About

On WeddingWire since 2016

Next live show- Friday, December 1st, 2023 7-10pm at Red Lion NYC! The Last Nites are a music lovers party band serving NYC, Brooklyn, Queens, New Jersey, Connecticut upstate New York and just about anywhere else! We play a refreshing mix of songs that stray from the same wedding band standards that you have been hearing for years. That said, you will still be singing and dancing along until your feet are sore. We are a guitar and horn driven band from the NYC area that has 20 years of experience making dance floors jump from note one to the final encore. Featuring musicians that play or have played with Bright Eyes, Sharon Jones and The Dap Kings, and the Duke Ellington Orchestra, The Last Nites perform music with passion and care. We have this band because we all love playing music with each other, and it shows. We are like no other wedding band for all the best reasons.

We work with each couple to determine what style of music will best meet their taste and wedding venue. To-be-weds may hire us to provide music during their ceremony, cocktail hour, reception, and during breaks in proceedings. We also provide sound and lighting equipment for their performances. We're determined to provide tunes from the heart to raise the excitement at wedding festivities.

Book The Last Nites!

Waylan and the whole band were an absolute pleasure to work with, and are the coolest group of people you will ever meet. They are so professional and responsive, and Waylan took a lot of time to get to know what we wanted and really read the room the night of the wedding to keep things on pace. Guests of all ages were on the dance floor all night long, as their incredibly talented group played the perfect variety of songs for our group without much direction from us at all. Their versions of our first-dance songs were awesome, and they made some suggestions that we never considered but made a huge difference, like shortening one of the first-dance songs so our guests wouldn't lose interest. We were able to see them perform ahead of booking them, too, as they play on Thursday nights at The Red Lion. Being able to see them play to a crowd in a regular, natural setting was really important to us, and it completely sold us on their whole vibe.

Just incredible

We first encountered The Last Nites at one of my best friend's weddings in 2022 and knew immediately we had to have them perform for our reception as well.

Communication with Waylan leading up to the wedding was seamless. He was responsive, attentive, and genuinely invested in understanding our preferences and the overall vibe we wanted for our celebration.

Something that really stood out to us was the band's willingness to learn new songs for the occasion. The Last Nites were able to learn three specific songs for us and seamlessly incorporated them into their setlist. The level of dedication they showed in perfecting these songs added a personal touch to our reception that we will always cherish.

Overall, the band just brought such incredible vibes to the reception. The energy they exuded was infectious, and our guests were on their feet the whole night because of it.

10/10 would recommend, our wedding wouldn't have been the same without them!!

The Last Nites made our wedding so fun!

Best decision ever to hire The Last Nites for our wedding! They have a great song list and did an awesome job with the additional song we chose for our first dance. Their energy was great and they really knew how to work with our caterers — when to play down time music during dinner, when to dance, etc. My absolute highlight of the night was when they played one of my all time favorite songs (even though it’s somewhat obscure). Not only did they make our night so fun and special, but they were easy to communicate with up leading up to our wedding day. I HIGHLY recommend The Last Nites for a wedding! All of our guests were so impressed by them and had so much fun dancing and watching them play; they really helped elevate our wedding day and we’ll remember it forever!
