Sojourn live at Brennan Vineyards in Comanche, TX- Dec. 31, 2009

"We really enjoyed having Sojourn play at our company holiday party. They are very professional and talented! They kept us dancing and they looked like they were having a great time too. I would recommend this band to anyone." Martha Grizzell, Allegiance Capital
"Sojourn played at our wedding and reception on October 18, 2008. They are excellent and I highly recommend this band to anyone needing live music for a special occasion. They are very professional and very talented. They were willing to accommodate every special request we had for the ceremony and the reception music. Our guests raved and raved about how good the band was and how they were able to play all different types of music (country, rock, 80's, classical, etc.) We are so happy Sojourn played at our wedding; they were truly one of the main components that made our wedding day so special and memorable." Laura & Mike M, Houston, TX

"I want to thank you ... for a job well done playing at (our) customer holiday party. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed your music. It was a real pleasure working with such a professional group from start to finish. I would highly recommend Sojourn for anyone's event, large or small."
Stephanie Jordan, General Manager, Business Jet Center, Dallas, TX
"From the initial contact, via e mail, all the way to the end of the event, it was a wonderful experience for our committee and our guests. We could not have had the good fortune to have found a better band, both musically speaking and professional in their performance. I truly believe our event was the success it was because of Sojourn's great music and crowd appeal. We will definitely be contacting Sojourn again for our events, and given the reaction of our audience, we better not wait too long!" Cindy Darling, Youth Board Member, Our Saviour Lutheran Church and School, McKinney, TX
"I have to say that your band was very professional and the sound and music selection were excellent. As the musical representative for KLUV, they (Sewell Automotive) were very pleased with the results and you made us look good! Thanks for providing such high quality entertainment. I would heartily recommend Sojourn to anyone who needs a first class act." Jay Miller, 98.7 KLUV, Dallas, TX
"Our "Music Under The Stars" (concert) was a big hit thanks to Sojourn...(they) kept the crowd alive throughout the evening. I've already recommended them to other clients." Kimberly Woodard, Deerfield Homeowners Association, Plano, TX
"It was such a a pleasure working with you and Sojourn at the H-P National Sales Meeting. Given the difficult and challenging circumstances of working in a very large and complex environment such as the Venetian Hotel in Las Vegas, Sojourn was exceptionally flexible and entertaining. Your selection of music was perfect for the time and the crowd. Your band members engaged the audience and definitely played to the crowd. You're a very talented and professional band!" Ann Foster, H-P/Consumer Marketing Planning Manager, Vancouver, WA
Oakmont Country Club- Denton, TX Dec. 31, 2007
Great singers, great instrumentalists and great performers are a rarity in popular music. Not so with Sojourn! Clients are uniformly stunned to see how many different styles of music this group performs during a single performance. Audiences often remark how true to the original performance the group sounds. Many assume they are listening to a CD when the group itself is actually performing live! Sojourn is such a versatile act that they often invite the audience to try and "stump the band" with on the spot requests! Smooth jazz, pop, rock, country, folk and more are found within the group's comprehensive setlist. All three performers sing lead and backing vocals making the group sound like a much larger act. Riley's years of national voice over experience enable him to handle routine announcements with style and professionalism unmatched by anyone else. Specific costumes, from Hawaiian shirts/shorts or cowboy attire to full blown tuxedos, are entirely up to the client. You simply can't find a more accommodating, flexible group!
Unlike bigger bands that charge a high price for a single show, Sojourn is competitively priced and provide an unforgettable entertainment experience each performance!
