Great Wedding Band!

I found Dirty Rotten Scoundrels via The Knot after combing through several wedding bands. They completely exceeded our expectations for my son's wedding reception. Honestly I expected them to be good, but they were even better than I expected! Nicolette did an awesome job as the lead singer that night! Michael worked with us on every aspect and answered all of my questions. I will say the dance floor was full all night and many of us did not leave it! I would highly recommend this band if you are looking for a fun night of dancing with a good variety of music.

DRS Rocks!

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels were absolutely phenomenal! We love live music and always knew we wanted a band to play at our wedding, but their performance, professionalism, and ability to keep the dance floor packed, exceeded all of our expectations. We had the pleasure to be able to see them play at some bars and festivals prior to our wedding and fell in love with their sound, variety of music (especially those classic punk-rock songs🤘) and overall stage presence. They made us feel very special by including some personalized shout-outs and dedicated songs to our friends and family as requested. From our first meeting, they were always prepared, on time and professional. Michael (DJ Mike) was an integral part of our wedding reception as he emceed the entire night. We never had to worry about our timeline as he coordinated with our venue and took care of all our sound needs like grand march introductions, cocktail hour and dinner music, and microphone transition for speeches. We fell in love with the band from the first time we saw them play and are proud to say we are official DRS groupies and would highly recommend them to anyone for their wedding or event!

5 stars is not enough - FANTASTIC!!!

There are not words for how amazing DRS is!! From the simple easy planning and great communication to the way they helped simplify our wedding plan, and just made the day perfect. The minute they started playing it was incredible, I don't think we left the dance floor all night. Song after song was just better and better. Incredible presence, vocals, musicians and customization. Check out their Facebook for videos but 15/10 recommend
