  Best Band Ever!

  We recently had LoveStoned perform at our 235-person wedding and they were truly phenomenal. We had many guests say that they were the best wedding band they had ever seen - and we may be biased, but we agree! Guests at the hotel restaurant were specifically requesting to sit on the patio so that they could listen to our band. Their energy was infectious and kept the dance floor jam packed from the first song to the last - seriously, there was not a single person sitting down and the dance floor was standing room only. They genuinely seemed to be having fun on stage and enjoying their performance. They work together as a team SO WELL and are able to showcase all of the incredible talents between the various vocalists and other instrumentalists. They went above and beyond to learn our first dance song, which was not well known, and allowed us to curate a special playlist of all our favorites. The band manager was very responsive and easy to work with and the overall process was extremely smooth. They absolutely knocked it out of the park and we cannot recommend them highly enough!

  West Coast Music's band ENCORE played at our daughters wedding at The Resort at Pelican Hill. I can honestly say that they made the wedding. The band was so great that there was never room on the dance floor they sounded so good even the pickiest music critics loved it so much. People who never danced got up and danced and it was not because of the alcohol. They truly are a professional band and made our daughters wedding a success. We had the dream team of vendors at this wedding and it was flawless and so many people raved and are still raving about it. But most of all they asked about where we found the band. My son in law is in the entertainment industry therefore has insight to the best in the industry and found them and boy are we ever grateful to him for it. He has excellent taste and if you want people to have fun and you want your wedding to be talked about for years then hire ENCORE! They are the best don't hire the rest just go and hire them.

  These guys know how to party!! We hired JB Project as our band. It was the BEST dance party we've ever been to and people are still telling us months after the wedding how much fun they had on the dance floor! Their singers were so good! You could tell that they all work together a lot because they were so in sync. They let my husband and I come dance on the stage for a song, and let my husband hit the symbol at the end of the song. Seriously so much fun! I'd hire them a million times over.

  Expensive but worth every penny!!!! It was an incredible night and its because of Encore Band. I still cant get over how talented and upbeat this group was. Everyone had a blast. During our first day Make Me Feel my Love by Adele, it felt like Adele was the one singing. She had such a beautiful voice. I want to go back in time!! They company was easy to work with and they listened to all of our request!! Thanks for the most amazing night

  Nearly two months later, my husband and I are still hearing how amazing the band was at our wedding.
  
  Everyone says that there are just a few variables that really matter when making an event special, and music is absolutely at the top of that list. I’m sure that there are plenty of options for bands in the Southern California area, but I can’t imagine that any of them could match the energy, playlist range and crowd reading ability of West Coast Music. We’ve been to a number of weddings with live music over the years, and successfully covering modern hits along with the oldies-but-goodies is a rare ability.
  
  Our band leader and artists were so incredibly talented (think limbo-ing mid song) and kept the party going throughout the entire night. I loved working with the helpful, knowledgeable office staff in the lead-up, too (and thank them for dealing so professionally with a brief moment of bridal panic!), and they helped us expertly script the flow of the reception to maximize the fun factor.
  
  After fulfilling the guests’ requests for “one more song!” at the end of the night, the leader came up to me with a cell phone that had been dropped on the dance floor. That was icing on the cake for my amazing experience with West Coast Music. I can’t recommend them more highly for a wedding, gala or any other special event.

  I cannot say enough great things about West Coast. We hired the Cowling band for our wedding and they are AWESOME!!! The band is pretty much all people could talk about after our wedding. They kept the party rocking all night long. My only regret is that we didn't extend our wedding an hour later so we could have had them play more. Jim at West Coast is great, when my husband and I first went to meet with him he spent 2 hours with us playing all sorts of great examples from all his bands. All six of the bands he has are excellent. We found it hard to pick which band we wanted because they were all that good! We ended up with Cowling because they were a little more our style of music and I'm so happy we did! Let me just say that by the end of the night our friends were pretty drunk and two of them jumped on stage with the band. One girl was playing drums with the drummer and our other friend was in the background being silly on air-guitar. The band was super cool about it and just kept playing. If you have it in your budget to splurge on your band I would HIGHLY recommend that you use West Coast. They are the best, hands down.

  West Coast Music is amazing! Every person at our wedding raved about our band (James Gang Encore) and what a fantastic performance they put on. If you need a band, talk to Jim at West Coast and he'll get you the right fit for your event. Simply put, James Gang Encore was the highlight of our night! West Coast Music even helps plan out the timing of the event and they certainly excel at delivering the goods! Many thanks for making our wedding unforgettable!!!

  When planning a wedding, music and food are usually the two things that most couples agree CANNOT BE COMPROMISED. If you also agree- put yourself in the hands of one of the West Coast Music bands and don't give your entertainment another thought. All of the bands are recording artist quality (we had Encore at our wedding), and they play such a diverse range of music, not a single guest will feel excluded. Jim was so wonderful throughout the sales and planning experience--he is incredibly knowledgeable, and met with me to create an intricate timeline so that the music flowed seamlessly and the energy was maintained throughout the event! The band was even willing to memorize and play a few special requests, including our first dance song! Seriously guys, you can get a cheaper band, or you can invest in having perfection and treating your guests to a private concert of the greatest caliber!!!
