Reviews of The Crab Shack Band

Hire This Band!

We hired Crab Shack for our wedding and could not be happier we chose them! They are a very talented band and kept everyone dancing all night - our guests loved them. Not only did they have a great setlist from the beginning, but they were willing to learn new songs for us too. They were a pleasure to work with and were genuinely excited to play at our wedding. I feel it's also important to mention that they are a great price. Some bands/DJs will overcharge for weddings but Crab Shack was twice the value of all those other bands you see on The Knot or Wedding Wire.

Seriously, they're the best and you should book them if you can!

Bringing the party to our wedding reception!

Crabshack performed for our wedding in July 2022, and we couldn't have been happier! We were looking for a band with a good vibe, that could rock and roll but also keep it light/fun for a lot of dancing. They struck the perfect balance and really were everything we were looking for. Their setlist was a huge hit (still getting compliments from the guests!) and all of our guests were dancing and having a great time until the very last minute. We worked with Chris to arrange everything, and he was incredibly flexible, accommodating, and easy to work with as well. If we had to do it again, we'd 100% choose Crabshack again. Our only complaint - that eventually it had to end! Thanks again Chris and everyone for making our wedding reception so much fun.

So Talented!

Highly recommend this band! We hired them to play at our wedding reception and they were amazing to work with! They played great songs, sounded amazing and even learned two new songs we requested. Our guests really enjoyed them and so did we!

We have to Tell you this was a great band and the folks were so happy to be there to play for us and celebrate our special day. They did the little things like...Recording the speeches given by our children, kept in constant communication throughout the night and even put up with the little kids running around (with a smile on their faces). Couldn't ask for a better representation of what a band should do at our wedding! Great Job

The Crab Shack Band is so amazing! Everyone in the band is extremely talented, the female vocalist is a powerhouse!
They are very accommodating when it comes to the music, they already have a great set list but are more than happy to learn anything you would like to hear! They definitely know how to get a crowd engaged and dance and they have a lot of fun doing it. I would highly recommend The Crab Shack Band to anyone!!

WOW just WOW! The Crab Shack Band is amazing! We LOVED working with them from the beginning and then they truly made our wedding a special and incredibly fun event! Chris was wonderful to work with, very professional and an overall nice guy (as is everyone in the band). Their music is FANTASTIC! Amazing set list that all generations can enjoy and REALLY REALLY GREAT sound! Two female vocalist is awesome and they kill it, but the rest of the band is just as good, great drums and guitars (for example music fans out there- Eric can actually play really well the guitar solo in sweet child of mine what!? never expected that!). Everyone at our wedding couldn't stop raving about the band! The music was great but they were also very interactive with our guests, kept everyone dancing and even let our musician friends get up on stage and play with them! I really can't recommend Crab Shack Band enough! They are a hidden gem that will inevitably be found out and booked every weekend. I would absolutely hire them again!!! Thanks Chris and the Crab Shack Band you guys were an EXCELLENT addition to our wedding!!

Chris and the rest of the Crab Shack Band team are great! They play at our annual 'Sippin' for Seals' charity event and our clients absolutely love them, they also played at one of our clients' weddings in August and there was no space on the dance floor at any time! They provide great entertainment and are very professional. I would absolutely recommend them for your event!
