Professional, amazing selection of songs -‘s kept the crowd engaged entire night. The dance floor was packed from the first song until that bitter end. If you want amazing music, incredible energy and ultimate professionalism, this is your band!!

Best Decision!!!

Booking the Spectrum band was THE BEST decision we made for our wedding. Sean did an outstanding job communicating with us and helping with any questions we had. From initial outreach to the show during the reception, it was truly a first class experience working with them. We gave them some song suggestions and then they took care rest and knew just what the crowd wanted to make sure every age group could enjoy the music! The band was AMAZING and was absolutely what set our wedding apart from others. Many of our guests said they had so much fun dancing and our dancefloor was packed with energy the entire night! If i could give them 10 stars I would, I could not recommend this band enough!

Winter wedding

Wonderful band, very very professional. We had a snow storm and they showed up. They traveled over an hour to get to the venue and never once questioned about not coming knowing the weather was going to get bad. They made the reception fun. Would highly recommend them......If I could five them 10 stars I would.

10/10 Recommend!

We had the best experience with Spectrum Band. We had seen them at a friend’s wedding (where we had so much fun), and decided to work with them for ours. Sean was so responsive from the start. We had a bit of a complicated room flip in a unique venue space, and these guys knocked it out of the park. They handled it all with professionalism and ease making us worry free on the big day. And not to mention… the dance floor was ELECTRIC all night long thanks to their talented group. Thank you so much, we could not have asked for a better band to be a part of our special day.

Great Wedding Band

Spectrum Band was great from planning throughout and delivered a fun party experience at the reception! Starting with the Spectrum Trio at the cocktail hour and the Band keeping the dance floor going during the entire reception. It was the first time they played at the Hawthorn venue and even played some ABBA songs for the first time which were a hit with the crowd. We received positive feedback from many guests. Sean was easy to work with and very responsive throughout the process! Highly recommend Spectrum Band and Trio!

You cannot go wrong with Spectrum!

We had the absolute pleasure of having Spectrum play at our wedding, and they completely exceeded our expectations. From the very beginning, they were incredibly easy to work with — professional, responsive, and invested in making our day special. Sean knows how to command a room for speeches and was so patient in accommodating a special father daughter dance. There was never a lull on the dance floor even during the band's quick break. So many of our guests have commented on how fantastic the band was and how much fun they had. Spectrum created such a fun, joyful and unforgettable atmosphere.

Spectrum Band rocks!

We saw Spectrum Band play for the first time at our friends wedding and we knew we had to have them for our wedding reception. Our first reception venue we had booked canceled on us which was devastating. One of the first people to contact me about it was Sean with the band letting us know that he was here for us and wanted to make sure we knew that! We appreciated that so much. Luckily our new venue still had our date open and we were good to go.

They rocked the house at our reception!! We got so many compliments about how great the band was. We can't thank Spectrum Band enough for making our reception so wonderful!

June Wedding

Sean and his band are fantastic to work with. We had help from Sean the entire year leading up to our reception to make sure everything went perfectly and it did! Sean is very responsive and always answered our questions thoughtfully. Our dance floor was packed the entire night of our reception and that is definitely due to the incredible band!! I could not recommend Spectrum Band enough! Thank you guys again!!!

"I had the distinct pleasure last night of photographing the Spectrum Band during their performance at the Coronado Ballroom in St. Louis, Mo. The music was absolutely superb, the atmosphere electric, and I had a front row seat! Spectrum Band is a professional 9-piece variety dance band that specializes in wedding receptions, corporate parties and public events in the St. Louis, Mo area; and, they have been doing it for over 20 years. I have to say; when I say they are good, I mean they are good! - As in REALLY REALLY GOOD! I could not recommend them highly enough for any event, especially weddings. Tim Callihan, the band leader, drummer and one of the original members, and I had been corresponding for several weeks on the subject of weddings and receptions. During the course of those conversations, Tim mentioned that they were needing some updated images for the website, and wanted to know if I was interested in shooting them. As it turned out, we had the time available and I have a policy to never turn down the opportunity to work with the best; and that is exactly what Spectrum Band is, the best. Not to mention, watching them work under the wonderful and electric atmosphere of the Coronado Ballroom, which is one of the premier wedding reception venues in the entire Midwest. --- Event: Fundraising event for the Asthma & Allergy Foundation held at The Coronado" - March 10, 2012

We are big fans of Spectrum Band. If you want a great band with great vocals and brass, this is the band for you. They are great to work with and have many years of experience. They are not just one singer with one sound. You will love how they get your guests up to dance and celebrate your Wedding with you.
