Company Retreat Turned Private Concert!

Working with Zach was easy when booking Z-Music Experience for my company's annual retreat. Band showed up on time for setup and did a great job engaging the staff. Everyone had a great time dancing and singing the night away.

A good freaking time

I have absolutely no words for this band. When I first approached Zach Dessel, he was so organized and so receptive to what type of vibe I was going for. I wholeheartedly wanted to avoid any cringe moments during my wedding reception that can often times come along if you hire a DJ, so I knew a live band was our choice. I was so lucky enough to have great conversations with Zach all throughout the planning process that I knew I had full trust in him to execute my vision and OMG..... it completely SURPASSED our expectations. We hired a seven piece band and provided them a set list with a mix of 2000s R&B, modern day pop, 70s/80s music, so we knew everyone was going to have something there for them. As soon as our dinner reception began the vibes they set out were INSANE. The singers were interacting with the crowd, even when they were at their seats, and encouraging everybody to start the party, even before the dance floor opened, and it got people on their feet and wanting to dance. As soon as that dance floor opened, not a single person wanted to leave it. I think we even should've gotten a bigger dance floor because everybody from all ages were rocking out and the band was so interactive with the crowd that it honestly felt like a concert!!!!!! The cocktail hour music was immaculate and they matched the mood perfectly -- even doing cocktail hour renditions of popular hit songs. every guest walked away from my wedding, saying it was the best thing ever and they still talk about it to this day. Literally everybody wants to get married again just to hire this band. 🤣🥰 They were professional, punctual, friendly, a pleasure to be around, and overall insanely talented. they even emceed and ensured the music transitions were smooth so there wasn't a dull moment at all. I can't believe I found them and I wish I can experience them for the very first time again. I know I said I had no words but truly, if you book this band, you will have a GOOD FREAKING TIME!!!!

Incredible Talent, Perfect Vibe — Z-Music Experience Delivered!

Z-Music Experience was absolutely amazing at our wedding! From start to finish, they delivered an incredible jazz performance that brought so much energy, elegance, and fun to our special day. Their talent is truly on another level — every song was played beautifully, and the vibe they created made the whole atmosphere unforgettable.

Our guests couldn’t stop talking about how great the band was. They were professional, easy to work with, and knew exactly how to set the perfect mood throughout the event. If you’re looking for a top-tier jazz band that will elevate your wedding or any special occasion, I highly recommend Z-Music Experience. They were truly awesome and made our night so memorable!

Thank you Zach!

Z-Music Was Perfect

We highly recommend Z-Music and are so glad we chose them for our wedding band. Our guests were very impressed too.

They performed at our wedding and were exceptional from start to finish -- keys at ceremony, jazz at the cocktail hour, and full band at the reception. They performed classic wedding songs and even learned some more niche songs that we wanted. Every song was great, across all the genres the band performed.

Also, the band manager, Zach, was a pleasure to work with -- friendly, accommodating, effective, and very organized. He made the whole process easy.

Overall, an outstanding experience. They helped make our night unforgettable.

Top-Notch Perfection, 10+++ Stars!!

10++++. There are no words to describe Zach and his group! They are definitely the "Best Band Ever," which allowed us to have the best time ever! People are still talking! Their attention to detail, their accommodating nature, their sound, their professionalism, their enthusiasm, and so much more can only be rated as top notch perfection! They allowed us to make our own list of songs and learned songs for us. Their ability to play such a wide range of different types of music is just beyond belief! I cannot say enough about them. I can write so much more, but I think by now, you know that we were extremely, extremely pleased! Can't wait till the next event, so we can use them again! Love you guys!

These Guys Rocked our Party!

We were looking for a high energy band to that would make our wedding amazing and these guys delivered. Their musicianship was exceptional. They are amazing performers the vocals were fantastic. You could feel it. This is not your average wedding band and after working with Z-Music we were so happy that we did not go with a DJ. All of our quests had so much fun and told us how great this band was. They accommodated all of our song requests no matter how unique and my in-laws were so pleased with the music that captured their time. These guys really took our party to a whole other dimension and were so easy to deal with. Love these guys and thank you Z-Music Experiences.

100% Recommend!

We hired Z-Music Experiences and could not have been more pleased with their seamless communication, pleasant demeanor, and professional service. The 7-piece band they provided for our corporate holiday party at Moonshine Modern Supper Club in Millburn, New Jersey, was truly exceptional - upbeat, flexible, and able to keep the dance floor packed all night long. From the initial planning stages to the final notes of the last song, the Z-Music team was a joy to work with, ensuring our special day was perfect in every way. We highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a talented and reliable Live Band.
