Too many great things to say!!
I can't even begin to describe the dream team that makes up this group!! First, Sharon was SO AMAZING to work with leading up to the wedding. Literally, she is a bride's dream! As a couple, our major goal was to find a band that fit our relationship and we found it with this group. They were SO MUCH FUN! We haven't stopped getting compliments since the wedding. The entire group is incredible, their song list is made up of insanely fun (and never cheesy!) wedding dance songs, they learned our kind of out there first dance song and killed it. The list literally goes on and on! We can not recommend these guys enough!I can't even begin to describe the dream team that makes up this group!!

Pure talent!!
We saw Billy perform summer of 2019, so when it came time to planning our wedding some months later, we KNEW we had to have Billy! His energy is palpable and his groove is infectious. What we didn’t know at the time, was how gracious and kind Billy and his team would be. Due to the pandemic, our wedding was not able to happen however, we are thrilled we got to interact with Billy and his team. They are not only professional but compassionate people.. and that says a lot about their character. Without a doubt, if you are considering booking Billy, look no further - you will be more than happy with the service and performance.We saw Billy perform summer of 2019, so when it came time to planning our wedding some months later, we KNEW we had to have Billy!

Billy Buchanan was a breeze to work with. He has a very accommodating agent and everything went off perfectly. Billy and his band are so talented and were so much fun. (I chose a five piece band, although you can choose more or less.) My guests danced every dance and they're still talking about the band. They forgot about the food, the flowers, the dress, but not about the band and all the fun they had dancing. Book this band and you will not be disappointed!Billy Buchanan was a breeze to work with.

In November 2015, my brother-in-law got married in Gainesville, Fl and had hired Billy Buchanan & Free Avenue as their wedding band. We had so much fun dancing and singing along to all the music they played, we knew we needed to hire Billy for our wedding too! They more than exceeded our expectations! We asked them to play a mix of Motown, modern and country for us and they delivered. At one point, Billy asked us if we wanted any slow songs and we said absolutely not, everyone was having so much fun dancing! Music is important to both me and my husband and we knew a great band would set our wedding apart. Thank you so much Billy Buchanan & Free Avenue, our guests are still talking about our wedding!In November 2015, my brother-in-law got married in Gainesville, Fl and had hired Billy Buchanan & Free Avenue as their wedding band.

Billy and the band were amazing. One of the best parts of our big day. Our guests were raving about how good they were. Their agent was really fab too - she helped us to feel really comfortable that everything would go smoothly on the day. Billy learned a number of songs for us and played the perfectly. They have a great style of their own too - talented and first-class act. Thanks Billy and the Band!Billy and the band were amazing. One of the best parts of our big day.

Let me save you some stress and trouble while looking for a band: book Billy Buchanan and Free Avenue. Book them now. I'm a music guy, so having a solid band was my number one priority at my wedding. We wanted rock, funk, motown, and modern music. We also wanted someone who could get a crowd pumped up, with good showmanship but not cheesy, and keep everyone dancing. We spent a lot of time looking for bands and never found one we were totally confident with. When we saw some of Billy's work online, we were hesitant because there wasn't a lot of content to review but we liked the glimpses of his personality and his musicianship was solid. So yeah, I was nervous and hoped we had made the right decision, because you never know. Billy B exceeded all expectations, all of them. Do yourself and your party a favor, hire them. 6 months later, people are still talking about how much fun they had at the wedding and not in an insincere or socially obligatory way, it was just an absolute blast and we owe much of that to Billy. Immediately after the show, my brother and his fiance booked them for his wedding. So stop reading this and just hire them.Let me save you some stress and trouble while looking for a band: book Billy Buchanan and Free Avenue. Book them now.

If you want a band that will keep people moving all night long and talking about it for weeks following, book Billy Buchanan and Free Avenue immediately!

We hired Billy Buchanan and his team for two evenings for two separate corporate events. He and the band not only played fun, upbeat music to liven up the evening but would also interact with the guests between sets. We truly appreciated Billy's flexibility with each party to ensure there was a nice flow to each evening. He is a pleasure to work with; fun, professional and damn he can play some good music.
We look forward to working with him again in the future.We hired Billy Buchanan and his team for two evenings for two separate corporate events.

Our event Music in the Gardens was a fundraiser for Washington Oaks Gardens State Park, and we could not have chosen a more appropriate performer. I heard so many wonderful comments and praises, regarding Billy Buchanan and Free Avenue and visitors wanted to know when we would be inviting the band back for another concert. We had a few problems with the parks sound equipment that day, and Billy was so knowledgeable he was able to assist in correcting the problem. We will definitely be having the band back to the park in the near future.Our event Music in the Gardens was a fundraiser for Washington Oaks Gardens State Park, and we could not have chosen a more appropriate performer.

Billy Buchanan and Free Avenue are great entertainers. Our Music by the Sea summer concerts attract over 1200 people of all ages and this band made them all very happy. There are not many bands around with the kind of versatility of Billy Buchanan. The evening included a few of Billy's original songs (all very danceable) along with a wide array of pop music that included Jackie Wilson, Otis Redding, Prince and Bruno Mars. Billy also has an infectious smile and attitude that allows him to bond with his audience. We could not be happier and look forward to having Billy and the band back again in July of 2015Billy Buchanan and Free Avenue are great entertainers.

If you want an event where everyone will have an amazing time, this is the band for you!! My daughter’s wedding was at our home with 120 guest and since my son-in-law has his own band, the music was the most important element of the wedding. Our goal was to have a “PARTY”, we wanted everyone to celebrate the couple and have a memorable day. When Billy and Free Avenue arrived, my instruction to them was “l want everybody dancing tonight!! Let’s have a party.” Without exception, every guest that commented on the wedding said that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Our guest will never forget the beautiful couple and the phenomenal band! Thank you guys for an awesome night! - MichelleIf you want an event where everyone will have an amazing time, this is the band for you!!

Billy was a professional when it came to playing at our wedding. He listened to what we wanted for our wedding, gave us a listing of songs to choose from, arrived to our wedding on time and did a sound check before the guests arrived. He was also very personable with all of our guests and interacted well with our other vendors and also performed beautifully! I would highly recommend Billy for your wedding.Billy was a professional when it came to playing at our wedding.
