Hiring The Free Downloads was hands down one of the best decisions (if not THE best decision) we made for our wedding day. They were absolutely incredible to work with and are outstanding performers. From the start, communicating with The Free Downloads was easy and simple; they were kind, friendly, flexible, and professional throughout the entire process--and even seamlessly accommodated a last minute change just days before our wedding. And their performance was just absolutely fabulous. Every single song was an 11/10. While at the wedding and after, so many of our guests constantly kept telling us how amazing the band was...and I know I'll be talking about them for the rest of my life. Plus, their energy: not only can you see it when they perform, but The Free Downloads did an amazing job MC-ing for us. I truly could not recommend them more. If you love live music and you want the best of the best, hire The Free Downloads.

We loved having TFDs at our wedding. This was my second experience with them, as they played my sister's wedding back in 2015. They were great then, and even better the second time around! George and Sheree, the two band members who do the planning with you, are super easy and nice to work with. On the day, they come with a lot of energy, flexibility and professionalism. We had to make a few last minute changes to the schedule and location and they were able to adjust to everything, stick with the schedule and put on a great event.
Even though I'm sure they have done hundreds of weddings, they make you feel like you, your friends and family are the best crowd they've ever played for. Our guests were blown away and can't stop telling us how much fun they had. The band is very talented (Sheree doing Lizzo covers, wow!) and play a great mix of songs for people of all generations. They will learn a song or two at your request (in advance) and did a very sweet rendition of Harvest Moon for us that meant so much to the groom's parents. They charge a fair price for their level of talent and service and are absolutely worth every penny. We appreciate them so much!

TL;DR: hiring The Free Downloads is the best decision you could make for your wedding. Guaranteed!

As a former college musician, live music was at the top of the list of “must have’s” for the wedding. And simply put, I could not recommend The Free Downloads Band ANY higher. These guys were absolutely, 100%, no questions asked PHENOMENAL.

They were easy to work with in the planning process and were even better the night of! They had the whole crowd dancing for the entire night (people even got up to dance between apps and the main course). Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how great the band was and it was truly heartbreaking when they had to finish the set at the end of the evening.

The entire band is obviously excellent, but we have to give a special shout-out to Sheree who, despite having a conflict with our wedding date, changed around her whole schedule so she could be with us to celebrate. Not to mention her killer pipes :) And another special shout-out to Ty, the bass player, who helped shuttle some guests back to the hotel after our wedding when they missed the bus.

All in all, I couldn’t be happier about The Free Downloads, and I know we’ll be booking them again next time we need to throw a killer party!

To the band: Thank you guys so much — you’re the absolute best and we love you! - Mike & Abiah

The Free Downloads played our wedding on 4/8/2022 at Glen Manor in Portsmouth RI and 2 weeks later- our families, friends, my husband and I, are STILL talking about how incredible the music, dancing and energy was! The band has a wonderful way of mixing personality in with performance without being cheesy. Planning on our part was minimal but results were incredible and tailored to our taste. It felt like a concert designed solely for our crowd. We can't recommend The Free Downloads enough- we are fans for life!

The Free Downloads played at our wedding on Block Island on 08/07/21 and they were incredible! Their talent & energy truly made our wedding reception unforgettable! We had to postpone our wedding due to the pandemic, but throughout it all the band was so flexible and accommodating. Planning a wedding on an island comes with additional challenges, but they were easy to work with in securing their accommodations and ferry reservations (i.e. they did it all). George was professional, responsive and supportive. After the wedding, they even DJ’d music at the after party and kept the energy pumping into the night. Our family & friends are still raving about how fantastic the band was - 100% recommend!

The band was amazing! From coordination to performance they made the wedding the celebration we had dreamed of. They are very flexible and easy to coordinate with. Every guest commented on how amazing the music was! I would highly recommend hiring The Free Downloads for any event!

Entertainment for our wedding was a top priority for us. We hired the Free Downloads for our wedding, after seeing them perform at Yellow Kittens bar on Block Island. We knew a few songs in we had to have them! While COVID delayed our wedding, it was well worth the wait! George was so professional and handled all our adjustments (even some last minute)c questions and song requests with ease. We used the band for ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and of course dancing. Our guests RAVED about the band in all aspects of their performance, and still do months later. We had the best time dancing all night long - all our guests from the youngest to our 91 year old grandfather. Not only is the band phenomenal musically, but they have FUN and being an amazing energy to a wedding. Make the easiest decision of wedding planning by booking the Free Downloads!

We hired The Free Downloads at the recommendation of a family friend, and oh my god it was the best decision. First of all, the music was great. The band has fabulous energy. After we filled out their (detailed and well organized!) google doc of our requests, do-not-plays, and general order of events, they did an amazing job reading the room and choosing the perfect next song. Our guests from every generation were dancing ALL NIGHT. They also handled our ceremony music and sound, which was also spectacular. Thank you Free Downloads!!

The Free Downloads are INCREDIBLE! Their talent & energy truly made our wedding reception unforgettable! Due to the pandemic, my husband and I changed our wedding date as well as state and venue but throughout it all the band was so flexible and accommodating. George was professional, responsive and supportive. They are great at playing off the vibe of the crowd and kept our dance floor packed the entire night. Our family & friends are still raving about how fantastic the band was - 100% recommend!

The Free Downloads played our wedding on 06/26/21, they were incredible. Leading up to the wedding, George was extremely helpful with giving suggestions in regards to timing of events and was very to receptive to special requests that we made. As for the performance at the wedding, they were energetic and charismatic. The band was able to get everybody onto the dance floor and keep everyone engaged throughout the duration of the night. Since our wedding, we have had numerous friends and family members who have been raving about the Free Downloads, many of whom say the band was the best at any wedding they had been to. We highly recommend the band to any couple looking for a fun, enthusiastic, and upbeat band to bring a great time to their wedding. -Val and Tim
