Testimonials.....  

Highway 99 Blues Club 

I was lucky enough to make it down to the Highway 99 Blues Club Happy Hour on Friday. This really is the best little big band in Seattle. It is rare that I get up and stay up to dance every single number, but Moxie makes it impossible to sit down. They rock the house. Don't miss them the next time they have a gig. Catch them while you can still get in! (satisfied patron….) 

Hope Link Gala   

Working with you guys was a breeze! You are flexible, resourceful and creative, in addition to being just a flat-out great group of musicians. Our guests loved the acoustic set for our silent auction, and the full-on band for the dancing after the live auction. You were the perfect capper for our gala, and really kept the party going. Thank you! (Venetia Vango)  

Garfield High School Auction  

"Moxie capped off the March 1, 2013 Garfield High "Raise the Woof" Auction/gala -- and to witness how they re-energized a whole  bunch of tired volunteers and auction guests, was inspiring. Their music is so well-played--they're excellent musicians (especially those horns!)--their singer is amazing--and they light up the room. We ALL had a good time!" (Marie) 

Corporate Party  

Moxie played at our company party held at Seattle Center on January 11th and they were absolutely AWESOME! We had over a hundred guests at the party and the dancing started the minute Moxie opened with their first song. Their mix of tunes was perfect for all ages and the "pipes" on the lead singer were the best we've heard from a live band. We had them play 3 extra long sets and the last song was as energetic as the first. It was the best entertainment we've had at our company functions in decades and we will not hesitate to have them back again. Great musicians, great sound, and nice people! There can't be a better combination!! Thanks Moxie--You know how to put put the "ROCK" in Rock and Roll! (Tom Barghausen)
