Villanova Conference Center- July 31, 2013

Kurt,

Thanks again for another outstanding event at the Villanova Conference Center on July 31, 2013. It’s hard to imagine this event without Back2Life! I looked it up and the first time we hired you was in 2008, so this marked our sixth year together! Thanks again for being so easy to work with and for running the sound during graduation as well.

Sincerely,

Kathy

The Oaks Waterfront Inn: Conklin-Sherwin Wedding – June 22, 2013

Wow! You just totally rocked our son’s wedding at The Oaks in Royal Oak, MD on June 22nd. As mother of the groom, I rarely left the dance floor, and if I did, I couldn’t wait to get back. Your individual talent, your combined talent, all brought the house down. We were only a small group of 100, but it felt like 200 were up dancing. I cannot stop thanking you for your drive from Philadelphia and New York to St. Michaels MD, your time setting up, tearing down, and leaving me wishing the night would just go “on and on and on”, as you closed us out with Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin”. Your nonstop 4 hours of performing, playing, singing, dancing – incredible. I love coming to your website now to watch your posted videos. I regret not stopping and just watching each one of you individually. Your video clips now give me that opportunity. Dancing was just too much fun that night! I hope to experience you again. We first danced the night away to you at Ray Terza’s wedding in Philadelphia about 2 years ago. And when Ryan got engaged, there was no doubt that we wanted to ask you to lead our wedding reception. Thank you for your talent, your time, and your performance for us on June 22nd.

With respect and love for who you all are,

Marcia Sherwin

Loch Nairn Gold Club: Sewatsky-Frederick Wedding – May 17, 2013

We just wanted to let the BVTLive! organization know what a “beyond our dreams” fantastic wedding party we had on Friday night, the 17th. Brian got things started with the ceremony, and simply blew us all away with his presence, talent and voice. His pre- ceremony music was just awesome, and he took it down with the processional - Nirvana (Come as you are), and not a dry eye closing with “I’m Yours”. Terrific instrument talent and vocals.
Back2Life with Kurt and Marcy and entire band was just off the charts- they went beyond all of our expectations – not a person in their seats ; simply had everyone dancing until the very last note!
Compliments were heard throughout the entire evening from all of our guests, as well as the entire staff at LochNairn.
Renee – since our initial booking, your personal professionalism in the office along the way was just great as well.
Thanks to a lovely team - all of you for everything you do – so well –.

Sincerely,
From the Sewatsky and Frederick families

Chester Valley Golf Club: Marotta-Bodalski Wedding – May 18, 2013

We would like to thank all of you for the wonderful performance they gave at our daughter and new son-in-law’s wedding this past Saturday at Chester Valley Gold Club. Back2Life sounded excellent and the entire ballroom was up and dancing the entire time. Their high energy and excellent playing entertained us all evening. There was never any point where the dance floor was cleared and their performance during cocktail hour and dinner was equally as wonderful. All of our guests raved about the band all night, and I’m still hearing glowing reports from friends about them. We would be happy to recommend them to anyone who might be interested and we know that they will provide grate entertainment for many weddings and affairs to come.

We couldn’t have been happier with how they helped make our wedding reception such a wonderful evening.

Thank you again,

Cindy and Joe Bodalski

Cork Factory Hotel: Beard-Pan Wedding – November 9th, 2012

Dear Kurt and the Back2Life Band,

We just wanted to express our sincerest gratitude for being a part of our special day. The music was fantastic and the selection was nothing short of those iconic moments we once had in our youth. We think the tempo, attention to detail and the overall experience was just perfect. We really appreciated making sure the crowd was in the moment and varying the music choice to match the mood within the room. This truly showed true testament to the band's professionalism and experience. I have to say that Marcie and all those who sang, including you, were fantastic. Mark's guitar solo and the saxophone solo were memorable, to say the least. Again, we think that although we had magic on our wedding day, the fantasia that you brought to the Cork Factory truly enlivened the moment for us.

We can not thank you enough and would love to share moments from our magical day. If you do not mind, would you kindly share with us your business address so that we can send photos as they come on.

We look forward to hopefully seeing you at future venues and wish you nothing but our heart-felt thanks and best wishes!

Many thanks and sincerest regards,

The Pans

Back2Life brought amazing energy to our 7th annual gala, The Lemon Ball. Kurt and his band are a talented bunch who know how to get the crowd dancing and keep them on the dance floor all night! Our dance floor was double the size of years past but, they kept it packed for the entire party. Wokring with Brandywine Valley Talent is pure pleasure. Thank you to all!

Hi Kurt,

My family and I wanted to let you know how much we LOVED your performance last night! You, Marci, and the rest of the band were AMAZING. It was the perfect night! My mom said that was the best hora she ever heard! My dad was dazzled by the way you performed Dance Across the USA. It was exactly what he wanted! I can't tell you how many of our guests were just so impressed with all of you. Throughout the entire night everyone kept remarking how wonderful you are. Thank you again for making last night so incredibly beautiful and memorable. Please pass on our gratitude to Marci and the rest of the band. We hope there is a time when we can hear the band real soon!!!!

Best Wishes,

Ballroom at the Ben: Finkelstein-Kleinman, May 8, 2011

May 8, 2011

Hi -
I just wanted to send you a note to let you know how fantastic Back2Life was this past weekend. As you know, we were very excited to have Kurt, Marcie, Mark and the rest of the gang perform as our wedding band. From the moment we first heard them over a year ago at a BVTLive! showcase, we knew this was the right band for us. We were so impressed with how professional and organized Kurt was in our many discussions leading up to the wedding. We felt so confident that they understood what type of vibe we were going for. They even went out of their way to learn and play a special Beatles set for us, which was amazing!

We could not have been happier with their performance this past Sunday. From the first dance to the horah to the final song and even to the encore, they had all of our guests up and dancing the entire time. We received so many compliments from our guest about how fun and great the band was, and we could only nod and agree. Jill and I were up on the dance floor for the entire party and there was never a dull moment. There were many things that went into making our wedding a truly special day, but Back2Life was literally the life of the party, and it would not have been the same without them. Please feel free to share this with the rest of the band and let them know how grateful and appreciative we are for everything they did for us, both leading up to and at the actual wedding. We are more than happy to serve as a reference for them in the future and will definitely be recommending them (and BVTLive! as a company) to all of our friends.

Thanks again for making everything so easy and so amazing. They really rocked!

Best,
Jason and Jill

Hi Kurt,

I just wanted to sincerely thank you and your band members for making our wedding night one we will never forget!  You all did an awesome job, every song was great, you got the crowd going and kept them going and we loved every bit of it!  Honestly, I cannot tell you how many people raved about how awesome you guys were and are still talking about it! Every time we have seen or heard from someone that was at the wedding in the past few weeks, they say something about "the band"!!!  We cannot thank you enough. I would recommend you all any day of the week to anyone interested in an excellent band for an event.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
