OUR EXPERIENCES IN WORKING WITH PERFORMERS ON THE GO, LLC

​

​
Our son was only 14 when he was first connected with Patty Duffey from Performers On The Go. He’d been playing bass in rock bands through a program in our town, but it was a couple of low-pressure performance concerts per year, and we didn’t really know what else was beyond that. With Patty, he auditioned and made lead bassist for her Catching Arrows and Performers On The Go touring bands. He has spent the past four years touring top venues around New England, improving his musical prowess and stage presence and building self-confidence that has carried to all aspects of his life. He has shined in competitions against top professional adult bands and won international and local awards. I strongly recommend Patty 's services and programs.-Doug and Laura Fox, August 2023

​

Nick Yee has proudly played with 'Performers on the Go' bands, Synco and Catching Arrows, for 5.5 years. Through dedicated coaching and myriad performance opportunities, Nick honed not only musical prowess but also invaluable life skills. From building self-confidence and racking up a list of over 30 gigs, to mastering the art of collaboration with bandmates on song choices, arrangements, and live performances, the experience has been profoundly enriching. We're immensely grateful for the organization's coordination and consistent communication over the years, ensuring a positively impactful and career-enhancing journey for Nick. He is now looking forward to continuing his music journey at Berklee College of Music next year. Thank you for everything! -Tony and Sandra Yee, August 2023

Performers on the Go has provided an excellent client experience for my daughter and our family as a whole. My daughter has been a singer-songwriter since her youth, and we found Patty Duffey and Performers on the Go when my daughter was a young teen. We are so glad that we did! Patty and her company have provided a myriad of live performance and recording opportunities, as well as connections and relationships within the industry that otherwise might not be available to my daughter’s age group. My daughter’s growth and development as an artist, as well as her career have flourished. Highly recommend!  -Pam Rice, parent of singer songwriter in program/February 2021

​

My daughter Rachel was the lead singer of Coda Sky from 2011-2015.  Coda Sky performed just about every weekend at impressive venues all over New England.  The band manager Patty Duffey encouraged the band  to write their own songs and eventually were able to produce an eleven track CD.  This experience gave Rachel confidence in herself as well as making lifelong friends  with the other band members.  We appreciate and will never forget the time and effort Patty dedicated to Coda Sky. -Kathy Neves, Coda Sky lead singer parent/February 11, 2022​

​

I highly recommend Patty Duffey, CEO/owner of Performers on The Go. Her experience in the music field is excellent, and she is a great coach and resource for artists seeking a music career.  -Corrine Santarlasci, parent of singer songwriter in the program for three years/February 2022

I’ve gained so many valuable assets and overall branding and management experience through quality training and care. It’s a great community and super way to network as well! I’ve had a wonderful experience the past 2+ years working with the organization as a client. It’s also so much fun! Owner, Patty Duffey, goes above and beyond with her clients.  -Moni Grace, Singer Songwriter /February 2022

If you are tired of licensing the same old music as everyone else, take a look at Patty and Performers On The Go. She represents some of the most talented younger artists, with fresh and unique sounds. Music is such a great differentiation opportunity for your brand, but only if you have access to the right artists and sounds. Patty can help. -Doug Fox, parent of two clients; singer songwriter and band member of Catching Arrows and Synco
