"Gayle Wilson’s Dance Band is the best! Her band has been playing
for the Rogue Valley Manor Dinner Dances for several years and we would not
trade bands for anything. The band
plays such danceable music that’s enhanced by Gayle’s beautiful voice. The
variety of music is amazing, the big band sound, rock & roll, swing, tango
and many others. They will take request and if they are not familiar with the
request, will learn it and play it next time. As Gayle says, “we aim to please”.
Gayle is so easy to work with and I have nothing but praise for her and her
band. They are all excellent musicians.”

"We wanted to treat our family to something special at our recent Family Reunion and filled the bill with Gayle & her Band. It's almost two months later and they are still talking about how much fun they had and how much they enjoyed the music and entertainment. The Band fit right in like they were part of the family! We are so glad they are a part of our memories."

Pacific Northwest Kiwanis Convention - August 2009
The talented Gayle
Wilson and her band provided a refreshing performance at our Pacific Northwest
Kiwanis Convention held recently in Medford. Not only were her music selections and renditions of
50-60-70’s hits excellent and enjoyed by all, but every step from contact to
contract negotiations to the performance itself was handled in a truly
comfortable and professional manner.
Gayle is a talented and gracious performer and we are pleased to
recommend Gayle to perform at any function.
Sincerely, Claudell King, Lt.
Governor PNW Kiwanis, Co-chair of the 92nd Annual PNW Convention. 541-474-2121 claudellking@aol.com

Dear Gayle,
We need to thank you
for the fantastic performance and music that you and your fellow musicians
provided for our Rotary Christmas party.
I simply had no idea how talented your group was or that individually
you had such a wonderful voice. It
was a great evening and we were fortunate that we selected you (and that
you were available!) to provide our music.I really don’t
know what to say other than thanks.
In large measure to you and your group our Christmas party was a great
success! (Underlining & italics his!)
Warmest regards, Bob Strosser bobs@cbprowest.com

Gayle, you just knock me out! The way you front the band, your
connection to the audience, how you treat the material, your preparation, your
style and grace, your confidance... Masterful! Some people are born with talent
but it's the people that do the footwork and present that talent with
precision, maximizing all aspects of the material and energizing the artists
around them, presenting to the audience not just a well rehearsed show, but a
gift. I'm truly inspired. Thanks.

Dear
Gayle,
What
a treat! Count us in your growing fan club! I found myself basking
in the intricate weave of your vocals mixing with the complex and enchanting
arrangements. How do you do it all? We've been telling everyone we
know about the show. I hope you have a great run. I'll let you know
about a next jam at our place. Thanks again for the gift of your
Carpenter show to the community.
Blessings,

“The Gayle Wilson Band is fantastic. I
always wanted a live band at my wedding and they exceeded my expectations.
They rocked the stage! All my guests were very impressed and commented on
how entertaining they were. Gayle accommodated my specific song
requests and kept the dance floor hopping with the classics, swing, line
dancing and good ol' rock'n roll! If you want to have a good
dance party, Gayle is your gal!”

Gayle,
Norie and I thoroughly enjoyed your performance on Karen Carpenter. Norie and I thought it was the best spotlight you've done. We both have listened to alot of Karen Carpenter on satellite radio and were curious to her story so researched it and learned alot about her and her brother...a tragic story for sure. We both just wanted to say "very well done" to you and the whole cast of people that made it possible. Brian O'Connor was the perfect narrator and Dal did a great job putting it all together... Thanks, and we hope you have some great holidays!

Hello, Good Morning and Congratulations Gayle.
Last nights performance of "Girl Singers" was M A R V E L O U S. The arrangements and direction by Dal Carver, plus the selection of the songs and performance of the musicians, was completely entertaining. David Gabriel proved to be the perfect narrator with facts, vocal accompaniment, and just the correct amount of humor. The research of facts about all the singers must have been a daunting job for someone. Your vocalization and presentation made the musical "marvelous"
Thank You. Terry Schultz dkw115@earthlink.net
