Nina Sent on 05/13/2025The NIck Campbell Band- simply outstanding!
Wow. Where do we even begin? We had heard incredible things about Hank Lane Music, but The Nick Campbell Band absolutely blew us away and exceeded every expectation we had.
From the very first note, it was clear that every member of the band is exceptionally talented. But beyond just their musical ability, what truly made them stand out was the energy and passion they brought to our special day. The dance floor was packed from start to finish, and our guests haven’t stopped talking about how amazing the band was.
They had an impeccable sense of timing and vibe, knowing exactly what songs to play to keep the energy just right throughout the night. We had asked them beforehand not to hold back and to engage with the crowd—and they delivered. The way they came out onto the dance floor and interacted with everyone made the night feel even more electric and unforgettable.
If you're looking for a band that will not only perform with insane talent but will also elevate your entire celebration, we can’t recommend The Nick Campbell Band enough. They helped make our wedding night truly unforgettable.

Alex Sent on 05/10/2025Book Spotlight!
We chose Spotlight as our band because from the preview we saw, it just looked like they all had so much fun together! We definitely chose right- Kyle, Matt, and the band had a blast together and that translated to our guests! Everyone told us how much fun they had and it was one of the best wedding bands they had experienced! They following all of our requests and executed them perfectly! They read the room and kept the energy going all night long! There were so many ways they made the night feel personal to us and we couldn’t be happier with how the whole night went! We’d highly recommend Spotlight for your wedding band!! - Nicole and Alex -

Sydney Sent on 04/23/2025Jenna Wynne Band is THE BEST
We booked Jenna Wynne for our wedding and the band was absolutely INCREDIBLE! The dance floor was packed with all 300 guests the entire night. Each song was better than the next. We were blown away with the level of talent and dedication from each and every band member. They could so easily read the room and picked up on the exact vibes and energy we were going for. After the wedding, the number one piece of feedback we received was how fantastic the band was. We've recommended Jenna to every couple we know getting married in the next couple of years. We couldn't be happier and can't wait to party with them again! -

Jenn Sent on 03/19/2025You need Encore!
Booking Encore with Hank Lane was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! From the very first song to the last, they brought an incredible energy that kept our dance floor packed all night long. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the band—everyone was blown away by their sheer talent, amazing setlist, and enthusiasm. We especially loved how the band members interacted with our guests on the dance floor, making the night feel even more electric and unforgettable. If you want a wedding where the dance floor never empties and the energy is through the roof, Encore is the band to book! -

Nicholas Sent on 02/16/2025Best night of our lives
Overdrive had all of our wedding guests tearing up the dance floor. Each band member is unbelievably talented. Our wedding was 4 months ago, and people are still raving about how great Overdrive was. We are forever grateful to Overdrive (and Hank Lane) for making our wedding night the best night ever. -

Matthew Sent on 02/02/2025Jenna Wynne Band through Hank Lane Music is truly amazing.
The Jenna Wynne Band through Hank Lane is truly amazing. We had a 220-person wedding and 220 people were dancing and enjoying the music from start to finish. Simply put – if you have the chance to have Jenna Wynne and the band perform at your wedding / event you simply must do it.
Jenna was amazing to work with in the planning process. She understood the type of music we were looking for – what we wanted and didn’t want and helped guide us through how it would unfold. We walked through the entire wedding during planning and she helped ensure the right type of music was going to be played for every moment. It was true and music was played the entire night without break.
We can’t express how great the night unfolded. The energy, the vibes, the music was truly perfect and exactly what we had hoped for. The band is young and brought a vivacious energy to the night.
Hard to describe how talented everyone is. Jenna is amazing. The singers rocked all night long. The pianist (who also played the ceremony and cocktail hour) was so great – and man could he sing too! The horns and percussion brought the house down.
We may be biased – but they were truly the best wedding band we had seen. However, that was validated by our guests – I heard that same comment from countless people.
The band made our wedding night a night to remember. We are forever grateful.
Also – working with Hank and the team at Hank Lane Music was great. The team is professional, organized and easy to work with. Everything from contracting to the day off went so smoothly. There is a reason they have a reputation for being the best in the business. -

