Lonnie made a fantastic video for our music duo--it's better than I was hoping for and really showcased our sound and style. He has a great eye for shots and is wonderful at video editing. We are VERY HAPPY with Lonnie's work!!!
Response from Lonnie Crayton:
Talented and professional! These folks are a class act and definitely worth watching live. This duo packs the punch of a full band and have a robust sound, which is quite surprising to see live. Plus, both are multi-instrumentalists with a lot of creativity up their sleeves. Hear your favorite songs sung by the two. They have a large catalog of music in many genres. Surely, you'll hear all your favorites. Had the pleasure of working for them briefly and enjoyed my time immensely. Looking forward to seeing them live again in the near future. If you're in the market for hiring a band, look no further than the Midwest Mixtape Duo!
I’ve known Lonnie for 3 years. He has supported me in my comedy career. He is an excellent videographer and very easy to work with
Since 2014 and ongoing, I've had the pleasure of working with Lonnie on several projects (for example, commercials, movies, short films, documentaries, corporate video, music videos, weddings, concerts, parties, and other events). He is multi-talented and goes above and beyond my expectations every time. I look forward to continuing to contract him for work. My favorite film project I've tasked him with is for the movie The Best Day of Your Life, starting in 2020 and wrapping up early 2023. This was a 2-yr weekend film collaboration. This shows his commitment to his craft and ensuring client satisfaction. Finding someone with that kind of go-to is rare!
