    Top Tier Band!!

    76 Degrees West was the perfect band! They sounded fantastic and really nailed the exact genres of music we asked them to play (Old school R&B, funk, Gogo)! As DC Natives we were so thrilled to be able to have them play for our special day. We received sooo many compliments about how great the band sounded and people asking for their information in hopes of having them play at their next event. I would love to have another event myself and hire them to play!

    SO GOOD- 100% recommend

    THESE GUYS ARE UNREAL. We had so much fun and our guests never sat down once the band started playing. They were the ultimate party band and we couldn’t have been happier to have them at our wedding. I would highly recommend for anyone looking to want to dance all night long. I’ve never heard so many complements from guests on how good they were

    Best wedding band you will come across

    I saw 76 Degrees at a good friend's wedding a few years ago and they were hands down the best band I have ever heard at a wedding. So when I got married I had to have them. They traveled all the way up to MA for our event which is a huge effort. And despite me having very high expectations, they far exceeded them! All of our guests complimented on how amazing the band was. They really gave 110% on stage for us and looked they were genuinely enjoying themselves - they are just incredibly passionate about what they do. I could not recommend them enough. Worth every single penny. Will make your event.

    Fantastic!!

    76 Degreea West played at my daughter’s wedding this past weekend and they were phenomenal! The music was amazing, the bandmembers put on a high-energy, fun to watch show and the lead singer was very talented! There was a huge crowd on the dance floor until the very last song, and everyone still wanted more! I would highly recommend this band for any wedding or party. They were excellent and soooo much fun! Everyone is still talking about them!

    Best Band Ever!!!!


    I cannot say enough good things about this band!! Not only are they the nicest group of people, they are beyond talented! I saw them once before my daughter's wedding, and their energy is so contagious, I knew I would book them. They did not disappoint! There is not a better band out there that has their talent and level of entertainment. There was not a moment that the dance floor wasn't packed with both young and older people. I am trying to think of another reason to have a party......they are that fun! If you want your event to be the talk of your crowd and to have a crazy good time, 76 Degrees West is your band!!!!!

    Top Notch!

    Paula and 76 degrees west are an amazing team that we've been very lucky to work with. They've been incredibly responsive/accommodating throughout our booking process and super flexible in light of this pandemic. I would recommend this group to any bride and groom!

    Best wedding band ever - INCREDIBLE energy!!

    My husband and I just got married a couple weeks ago and we cannot say enough good things about 76 Degrees West. When picking a band, our main priority was that the band was energetic and lively. 76 Degrees West far exceeded our expectations! While DC is my home town, my husband and I live out of state so we did not even meet the band until the night of the wedding. My parents and sister saw them once before booking them but once we saw the video we were sold. But the video did not even come close to how phenomenal the actual night of the wedding was. Additionally, besides filling out the questionnaire the band sent about what genres we'd like to hear, we sent them no additional playlists. They read the crowd perfectly and everything they played was awesome. My husband and I have been to many, many weddings and we both agree this was hands down the best band we've heard. My older brother (who has been to at least as many weddings as we have) said that he doesn't remember ever attending a wedding where everyone was on the dance floor the entire time with the exception of around a 20 minute period or so when a lot of people were eating. Everyone of all ages at our wedding kept commenting on how good the band was. We have friends that are getting married in October who are using them. I have 3 siblings and as long as they get married locally, 76 Degrees West will be the first vendor they lock down!

    76 Degrees West was the band who played at my daughter’s wedding reception at the Ronald Reagan Bldg in Washington., DC. Best band ever!

    76 Degrees West exceeded our expectations! Their 11 musicians and vocalists were excellent, they engaged the guests from the first dance for the next 4 hours. The dance floor was full the entire night. The choreography of the band members was entertaining and the songs they played were perfect, right in line with the genres of music we requested - Motown and Classic Rock. And they were so much fun and energetic! All of our guests raved about what an awesome band they were. One of our guests said to her boyfriend “That is the band we are going to have at our wedding!” When our next 3 children marry, 76 Degrees West will be our first choice band! Thank you for making the bride and groom so very happy!!

