No matter what music you're looking for - ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner or reception - I can offer you a one-stop shop for everything. And this includes all the bells and whistles: lights, fog machine, full emcee duties and even help planning the flow of your night if you're looking for a little extra help.
The duo features myself and my husband. If you want true love songs - we've got them becuase 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.
Our couples also love that they can come see us live for years to come following the wedding! After working with you, we hope to become friends and see you again whether it's out at a venue or to share in more big moments as we often play future birthday, parties, graduations and anniversaries. You don't just get music at your wedding. You get a lasting connection.
We play many weddings locally, but have also traveled as far as Massachusetts, Florida and Arizona to perform some amazing days for incredible couples. We are willing to travel!

Message vendorReviews of Jess Novak Band
Review summary
Multiple reviewers highly recommend the Jess Novak Band for weddings. The band is praised for their exceptional performance, accommodating nature, and great communication throughout the planning process. Guests were impressed with their renditions of songs and the energy and charisma they brought to the event. The band's ability to play live music as well as DJ added to their appeal. Overall, reviewers had a wonderful experience with the band and highly recommend them for wedding celebrations.
Congratulations, your search for a band is now done!
We came and saw you play just to confirm, and of course that was an easy decision - you were even better live! We, again, came to see the whole band perform, and you subtly made us feel special, and rocked out - even better than the first time. Your ease and willingness to work with our vision, make quick adjustments, and all along the way communicate impeccably were so comforting to the stress that is wedding planning. We truly meant it when we said “we trust you, rock out, riff out, play some originals, play some stuff you think would be great” and you did not disappoint.
The requests and renditions that you created - we have a few videos of them - and we can’t stop watching them! Your new trumpet player was perfect - keep him around! Anthony is so friggin cool, and so talented - personally, I will never forget his final solo, it really was all I ever wanted! I feel like Ben and I should probably be best friends; his voice was amazing! Really, the whole band just absolutely crushed every aspect of the performance - seriously, we could probably accurately say that 50 people made it a point to come tell us how incredible you guys were - and that is exactly what we were wishing for!
Jess, you were the perfect band for us, and probably the perfect band for any wedding, and we don’t think this thank you is enough, but we did our best! We can’t wait to come see many more shows, we can’t wait to call you up when we visit Syracuse and take you guys out to dinner, and you will always be welcome at our home! We love you, and thank you!

Team
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!
