“Our sincerest thank you to the CruiseTones for a joyous night at our College Park High School Reunion. The playlist was superb, it was like being at a rock ‘n roll dance concert!  All the very best ~ Dr Tom

“To celebrate Jeff’s milestone 60th birthday, we sought a party band who were versatile, professional, crowd pleasers, and excellent and talented musicians with an expansive repertoire of songs, especially from the 50’s, 60’s and 70’s—an era of real music and songs that our guests could reminisce and relate to. With heartfelt appreciation to Dana, Ric, Nancy and Bob, they totally fit the bill.  They kept the dance floor packed with their energy and expert selection of songs “ebbing and flowing” with the crowd.  Many of our guests raved about them and expressed what a great party it was.  We highly recommend them. While planning for our event, we had several special requests to which Dana was very accommodating and fulfilled.  Jeff even got to jam with the band on several songs! Thank you so much for contributing to the success of our party and for giving us and our guests a fabulous evening that we will always remember and treasure”.      Rebecca & Jeff – Walnut Creek, CA

Thanks again for a wonderful evening and being a part of our wedding day!” – Andrea and Rob

“BEST OF THE BAY” – Readers Choice, Diablo Magazine
BEST WEDDING BAND – The Fabulous CruiseTones

“It’s easy to go wrong with a wedding entertainment. The world is full of cheesy deejays who talk too much and bad cover bands that can clear out a dance floor with a single Dire Straits croon. To avoid such pitfalls Diablo readers turn to The Fabulous CruiseTones, who got top nod as the East Bay’s best wedding band. From from the Beatles to Elvis to Motown to Van Morrison to the Eagles to Prince to Santana to Gnarles Barkley, you get the picture, the CruiseTones interpret the best tunes from the last several decades up through today in their own ‘fabulous’ style. Dana Messing, keyboards & vocals, Stephanie Teel, vocals, guitar & flute, Steve Cameron, vocals & drums, and Ric Wilson (no, he’s not a Beach Boy, he just sings like one) vocals & guitar, can jam as a trio or add more pieces and really rock the joint.” – Diablo Magazine

“Dear Fabulous CruiseTones, on behalf of the Gilroy Garlic Festival, the Entertainment Committee would like to compliment you on your professionalism and dynamic performance.

Sincerely, – Marc Baliton, Gilroy Garlic Festival Entertainment Chair”

“Dear Dana, we want to thank you and “The Fabulous CruiseTones” for your terrific musical contribution to our party. As I’m sure you noticed by the continually occupied dance floor, our guests enjoyed your playing immensely! We received countless comments from our friends regarding how much they enjoyed the band and the music you played. Tom and I also appreciated how easy you were to work with in accommodating our requirements for the party. We look forward to using “The Fabulous CruiseTones” at our next affair. Once again, thank you for being such a pleasant group to deal with and for making our party such an overwhelming succes!

“Dear Dana, Gary and I want to express to you and the other members of the band a heart-felt “thank you” for making our wedding (Oct 12th, Sharon Heights Country Club) such a memorable one. You all truly out-did yourselves! As I hoped you noticed everybody was dancing and your encore really topped off the evening. Even our out of town guests took your cards, hoping that someday they might have you play at one of their functions! Take care and we look forward to “hearing” you soon.
Sincerely, – Sheila & Gary”
