Personable + Fun

Not only are they amazing musicians, they are fun to be around. No snooty snoots. Everyone is genuinely kind, eager to please and interact with the guests (when appropriate, no one is getting lost at cocktail hour). While they want to give you exactly what you want, it’s more important to get their best. These professionals know their limits, however few. They are honest about what they can accommodate therefore they can never disappoint. Welcome open communication, there are no dumb questions + they are warm with their recommendations. Highly recommend this gaggle of magical people.

Best in the Biz

We hired Melyssa and Popular Demand for our wedding last August, and from our very first emails and phone call, she was responsive, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. From the start, she was kind, high-energy, and professional, and she made the entire planning process feel seamless and even fun for us.

We spoke with several other bands during our search, but none came close to the level of professionalism, warmth, and musical talent that Popular Demand offered. It was clear from our first conversation that they stood out in every way, and after working with them, we’re confident they are the BEST in the area.

Guest experience was incredibly important to us, especially since our wedding was a destination event. Popular Demand understood how meaningful that was and delivered our vision flawlessly. They incorporated thoughtful touches like the “anniversary dance” and engaged with our guests in such a genuine and joyful way.

Popular Demand has an incredibly versatile taste in music and provided a massive song list for us to choose from, covering every genre from old classics to current hits. Our guests absolutely loved it. They also graciously offered to learn and perform three special songs, separate from their list, just for our wedding. The musicians were beyond talented, and their performance elevated the entire celebration. Our guests are still raving about it! Both young and old were on the dance floor all night long, which was everything we could have hoped for and more.

When our timeline ran about 30 minutes late due to an unrelated venue delay, Melyssa and the rest of the band didn’t hesitate to stay later than scheduled. They played well beyond what was required, without hesitation. I don’t know many other vendors who would be as kind and patient.

Melyssa also collaborated beautifully with our coordinator and other vendors. She was a true team player - respectful, responsive, organized, and solutions-oriented, which helped the day flow effortlessly.

Popular Demand was hands down our favorite vendor and the easiest to work with. Their professionalism, kindness, and talent made a lasting impression. They are the reason our wedding was as great as it was, and we truly could not recommend them more!

Professional to deal with and Excellent performance!

I saw this band at a wedding of a friend. I assisted with the planning, including working with the band. The experience with Popular Demand was completely effortless with no surprises. Booking went quickly and smoothly, no strange requests (i.e. no bowls of green M&Ms needed) and performance day was perfect! Setup and teardown were conducted quickly and unobtrusively. But most importantly: The performance! Perfect in all regards. It's obvious this band has a chemistry most don't. That really comes through. The Band was respectful when appropriate, and really turned the party up when the guests were ready. Couldn't have asked for anything more! Thanks so much!!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
