I'll be honest, my husband and I were a little nervous when we began our band search for our October wedding in December. Music was so important to us, but we felt we were late to the game and the likelihood of finding a great band that wasn't yet booked was slim. Thankfully, we hit the jackpot with KB3. Not only were they miraculously available, they had POWERHOUSE singers and brass musicians (a must)!
Prior to the wedding, the band leader Jim met with us to review the details and was incredible flexible and sensitive to last minute changes! On the big day, they arrived early, took care of set up and generally put us all at ease. Then... they brought the house down. Absolutely killed it with the most energy I've ever seen from a wedding band - the lead singer Charles was up on the balcony, out on the dance floor, and everywhere in between. Our friends and family did not stop dancing the entire night, and raved for days about how incredible they were. Several of the engaged couples even asked for their business cards - they were that good.
Thank you Chris, Jim and crew for fueling the best day of our lives!

Never left the dance floor
Kahootz performed at my daughter's wedding at the Boston Public Library and they were amazing! No one left the dance floor the entire night. Chris Cole was easy to work with and responsive. He even worked hard to set up a sound system so that my nephew could sing a song he had composed just for the bridal couple into the courtyard at the BPL. Chris had said he always kept an eye on the crowd and if it thinned, they would play a slow song for the older folks. It NEVER thinned. My son-in-law is a dancing nut and he thoroughly enjoyed himself. I'm surprised everyone's shoes didn't have holes in them by the end of the night!

Hire this phenomenal band and your wedding with be a dream!
Dear Chris,
Firstly, I wanted to thank you for all of your help and guidance in choosing the best band ever for our daughters wedding. I know I had so many questions when considering using one of your bands and I appreciated you guiding us to K2. You were such a pleasure to work with from start to finish and always made us feel comfortable in the process leading up to the wedding.
Now onto our review of K2. My husband and I are total music people...We spend lots of our free time traveling to music festivals and in general listening to music. So, with that being said, the band we choose for our daughters wedding was of the utmost importance to us. We’ve also been to our fair share of weddings. We may not remember much about many of the details details of a wedding after the fact, but we do remember the vibe that the band creates.
Well, when I tell you that K2 absolutely crushed it, I mean it, seriously-every single person at that wedding thought that they were the best wedding band they’d ever heard-EVER!
As people were leaving, they were all saying that it was the wedding of the century, and that was in large part thanks to Justin and the rest of his phenomenal band, oh, and there was a double rainbow too. That was also a lovely touch!!
But. Seriously, I can’t even tell you how much we loved them. They went all out to make sure Allie and John got the wedding of their dreams and more.
Their song choices were spot on! There was basically no-one seated at tables during their time playing and entertaining our guests. Everyone was on the dance floor, even my 84 year old Dad was dancing the night away. I had to drag him off the dance floor to rest for a few minutes.
Usually there are one or two songs during a set at a wedding where my husband I look at each other and say, let’s sit this one out... Nope, not with this band. It was one fabulous song after another. At the end of the night, I looked like I’d taken a spinning class. Lol
At one point, Justin moon walked and then went into the audience to sing with the guests. Everyone was just in awe of him.
At another time during the night, he invited my husband along with Johns Dad up onto the stage. I’m pretty sure that was one of the best moments of their lives. Who doesn’t want to be up on the stage with the fabulous Justin and the K2 band. Everyone got such a kick out of that.
I could literally go on and on but it suffices to say that they exceeded our expectations and we would and will recommend them whole heartedly to anyone and everyone. I did see many of our friends and family coming up to them to ask for their contact information.
Justin, you’re copied on this email.
We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your extraordinary effort on July 6th for our daughter and son in-laws wedding.
You and K2 created a vibe than none of us will ever forget and we couldn’t be more thrilled.
Thanks again!
With gratitude,
Lynne Taikowski

Kahootz was absolutely amazing! We worked with KB3 for our wedding reception, and we couldn't have asked for a better band or a bigger dance party. They were very organized in the lead-up to the wedding, and we reviewed with them all the details and special songs. They did an awesome job with the special dances (first dance, parent dances, hora) and then the dance party was just amazing - such a good mix of songs that kept everyone on their feet. The band really sets the tone for the whole evening - and they truly turned our wedding into a once-in-a-lifetime celebration full of joy. Throughout the night and for weeks after, we couldn't stop getting compliments about the band - everyone had such a good time! We couldn't have been happier.

