Testimonials

"Thank you REWiND for a night of fantastic first-class entertainment! We danced the night away, sang to every song, and thoroughly enjoyed your performance. Even when I was sitting, I could not help moving to the music. Many people commented to me afterwards how much fun they had. You helped to make the event a success, and we really enjoyed working with you. Thank you for being a part of our BIT (Business Information Technology) 50th Anniversary Gala Dinner!"

~Cristy Kubara, Project Coordinator, Applied Computer Education, Red River College

"REWiND performed at our 100th Anniversary Gala and rocked the house. Because the band has so many former and active teachers as members they were celebrating right along with us. Their enthusiasm and talent helped make our event at the Fairmont extra special and they filled the dance floor. Thanks Larry and the whole band!"

~James Bedford, President, Manitoba Teachers' Society

"One of the best AGM Dinner and Dance evenings in recent history...The band played great songs and as all could see they had everyone up dancing from the first to the last tune...I have been to 18 AGM’s across the country over the years and there never was anyone left after 10:00 PM. We left at 11:20 and it was still going strong...Never seen such a good group...Thanks to REWIND for making this such a wonderful evening. We look forward to seeing REWiND perform at the Corydon Street Festival."

~Alan Whitson, Royal Canadian Mounted Police Veterans' Association

"REWiND took a packed house on a rich journey through decades of some of our favorite music. Their polished performances, high level of musicianship, energy, seamless programming, and good-natured stage presence drew the audience right into the show. This band truly puts a shine on the Golden Age of pop, rock and doo-wop!"

~Loretta Thorleifson, The Manitou Opera House Foundation

"Wow, what an amazing show, the crowd was thrilled! Such a wonderful evening and blast from the past...I sang along to every song and bebopped all the way home! The dear hearts and gentle people of Neepawa loved you...As patrons were leaving from the concert I heard them say that REWiND was worth the full price of the entire season. Thanks for ending our series with a bang!"

~Val Jarema & Moira Woods, Neepawa Kaleidoscope Concert Series Organizers

"The Electrical Association of Manitoba would like to thank REWiND for helping us create a fantastic evening at our Annual Gala Night & Charity Dinner held at Club Regent Event Centre...The feedback from our members was extremely positive and honestly, there was not one person who did not come away feeling charged by the energy and quality of the performance and music. Comments included “great charisma", "awesome stage presence", "fantastic vocals", "great fun", and "the band members work so well together”. I would highly recommend REWiND to any company or individual who is looking for entertainment at their next corporate or private venue."

~Karen Loney-Unger, Executive Assistant, Electrical Association of Manitoba

"When we decided on a 1950’s theme for our annual New Year’s gala, we were thrilled to have REWiND join the party. Their classic 50s tunes set the mood and had the dance floor hopping during our reception and as our after-dinner entertainment. They were professional, enthusiastic and worked closely to ensure their sets were engaging and entertaining – and they were! Thanks REWiND!"

~Karen Ilchena, Communications Specialist, RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg

"We could not have been more thrilled with the contribution REWiND made to Bottoms Up! - the CancerCare Manitoba Foundation fundraiser for colorectal cancer research and prevention. The band's upbeat, easy-listening style and captivating harmonies were a perfect mood-setter for our event. In addition, REWiND went above and beyond what was expected by composing a brand-new song, "Up the Poop Chute," which was both very funny and fully appropriate to the theme of our fundraising effort... I would gladly recommend this talented bunch to anyone who's looking to add a bit of music and fun to their event."

~Brad Oswald, Chair, Bottoms Up! organizing committee

“We organized an event at Rembrandt’s Bistro and invited our friends and neighbours to attend, REWiND to perform. At one point in their concert, REWiND presented a teddy bear to one of our special guests who is an avid Elvis fan. Gord then sang Teddy Bear to her. Bottom line: it not only made her day, it made her week, month, her year! To me the whole show was a big success. Everyone who was there had a great time and left looking forward to REWiND’s next concert.”

~Terry Gardiner, Platoon Chief, Winnipeg Fire Department
