- Ellen Congo, Wedding Host


"I used to go to Asbury Park to chase LaBamba and the Hubcaps. I had a club, Ziegfelds, and the Hubcaps played at our opening night party. It was wonderful! Richie was great!"

“We have been getting a lot of compliments about the evening, but the most prominent by far was about how good the band was. There is no question there are many elements to a good party, but without the right music there simply isn’t a party! Thanks for doing what you do so well and making my party such a success”
- Nancy Basenese, Ford Motor Car Company


“I can’t tell you how gratifying it was to be continually complimented that night as well as the entire following week on throwing the best wrap party anyone had ever attended. Believe me, the reason for that was the music. I have never heard so many people rave about a live party band.”
- Richard Baratta, Unit Production Manager, Random Hearts Productions, Inc.


“One of the best live bands I’ve ever seen. All those great horns were just icing on the cake.”
- Mark McEwen, WCBS-TV


"I have to say my wedding was extraordinary. I had one of the best bands I've ever had in my life at anything I've ever participated in. Boy they rocked! We started off with one of LaBamba's favorites 'Havin' a Party', and we ended with 'Havin' a Party'".
- Edward James Olmos, Actor, Lean on Me
