Best decision!

We had the Brass Animals at our daughter's Boston wedding. They came for the last half hour of the reception and took over from the DJ and then as the ballroom was closing up, they led our reception guests to the after party with an awesome Second Line parade! They played for another half hour with the Second line and then at the hotel bar. It was SUCH a hightlight and a perfect way to cap off the night. Ben Lack was a great band leader! We will be talking about our time dancing and singing to Sweet Caroline and parading to the perfect NOLA classics with the Brass Animals. Thank you, Brass Animals! It was everything we'd hoped!

Worth every penny!

We hired Ben, and the rest of the band to play at our wedding and it was one of the best decisions we made. Ben quickly became one of our favorite vendors, with his accommodating and flexible demeanor. We had a few hiccups because of the California fires, where our venue was changed 3 days prior to our wedding, Ben was so kind to send us a bottle of bubbles with a sweet note, to raise our spirits in the middle of a stressful time. Wedding day, the whole band was on time, and very professional, and they became one of our wedding highlights! All of our guests loved having them there, and they were engaging and fun. I would hire them all over again, and I definitely, highly recommend them! You will not regret it.
