This band MADE our wedding!

When we started wedding planning, my husband and I were debating getting married in Ireland or in the states. We ultimately decided to get married in the US but had a goal to make it the most Irish wedding we could. The first step was finding a band stateside that could play Irish tunes and keep the dance floor packed. By a miracle, my husband found McLean Avenue Band…we booked them for our wedding in Napa on July 6th and they did not disappoint!

McLean Avenue Band lifted the roof off the building! They brought incredible energy, talent, and charisma to the night, keeping the dance floor packed from start to finish. In the beginning, they had the whole crowd on their feet before we ever entered the room. Padraig had taken the time to find out what county the majority of guests were coming from. During dinner, they played Rose of Tralee and My Lovely Rose of Clare. Their mix of traditional Irish tunes and modern favorites had guests of all ages up and dancing the entire night. The fiddle and saxophone added even more flare. They even had my American college friends on the floor for Rock the Boat.

So many of our friends and family still tell us how amazing our wedding was and a LARGE part of that was thanks to McLean Avenue Band. Their ability to read the crowd was spot on. They truly made our celebration unforgettable. If you're looking for a band that guarantees a lively, unforgettable atmosphere, look no further than McLean Avenue Band. Highly, highly recommend!

I highly recommend booking McLean Avenue Band for your wedding!

They are incredibly talented and made our reception an absolute blast – we were dancing all night and even a month later our guests are raving about “how great the band was.” Beyond their talent, Padraig was so easy to work with and helped to set the tone for the whole day with exactly the music and style we were looking for from ceremony to reception. He took any stress out of the process completely, and it’s clear that he genuinely cares about helping you have the best day imaginable. Book them!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
