Hire this band!!

This is by far the best wedding band you will find! Super talented, professional, VERY easy to work with from pre-contract to the conclusion of the event! Worked with us after original wedding postponed due to covid. The selections of music for the wedding was incredible! Everyone left with sore feet from dancing the entire night. No kidding!!
We scouted this band at a community event where they played mostly line dance music & I was concerned. Not an issue- they can play EVERYTHING! If you go to hear them, keep in mind, they are likely playing a genre that was requested.
We opted to rent a stage for them, was not required- but worth it! Sound was phenomenal. 100% we will hire again! Under priced for a band this good, this size!

Best Decision I Made

If you are looking for a band for your wedding, anniversary, or any event I highly recommend Coming Up Brass. Having them apart of my wedding was one of the best decisions I made. Rather than having to pick from a set list, they took the time to learn all the first dance songs my husband and I wanted. It’s been a few months since my wedding and I still have guests talk about how great they were!

Magical unforgettable experience

Coming Up Brass could not have been more perfect for our wedding. From the start, they were professional and quick with responses. They played our first dance song, harvest moon by Neil Young by request. My husband and I took dance lessons for our first dance and our timing was never great but Stu and Guy were more than accommodating when we requested they keep playing until they saw “the lift”. I cannot count how many people came up to us during the night raving over how good the band was. They made our night so special. Highly recommend!! Thank you!!

Great Music, Great People!

Coming Up Brass was amazing for our reception! We didn't know exactly what music we wanted them to play, we just wanted something fun! CUB provided us with lists of suggestions for introductions, first dances, etc, and that took a lot of pressure off of us. Any special request you have, they would probably accommodate! They were also happy to swap out songs from their set list if we asked. From Adele to Stevie Wonder, they do it all! CUB played a light set for our cocktail hour and then 2 full sets during our reception. They also made announcements for us for speeches, cake cutting, the send off, etc. They were energetic, got everyone dancing, they had had a great emcee, and were so kind and friendly. Wonderful people and wonderful music!

Coming Up Brass leads a great party!

Coming Up Brass performed for our daughter’s wedding reception and it was outstanding! Such a professional presentation. The wide variety of musical selections, talent of all the musicians and the energy from the singers in leading the show helped us all have a wonderful time. These folks are perfect for an event that has a wide variety of age groups and musical tastes. So much fun! An excellent choice for any special occasion.

Coming Up Brass Delivers

We booked Coming Up Brass for our wedding reception never had a minute of regret. They communicated with us in a timely manner. We couple of special requests they accommodated. My husband is Jewish and wanted the traditional Hava Nagila played during the evening. It wasn't in their repertoire, but they mastered it and it went perfectly at our celebration. The bandleader Guy worked out with our caterer and event space what the band needed over the evening. Numerous family and friends attending commented on how good the band and the vocalists were. We agreed. Best of all, they played a huge part in making the evening fun, celebratory and special. That was what we wanted, and they completely delivered. We would recommend without reservation and use them again should there be a need.

Coming up Brass were amazing! Guy was very easy to work with as was Kyle who provided ceremony music for our wedding. One of our top comments from guests has been how great the music and dancing were. They kept everyone on the dance floor all night and we loved it!

Would give them 10 stars if possible!! They are so good and really easy to work with. They work with you to customize your song list and band number/ensemble. Me and my sister both used them for our weddings and the exceeded expectations both times! Highly recommend.

Such a great experience!

Guy was so easy to work with! He even came to the venue to do a walk through with my wedding planner and I to make sure that the layout would work for the band! I could not say enough excellent things about Coming Up Brass! All of our friends still talk about how much fun the music and dancing was at our wedding! Great vocals, great horns, great music, easy to work with, great price. Hire them!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
