The BEST! 100/100 would Recommend!

From the very beginning, even before we had signed a contract, The Afterparty Band provided exceptional service. We were able to quickly schedule a virtual meeting where Tristin walked us through everything and was able to answer our many questions for our upcoming wedding. Tristin's professionalism, dedication to her craft and enthusiasm made it an easy decision to move forward with the band. 

During the planning process, Tristin was quick to answer questions as they popped up and checked in when needed. As it got closer to the wedding date, we provided our musical preferences and day of logistics and assured us we were good to go for the big day. 

Fast forward to the reception, The Afterparty Band had EVERYONE on the dance floor by the middle of the first set and that did not stop till the last song was played. This band ROCKED! They truly brought the energy, they sounded amazing and catered to our musical preferences. I highly recommend that you have them learn a song or two of your choice, because they crushed that too! We received so many compliments from our guests how this was the best band they've ever seen, which in turn gave us the wedding party of our dreams. What a memorable night for everyone!
Thank you Afterparty Band!!

Best Band in the Biz!

We have had the pleasure of working with the Afterparty Band for several events and they never disappoint. They are so much fun, bring such great energy, and have performances where the party simply doesn’t stop. As an events industry association president, you want to know that the entertainment you have brought on for your event is going to amaze and leave guests wanting more. We know that whenever the afterparty is at the helm that our guests are guaranteed to have an incredible evening. Tristin and the team are very professional, thorough and detailed. Confidence comes in pre-event communication and coordination, and you always know that they are on top of everything. It makes planning a breeze, and the events a success!

Hire the Afterparty Band!

The Afterparty Band was a 11/10! They completely transformed the room with their energy. They kept the crowd engaged with props and costumes and every single person couldn't wait for the next song! They were professional and organized with their planning, and even learned two songs of our choice for the ceremony, to make it extra special. The positive comments about the Afterparty still haven't stopped days later! My only regret is not having them play longer!

A Party Talked About for Days

As a planner in the Greater Seattle Area, I work with a lot of vendors, and The Afterparty Band truly stands out in the best way possible. From the very beginning, their communication was timely, clear, and incredibly thorough — which, as a planner, makes such a huge difference. They were organized, proactive, and always on top of details throughout the entire planning process.

On event day, they absolutely delivered. The energy, hype, and liveliness they bring to a crowd is unmatched. They know how to read the room, keep the momentum going, and turn a great party into an unforgettable one. The dance floor stayed packed, the vibes were high, and guests were talking about the band long after the night ended.

If you’re planning an event and want a band that is professional, fun, high-energy, and an absolute joy to work with, you should 100% hire The Afterparty Band. They are a dream vendor and a guaranteed crowd-pleaser — I can’t wait to work with them again!

Amazing, high-energy band!

I recently worked with The Apterparty for a large corporate event, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. They were prompt, communicative, and flexible throughout the planning process, and truly went the extra mile to enhance the overall vibe. During the event, they were an absolute blast—engaging with the crowd and getting everyone into the party mood. Highly recommended, and I will definitely be working with them again in the future! - Senior Event Coordinator, The Ruins, Landmark Event Co

An dancing attendee’s perspective :)

I was an attendee at a party in Sept 2025 where Afterparty was the band. Oh my goodness! What a genius and well orchestrated performance! Truly a PERFORMANCE. The transitions from song to song were surprising, creative and seamless, and I only stopped dancing to rest a bit because I was grooving so much! Very impressed! If you want a band for a dynamic and fun crowd who wants to have a blast on the dance floor, this band is IT.
