Aurora Bleu was incredible! Super professional, they came early to set up, and when it started raining really hard, they just moved all their stuff inside and finished their set in the living room without batting an eye. It was so fun!! They were super talented, especially Aurora, the lead singer—she has some pipes!! I loved how they covered and rearranged all sorts of different songs to make them swing, even pop songs like “Call me Maybe” was given a retro makeover! So good! I can’t recommend them enough, they’d be perfect for any event. They really made my birthday party feel super special and awesome!!
Response from Aurora Bleu:
Julie, thank you so much for selecting us to be part of your Birthday Celebration and making us feel super welcome. It was truly our pleasure to be part of your event.
My friend and I saw this band at Artes De La Rosa and they were amazing! This woman has a beautiful voice and I loved the passion she puts into her songs! My friend and I enjoyed the concert immensely and we will look for more of their events to attend in the future
Aurora Blue was fantastic at our Grand Opening for Rapid Recovery Center in Fort Worth. We had so many compliments from our guest on the music. The band and her were friendly and took the time to look at our venue and set up prior to the event. Thank you for making our night special!!
Aurora Bleu is absolutely wonderful. The band is amazing, Stephanie has a beautiful voice and they are such a pleasure to work with. I hired them for our largest fundraising gala and was thoroughly impressed by their performance. The retro tunes were really fun and gave our audience something different to enjoy then just the same old party band cover songs. You will not regret hiring them. This band will surprise and delight!
I got to hear this band on November 5th, 2016 in the Stockyards in Fort Worth, Texas. I was there on vacation and walking through the Stockyards I heard someone singing "At Last" I was blown away! I only got to hear her sing one other song "Something's got a hold on me" , also an Etta James song. I was able to record a video and uploaded it to youtube, under sumkid01. We had to watch the steer at 4 PM, so we couldn't stay. I came back afterwards but they were packing up. I've been telling everyone I know about the amazing singer I came across on my Texas trip. I would recommend this band to anyone and everyone!
We booked Aurora Bleu for our Corporate Event in Irving, TX and they did an amazing job! They performed with so much passion and soul. Aurora has a beautiful mesmerizing voice :) They had the crowd clapping and enjoying every minute. We will for sure be using Aurora Bleu for future events!
A perfect group for our event! I would recommend AURORA BLEU to anyone hosting an event. Not only do they have a great sound and appearance. They have great personality, their warmth for what they do shows on their professionalism!! GRADE A+

Aurora Bleu truly made our reception memorable! Stephanie's voice is breathtaking and the band members never miss a beat! They kept everyone on the dance floor all night! They kept in touch from the beginning to end, was always available for questions, and fluidly worked around our schedule when we walked in later than anticipated. They are truly the ideal band for any event and exceed expectations in every way! Thank you Aurora Bleu for making our day so memorable!
Aurora Bleu played at my daughter's wedding and the music was fabulous. The band members were so easy to work with and accommodating. All of our guest could not stop talking about how much they enjoyed this band. Thanks again Aurora Bleu for giving us a wonderful time.
We hired Aurora Bleu to play at our wedding and they did a fantasic job!! We got to pick some songs to be played for our first dance, the money dance and parents dance and they even let us pick some songs to be worked into the general play list. They were super easy to work with and all our of guests loved the music- it was great bc a lot of the songs were easily recognized by most guests and because the engergy was really good. Stephanie also MC'ed the event- introduced us when we came in, directed ppl. when it was time to cut the cake and do the garter, etc. She did a really good job of keep everything moving. I cannot recomenned this band highly enough!!!! The band was amazing and Stephanie's voice is powerful and beautiful. We can't wait to see them again and for ANYTHIND else to come up that would require us to hire them again. : )
