The best!!
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Hoi Polloi- they are absolutely fantastic, Jim was a doll to deal with and very responsive and easy. Everyone at our wedding raved about them. We added the female vocal as well as the saxophone and it feels like this made them even more stellar. 10 out of 10Hoi Polloi's reply:
Matt and Ali, Wow, thank you so much for the very kind words. When your group came down from dinner, they just wanted a dance party and that's what we gave them! Months of careful planning yielded the perfect reception. Thank you for having us, and see you around town!! Jim and Hoi Polloi -

Kerry L. Sent on 07/11/2022Amazing Night with the Hoi Polloi
The Hoi Polloi recently played at our wedding and we could not have asked for a better experience! Working with Jim leading up to our wedding was such a pleasant & seamless experience. We had a blast at our wedding-- the dance floor was packed all night and the band played exactly the right songs to get the crowd energized. The Hoi Polloi over-delivered on all expectations and we couldn't recommend them more! (and they often play at local bars if you want a sneak peak of the energy they will bring to your next event!)Hoi Polloi's reply:
Kerry,
Wow, thank you so much for the spirited review and kind words. It was our sincere pleasure to provide the soundtrack to your perfect day. All the best to you and Matt!! Jim -

Amazing!!!
Couldn't have asked for a better band! My family is very picky and they crushed it! Everyone said best wedding they have ever been to. No one left the dance floor the whole night. They are fun and very talented. Definitely recommend you go off of their song list 700 to choose from! They are a master at all of them!! they preform at our country club and crush it there too!Hoi Polloi's reply:
Katie,
It was our distinct honor to play for you, Brian, family, and friends. The dance floor was buzzing all night, everyone was ready to party. Thank you for these kind words and amazing photos, and all the best to both of you. Jim -

Taylor S. Sent on 07/05/2022Hoi Polloi is worth every penny
I got married on Sunday 7/3, and Hoi Polloi was an absolute hit. They provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour (live piano and vocals), and reception (7 piece band). Working with Jim leading up to the day was seamless. We are always very easy to get in touch with and thorough. We had a phone discussion a few weeks leading up to the wedding to go over the planner. The band listened to our requests, and the night of pulled an audible and changed the last song on my request.
The dance floor was filled the entire night and everyone had an amazing time. I could not recommend them more.
I also want to add that they are an affordable option if you want live music. They have a base price and then you can add on additional vocals and horns, cocktail etc. So they have options to work within a reasonable budget. All in all, you will not be disappointed.Hoi Polloi's reply:
Taylor, you and Ryan were a dream couple to plan the perfect day...decisive, knew what you wanted, and accessible. Thank you so much for your kind words here, and we wish you nothing but a lifetime of happiness together!!! -

I first heard Hoi Polloi when they played my friends’ wedding a few years ago. I knew right away that whenever I was getting married, I’d want them to play my wedding. We had so much fun, I don’t think I sat down the entire night. Fast forward to August 2019 after getting engaged I knew right away I needed to secure Jim and the band to play my wedding. We didn’t even have our venue or our date but I emailed Jim right away. Not only was he kind, honest and professional, but he even gave us a few recommendations for our venue when I was having a hard time searching. As soon as we found our venue, we secured our date with the band. When Covid forced us to postpone our wedding, Jim and the band were completely understanding, supportive, and made sure that they would be available for us on our new date. The transition was seamless and I felt so relieved knowing that no matter what I would still be getting married and still have the band of my dreams. I can’t wait until next year! -

Hoi Polloi was a delightful band to work with. They were incredibly accommodating and made sure to ask specific questions so that the wedding would be exactly how we want it. My guests were out on the dance floor the whole night and they really knew how to keep the party going. Overall, amazing experience.Hoi Polloi's reply:
Kelly, thank you for such a kind review. It was absolutely our pleasure to perform for you and Angelo, and your guests. All the best!! -

When we started our wedding planning we knew that we wanted a band at our event but did not know where to start. I asked a few friends and Hoi Polloi came HIGHLY recommended. From my first email to Jim I soon found out why. Jim and the band have been nothing but the BEST. We could not have asked for a better interaction. We went to see them play at The Laundromat in Morristown and had such a wonderful time. Jim and all of the band members were so fun to be around, interacted with all the guests there and made it such a great experience which is EXACTLY what we were looking for in a band. Not only is their music OUTSTANDING, the correspondence with Jim have always been top notch. He really truly cares and goes out of his way. We knew we found the perfect band and then the venue search was on. Jim even helped recommend venues and other vendors to make our wedding planning experience that much better. When covid came I reached out to him with some anxiety as I heard from friends that some vendors were not returning deposits or were requiring second deposits. This was not the case for Hoi Polloi. Jim has been so helpful and made the rescheduling process a breeze. His willingness to transfer the deposit and ease of rescheduling took all my anxiety away. If you are looking for a band to make your wedding night or event memorable for all guests these are your guys. As my husband says, "We couldn' have asked for anything better."