    Amazing band that'll keep your guests on the dance floor all night.

    I dont even know where to begin! 76 Degrees West was phenomenal. We booked them having never seen them perform and while that was concerning, they did not let us down. Our guests danced all night and everyone could not stop talking about how great they were. We even had many event planners in the audience who are definitely going to be looking at using them for some of their corporate events. The energy was great, the music on point and they were just great people to work with on top of it all. If I could give them 20 stars, I would.

    Hire them now!

    Leon and 76 Degrees West KILLED IT!!! This is an incredibly talented group of people - they sounded fantastic! I had SO much fun dancing to their music, and so many wedding guests come up to me and ask where we found out about the band, noting that it was the best wedding band they had ever heard. I have to agree! They were professional, on time, followed any specific instrux we gave, sounded AMAZING, and were a ton of fun. They knew how to gauge the crowd and when people were really jamming they made the song we liked last longer. They know what they are doing, and they are GOOD at it. Thank you so much 76 Degrees west for being everything we could have asked for and so much more!

    Incredible Performance

    They were incredible. Every guest rated them as one of the highlights of our wedding. They do a great job of mixing classics with contemporary jams. I could not be more happy with them.

    Guests Couldn't Stop Raving About Our Band

    We actually found 78 Degrees West via Wedding Wire, and after listening to their YouTube channel for about 5 minutes, we decided they were the one. Their energy is absolutely amazing and you can tell they're having fun and enjoying every minute of their performance. This translates into a dynamite experience for your guests. In fact, everyone was having such a good time that we had them extend their performance night of. Totally worth the money!

    The dance floor was on fire!

    76 Degrees West was absolutely amazing and brought so much life and energy to our special day! During dinner they played fun upbeat jazz that the guests loved and quickly switched over to dancing music which had EVERYONE on the dance floor. They even had their own light show going on that made the experience that much more fun! I would highly recommend them if you are looking for a FUN band to get the party going!!

    Absolutely Superb - Love Leon!

    76 Degrees West was absolutely superb. Several of our guests said they were one of the best wedding bands they had ever heard. They were very open to our song requests and flexible with timing. I could not have asked for anything more, I would highly recommend. Well worth the cost!

    A must have!

    Book them! Book them! My family and I could be paid for PR for this band (we are not...) but that's how much they made the difference for our wedding reception. It was the most expensive piece of the day, which made me nervous about going "so big" but WORTH EVERY PENNY. Leon is a gem. Female vocalist was unreal. My dad and I split our father/daughter to be half formal/half fun and asked Leon which songs to choose (because we had no clue) and it was somehow, unanimously the highlight of the night. Friends sent me videos for weeks of the dance! Because the music is THAT good. Can't recommend enough. Thank you to Leon and 76 Degrees West for making the PARTY!

    Fantastic band

    We had this band for a large Debutante party. They were professional and had everyone one their feet the entire party! I received many compliments on how much fun they were. Would hire them again!

    We were told that 76 Degrees West would blow our minds but wow did they truly! We hadn’t heard them play live but when they started singing during our ceremony we knew they’d tear the house down. As the bride, I had several calls with Leon who is the leader of the band to ensure all of the songs we wanted them to learn were correct and our recommendations were played. They got the entire place ripping and roaring and our guests kept asking me where we found them all night! Serious Home run!

    76 Degrees West could not have been better! Everyone has been raving for weeks about how great they were at our wedding and we could not be happier or feel luckier to have gotten such a talented, professional group to work with.

    Best band ever!

    76 Degrees West is hands down, the best band I have seen at any wedding or event. They played at my company's IPO party and I knew they had to be our wedding band (this was three days before I was even engaged!). So many people came up to me during the wedding to say it felt like we were at a concert because all 250 of us somehow packed the dance floor and didn't leave all night. We are already trying to figure out another event we need to throw just so we can book with them again.

    Best band ever! We asked that they play only oldies and they stuck to it! Had such a great time with them and they were definitely into pleasing the crowd. Perfect balance of fun and professional.
