Featuring Tres Moustache as our Best Band Evuh!
"All great things come in threes: morning, noon, night; breakfast, lunch, dinner; three wishes from a Genie, and of course, Trés Moustache, the collaboration of three perfect musical minds known as Yonke, Hammer, and Booty. Taking influences from all of their favorite musicians, Trés Moustache brings perfect live acoustic sound to any room, street, or venue they play at, and they rarely leave people without tears in their eyes. People love their tenacity while on stage, and their witty banter keeps audiences craving their every moment of musical pleasure."
Thank you for helping us donate a quarter million dollars to Lurie Children's Hospital! Help us reach the half million dollar mark at The Best Day Evuh Gala! Hope to see you there.