Amanda Sent on 01/02/2025The Russ Bennett Band ROCKS!!!
We had the Russ Bennett Band perform at our wedding and they were an absolute hit!!! We had a few specific song requests for our DnD-themed wedding, Russ was a gem and made them all happen! He was so great to work with! Our ceremony music was beautiful, our cocktail hour music was lovely, and the reception music was amazing! Russ's band learned two new pieces for our ceremony, an intro song for our bridal party entrance, and the entirety of a acoustic cover of "Making the Most of the Night" for our first dance. We're so grateful he and his crew made our perfect wedding happen! They're all so incredibly talented! All of our guests loved the band, and the dance floor was constantly filled with people! We're still getting compliments months later whenever our wedding is brought up! We can't say enough good things about the Russ Bennett Band! Thank you so much!!! -

Felicia Sent on 12/04/2024Beautiful Music
Hank Lane Music was one of the best vendors we used. They were so kind and easy to work with. Pete Saunder's band was incredible. Guests are still talking about how good they were. They really made the wedding even more beautiful. The price is definitely worth it. Thank you so much! -

Lauren Sent on 11/24/2024Spotlight made our night
10 out of 10; highly recommend Spotlight!
We had such an amazing time at our wedding, and Spotlight band was such a huge part of that! Kyle and Matt from the band were extremely friendly and personable, and the band had everyone on their feet the entire night long! They brought great energy, they brought great vibes, and they brought amazing skills!
We had them for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and I wouldn't change a thing. My maid of honor was also planning to use a speaker for a song during her speech, and last minute the band played that song live for her instead. On top of that, they played all of our special requests, played endless songs that we loved, and did a great job with reading the room.
We got so many compliments from our friends and family on the band, we can't thank Spotlight, Kyle and Matt enough! -

Rachel Sent on 11/15/2024Best Wedding Band Ever!
Hank Lane Music is the way to go!! The Nick Campbell Band were absolutely incredible. We know a band can make or break a wedding, and the Nick Campbell band BLEW THE ROOF OFF! From playing the songs, requests, and vibe of music we wanted, to engaging the guests and even having us come up and sing and dance with them, it couldn't have been a more fun night. Plus, they are such nice people and introduced themselves to us and made sure we were happy throughout the night. Not to mention all of the compliments we keep getting on how amazing they were. Also, Russ was incredible to work with leading up to the wedding day. We couldn't recommend them more! If you're lucky enough to be able to book The Nick Campbell Band for your wedding, definitely do it, you won't regret it! -

Lexie Sent on 10/30/2024Cory LS Band is out of this world!
I cannot understate how truly amazing the Cory LS Band is. Every song was perfect and they brought so much energy and fun to the crowd. People were on the dance floor the entire night with the performers right in the middle of everyone. They even let my friend get up on stage with them to sing and it was like being at a concert. Cory and every member is unbelievably talented spanning every genre and I couldn’t recommend them more. All of the guests were completely blown away and I had multiple family members tell me that the Cory LS energy levels were unmatched. -

Pj Vigilante Sent on 10/22/2024Overdrive had our dance floor packed all night!!
Working with Hank Lane was an absolute delight! They made the process of finding the perfect band incredibly easy. We previewed several options and ultimately chose Overdrive. Their energy was palpable even in their demo, and they were even more impressive in person. The band was not only incredibly talented but also kind and accommodating, playing all the right songs to keep the dance floor packed all night. Their unmatched talent and enthusiasm made our event unforgettable. I wholeheartedly recommend them if you're looking for a fun and skilled 9-piece wedding band! -

Christina Sent on 10/04/2024AMAZING Wedding Performance
From the start, the Spotlight Group set the perfect tone for the evening. They knew exactly how to read the crowd, and their playlist catered to every age group in attendance. Whether it was classic hits or today’s top tunes, they had something for everyone, and the dance floor was packed all night long. I’ve never seen so many people on the floor, and I’m not exaggerating when I say that many of our guests stayed until the very last song just because the music was so good. The energy never died down, and there was never a lull. 5 STARS.

