.  I did not express my gratitude for your patience and professionalism in working with my client ASAP.  The Sunset Celebration was a hit and the client received rave reviews.  Thanks to you this event was a huge success.  I look forward to working with you again!

Michele Shannon, Meeting & Event Consultant, March 12, 2014

 You guys really rocked at The Resort last Friday. I’m glad there was a good turnout. Dancers always dance better when there is a lot of energy and a  solid beat. We really liked your female singer. She sounded just like  Linda Ronstadt when she sang Blue Bayou and When Will I Be Loved. She did a great Michelle Branch imitation on my favorite cha cha, Game of Love. Your band is the only one that plays that song.

Wild Bill, guest,  January 28, 2014

Good to hear from you – people are still talking about what an amazing band you guys are! I hope you and yours are well.  FYI – Madeleine and Dan just had a baby boy – Ezra David! – in Washington DC – they are doing beautifully and thank you again for providing such great music for their magical wedding. 

Here is the link to the Creekside Inn – Mark and Tammy were wonderful to work with and I would highly recommend this place to anyone. 

Take care and enjoy the rest of your summer!  And please tell this new bride with whom you are working how pleased we were with TBZ!

Jane     9 10 13 (four years after we did her daughter’s wedding in 2009)

Very professional and represented our company well.

Doug Porter, 7 14 13,  Aspecialevent.com

Bill and the gang were right on top of everything. we asked them to get outside their norm and play straight through without a break and they found a way to accommodate us. Their addition of  DJ Scott Faver to the team helped us go on late into the evening and everyone commented on how much fun they had. The band kept the crowd on the dance floor and we had much more participation than any of our past events in memory. I would happily recommend them!

Bruce Clark, Miracle Ear Corporation, 6 21 13

What a wonderful time…Our guests really enjoyed the Band and all the fun and excitement they created for us at the event. We would invite them back in a minute!!!!!!

Carolyn Johnson, corporate event, April 19, 2013

Very talented group. All guests enjoyed the variety of classic rock and country. Highly Recommend!

Kristen & Tom Ritchie, private party,  April 25, 2013

WOW!! Amazing band, absolutely fantastic!! Bill such a pleasure to work with -so easy and acommodating –played out in the 111 Phoenix night for 4 hours, but never once complained, just kept the party going. Everyone enjoyed and complimented on their talent. Fit the night perfect, would definitely recommend and hire again. Thank you Big Zephyr for a fabulous night out under the stars!!

Gerald and Pat Johnson, corporate event,  June 26, 2012

Can’t believe how fast it flew by. Thank you for everything! Andy and I enjoyed working with you and are so happy to be your friend. Everyone is talking about how wonderful you all were. Andy, my dad, and I are trying to get you on Camelback Inn’s preferred vendor list as quickly as possible. Richard Rodney, the general manager, was very impressed by you. We would recommend you to anyone looking for a band for their upcoming wedding or party.  Hugs,

Darcy and Andrew Marwick, wedding,   5 5 12

Lots of positive comments on the Christmas Dance and they are anxious for you to return. Thanks

Donna Shaff, 55+ resort dance,   1 2 2012

Just wanted to get back to you to let you know the entire family and friend crowd thoroughly enjoyed the musical entertainment provided by The BIG Zephyr during the 60th anniversary party for our parents on August 20th.  Thank you for working with us ahead of time to coordinate the awesome musical numbers that entertained our whole crowd – from the teenage grandkids to the senior party guests!
Each BIG Zephyr band member is very talented!  On top of the terrific music, the hosts and hostesses especially noticed how courteous each band member was both on and off the stage.  I will of course recommend The BIG Zephyr to other friends who are looking for a great band to make their upcoming party very fun and memorable.  Thank you so much,

Gretchen Anderson, family reunion,      8 20 11

Bill and the guys from the Big Zephy Band were amazing. They performed Country music for my Western Event and I will be using them again for our Independence Event as a rock band. Multi-talented and professional…and they set up early which is always a plus in my book!

Lauren Stephan, community festival, 3 26 11

I have gotten nothing but positive response to your group’s performance on Thursday.  In addition to the December date that we talked about, I would like to book you for the end of season pool party next season.  We have an afternoon party with goofy games, etc., then a casual dinner and dancing around the pool.  Last season’s attendance was 300+.

Donna Shaff, Activities Director, Gold Canyon RV & Golf Resort, 2 10 11

The band manager responded promptly once my request for quote was distributed via GigMasters. I appreciated a direct call in addition to email about pricing and availability, as it allowed me the opportunity to talk through our particular set-up requirements and audience. The band was a pleasure to work with, I would absolutely hire them again for another event. Enjoyed doing business with them, strongly recommended.

Karen Oldenkamp,  corporate event, 11 14 10

The Big Zephyr was ABSOLUTELY wonderful!  Talented, flexible, fun and we will have them back again! I can’t say enough good things about Bill and the crew. They were great and went above and beyond to make our event great!

Theresa Dootson, charity event,  11 6 10

The band was great, we all enjoyed the music and the vocals. Yes,  you can use me as a reference.  I was very pleased and received a number of compliments from my guests on how good your band played.

Joanne Muscarello, private party, 10 30 10

Thank you and your group for coming out and performing such a great show for everyone.  It was a great night for great music.   The Big Zephyr really knows how to perform to crowd of all ages! Thank you for a
great performance at the 2010 Fall Rhythm Fest.  Our residents and guests really enjoyed the variety of music played throughout the night.  The band was a pleasure to work with from start to finish.  Thanks again for helping to make the FALL RHYTHMFEST a huge success!
