Brooklyn cover band The Loyales, is the kind of good time dance band they don't make anymore.
Championing juke joint, rootsy dance music, this band joyfully rolls out song after song by classic soul and roots artists. It's like having a live band playing through an old juke box's 45′s.
The Loyales have played multiple events for Daily Candy, the NYC Food & Wine Fest, and backed Chef Tom Colicchio of Top Chef on Martha Stewart's radio show, as well as for the opening of one of Tom's venues in NYC.
Musician Credentials:
Milton himself has played with Norah Jones, Al Kooper, Joan Osborne, James Hunter, Shelby Lynne, & Steve Earle. He also wrote the score for an HBO movie
Julia can often be heard singing songs for the show 30 Rock. She won an Independent music award for best female vocalist and she's sung harmony with Michael MacDonald.

He has been a featured performer with jazz stars Kurt Elling, Brian Lynch, Peter Bernstein, Rufus Reid, Bill Stewart, Billy Hart, Albert "Tootie" Heath, Ndugu Chancler, Cassandra Wilson, Miri Ben-Ari and Yosvany Terry among others.
Drummer Ben's music is on "Wedding Crashers", "The OC" "Fast Food Nation" among other movies and TV shows.
Sami has won numerous prizes from international film festivals for his film scoring work.
Martin went to Oxford. He's as steeped in bluegrass mandolin as he is in electric funk guitar.
Some Raves:
Best wedding band ever!!! We spent our entire evening on the dance floor along with everyone else!
-Eliza
Six years later, people are still talking about the fabulous music at our wedding party. Milton and his band The Loyales played and sang their hearts out to Johnny Cash, the Beatles, Etta James, Prince, James Brown, and more. No one could resist the urge to get up and dance. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all!
-Claire
I can unreservedly say that having The Loyales perform at our wedding was a lasting highlight. Not only did the band perform countless songs from their reserves, they played personal requests that truly "made the night".

We love The Loyales!
The Loyales could not have been more perfect for our wedding – professional, easy to work with, really talented, and ultimately, great sound. Milton made a point to get to know our music preferences in the planning up to the wedding and worked with us to pull together a song list that was perfect for our ceremony and reception. They kept everyone dancing the whole night. Two months later, guests are still raving about how awesome The Loyales were!

The Loyales deliver!
Milton and The Loyales were a definite highlight of our wedding! Guests from all age groups commented positively on how awesome the band was. Not only are they talented, but they were also professional and reassuring (a great quality on a day that can sometimes be crazy). We loved the acoustic set during the cocktail hour, and the horah was legendary. Plus they played some Grateful Dead. All in all, well worth the price and happy to support great people and musicians.

We love the Loyales!
We love the Loyales! Working with them in advance of the wedding was very easy, they made us feel well taken care of, happily answering lots of questions and providing great advice about music selection. Their performance the day of was spectacular. They performed during the wedding, the cocktail hour and for dinner and dancing. Each of these performances was a little different, perfect for that moment. They honored the original artist's songs while also adding their special touch. We would highly recommend the Loyales for anyone we meet. Music is such an important part of our lives and integral to any wedding, without the Loyales, our wedding wouldn't have been as special as it was.
