    Lion and Tiger, BOOK THEM!

    Jess and her team were awesome! We ran into some issues with our venue but the bad dealt with any and all issues with ease. Lion and Tiger's performance was outstanding! They talked with us several times to get the idea of what we wanted and they did not disappoint. They played loud, for a long time, and got the entire wedding on their feet. Could not have asked for a better outcome. We highly recommend them!

    Lion + Tiger Made Our Wedding!

    We recently had our wedding at the Roundhouse in Beacon, New York. As our title suggests, Lion + Tiger was one of the best aspects of our wedding and we’re so happy that we ended up choosing them as the band. All of our guests felt the same way and we got so many compliments on the music. We really wanted to make sure that our guests were engaged throughout the night and that everyone was dancing, and Lion + Tiger delivered on this. All of the musicians are extremely talented and can play a diverse array of genres. They also played everything we asked them to. In terms of customer service, Jess was a pleasure to work with, very professional, and organized in terms of scheduling and learning the details of our day. Also, as far as bands go, Lion + Tiger is reasonably priced and could probably be charging much more for their services. We looked at a ton of bands, even some that charge much more, and Lion + Tiger impressed us the most. We’re so happy that booked them and would highly recommend!

    Absolutely Incredible Experience

    We researched a lot of bands and decided on Lion + Tiger because they seemed to break from the mold of wedding bands, and Jessica was so amazing to talk to. This turned out to be one of the best decisions of the wedding weekend. I’m not exaggerating when I say 90% of the people danced for the entire reception. They sounded excellent, and the songs they played were perfect based on the conversations we had throughout the process. We can’t thank Jessica and the band enough for making our day so fun and so unique (especially with the last two songs they played). Highly recommend. 10/10.

    P.S. We opted for the horns section add-on and they were AWESOME.

    Worth every penny!

    Lion+Tiger was OUT OF THIS WORLD!! My husband and I knew from listening to them online that their sound and style was unique and they truly rocked our wedding. We are a couple in our 40s so our wedding was a bit of an older crowd. EVERYONE was on the dance floor ALL NIGHT and every single person remarked about how amazing they were. Their talent and sound is truly fabulous and every song is better than the next. Working with Jess the band leader was also amazing. She is super relatable and helpful. Also - get the HORNS!! The added dimension of the brass is truly amazing!! Lion+Tiger was worth EVERY PENNY!!!

    Stephanie,

    Thank you so much for this amazing and kind review. It was an honor to be part of your special day.

    If your definition of a good time is dancing the night away, this band is for you!

    Lion + Tiger Band was the best decision my husband and I made when it came to the music at our wedding! From our first meeting with Jessica, we knew we were in for an incredible time with them. We were married on 10/8/22 at the Barn at Perona Farms and from the moment the ceremony started until the very last song of the night, EVERYONE was complimenting on this band! They were so tight and in sync, their voices were incredible, and their dedication to playing our requested songs was truly appreciated! I cannot say enough great things about Lion + Tiger - super cool and super professional. We highly HIGHLY recommend them for your next event, you will NOT regret it! Thank you, Lion + Tiger!

    Best wedding band!

    Words can not even begin to describe how much we loved having Lion and Tiger play at our wedding. Our guests were on the dance floor all night long and we continue to get compliments to this day. They played our requested songs so well and learned them so fast! The band was our number 1 priority for the wedding and we could not be more happy with our choice. The energy they brought was unreal and I would do the whole day over again to just listen to them play again. Thanks Jess and Lion and Tiger, you guys are the absolute BEST!

    Lion + Tiger's reply:

    Thank YOU for trusting us to be the soundtrack to your special day!
    We truly appreciate your kind words!

    The absolute greatest!

    Quite honestly, Lion + Tiger band made our wedding what it was: an event that is still being spoken about nearly four months later. Some guests said it was like going to a concert where they also happened to be served dinner. People danced NON STOP. The band was too good NOT to be on the dance floor. They play to every generation. Jess knows exactly what she’s doing and we are so happy we listened to her when she said “trust me, I know what we will play and what we will stay away from.” They are not you’re typical, run-of -the-mill wedding band by ANY means. If you want a memorable party you should stop looking and book Lion + Tiger immediately.

