About
On WeddingWire since 2021
Jess Novak Band is a wedding band based in Syracuse, New York. This is your one-stop shop for wedding music! I offer:
- full DJ and MC services
- solo violin
- solo performance on guitar, piano, violin, voice, percussion
- duo performance with two guitars, violin, two singers (male and female), piano, percussion
- full band performances ranging from four to six pieces (male and female vocals) and a set list that spans classic rock to country to hip-hop
- combinations of any of these! Want violin for your ceremony, a duo for cocktail hour, and a DJ set of non-stop hits to dance to for the reception? You got it!
- check out our schedule and see us before you choose!
Whether you're looking for ceremony music, cocktail hour or reception - I can do it all, bringing you the perfect combination of talents to suit your taste.
Plus, the duo features myself and my fiance. If you want true love songs - we've got them because we've written them for each other. We don't just sing into the mic, we sing across it, and that positive energy will doubtlessly carry into your day.
These combinations offer more than the typical wedding band or duo. We don't just learn some dance tunes - we're musicians who have played together for years, and you can hear the difference. You can also catch us out live on major stages or listen to our original music on Spotify, Amazon, Apple Music, etc. Your guests won't just enjoy a wedding band - they'll enjoy musicians they can see again and again on major stages or local bars. I love that couples we've performed for become friends we see again for years and share in their special moments - often playing future birthday parties, graduations, and anniversaries! You don't just get music at your wedding. You get a lasting connection.
I've played many weddings locally but have also traveled as far as Massachusetts, Florida, and Arizona to complete some amazing days for incredible couples. We are willing to travel!
Let us know what you want to hear!

Want to know me in a nutshell? Here we go:
- I've played violin since I was 7 years old
- I've released 10 original albums since 2013
- I've played weddings from New York to Massachusetts to Arizona to Florida. I am SO willing to travel for you!
- weddings are my favorite events to play becuase people are so appreciative and HAPPY. That energy is infectious. I also love to provide a soundtrack for such an important occassion.
- I play everything from Amy Winehouse to Chris Cornell to TLC to The Little Mermaid to classical. There isn't much I can't bring to your day - and once I add my duo partner or band - anything goes!
- I didn't pursue music for years because I thought I wasn't good enough. Once I did - my career took off quickly and dramatically. I'm a living example that once you set your heart and mind to something - you can do anything if you work hard enough. I bring that positive energy to everything I do and you can bet I'll bring it to you.
I can't wait to be part of your day!
