Praise for 3:1

"This professional group of musicians knocked our socks off with their instrumental jazz numbers, then changed format in mid-stream to include requests for dance numbers in which they performed flawlessly."
~ Stacey Howell, Henderson Leadership Initiative, Inc.

"In my two decades in the entertainment business, I have had the opportunity to work with a lot of bands, but few are as versatile and can fit in at any venue or occasion. The Indy based trio 3:1 is one of these rare bands. This trio can play in the smallest club to a handful of people or at a large outdoor fest and still please the entire crowd. They can play smooth instrumental jazz at a black tie affair, or get funky for the dance lovers. I was amazed at all the different types of music that came out this three piece band. They are all multi-talented musicians who understand a crowd and the surroundings they are in. I would recommend this band for any event. I am definitely impressed!"
~ Reggie Helm, Helm Productions & Promotions
