The BEST band around

I don’t even know where to begin! You NEED to hire JHAT for your wedding or any other event. They are amazing. Our wedding guests can’t stop talking about how much fun they had and how great JHAT is. They were so interactive and attentive to what we wanted, and made our wedding day that much more perfect. We had to change our wedding date multiple times because of COVID and Bryan and the crew worked with us every step of the way. JHAT is very affordable, a TON of fun and just puts the icing on the cake for any event they are at. I can’t recommend JHAT enough. Thank you guys for making our day so amazing!

Jimmy & the Hat Tricks were amazing! They put on a performance that guests of the event are STILL talking about!! The selection of music was great; with several age groups at the event, it seemed like an impossible task to find something everyone could enjoy, but Jimmy & the Hat Tricks had no trouble at all. They are at the top of the list to use at future events! Thank you again for such awesome entertainment and a ton of fun!

Jhats rocks!

Jimmy and The Hat Tricks absolutely crushed it at our wedding. They put on an incredible show that had every guest commenting how good they were. The flow was great, the transitions from song to song were seamless and their renditions of the songs we added were amazing. I can not recommend them enough so if you are thinking about using them for your event, book them immediately.

Jimmy & the Hat Tricks are an amazing band!!! We have had the pleasure of working with them multiple times. First I will say is they really know how to judge the crowd and get them moving. From all my years of working in the industry I believe that this is a super important trait. They are on key and fun to be around too. I can't wait to work with them over and over again my ears never get tired :)
