It was such a pleasure working with Randal! The trio was professional, prompt, talented, and easy to work with! Would highly recommend
Response from Randal V. Wilson - Project Jazz:
Thank you so much! We look forward to the next one.
Randal and his band torn down”the backyard”. It was my Mom’s 94th birthday and they had Miss PeeWee up dancing and smiling from ear to ear.
The band arrived on time and everyone in his company was professional and pleasant.
Thank you Randal
You da best!!!
