Great, well-rounded band!!

I definitely recommend the Blue Tones for your wedding!! They did a great job keeping everyone on the dance floor the whole night, and played a great array of music for us! Their song list is huge and they did a great learning our first dance song!! Also they are very professional and answered all of our questions and rolled through multiple date changes. Just a great experience all around!

Just all around awesome!!

The Blue Tones were amazing and made the reception incredible and memorable!! 10/10. From the mellow jazz during the dinner time to the poppin' tunes that got the whole guests dancing and singing afterward, every single guest had nothing but good things to say about the band. Their attires were impeccable and stylish and their music classy and hip. One of my family members even got up and sang with them, it was just unbelievable! They were happy to cover songs that were important to us, as well as add other songs that were similar in style. They were very accommodating and easy-to-work. Thank you for the unforgettable memories, Blue Tones!

Rockin Reception!

The Nashville Blue Tones were so fun at our wedding reception!!! They kept the party going and everyone loved them and are still talking about how great the music was. Everyone danced and sang for 5 hours. Ray was so easy to work with and their song list was super long for us to pick from. I feel like they truly enjoyed playing as much as we enjoyed dancing! So many instruments and multiple singers that cover country, soul, rock n roll, old school, etc.

This band was awesome. We had a 7 piece band and we were blown away with the quality of music and professionalism. Since you never know how a band will sound when you pick your songs, we had requested the recorded versions of Van Morrison - Someone like you, Louis Armstrong - what a wonderful world, and Nat and Natalie King Cole - Unforgettable. They ended up doing them live and I had to double take because I thought it was the recorded version. They sounded brilliant. The guy who did Louis Armstrong was SPOT on and we wanted him to sing all night! They played a great variety of music and everyone had a blast. People came up to us and told us how great the band was which was so satisfying to hear! Thank you so much for making our night so fun!

Blue Tone Music was the band for my wedding reception and they were FANTASTIC!!! They played all of the music we wanted them to play and kept the dance floor busy the entire night. We had a crowd full of music industry people who are hard to please and everyone there made a point to tell me how great the band was that night. It was an unforgettable reception and the band made it even more special. Thank you so much! You guys rock!!!

YOU HAVE TO USE THEM! They are amazing. They knew every song I requested and have numerous people in the band who sing to provide a little something different each time. They are very easy to work with and so polite the day of the wedding.

Amazing! They are so talented and create an atmosphere for the event. The Blue Tones played our reception with a 6 piece band and it was spectacular. We had Big Band Music and 40s-50s music mostly and we couldn't have asked for more. It was like going back to that era they were so good. My husband says that they are what really made the reception go over the top. I can't say enough good things about them. They were so easy to work with and tailored the music/musicians to our needs.

Excellent! The musical director, David, was so helpful in planning out the music for the ceremony and reception. He really listened to my ideas and helped create the perfect music selections. Everyone at the wedding raved about the music! The band was so fun, and they did a great job of playing the songs I had specficially requested they learn as well as playing requests during the reception.