I would advise anyone and everyone to choose Kahootz as their wedding band! If you want to have a good time and for your guests to have a good time, this is the way to go! They are amazing and keep everyone engaged the entire night. So much so that when my wedding ended at 12:30.. everyone could not believe how fast the time went. If you spend extra money on anything.. this is the way to go!!

My husband and I had the pleasure of having Kahootz play during our wedding ceremony and reception on July 6th. If you are looking for the best- LOOK NO FURTHER!!. The entire band is outrageously talented and so involved in their entertainment. You can often find them in the crowd dancing and looking for guests to sing along. We found it comical that every time we looked at the tables during our wedding no one was seated- the whole wedding was out on the dance floor all night. We had many guests compliment that kahootz was the best band they had ever heard and also that we had the best wedding they had ever been to. I can't speak enough of the entire kahootz band from their professionalism, enthusiasm, and talent. They truly were everything I was hoping for and them some!

All of our guests told us that K2 was the absolutely best band that they had ever heard at a wedding! The sound was fabulous, the song mix great and the singers terrific. Chris Cole, the manager, was fun to work with and responsive. You will have so much fun with K2 providing your wedding reception music!

I cannot say enough positive things about KB3! They truly made our wedding the most fun wedding our guests have ever been to. The talent and energy they bring to their performance is unbelievable. I am still getting calls and messages from our guests asking where we found the "best wedding band EVER!" Our wedding would not have been the same without them. The dance floor was packed the whole night! Our hearts are so full and we owe so much of that to them!! The whole band was so gracious and made us feel so comfortable with our choice from day one. When we decided a few weeks before our wedding to add ceremony and cocktail hour music, they were flexible and willing to help out anywhere we needed. This band makes a huge effort to connect with the couple and made us feel so cared for. We want to do it all over again!

KB3 was unbelievable. Not only are they incredibly talented, but they are so flexible. Jim was such a doll and was so focused on making sure the timeline of events as well as the playlist were exactly perfect. And it was! I know I'm biased but my wedding was seriously next level. Months later, it's still the talk of the town. People cannot get over how much it fun it was and how off the charts KB3 was. My husband and went to a bunch of band showcases in Boston and KB3 was so far and above anyone else we saw (and a better price!). We were so thrilled with them and would recommend them to anyone!

KB3 is amazing. They were our wedding band and literally knocked it out of the park -- I've heard from so many guests how our band crushed it. It felt like having Mariah Carey and Michael Jackson (a better looking version of Michael) duet on your dance floor. Everyone would be dancing and then you'd look to your right and the lead singers were there with us on the dance floor dancing and singing, letting people sing the choruses with them, and keeping the energy up. We would use them again in a heartbeat. They had the whole place rocking and had everyone up and dancing all evening. Jim the drummer is the man and so easy to work with and Catherine and Reggie the two lead singers made it such an awesome night!

AMAZING! Kahootz was worth every penny! We first heard them at a friend's wedding 3 years ago and immediately said we would book them for our own someday--- And we did the same week we booked our venue. Chris and the band were so easy to work with from the start. From learning our first dance song to making my new husband sing (not well but hilarious) at the end of the night, every one of them is so talented. They had the dance floor full all night. We did not want them to end! We cannot express the happiness we both felt on our wedding night knowing we have the absolute BEST entertainment around! Thank you! -Lauren & Brendan Doherty (8/27/17)

Hiring Kahootz to play at our wedding in July was by far the best decision we could have made. The band is absolutely incredible, and they made our wedding so unforgettable. They are unbelievably talented, and are so skilled at getting people on the dance floor and keeping them there. Music was very important to us for our wedding, and we could not have been happier with Kahootz. Also, Chris Coles, who performs with the band and manages, was the nicest, easiest person to work with. He was so responsive, and made the planning process absolutely seamless and stress free. The band completely blew us away at the wedding, and our guests are still raving about how incredible they were. The dance floor was packed the entire night, which made us so happy and still puts a smile on our face thinking about it. If you want to make sure your wedding feels like an amazing party where people are having the time of their lives, hire Kahootz immediately!

