50 th wedding anniversary

We had a wonderful event. The band and it’s individual musicians all stood out as talented performers. The mixture of sound, brass , drums, strings all with excellent voices made our night one to remember. Easy to work with , very flexible and adapting thru the evening. Extremely happy. “Oh What A Night”!!!

Adduci Wedding Band Experience

Jim and the Band Sundance were by far the best bang for your buck in the area. They were affordable, easy to work with and our guests raved about how much fun they had with a live band playing. The band has an immense list of songs to play and will learn new songs you request. The band sounded great and played the entire night. We were more than impressed and Angela took plenty of videos and pictures on the dance floor late into the night which worked wonders as our photographers had left by 9pm. Jim and Angela sent us a flash drive with all the photos and videos. We highly recommend The Band Sundance for anyone with a wedding in the future!

Sundance Was The Best Wedding Band

At Brittney and Rob’s wedding at Idlewild CC, we had 200+ people, and let me tell you how we had nearly all of them stay and dance the night away until the end. Sundance learned soMe new tunes, played along our guest singer, Tommy Panici, and they went together so we’ll on some classic favorites, like they played regularly. Sundance even had Rob and Brittney come up to play alongside them for a couple dances, which everyone really enjoyed. They had Angela even videotape from the stage/band’s view, and around the room, which gave us pictures and shots that no photographer could have captured of everyone having so much fun. Jim was so easy to work with as far as booking the day, discussing just what we were looking for, and they can play almost any song you can dance to, both slow and fast. They were the ultimate professional band for the kid’s Big Wedding, and many complimented us for letting them enjoy the day with such great entertainment. Will be surprised if we don’t see them at a future family wedding or at any event in the area that might have entertainment. Their appearance was so fitting for a CC, and a family wedding. Talk about a value. Felt we had to tip them well as they were the icing on the cake to a perfect day.

An Awesome Band For Our Reception

We were so pleased with the Band Sundance! They sounded great! Jim, the band leader, was super responsive and easy to work with. We had requested a few songs for our special dances. The band learned the songs and then, later in the night, surprised us with more songs from one of our favorite artists. Our guests loved the band. We consistently had a large group dancing throughout the night. It was an absolute pleasure having them at our reception. They were professional, courteous, and a ton of fun. Oh, and Angela videotaped the reception and took pictures throughout the evening. It was awesome to get videos/photos after the reception. A great reminder of all of the fun!

Incredible bang for your buck

These guys were top notch for a cut rate price. They learned new songs that we requested, and played them with perfect execution and energy. Jim was overly communicative, was able to audible on the spot and provide tunes for the ceremony even though I asked him about it only 2 days before the wedding. Unexpectedly they had myself and my wife up on stage for 4 songs playing along and singing (helps to have some alcohol first), and even had the participants cheering us on. They took photos and sent us the entire roll only a few days after the wedding, and honestly the photos were so professionally done that we are framing a few of them ahead of the photographer that we hired! This group's as professional as it gets; well worth having them at whatever event you are hosting.

Best wedding band in the midwest!

We cannot thank The Band Sundance enough for the spectacular performance they gave us for our wedding. Jim was very easy to work with and made sure every song we wanted was played whether it was for cocktail hour, dinner or dancing. This band is extremely interactive with the crowd and can get the whole room up and moving. They let us (the bride and groom) play some instruments and sing on the microphone which is not very common, but was AWESOME in our eyes! Another great thing about this band is they take pictures and videos of your reception so you have all the fun memories captured which means they go above and beyond for their customers. I highly recommend this band to anyone who's looking to throw a good party!

Best band ever!

Jim, Angie, & The rest of The Band Sundance were absolutely phenomenal! They were SO quick to respond to us each and every time we had a question or concern. They even learned some new songs for our Father-Daughter dance, Mother-Son dance, and for our first dance as a married couple! They sounded fantastic too! I can't tell you how many people approached us during and after the wedding and commented on how amazing Sundance was and how they really enjoyed the music, the interaction, and all the fun the band brought to the evening! They interacted with us, our bridal party (even working them into some songs!), and with the guests, which really made for a special evening for us and our guests. They were always polite, on time, and incredibly professional! To top it off, Angie even captured much of the ceremony, toasts, and reception for us on camera/video, so we have even more memories than what the photographer could capture on his own! Having the Band Sundance play at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made planning our wedding!

The band Sundance did an amazing job at our wedding! I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a band for their wedding! From the beginning, the leader of the band, Jim, was so easy to work with! From learning new songs that we wanted played at our wedding to even capturing photos/videos after our photographer left, he made sure it was taken care of! They sounded amazing and had all of our guest up on their feet the whole night!!!

The Band Sundance comes highly recommended from me. The value added they provide includes; video service, emcee service, willing to learn new songs and the ability to really get the party started. You won't find a better group of musicians. Their sound is the best. There is nothing like going from Bruno Mars to Chicago with the Sundance Horns. Vocals are the best with Jody and Angela fronting the band but then you include the guys singing and it's unbelievable. Jim is great to work with and is really accommodating to make your day even more special.
