Perfect day - perfect band! We would hire them again in a heartbeat

We had Soul Dynamic (from Vinyl Jam Entertainment) at our wedding in Sonoma, California. They were a standout hit and made our wedding the best night of our lives.

From a band quality standpoint - this band means business! They do a sound check before and are extremely professional. They have a very long list of songs they play. I am very picky with music, and they made sure to follow the strict list I asked for. In addition to that, they learned 7 new songs just for our wedding (!!!!)

They knew how to play the crowd. Not only that, one of our attendees recognized one of the singers from Instagram - turns out she's lowkey famous. Wild!

From an administrative standpoint - Will Makar was the easiest vendor to work with. We managed the whole process via email, and he was always prompt to reply and clear with his communication. Planning a wedding is already a huge hassle, and he made the whole process easy.

I wish I was planning another big event, so I could hire this band again. You won't go wrong with them.

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!

A Wedding That Felt Like a Concert!


If I could give Vinyl Project even more stars, I absolutely would! They made our wedding in Dana Point feel like the most epic live concert, where every guest had a front-row seat. Their energy, talent, and enthusiasm were unbelievable, and they kept the dance floor packed all night long. Our guests are still raving about how incredible the band was, saying it’s the best wedding band they’ve ever experienced. If you want your wedding to feel like an unforgettable concert, Vinyl Project is the band for you!
