Hot Pursuit Band performed really well. They did a great job interacting with the audience and a lot of the people came up to us and told us how much they loved the music. We'll definitely use them for future events.

Club Event•Reviewed on March 10, 2011•From Ridgecrest, CA
Barry and Delene were very accommodating to our group. We had them perform a St Patrick's day theme and they did an excellent job with the choice of songs and music. We live in the Mojave desert so anyone who makes the trip is appreciated and they were no exception. They were pleasant and FUN to be with personally. We would like to have them back next year in a different venue as they are so talented we want to see what else they do. Thanks, babs

Retirement Party•Reviewed on March 5, 2011•From San Diego, CA
The band was excellent. I would hire then again if I had another event. I also received a lot of great comments on how great they were. They stepped up and made the party a huge success. I would say they were one of the best bands I have ever heard.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 4, 2010•From San Diego, CA
Superb! Delene St. Clair, Barry Cahill and Toby Aherns (The HOT PURSUIT Band) provided music for the entire wedding venue - Wedding Ceremony, Reception, Dinner, evening of PARTYING! and MC duties as well! Their versatility was amazing, and all songs and music were performed exceptionally well. Delene's vocals were excellent and guitar, multiple wind such as Flute, Sax, Soprano Sax, and drums provided perfect backup and solos. Delene worked with us to ensure song selection was just right. I appreciated her guidance that assisted us in making sure our daughters wedding was well planned. The Band was a welcomed guest to the event, just not the entertainment. Superb!

The Hot Pursuit Band did a fabulous job. Our St. Patrick event was a great success and the Hot Pursuit Band was a large part of this. They played music that was perfect for our guests. Got folks clapping and dancing. Wish the night would have lasted longer. I will recommend them to my friends and hope to see them perform again in the future. Thanks so much!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on August 12, 2009•From Coronado, CA
Hot Pursuit Band was a great addition to our corporate function on the beach. Last minute I decided to hire a band for entertainment so I googled beach band San Diego and they came up on Gigmasters. They were very accomidating and great to work with especially with everything being last minute. The thing that impressed me the most was Hot Pursuit read the audience and played music that got the guest up and dancing. By the end of the night we had a large group of guest up and dancing having fun. I would strongly recommend them for any type of function. I believe they would be a great addition to any type of event.

What a wonderful Band. We would definitely hire this band again and recommend them to anyone and everyone. I can see why they are the Number 1 Band in San Diego. They work with you on anything you need.
Barry - Wonderful, Cool, Awesome singer and Delene what a "Beautiful" voice.
Thank-You Both for a Great Evening. Everyone enjoyed themselves and loved the band.

Saint Patrick's Day Party•Reviewed on April 10, 2017•From San Diego, CA
We had a St. Patrick's Lunch for a group of older adults and we had great time. They are professional, timely and talented. Hot Pursuit is a 5 in my book. I am going to hire them again.

Thank you so much Kandi! Have a Happy Spring, and Happy Easter!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 17, 2017•From San Diego, CA
Everybody at my birthday party loved the band! They had a huge play list and included very danceable numbers. Delene was sensitive to my description of my preferences and all my guests from the age of four to eighty were on the dance floor. I'll book them for my next event. Thanks!!

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 15, 2017•From Solana Beach, CA
We were so thrilled Hot Pursuit could play at the 50th Wedding Anniversary celebration for both our parents. The guests attending were an older crowd and Delene and Barry knew how to keep the party lively and going! They played all our favorites and even took last minute requests. Their duo was perfect for an afternoon luncheon and sounded much bigger due to their talents of playing multiple instruments. I cannot recommend them enough as they took our celebration from good to GREAT! Thank you Delene and Barry!

Delene was wonderful to work with for our daughters wedding at Crestmore in Riverside. The music was exactly what we wanted for the ceramony. During the cocktail hour the band played music that was perfect for people visiting and enjoying the venue. During the reception Delene did a wonderful job MCing and keeping things moving. The were also great about playing songs that kept people dancing and having fun. Definitely would recommend them for a wedding or any other event. Thanks Hot Pursuit.

Corporate Function•Reviewed on February 4, 2019•From San Diego, CA
Hot Pursuit is great entertainment for your function! Space constraints at our venue meant we could only have a duo instead of the full band we contracted with, but Delene was very flexible and brought the act down to a duo for us and they sounded fantastic. Our event kick off dinner was a huge success because of them, and I would definitely use them again!

Thank you so much, Debbie! So nice working with you!

Barry and Delene were awesome. It was exactly what I wanted. They were very accommodating and easy to work with. They gladly let my musical brother in law sit in for a few numbers and switched it up towards the end to meet the adult kids request. Highly recommend!

Thank you SO much, Jill! It was our pleasure too! And, your guests loved when your husband sang with us at the end! Looks like it was a great birthday celebration and we so happy to be a big part of it! You're the best!

Delene reached out before the event to make sure the dress attire was appropriate, the music selection was what we wanted. This was much appreciated. The band showed up on time, played exactly what was requested and played right up to the booked time. The vocals both male and female were right on. I really could not say enough good things about this group. They are first rate.

Thank you, David! You and your group were awesome! Thanks for having us perform, and thanks for the nice review! Happy!

Delene and Barry were awesome! Everyone raved about how good they sounded and their friendly personalities. I would (will) hire them again and would recommend that if anyone is looking for professionals that can play anything from Irish Folk to Rock and Roll, to not hesitate in contacting them, you'll be glad you did!

Everyone was very excited to have their wonderful music played making it a even more special evening and commemoration for us all. We will definitely consider hiring them again in the future.

Hot Pursuit performed at our Valentines Day Dinner Dance for our Military. Ho Pursuit was accommodating, professional and very talented. As the lead vocalist, Delene was awesome, she was engaging and interacted with our guests through out the evening. Vocals were n point and song selection was in theme. I wouldn't hesitate to hire Hot Pursuit again. Kelley Sitar, Community Recreation Director, Naval Base Coronado

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on January 8, 2021•From Valley Center, CA
Our daughter and her fiance had planned their wedding for August 29, 2020. We had contacted Delene St. Clair (Hot Pursuit Band & DJ) because we had heard their music before, liked their sound and they came highly recommended by a friend of ours. Because of COVID, our plans had to change, but they are playing for us in May as the Bride and Groom reaffirm their vows and have a great reception. The communication is great and I would not hesitate to hire them for any event. They play with professionalism, but have personality as well.
Thank you, Delene!
