"The band was exquisite. They were all set up with sound checks completed (in a room with a challenging layout) well before guests arrived. Every band member looked and sounded professional, and made the event more fabulous by how much they clearly love their work. They were very flexible & patient in accommodating an unusual evening program with multiple last-minute changes. Several guests commented that the band is what really made the evening special and memorable. I couldn’t agree more. I highly recommend Mickey James & the Queen City Crew!"

“Mickey James & the Queen City Crew are the real deal in every way. Their talent and professionalism is completely top notch. They’re not just dressing a part – they’re genuinely living and breathing an eras gone by culture through its music. Whether you already enjoy the music they play or not, you’ll be a fan after you see their live show once. They can get folks of all ages out on the dance floor and their energy, stage presence and musical skill makes for a wonderful experience!”

“I am not big on ‘thank you’s’, but I owe you a huge one!  … The band was awesome, the play list was fantastic, the mood you guys created was absolutely perfect!  A number of people came up and commented on the band throughout the evening and even this week, as we continue to get feedback… With all of that, the best compliment I can give is about the professionalism of the group.  It is an awesome feeling when you’re running an event and you know you don’t have to worry about a certain aspect.  That is exactly how I felt about you guys.  Everything was perfect!”

“Mickey,

I want to thank you for booking your band “Mickey James & the Queen City Crew” into my club. From the first gig, I knew it was going to be a perfect fit for York St. Cafe.

It’s a great room & you attracted a crowd that was truly into your music. People danced all night, spent money, & had a wonderful evening! It’s a pleasure working with you & your talented crew, not only because the music is outstanding, but also because of the professionalism & respect given to our guests & our staff.

We’re really looking forward to your upcoming shows. Your band would also be a great fit for some of the events & wedding receptions we have coming up & I will definitely pass on your number.

See you soon!”

“I recently hired Mickey James and the Cincinnati Crew for an exclusive event at Great American Ballpark with the Northern Kentucky University Athletic Department. The communication with the group was easy and their responses to my inquiries were made in a timely fashion. Of particular note was their flexibility and pleasant disposition in dealing with all of the facets of the event. The music was exceptionally played, at a perfect volume for the room, and perfectly planned based on the information I gave them. The patrons were extremely impressed with the group and several made it a point to compliment the musicians. The host for the event was delighted and went as far to tell me that without Mickey James and the Queen City Crew, the event would not have been as successful nor impressive. It is without hesitation that I highly recommend Mickey James and the Queen City Crew to my colleagues, and I fully intend to utilize their services as much as possible.”
