This girl group is sure to entertain and get the crowd jumping. They recently shared the stage with the famous 50's group, The Duprees who quoted, "Tre Bella is a tough act to follow" and have opened for such greats as comedians Pat Cooper and Mike Marino. The gals just recorded their first original tune, Baci Nel Oscuro (Kisses In The Dark) which is now charting radio stations! It's an evening of pure entertainment and joy! These girls always leave the audience smiling!!
