It has been such a pleasure working with you over the past
several months. The Plantation Singers were a tremendous
asset at our Marketing Workshop in Charleston this past
September and "Blue Chip" did an excellent job at our
Christmas Party.
Not only have you recommended and arranged some of the best
entertainment that I've had the pleasure of experiencing,
but you, yourself, are a meeting planner's dream. Thank you.
There were times when I needed reassurance and you gave it in
your calm and professional manner. I trust your opinion and
know that we will work together for a long time to come.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to
contact me. I look forward to talking with you again soon.
Sincerely,
Wendy R. Mooneyham

Dear David:
I had such a fun time working with you to select musical entertainment
for the Smithsonian Magazine dinner functions. You couldn’t have been nicer
and more generous with your time.
I just knew our lengthy phone conversations and many Federal Express
exchanges would pay off. Your guidance to the perfect bands, yet different
sound each evening, was right on target!
From David Archer’s rock ‘n roll Band (of course, the best) to Ray Michael’s
to the fabulous Plantation Singers and finally to our beloved Dixieland Boys
who played until their fingers and feet were raw….we thank them all!
You are a gem! The world need more great people like YOU.
Warmest regards,
Paula Hess Varner
Associate Marketing Director

Mr. Archer:
I want to let you know that the event for Toyota Motor Sales at
Hibernian
Hall on May 5, 1999 was a huge success. Our participants loved the
setting, enjoyed the service…and danced! That doesn’t happen very
often, and I attribute that to you and your band.
It was extremely helpful for me to be able to talk to you directly prior
to
the event. I was able to communicate our expectations for the
evening and
immediately felt comfortable with your knowledge and
understanding.
That comfort level only increased when the band started playing. The
soft background jazz was perfect throughout dinner, and as the night
progressed, the band read the crowd and had them dancing even before
the desserts were served!
Please feel free to distribute this letter to any meeting/event planner
who
is considering your group. I have been in the business for quite some
time
and have worked with very few entertainers who can play so many
different
styles well.
Thank you once again for assisting us that evening. Best wishes for your
future success.
With kind regards,
Chris Galloway

To Whom It May Concern:
This letter will serve as an enthusiastic and hearty endorsement of the
David Archer Band, which recently performed for my sales force at our
national sales meeting in Kiawah Island, South Carolina. David and his
group played a variety of music to cater to a broad age group and varied
requests and handled it all in a professional and entertaining manner.
The barometer for me was how involved our people got in the singing and
dancing and they certainly did both. We thoroughly enjoyed the evening,
thanks to the David Archer Band.
I would heartily recommend them for any group function or party as they
are very flexible and can tailor their music to your needs.
Sincerely,
George F. Carroll, Jr.

Dear David:
Thank you for performing as part of our recent Sales Meeting at
Wild Dunes Resort. Like last year, we took advantage of your
services in conjunction with our dinner cruise aboard the
Spirit of Charleston.
We like to book the dinner cruise for our first night at Wild
Dunes, because it helps our Associates to "loosen up" and enjoy
themselves. Your band’s performance really assists us in this effort,
for it gets us out on the dance floor, where we can relax and
clear our minds for the long week ahead. Many of our Associates
have made comments as to the great sound and selection your
group has given us, which is why we asked for you again this year.
Thanks to you and your band for helping make our first night at
Wild Dunes such a tremendous kick-off and morale booster for
our annual meeting.
Best regards,
John Sylvestri
Region Sales Manager
Columbia, SC
