“Your group provided the magic touch elevating our event to the highest standards we could expect.   The ambiance and class you provided for the evening was absolutely beautiful.  Everyone commented on the group’s performance.  Thank you for partnering with the Shining Stars!   We are so very grateful.”

"Flatirons Jazz Orchestra is simply one of the best bands I've ever heard. These are the best musicians around, and as a larger group, their complexity of sound really fills out a room and does justice to the great swing-era charts.”

“The Flatirons Jazz Orchestra is a first-class professional band, with talent to spare! We had a lovely summer-back-yard-under-the-tent celebration of the season with 200 guests, who danced into the night with abandon.  It was so memorable, we immediately booked them again for next year. They are thoroughly outstanding and a pleasure to do business with. My guests would all recommend them to anyone interested in a magical big band.”

I know the weather created a few challenges, so I really appreciate your flexibility and patience throughout the evening. Despite wind and rain, your performance helped keep the energy alive, and it was wonderful to see so many dedicated dancers staying until the very end. Thank you again for sharing your talent with our guests and helping make the event such a success. ~ Khyentse George - 1940's WWII Ball
