Thank you Roman! Shooters Steakhouse was a great choice for a venue and we had a great time - take care!
We have had Vindaloo a couple of times at our clubhouse and are getting ready to book them again. Power trio performing great classic rock covers. Perfect mix of 70s 80s and 90s. 🤘🙋👍

Response from Vindaloo Band:
Thank you Mike! We are looking forward to playing for your fun crowd again soon!
We absolutely loved having the band play at the depot last summer! They were a part of our Make Music Day celebration outside and their sound really provided us with a fresh new energy that was much needed in our lineup of music! Very friendly group, very easy to work with, always a pleasure to work with them when they’re in town!
