Praise for Area 51

Thank you for making a hot day even hotter. Area 51 sure can set a stage afire!

...hardly anyone could stay off their dancing feet when your band played. Your sound is “clean and mean,” powerful and energetic. Anyone who likes funk, R&B, dancing, and watching a brilliant, polished performance will love you..

Pridefest Entertainment Coordinator
 

I was once told that a spectacular wedding depends on two elements. The first being food and dining while the second being music and entertainment. Because of this I knew that I had to have the very best in the business and when I saw you perform for the first time, I knew right then that Area 51 was the best and only choice for me. And you were!

This year’s event was made even more successful by the presence of your group. I want to particularly thank you for your professional handling of the logistics of playing in a crowded space with a particularly exuberant crowd.

I just wanted to tell you what a rockin' night we had! You were awesome. Everyone thought you guys rocked and you in fact made the party! I thank you again...
