"Mist & Gold performed for us a week ago at my 60th birthday party. We were extremely impressed at their standard of musicianship and all of our guests raved about them. They have a very good repertoire, from quieter songs, to more rousing ones, to get your guests up and dancing! They were also very nice people to deal with. Altogether a first class act and I highly recommend!"
