They came to Thrive Senior Living in Montvale and were amazing! Not only are they the NICEST people to work with, but they engaged with the audience, brought shakers for them, let one of our employees sing, stayed later than what they were scheduled for, etc. I HIGHLY recommend them for any entertainment you are looking to do!

We all had so much fun having the Annie Mash Duo play at our party! This band is amazing! They are very talented and clearly have a genuine passion for music. They have great energy and an immense playlist. Everyone was singing and dancing all night!! They were very easy to work with and very good at reading the crowd. This duo is truly exceptional and I highly recommend them!

Michele and Adam, thank you so much for your very kind words! We had the best time performing for all of you. You and your friends were so welcoming and appreciative of us and what we do. It was truly our pleasure!! Hope to see you again soon !
Annie Mash performed at my family reunion party this past weekend. They are communicative (they respond quickly to every message I sent), timely, have an awesome set up and look (great stage presence), and they know what they're doing. They sang and played guitar/other instruments beautifully, can perform a wide-range of music to fit your taste. During my outdoor party it started to rain and Annie Mash seamlessly transitioned their set-up inside and the party continued on as if nothing changed. They're awesome and I highly recommend.

Annie and Dylan performed at my husband's birthday party in our backyard and it was a total success!
They had a great song selection, are amazing musicians and really fun people to be around.
Started mellow while people were eating and by the end of the night everyone was dancing and singing with them.
Highly recommend!!!

Annie and her partner performed at my husband's 60th birthday party, and she was fantastic! I had initially worried about drums being too loud, but the volume was perfect. Light enough for the cocktail party segment of the event and then rocking it out for the final hour (but still not TOO loud - totally on point.) She was able to gauge the room, see how people were reacting to the music, and adjust the absolute right amount of tempo/volume/upbeat style. In addition to her talent, her professionalism in dealing with party planning and logistics was amazing. I didn't have to worry about a single thing. Everyone who attended the party raved about the performance. I'm very happy we hired her and highly recommend her. I would absolutely hire her again.

They were great. Everyone loved them. We have this party every year but this was a special birthday year. Having Anne Mash trio play made an exceptionally fun party. I can’t fully express how good they are. We’re going to see them at one of their bar gigs very soon.

Hi Annmarie!!! We always enjoy performing for Dwight Englewood High School. The campus is amazing and we are always treated like royalty. Thank you for having The Annie Mash Duo back year after year and thank you as well for your great review!!! I am also loving seeing you and your husband at our other shows in your area as of late. Always a pleasure!!!
Had Annie Mash do a private party for us at a vacation house. They absolutely killed it. The number of classic rock songs they know, and perform well is endless. Fleetwood Mac, Eagles, Allman Bros, Beatles, etc. They did Kashmir from Led Zep and it was nothing short of masterful!!!

Hi Bob!! Thank you so much for having us back again this year. The weather wasn't cooperating this year but it didn't stop us. We really loved the intimate setting in the living room and the acoustics were beyond amazing!! We couldn't stop talking about how great the party was the entire way home from Lake George. And it's a long ride back....hahahah... See you all soon and thank you for the review!!
WOW!!!!! I have been following Annie and Chris for years. They performed at my daughters wedding. They listen to what you want and can really play to the crowd. A year later and my guests are still talking about how great they were.

Thank you so much Tom! The rain certainly didn't "dampen" anyone's spirits. It was our pleasure to perform for your daughter and son-in-law's cocktail hour. Fabulous!!! Thank you for the great review!
I have been following the Annie Mash Duo/Trio for several years and they are the best cover band around! They play a variety of songs and have great energy!
I hired them to play at my company holiday party 3 years in a row now and EVERYONE loves them!
Annie, Chris, and Mike are all great people and awesome musicians! Hire them! I promise, you will not be disappointed!

Thank you so much Trish!! It's always a pleasure to see you!!!
She put together a great quartet for our daughters wedding and played everything they requested superbly and with enthusiasm
We would highly recommend her and her large roster of pros for any event you need her for
We saw her in a Woodstock cover band that did the entire Woodstock catalogue. We saw her in a Carole King. Karen Carpenter ( she was Karen) tribute. You cannot go wrong with this talented musician
Did I mention? Easy to work with

Don!!! Thank you so much!! And a great wedding it was!!
My husband and I have seen Annie Mash/duo/trio many times, here in NJ wherever they are, as well as in Lake George. We love them so much that we surprised our son and his wife for their outdoor wedding during Covid. My son had seen Annie Mash many times and cried such happy tears when they arrived at the wedding. They play a variety of songs and have such an addicting energy that you can’t help but dance and sing along with them! They have an extensive playlist but were willing to learn any new songs that I thought my son would like and did an amazing job overall. Annie Mash is professional, yet friendly and flexible and her prices are fair for the wonderful entertainment that they provide. At first thought you may think how great can a duo/trio be compared to a big band, but trust me, you will be amazed at the talent and the sounds that come out of the duo/trio. I highly recommend them for any event and I assure you-you will not be disappointed!! Annie Mash rocks!!!

Wow thank you so much for this incredible review. I cried when I saw your son crying!!! What a great wedding it was. Thank you Nancy!!!
My wife and were very familiar with both the Annie Mash Duo and Trio when we hired the Trio for our wedding. They have an extensive playlist and even learned a couple of special request songs for our event. Months and even years later, several of our guests were still talking about how great the band was and what a good time they had. Annie, Chris, and Mike are all wonderful people and awesome musicians. Hire them! You won't be disappointed.

What to Expect
I am a career, full-time musician and have performed in cover and original bands up and down the east coast playing bars, backyards, corporate parties, outdoor festivals, theaters and so on doing about 200 shows a year. My most treasured performance was having the honor of playing drums for Davy Jones of The Monkees.
I can be the star of your event or I can be background music. I am very flexible, organized and professional and will make your event run as smoothly as possible.
I can perform as a duo/trio with my guitar and/or bass player of 15 years or solo with acoustic guitar tracks. I can also offer a larger band including keyboards or whatever type of instrumentation you'd like to add. I have a large pool of musicians I currently perform with.
My specialty is 60s & 70s classic rock but can offer other genres including 80s, 90s and current music depending on your needs.
Expect an exceptional performance and some wonderful memories!!!
