What is the story behind The Heartbeats?

The Heartbeats are a high-energy live wedding and event band specializing in packed dance floors, crowd interaction, and unforgettable celebrations in Detroit, MI, and beyond. With music spanning everything from classic rock, Motown, and disco to 2000s throwbacks, country, and today’s biggest pop hits, we build our performances around one thing: keeping your guests dancing.

Services Offered

Featuring multiple lead vocalists, professional sound, in-ear monitoring, tracks, and live instrumentation, and a fully synchronized light show, The Heartbeats bring the energy and production of a concert while still making your wedding feel personal. We love getting the crowd involved, taking requests, interacting with guests, and creating those spontaneous moments that make every wedding different. Our setlists can be customized around your tastes, whether you want timeless classics, modern dance music, rock anthems, country favorites, or a little bit of everything. We can also help provide music throughout your wedding day, with options for ceremony and cocktail hour, including solo piano, acoustic groups, violin, DJ services, and additional live-music configurations. From the first song to the final encore, our goal is to make your wedding feel less like a performance and more like one huge celebration.

The Colo Wedding

The Heartbeats were INCREDIBLE!! If you are looking for a band with fun energy that keeps the party going, they are your people! No one left the dance floor all night when they were playing. Zack is super easy to work with and made sure our every request was met. We could not recommend them enough!!!!
