Unique and Memorable Event Entertainment

Vinyl Jam Music absolutely blew us away. We have been to plenty of wedding receptions, and this one shot straight to the top. The band was a huge reason why. They were incredibly talented and also so personable, which made the whole atmosphere feel special from the second they started playing.

The mix of instruments they brought was on another level compared to a typical wedding band. Every song felt bigger and more fun than anything we have heard at a wedding in a long time They turned the whole night into something unforgettable.

Vinyl Jam Made Our Night

Vinyl Jam was unbelievable. I truly cannot say that enough. From the start, we knew music was a huge priority for our wedding, and they absolutely nailed it. Our first dance was to “Birds of a Feather,” and they took the time to learn it just for us. It was beautiful and emotional, and I had chills the entire time.

The vocalists were insane. Every single one of them brought something special. The energy during the dance sets was amazing and fun. I don’t think anyone sat down once the party started. They opened with timeless classics that got everyone moving and later in the night threw in some early 2000s hits that had all our friends screaming the lyrics.

If you’re thinking about hiring them. do it. You will never forget the way they make your night feel. We definitely won’t.

Incredible!!

As a guest, I was absolutely blown away by this band. Each vocalist and instrumentalist brought the best energy and completely transformed the reception into such a fun celebration. The music was incredible, the vibes were perfect, and because of them I stayed on the dance floor literally the entire night. They were all such talented musicians, and you can really feel how much heart and passion they put into their performance. So many guests couldn’t stop talking about how amazing they were. They were truly one of the highlights of the night, and I’d highly recommend them for any wedding or special event!

Not just the best wedding band, one of the best bands in general!

We booked Vinyl Jam’s 10-piece band for our wedding in Palm Springs, and OH MY GOD they were unreal!!! Every transition was seamless, every vocalist was honestly well beyond good, and the musicians were absolute pros. It felt like a private concert designed just for us and was genuinely one of the best shows we've ever seen! On top of that, they were professional and organized from the very beginning. Will and his team handled every detail. The setlist was perfect for everyone! People are still telling us it was the best live music they’ve ever heard at a wedding. Vinyl Jam didn’t just bring the party, they were the party. Hire them!

Best band ever

We had the most amazing experience with Vinyl Jam. From the initial outreach, through planning (Will was SO responsive and friendly), through the event itself, we were blown away. We hired Vinyl Jam for the ceremony and the reception. The vocalists and musicians were so talented and energetic! They had our guests on the dance floor all night. We loved their performance so much (and neither have our guests), and have not gotten over how incredible they were. We can’t recommend Vinyl Jam enough!

Best Energy and Music

We hired Vinyl Project completely blew us away at our annual Soultenders Customer Appreciation Party! I’ve been to this event for years, but having Vinyl Project perform for the first time made it a whole new experience. The energy in the room was amazing, and the music was beyond incredible. Guests couldn’t stop talking about how much fun they had—both during and long after the event! They brought the perfect vibe, so much talent, and just the right amount of energy. I’m already looking forward to having them back next year!

Unforgettable Christmas Party with Vinyl Project!

We hired Vinyl Project and they absolutely crushed it at our Christmas party! I was blown away by their talent and the energy they brought to the room. Even though Christmas music isn’t in their typical show, they went above and beyond by learning a bunch of holiday songs for us, while still delivering all the big hits we love. The vocals were just insane – seriously next-level. It was easily the most fun I’ve ever had at a party. If you’re looking for a band that knows how to bring the house down, you HAVE to book them!
