Here are what two recent clients had to say about hiring Narrow Gauge:
Dear Jim,
We were very happy with your services. You took care of all the set up and tear down as well as any issues during the night. This goes for the cocktail/dinner music as well. All of your musicians were really friendly and flexible ( i.e. having 6 girls up on stage to sing) and your fun attitude was much appreciated. You also did an excellent job keeping the wedding on track (i.e. getting the dancing started) without pressuring us to follow a time line exactly. Most importantly though, the music was great and there was never an empty dance floor....or even a sparsely populated one! It was by far one of the best parties I've been to, and to have it be our wedding too was more that we could have asked for."
Thanks,
Kyler and Emily Brown
Dear Gigleader,
Thank you Gigleader for leading us to such a great band for our wedding! Narrow Gauge was the perfect fit. We had looked all over and could not find a band that we thought would fit our guests. We love country music and so did many of our guests, but there were also people who liked a variety of different genres of music. Narrow Gauge played to the crowd and kept the dance floor packed all night. We had so much fun that we even hired them for an extra set! Narrow Gauge was easy to work with! Jim was so helpful in helping us plan our reception. We had all the details worked out weeks before the reception, so I could try to relax! He even MC'd the event for us. They let several of our guest sing on stage with them, and even let Steve, my new husband play bass on one song. He doesn't even know how to play bass, but somehow it sounded great. During their breaks they had DJ music pumping through the dance floor, so even when they weren't playing, our guests kept dancing! It was truly a night to remember. Thank you Narrow Gauge for your professionalism and talent. You were so phenomenal! We couldn't recommend you more highly!

Female/male rock duo Pairadeux is unlike any duo you've ever heard. We can fill dance floors or provide background entertainment at a networking event. Utilizing guitar, vocals, electronic drums and percussion, all performed LIVE, we sound like more than two people. Unlike most full bands, our volume and demeanor is appropriate for any venue - from home rec rooms to hotel ballrooms and beyond.
We play cover songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's thru today. Our extensive, diverse set list ranges from the Beatles to Coldplay, Elton John, Janis Joplin, Natalie Merchant, Sheryl Crow, K.T. Tunstall, Grateful Dead, David Gray, Counting Crows, Fleetwood Mac, Incubus, James Taylor and many, many more.
Pairadeux plays 80-100 shows per year. We are very audience-interactive, often involving everyone with singalongs, trivia and animated conversation.
Pairadeux performs with wireless mics and instruments, so we often roam into the audience.
All music is performed live; no canned or prerecorded backing tracks are used, though you might hear an occasional 'sample'.
While we specialize in rock material, we are happy to take requests in that genre and others. These requests are best made prior to the performance.
We look forward to playing at YOUR event!
