Testimonials
"I have been listening to the boys of Coldwater for a little over a year and they are by far my favourite live band, bar none. The one thing that really stands out for these guys is the amazing depth and soul that they deliver in their live music. With just two of them (Andre Acoustic Guitar and lead Vocals, and Peter on Keyboard and backup vocals) they fill their venues with such rich music that you just can’t help but enjoy yourself, their energy is amazing!!!!
They play a very wide range of music from all of my favourites of the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s. From Roy Orbison, The Eagles, The Tragically Hip, to Peter Gabriel, these guys can play pretty much play anything. By far the most amazing music they play is their own stuff, which goes ever further to show just how flexible these two first class musicians are.
They bring a heart felt presence to their music that touches everyone who is listening. To that point they even bring patrons up to sing with them, this just goes further to show the soul these two have in their passion for music.
In closing I am planning a 50th Birthday party in 3 years and have already asked Coldwater to play for it. I hope that they will have the time as these guys are definitely going places!!!!"

After hearing Andre & Peter perform at a local venue, we discovered that they played all of our favorite songs and were a obvious choice for the most important day of our lives... We had Coldwater perform at our wedding last year and they provided us with fantastic entertainment which all of our guests enjoyed so much that they have since been asking them to perform at their functions. We also had an opportunity this year to ask Coldwater to play at a corporate function for 200 financial advisors and again - they were awesome!
It is great to be able to recommend with complete confidence and know that they will provide excitement & entertainment that is second to none. Not only are they talented musicians, they have become very good friends.
