| Hi Burke!
We just wanted to take a minute to thank you and Clifton for a
wonderful day last Saturday. So many guests asked where we found you
and had many nice things to say about your talent. Everyone thought
you both were great. We also appreciate the fact that you were so
flexible and just willing to go with the flow. The entertainment at a
wedding reception is so important and can make a huge difference in
whether or not the guest have a good time (the alcohol doesn't hurt
either). But really, I can't thank you both enough for being so great
and for contributing to the success of the day. If you ever need a
reference for other brides feel free to send them my way. We only
have good things to say. Thanks again and have a great week!

Dear Clifton & Burke,
Yesterday you performed for my brother-in-law's wedding at the
Hayloft. I just wanted to say how much we really enjoyed the
entertainment. My husband and I (musical ourselves) appreciated the
professionalism, dedication, precision, and quality that Melonbelly showed.
We know that long hours, hard work, and the love of music all go into a
flawless performance...so thank you for sharing that with us.
As I said, we all enjoyed it, even the smallest of the bunch. It was my
niece Maggie, the little girl in pigtails, that rocked out to you at the
end. Not even two, she knows good music when she hears it! :-) Thank you for including the younger ones in their own set of Ring O Round the Rosie,
London Bridge and Itsy Bitsy Spider!
Attached is a photo I took of Melonbelly..and I turned it into photo art.
Hope you like it! Best of luck on future endeavors, and I hope we have the good fortune to hear you guys again.
Sincerely,
The H. Family

Dear Clifton and Burke,
Thank you so much for making our most important day so relaxed and so
special. We were most surprised and most grateful that you took the time to
learn a song very special to us. You both helped our day to be fun, relaxed,
and you added such a touch of class to our ceremony and reception. I would
highly recommend Melonbelly for any event - you were easy to work with and
really took the time to make sure that we heard everything we wanted. It is
so nice to work with musicians who are truly interested in the happiness of
their clients. Thank you so much for everything!

The Stanly Regional Medical Foundation Fundraiser
Melonbelly was the ideal duo for our fundraiser. Burke and Clifton are entertainers, great musicians and sing in wonderful harmony. What a bonus that they were personable and professional. They were attentive to the variety of guests attending the fundraiser and their music selection was perfect for the crowd. Melonbelly was really a brilliant addition to the fundraiser this year. I have shared contact information for Melonbelly numerous times since the fundraiser and look forward to working with them and/or seeing them perform again. Any event, any occasion---Burke and Clifton will impress your guests.

Wedding Reception - Seven Lakes, NC
“We LOVE the band! Where did you find them? They are perfect! Where can
we buy their CD? Oh, and by the way, your wedding was beautiful.”…These
are just a few of the comments we heard at our March 25 wedding
reception, and we still have guests emailing us with similar remarks to
this day! From the moment we talked with Cliff and Burke and listened
to their music, we knew we had found our guys! They have such a huge
repertoire of songs, and they even offered to learn a song or two if necessary. They were extremely professional, yet laid back
and went out of their way countless times to make sure we felt relaxed
and at ease. More than anything, Cliff and Burke are extremely nice
guys who genuinely cared about making our wedding day special. "
- Brandon and Tracy T.
(We received a nice Christmas note from Brandon...)
Hey guys -
Just wanted to send a quick thanks for the Chrismas CD I ordered - It was Tracy's absolute favorite gift (said it was the most thoughtful!)! We listened to it in the car since we were on the road a lot over the holidays (between grandparents' houses - we've got a six month old now!!)
We still talk about what a great job you did at our reception and we're also honored that we're still up on your site!
Hope to see you perform in person again sometime soon. Thanks again for everything!

Dear Clifton and Burke,
Thank you again for being a very special and important part of our celebration. We cannot express how happy we were with your performance. Everyone at the reception was so impressed with your style and how well you complemented our evening. Paige and I have to give ourselves a pat on the back too! We put our celebration together with virtually no outside help or recommendation and selected Melonbelly based only on an internet search and our wishes to have an acoustic electric guitar duo to perform a variety of renditions of pop, country and light rock versions of our favorite more current popular music that would be pleasing to all of our guests, young and old. We will always remember Melonbelly as a part of our once-in-a-lifetime event that made it a day to remember. We hope to see you both again someday…if you have a mailing list please let us know where Melonbelly (and Clifton ) may be headed….maybe we will catch up to you sometime!
Thanks Again!
- Paige and David M.
