Dee Dee P Citrus Heights, CA _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Yolo Mambo was so much more than I could have hoped for! All four musicians were extremely talented, professional and together created the most delightful musical performance. We especially enjoyed the beautiful voice of the vocalist singing in the various languages. They set just the right tone for our party! One of the things that is so engaging about Yolo Mambo is that they really seem to enjoy working together and therefore exude a happy energy and enthusiasm. My guests were enthralled with the music and I could not have been more delighted. I highly recommend Yolo Mambo for your next party or event!!!!" _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "The theme of our wedding rehearsal picnic was french. Yolo Mambo made a point of including french songs as well as a wonderful eclectic playlist that was a perfect backdrop for the relaxed picnic atmosphere. They were both professional and personal in their approach to the day's planning. I really appreciate their willingness to work in an outdoor environment with no available electricity! They made the day exquisite!" professionalism? ? ? ? ? ? overall talent? ? ? ? ? ? handling special requests for your event? ? ? ? ? ? how strongly would you recommend Yolo Mambo to a friend? ? ? ? ? ? overall satisfaction with Yolo Mambo? ? ? ? ? ? - Jan K., Napa, CA _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Many thanks again for the wonderful music you brought to our party!
