Baby Boomers are retiring and they still love to
rock 'n' roll!
Bongo and the Point specializes in fun and feel good music from the late 50's and early 60's, yet they haven't forgotten the older residents and still enjoy performing songs from the 30's and 40's now and then. These songs trigger youthful memories and the great emotions that go along with them.
In their Independent Living concerts Bongo and the Point often see people dance and hear comments like "You just made my day. No! You just made my year!"
"Any time we have something special going on in our communities, Bongo and the Point is usually the first name that comes to mind for entertainment. Birthday parties, Luaus, whatever! They are awesome and our residents love them!"
Cathy Tillie
Activities Director
The Hamptons Senior living communities (2017)
When Bongo & the Point isn't on tour there are communities in East Texas that schedule them regularly for monthly birthday parties, happy hour and for Holiday or Summer events like Sock Hops and Luau's.

Bongo & the Point loves performing for Assisted Living Communities!
Sometimes the very best part is getting to talk afterward and getting to know these wonderful people a little better. As they age and need a bit more care they have to find a new normal and sometimes that's difficult. It's our hope to create an atmosphere of fun when we do a concert. You can often see residents singing along. So many of them know ALL the songs and all the words to the songs. It's even more fun to see the men singing along to "Going To The Chapel","It's My Party", and "Daydream Believer!"
Here's what two Activity Directors of Assisted Living Facilities had to say about Bongo & the Point.
"I've hired them numerous times for numerous events and they have never let me down. They are incredible. They do the best covers of 50's, 60's and 70's hits that you have ever heard. I just love them so much." - Aeriel Holte, Atria Copeland 2016
"Our residents LOVE Bongo & the Point! Very energetic and fun. their music is toe tapping good!! " - Yvonne Sturrock, Activity Director, Prestige Estates, Tyler TX 2017

Nursing Homes and Memory Care facilities might actually be our favorite!
Bongo and the Point has actually seen people get up out of their wheel chair a time or two and it's so much fun! The way music can effect us is just amazing and Bongo & the Point loves to watch the way it can engage and encourage, both patients and their families. Not far from home, Bongo & the Point performs regularly at a memory care facility in Tyler Texas. So many great people work there and so many wonderful people are doing their best to live a full life even in the midst of challenging situations.
"Bongo" is honored to be able to be a small part of the ongoing life of this community of patients, their families and the professionals that serve them.
Don't hesitate to make contact if you think there might be a way for Bongo and the Point to help you lighten the load.
