Wrecking Crew Express was a huge hit at our Senior Prom event. Our residents ages 70+ could not stay in their chairs and wanted to keep dancing. They are talking about it! We're excited to invite them back at our next event. The band was absolutely awesome!

Response from Wrecking Crew Express:
Thank You, it is rare when the Band is moved to tears sometimes! You raised a lot of money for charity and should be proud of a job well done Shaleen. We loved every minute of it! We hope you have us back.

This band was so much fun and wow, the talent was off the chart! Not only did our guests come up to me that evening to say what a great band this was, but now it's the day after and we are still hearing about it! We couldn't have asked for a better evening! Now I want to plan another event so we can have the Band back! Everyone in the band was cordial and a lot of fun! Class act!

We used Wrecking Crew Express for our New Year's Eve dinner and party and they did not disappoint. The entire group and their families where very friendly and the band entertaining. We will definitely look at using them again.

Thank You Judith, we realize these things are fluid situation at best, and at times and things change sometimes, I hope you had a good time at the party we look forward to perhaps playing for you in the future.
The audience was thrilled with the performance. Toe-tapping, hand clapping music was the order of the evening and we had a blast!

We had Wrecking Crew Express perform at our house for a B-Day party on Saturday. They blew us away with how awesome they are as singers and musicians. The three lead singers were fabulous. Gary was so easy to work with and organized everything for us. We had a crowd of about 60 people. Everyone I talked to was blown away at the quality of the music. Strongly recommend!

Thank You Jim, we sure had a fabulous time. We loved the food, what a wonderful crowd to celebrate your Birthday!
The Wrecking Crew stayed in communication with me, showed up on time, helped with room set up, and dazzled my guests with their musical talent. Not only was their music incredible, their sensitivity to the event and kindness to my husband and me while performing will never be forgotten. I couldn't recommend a band more for any event that you want to have a good time and dance with gusto!

Thank you for the kind review. We had a wonderful time. We love it when the guests have fun also! What a fun time, you sure put on a fantastic party. We will also remember the fun times , we love it when we feel we made new friends for life!
Wrecking Crew Express helped celebrate our Mother’s 80th birthday bash. Gary was super helpful prior to our event with suggestions for the best performance possible. They were very open to our song selections and promise to deliver an amazing performance. On the day of the event the band arrived an hour early to set up their equipment and when the time arrived to start jamming, it was pure magic the rest of the night. The band interacted with our guest. Got the entire party dancing and really took care of the birthday girl. All of guest enjoyed the music and it was truly a night that myself and the my mother will never forget. Thank you wrecking Crew!!

Oldies Music, 1960s Era Entertainment
I can not even keep track of how many standing ovations this fantastic, great, professional, awesome, best ever band had. These are just some of the adjectives describing how the audience enjoyed the Wrecking Crew Express and wanted to know when they would be back. The joint was jumping. They had people up and dancing that haven't moved in years. One woman that had cerebral palsy and had never danced (except sitting in a chair) was so moved that she stood up grabbed the chair for support and danced.
I could go on and on.
Wrecking Crew Express WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank You Gloria for the great review, we really enjoyed playing, what a great crowd! We will be back soon! Gary
I heard the Wrecking Crew Express as they opened up at the Whiskey A Go Go for the Strawberry Alarm Clock. The Express has great sound and vocals as they play 60's and 70's music. Great hearing the sounds of music I grew up with; Janis Joplin, Sonny and Cher, Turtles, Aretha Franklin, Beach Boys, Mama and Papas etc. Wonderful night. I'll definitely follow them.

Additional Booking Notes
The main concern is the area and size, which should be adequate for setting up our band. We have a fair amount of equipment and we require a Minimum size of Approx. 15 'x 25' Stage or area to set up.
Additionally, power requirements are always a consideration, as 3 power sources are preferred if possible.
Lighting, Stage, and Sound can be as simple or complex as the requirements dictate. The amount of set up of the performance is dictated by the size of the crowd and the budget.
We supply some lighting effects at no charge.
Keep in mind we always want to see your event be a success so if you have a specific budget reach out to us. We are a 6-person band.
