Rock n' Joe entertained the SHS Class of '69 all night long with great music we grew up with. They took request and were fun to watch and listen to. They kept people on the dance floor. We would invite them back to a future '69 event.

I have had the opportunity to work with Rock n' Joe on several occasions. They are always professional and a delight to work with for our events. Their music appeals to people of all ages and their talent is apparent.

Rock n' Joe performed classic rock and country music for our outdoor birthday party of about 90 people. They provided all the sound equipment, allowed us to use their mikes for toasting, and kept the fun going for 3 hours. Many asked where they were from, how we found them and praised their performance. Perhaps they could have been set up a little earlier; however, with our outdoor venue, people had plenty to see. Next time we will call Joe and party before even looking for anyone else - that is how pleased we were!

Rock n' Joe was the perfect duo for our company bbq event. The variety and pacing of the songs performed were great. I highly recommend Rock n' Joe for any event where you want the added ambiance of live performance. We will definitely use them again!