We had Hank Lane's Elevation at our wedding and boy was it rockin' because of Elevation! The music was flawless, the voices are incredible, and the man bun is the BEST!

We had Brooklyn Sound at our wedding at Crystal Plaza this past weekend, and they were incredible!!! They had the crowd on the dance floor the entire night and really knew how to read the room. It was also clear that Jonny listened closely to our specific requests because he hit on every one of them. We are so happy we chose this band for our special day. 10/10 would recommend!!! -

Rachel Sent on 06/26/2024Cory LS is the perfect band!
We were so stoked to work with the Cory LS Band at Hank Lane and they lived up to every expectation. All of the musicians are so talented, so fun, and so kind. Cory is truly an amazing band leader with the most incredible energy. The band had our guests dancing all night long - we also had some performance from guests (bride and mother of groom) and they were easily able to accommodate. Literally no notes! They were perfect. -

Emma Sent on 06/20/2024Ignition was AMAZING!!!
We got married on June 8th, and our best decision was picking Ignition as our band! They were such a pleasure to work with - they eagerly asked for our hopes for the evening and really made all our dreams come true. They made us feel comfortable, listened to us, and alleviated any stress we had. They spoke with us as much as we wanted before the wedding, without being overbearing! It is clear they take such pride in their work, and they want the best for us. On the wedding night - they were all so talented, they used our suggested songs to make a perfect set list, they were energetic and fun, they interacted with the crowd, and they made it such a fun evening. The most frequent and biggest compliments we’ve received about the wedding have been about you Ignition. We are so thankful for them, and we hope we get to go to another wedding where we can see them perform!! -

Katie Sent on 05/28/2024Marcus Reid Best Band Ever!!!!!!!!!
Marcus Reid Band truly made our wedding the best night of our lives!!! We got engaged in September 2022, booked Liberty Warehouse October 2022, and booked Marcus through Hank Lane 2 weeks later. He came highly recommend from Jeff @ Liberty Warehouse. We’ve never been to a wedding of Marcus Reid Band before but heard amazing things. Based on what we saw on our call with Hank Lane and heard my expectations were high… but they completely blew our minds!!! Marcus and the band were incredible. They were all SO SO talented. The icing on the cake was the horns and Marcus on the dance floor! The amount of texts and messages I got about best wedding ever and BEST band ever. They brought the energy we needed and had people dancing all night long which is exactly what we wanted. We are so grateful!! It’s crazy how big of an impact Marcus Reid Band made on our lives. When we think back on our wedding day, they will always be in our fondest memories. Choosing Marcus Reid as the band was the most important decision to us and we can’t thank them enough!! Everything I dreamed of. Hank Lane was incredibly easy to work with, answered all my questions, and were quick to respond. -

Samantha Sent on 05/21/2024Encore for encore
Every single person described as our wedding as ELECTRIC and that is a huge KUDOS to the band Encore! I cannot describe how so beyond incredible they were and how they matched and brought the energy that our party had. We were a HUGE dance group - did not leave the dance floor once and the band did not stop at ALL!!! Ethan - the band leader - is a GEM and he rocked it all night and understood exactly what we were looking for and went beyond our wildeset expectations. I wanted to have the sax on the dance floor and the sax was on the dance floor jumping and dancing with us so many times. I can go on and on about how amazing Encore was. So many people told us this was the best wedding they have ever been to in their life. We have so much to be thankful for. BOOK ENCORE! You will not regret it!!! Thank you Hank Lane and Russ!!!!! -

