Client Testimonials:
"Let me add my gratitude for your performance...outside of getting Dave Matthews himself (and then I would have been competing for my wife's attention all night ;-)), we could not have picked a better group of musicians to perfect the ceremony and rock the reception!

"Whoa big-time! Y'all did an incredible job at Kanuga - just like you promised. You perfectly crafted an exceptional crescendo of music, ending with the terrific "I Saw Her Standing There." Everyone was dancing - you exceeded every hope and expectation that we had.
Many many people have raved about your performance saying things like, "They sound like five guys playing!" and "They are gifted - they can play anything!" and "Those guys are loaded with personality." We agree! And we also loved how intuitive you were when you adlibbed music for the garter throw, the cake cutting and the father's toast. Such creativity.

What do you get when you cross the best singer/songwriter/guitarist in the Carolinas with a funky upright bass playing transplant from South Florida? Well, besides a run-on sentence, you get Evan Olson and Dana. Together they create some of the best quasi-acoustic music you've ever heard. They play it all, from the Stray Cats to the Rolling Stones, Lynyrd Skynyrd to Lionel Ritchie and everything in between. Evan and Dana even do some great original music too. So check the calendar, put on your dancing shoes and get ready to have the night of your life!
yeahhh I took a video of it. (I will post it for you) I was getting ready last night and had my computer in my bathroom so I could play it and watch it. I danced a little too hard and broke a glass then got toothpaste everywhere. Thank you very much gentleman. Both of you were waaaayyy too much fun. I will be seeing you around!
Great job at Cooper's last Friday, as usual. You also sounded phenomenal on the one song we managed to catch Saturday at J.Butlers. This week, we learn better time management.
Thanks for the bday wishes! I think I may be making it out there to see you play next weekend! I loved te show and hated that I had to leave after the first set!
You guys know that I love to be in the top friendz! anyways, glad you added me and of course I want to open for you boys sometime? let me give it a shot, i think i will surprize even EvAN! peace homeys ROBv3
