Life of the party!

Before any other decision we made about our wedding, we knew we wanted a live band, and The Bishops were exactly what we hoped for. They kept the party going after dinner and got just about every guest out on the dance floor. Bryan was a delight to work with on both the business and creative sides. He happily took requests for the setlist no matter how vague or specific and there's nothing we would've wanted different.

On top of being a pleasure to work with, these are some talented musicians! The multiple vocalists made for a truly dynamic night of music, and we were so glad we added the trumpet and sax too.

Your search for a band is over. Hire The Bishops!

Best band ever!!

We already knew that The Bishops were the THE BEST BAND EVER, but they blew our minds and our guests have been raving about them for days!! Besides all of the incredible talent of each and every band member, they can sing ANY song across every genre and it is played and sung perfectly. We have never heard a band with such crossover capability! And on top of that, they are so friendly, easy to work with, they learned a couple of songs we wanted played including for our 1st dance, they know how to keep the party going, and they even surprised the bride by inviting the groom up on stage to sing!! We, and all of our guests, danced the entire night and were told many times over The Bishops are the best band they have ever heard. We are forever grateful for the memories. Thank you Bryan and The Bishops!! You literally rock!!