Ariel Sent on 05/18/2024Can't say enough good things about Luxe!!!
My partner and I just had our wedding at Greenpoint Loft in Brooklyn, and Luxe absolutely positively knocked it out of the park. They were PERFECT. From start to finish, Frank was an absolute PLEASURE to work with. With Luxe, you are not only hiring a flawless band, but also basically a party planner that will help you map out the whole night / the timeline to keep your guests energized and on the dance floor. He is as meticulous as you can get when it comes to wedding details, and he knows EXACTLY what to do (and not do!) to keep a party going. And if you have any creative ideas that you want to bring to the table, he'll help you make your ideas come to life in the best possible way all while keeping the party going. From the little pieces of advice he gave us to amp up our reception entrances, to answering all of our questions on timing / scheduling in the weeks leading up to the wedding (and making us feel comfortable asking so many questions in the first place), to making sure the ceremony music transitioned seamlessly and the parent dances covered the right parts of the songs, to playing the exact music we asked for, I could go on and on and on, they were literally perfect from start to finish. Luxe had our guests on the dance floor the entire night. Not to mention the mash-ups in the last dance set, which were straight fire. Guests were raving about the band and kept asking for their name to look them up and recommend them to other newlywed friends (which is no surprise, since WE hired them after seeing them perform at OUR friend's wedding at the Yale Club, and the same thing happened then too). We genuinely cannot imagine how any wedding band could be better than Luxe. Seriously. We had a tight budget for our wedding-- but agreed early on that the band is the one thing we would splurge on-- and we are SO glad we did.
Thank you thank you thank you Frank and the entire band from the very bottom of our hearts!!!! You made our wedding somehow even greater than we ever could have imagined, and we are eternally grateful. We can't say enough good things about Luxe!! -

Michael Sent on 05/11/2024Spotlight band - incredible!
We worked with Spotlight/Hank Lane Music for our Dec 2023 wedding. Five months later, our guests are STILL raving about how amazing the music was at our event! Spotlight was truly phenomenal, keeping the dance floor full of guests of all ages at every point of the night. They did a great job customizing some of our music selections and interacting with guests the whole night. They were so fun! Leading up to the big day, all the Hank Lane staff was a dream to work with. Kind, professional, responsive, and flexible with every decision. This will be some of the best money spent on your wedding, go with Hank Lane! -

Amanda Sent on 04/17/2024Steve delisi band!
Words cannot express the incredible talent, professionalism, vibe, etc etc of the Steve Delisi band. They were simply UNBELIEVABLE. They played hit, after hit, after hit. There was never a moment where people weren't up and dancing and having the best time of their lives. It was the night of our lives - just perfect.
We cannot thank your team and the band enough for making our night the most special one ever. Will be recommending not only Hank Lane, but specifically Steve Delisi band to anyone that will listen to us until forever. -

Chris Sent on 04/11/2024Frank Simmons Band made our wedding unforgettable - could not recommend them more!
Our #1 most important thing when planning our wedding was live music. We looked at ~20 top bands in the NY/NJ area, and after seeing Frank Simmons Band's video we knew we wanted to have them. It ended up being the best decision.
Frank and his team were incredibly attentive/responsive and played to the exact type of vibe/party we wanted (a mix of throwbacks and new-age stuff). Our dance floor was packed all night which is what we wanted, and Frank and his team executed things perfectly.
Multiple people told us after the wedding how amazing and versatile they were. I would recommend them 10/10 to keep your dance floor packed all night and make your wedding night memorable.
Thank you Frank and the team!!

The Marcus Reid Band absolutely rocked my daughter’s wedding Saturday night. They were incredible. Marcus went over and beyond to make the wedding at The Heritage Club (amazing venue) the greatest. The energy, musicianship, vocals and Vibe were so good I would pay to see them perform in concert. Marcus is also kind, humble and an absolute gentleman to deal with. Thank you!!! -

Christine Sent on 01/23/2024Best Wedding DJ EVER
There are no words for DJ Phil and his team - our wedding dance floor was NEVER empty from the moment the music started until the last song. Phil made the planning so easy and fun, each call was like talking to a friend and he got our vibe completely. We told him we wanted a raging party and he delivered, our guests absolutely loved the music and we had the best time. In addition to that the ceremony and cocktail music was exactly what we wanted, and highly customized to our taste, which was amazing. Thank you, Phil and team for giving us the NYE party we wanted!
