Wedding Was A Live Concert

We were blown away with the Next Faze band from my son's wedding on Saturday night. It was like we were at a concert. One band member was better than the other. The lead singers were off the charts. The energy, the range! The brass section was exactly what we all had hoped for. The party went from zero to 100 at the first song. Literally. The first song played, the dance floor was full and it stayed that way til the end. ANDDDD a highlight was you guys letting our friend who is a professional drummer play the drums for a few songs. We were overwhelmed with love and gratitude. We wish the band never stopped. Days later, friends and family are still talking about the music and energy. ANDDD they were all so nice. TYTYTY

The BEST Wedding Band

The whole process with working with Faze 4 and the Metropolis band was PHENOMENAL. The dance floor was jam packed all night , the music was amazing, and the band is simply the best. I highly highly highly recommend the Metropolis band!!!!!! 1000000/10 and the nicest most talented musicians! The whole night all my guests kept telling me I had the best wedding band they have ever heard. It’s a true testament to their work!

Best band!! Best night!! 10/10 recommend!!

Our wedding was one month ago, and we finally have the time to write the well-deserved review for our incredible band! We hired the Michael Kane Band of Faze 4 Orchestras, and they were absolutely amazing from start to finish. From the keyboard and acoustic guitar at our ceremony, to the keyboard and saxophone during cocktail hour, to the 10-piece band at our reception, they didn’t miss a beat.

Our friends and family love to dance, and the band brought the energy all night long, keeping the dance floor packed from beginning to end. The Michael Kane Band helped make our wedding a truly magical night that we’ll remember forever.

Bob Forman, the company owner, event producer, and bandleader of the Original Faze 4 Band, was also incredible to work with throughout our 14-month planning process. He is so kind, patient, and accommodating, and it’s clear how much he loves what he does and how committed he is to making his clients happy.

Our bandleader, Michael, is unbelievably talented and understood exactly the vision and energy we wanted for our wedding and brought it all to life.

My sister got married over four years ago and also hired the Michael Kane Band, so choosing them for our wedding was a no-brainer. They exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t recommend them more highly. 10/10, they are the best!

Simply the Best!

From our first call with Bob, through the last note of the reception, with perfect ceremony and cocktail hour music as well, everything was easy and fun and stress-free. And the music was better than we could have ever imagined. The keyboard player created a beautiful atmosphere for the ceremony and cocktails, and then the full band brought incredible energy to dinner and the dance party. Their talent is amazing - and they kept the dance floor full all night! Our guests absolutely loved them! We’re so grateful they were part of our wedding and would recommend them wholeheartedly to any couple looking for a band that’s not only outstanding, but makes the whole celebration feel unforgettable.

Amazing!

We just had Scott Yanney for our wedding in August and his band was exceptional. Our guests have asked us numerous times what band it was because they want to hire them now too! They read the room very well and played all dancing and upbeat songs. They were amazing!!! We were so happy to have them. Thank you Scott and the rest of the band members!

Unforgettable Wedding Thanks to The Hitz Squad

The Hitz Squad was truly one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the very beginning, we knew we were in great hands but they still managed to exceed every expectation we had.

Their talent, energy, and professionalism were absolutely outstanding. Every live performance was incredible, and they created an atmosphere that had our guests on the dance floor from the first song until the very last. We've heard countless compliments from family and friends.

The Hitz Squad has an amazing ability to read the crowd and keep the momentum going all night long. They made every moment feel special and brought so much excitement and joy to our celebration.

Bob, the band leader, Scott, and The Hitz Squad completely surpassed our expectations. We are so grateful they were such a memorable part of our wedding day.

My Daughters Wedding

We first saw The Hitz Squad perform at a wedding in 2024 and immediately knew we wanted this unique band/DJ combination for our own daughters wedding.

From the very beginning, Bob was responsive, professional, and genuinely interested in getting to know us and our musical tastes. He guided us through every detail, from our must-play and do-not-play lists to the special moments throughout the reception. We gave him a unique challenge by requesting that many traditional wedding favorites be left off the playlist, and The Hitz Squad embraced it completely.

On the wedding day, they exceeded every expectation. The dance floor was packed all night thanks to their incredible energy, musicianship, and perfectly curated set list. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how amazing they were.

Beyond their talent, every member of The Hitz Squad was a pleasure to work with. They helped create the best night of our lives, and we couldn't be more grateful.

If you're considering this unique band/DJ experience, don't hesitate—hire them. You won't regret it. And definitely add the bongo player!

The BEST Band Ever!

So worth the investment! Our guests cannot stop raving about how incredible the band was. We used Faze4 Michael Kane Band, and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. They played the perfect mix of wedding classics and modern hits that kept the dance floor packed all night.

I had mentioned in my planning questionnaire that I love country music, and they truly delivered, incorporating songs that fit our style while still keeping everyone engaged. The energy, talent, and professionalism of the entire band were outstanding.

One thing that really stood out was how attentive Mike was throughout the night. Our venue had to make a few adjustments to the timeline and schedule, and he handled every change seamlessly. He was constantly checking in with my husband and me, making sure we were comfortable and ready before starting each special moment. His communication and professionalism made the entire evening feel effortless and allowed us to simply enjoy our wedding.

If you're considering a live band for your wedding, I cannot recommend them enough. They were a huge part of making our day unforgettable!

Metropolis brought the house down!

From the moment we first connected with Bob and his team, it was clear that Metropolis was going to exceed our expectations in every possible way. Mingo, the bandleader, was nothing short of extraordinary. Not only did the band deliver an outstanding musical performance, but Mingo was like having a second day-of coordinator, ensuring that every aspect of the evening ran seamlessly. His meticulous attention to detail, professionalism, and proactive approach kept the energy high and the celebration moving effortlessly from start to finish.

The performance itself was spectacular. Every song was executed flawlessly, and the dance floor was packed all night long. The band's energy was infectious, and their ability to read the room and keep guests engaged was truly impressive. Our guests are still talking about the music and have repeatedly told us it was the best wedding band they have ever heard.

We are beyond grateful for everything Metropolis did to make our wedding so special. Their talent, professionalism, and commitment to creating an unforgettable experience made all the difference. Metropolis is more than just a band—they are an essential ingredient for a perfect celebration. We cannot recommend them highly enough.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