The rumors are true… Kahootz is literally the best wedding band EVER (not just in Boston). My now husband and I have been to enough weddings to know that what makes a fun party are the guests and a phenomenal band. We wanted our guests to dance and sing all night long and that’s exactly what happened. Kahootz brought so much spirit and energy to our reception (held at the Boston Public Library), playing an incredible range of music that brought all the generations out on the dance floor at once. Not only can they play a huge range of music (soul, motown, hip hop, rock) but they can emcee your event and work the crowd at the same time. In the middle of the dance floor, at the height of the reception, numerous friends and family would stop me to exclaim how much they loved the band.
In addition to their amazing performance, it was also a pleasure to work with Chris Cole, the band manager. He was very responsive over email and asked great questions to help focus in on what we wanted for our reception. The band learned two new songs for us, including our first dance, and let us choose the music to accompany everything from our introduction and cake cutting to the last dances.
We are so happy we hired Kahootz. If you want a band, and a party that people will not stop talking about, hire Kahootz now!!!

KB3 was hands down the best wedding band we have ever heard. Lucky for us they performed at our wedding! I have sent their information to a number of people in the Boston/Maine area, and so many more guests wanted to let us know that KB3 took our wedding to epic levels.
They had everyone on the dance floor the entire night, from kids to grandparents. Also the song list was perfection- they can legit play anything. They learned a Zac Brown Band/country song for our father daughter dance, and then a Freddie Scott/r&b;Soul song for our first dance as husband and wife. The fact that they nailed two newly learned songs from different genres speaks for itself. Motown, pop, rock, soul-whatever you want they will provide. Super organized, on point, kind, I recommend to anyone looking for a bomb wedding. They were, in one word, perfect.

We hired KAHOOTZ for our wedding and couldn't be happier we did. I listened to basically every band in Boston before hiring them, and what really set them apart was 1) amazing interaction with guests and 2) STELLAR lead singers (you feel like you're at a professional concert). They had our whole wedding party up and dancing the whole night. In our wedding photos you see the band members out on the dance floor interacting with guests and passing around the mic -- how fun is that??! THANK YOU KAHOOTZ you're amazing.

Other than the venue, the band was our biggest priority during wedding planning & Kahootz did not disappoint. From 100% creating the vibe we wanted, to nailing a few song requests (some of which were learned the week before the wedding), to showing up to our after party to return a guest's lost cell phone, Kahootz was simply incredible. We're almost 2 months post wedding & our guests are still taking about the band & the insane party on the dance floor the entire evening. I would highly recommend Kahootz to anyone in search of a wedding band.

I have worked in events for over 17 years. Mostly, I have worked on Cape Cod but I have worked across the country. So, when it came time to plan my own wedding I knew which vendors I wanted. Kahootz has always been my favorite band out of all the bands I have seen over the years. They are worth every penny and more! I have worked hundreds of weddings and it was the first time I have ever seen people dance before salads were even served. They engage the whole audience and everyone had so much fun. People are still calling me to tell me how fabulous our wedding was! Thank you Kahootz!!!

I cannot begin to say how amazing Kahootz was at our wedding. Chris was a delight to work with during the planning process. The number one feedback we get about our wedding night was how incredible the band was. They played throughout the entire night with a wide selection of songs perfect for every moment. They took the time to learn our first dance song and played all the songs on our "must play" list and stayed away from those that weren't our style. Most of all, it felt like they were part of the party as it clearly shows they love what they do. I cannot say enough about Kahootz and HIGHLY recommend them for any event!!

Having K2 as our wedding band was one of the first and best decisions we made in our wedding planning process! We wanted all of our guests to be on the dance floor all night and that's exactly what we got. The band works their absolute hardest to deliver a fun set full of crowd-pleasing songs. Our friends are still raving about them.
They also provided our sound equipment and a keyboardist for our ceremony and all of that went off without a hitch. The sound system was perfect, and the keyboardist did an awesome job, especially with a few very custom requests for song choices!

We booked this band after hearing they were the best in Boston from a Wedding planner. They traveled to VT and put on a great show!! They were hands down my favorite part of the night. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how great they were! Book Kahootz and don't look back!