    Concert of our Lives

    In June 2021 we hosted a wedding between my daughter Gina Bloshuk and her fiancé Matt Munns at Hotel LBI in New Jersey. The band performing at the wedding was Lion + Tiger. The evening began with some mood setting music during our cocktail hour on the veranda and just escalated from there. The food and drink were great but the band was outstanding. The dance floor rocked from just after dinner until closing at 11pm, no breaks. The diversity and selection of the music was so on target for the venue and the guests. The dance floor was jammed with guests having the best time of their lives. It was basically a concert held exclusively for the wedding and the reviews from each of the guests were Aces. If you’re shopping for a wedding band that kicks ass, look no further. In addition to the performers, the band came ready with lighting and sound professionals. So while the sound rocked, it wasn’t deafening to the point of aggravation. It was just right. You can’t go wrong with Lion + Tiger, sign them up !

    Amazing Music and Band! Couldn't stop dancing all night!

    My husband and I are so happy that we went with Lion and Tiger as our wedding band. As live music lovers, we had high expectations for a wedding band and I confidently can say that Lion and Tiger not only delivered on those expectations, but exceeded them. Not sure if its just because it was my wedding, but I actually think they are the best wedding band I've ever seen live. I can't recommend them enough! The entire process from hiring, to planning, to day of, was a breeze. Jessica is truly a delight to work with and made everything so easy. She was very knowledgeable about how to handle the schedule and festivities the night of and how to keep the energy with our guests high and keep them on the dance floor. You can also tell that every member of the band truly loves what they do and they all had a smile on their face the whole night. Our guests still won't stop raving about how good the band was! If you are looking for an unbelievable wedding band that will over deliver on your wedding day then look no further than Lion and Tiger!

    Best wedding band!

    We cannot express how AMAZING Lion + Tiger are! Jess was wonderful throughout the entire booking and planning process. She offered flexibility and guidance as we made the difficult decision to postpone our wedding due to COVID. Till this day our guests rave about how amazing the band was. Lion + Tiger had everyone dancing the entire night. Thank you for helping make our wedding a night to remember!

    Lion + Tiger's reply:

    Kayla,

    Thank you for so much for these extremely kind words. We were honored to be part of your day.

    Best wedding band ever!

    Do yourself a favor and hire Lion+Tiger for your wedding, it'll be the best decision you make!! We fell in love with them the first time we met them and saw them perform, we hired them before we even had a venue set! We ended up having to change our wedding date several times, and they worked through everything with us so easily. They are incredibly talented and wonderful to work with. They made our wedding so special, absolutely nailed the special requests we asked them to play, and all of our guests are still raving that this was the best wedding band they'd ever seen. I can't say enough about Jess and the band. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

    Lion + Tiger's reply:

    Thank you so much for this extremely kind and amazing review.

Thank you for following my crazy minute by minute schedule, you made me totally forget about it and we had the best night! They played everything live, kept everyone dancing and never even took a break. The ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception music were all amazing! We can't say enough good things about Lion + Tiger!

    Incredible!

    We just had Lion + Tiger perform at our wedding a couple weeks ago, and they were absolutely AMAZING! The dance floor was packed the entire time-our guests didn't sit down! They played great music that appealed to everyone. They had tons of energy and they were so much fun! Jessica also played guitar at our cocktail hour and it was beautiful. I worked directly with Nick and Jessica with all the planning, and they are probably some of the nicest people I have ever met. They are so professional and on top of everything. We have guests still asking who our band was because they were so impressed. It was one of the best decisions booking them!

    Best Band Ever

    By far the best wedding band I’ve ever heard, and I was lucky enough to have them for my special day! Lion and Tiger went above and beyond to make our wedding day special. Preforming at our ceremony and first dance song added such an intimate touch and preforming the best dancing music that brought the party to the reception. As a country music fan, I requested a few country songs to be performed at the wedding. Oh my goodness! They did an outstanding job, way better then it would have been from an Ipod. AND this was the first time playing them at a wedding. The energy they put into performing got the crowd up and dancing all night. All our friends and family are still talking about how amazing of a band they are! I would highly recommend booking this band if you're looking to dance your butt off at your wedding.

    Lion+Tiger, you guys are the best!

    Lion + Tiger = Nonstop dance party

    Where to begin... Bottom line is that Lion + Tiger absolutely ROCKED the house and I can't recommend them enough!! The band sounded fantastic and I'm not exaggerating when I say everyone hit the dancefloor as soon as the "first dance" ended, and then never stopped until lights were up. They did a great job of reading what the crowd was responding to and playing songs that kept everyone dancing. (Our venue manager commented that it had been "many years" since she'd seen the dancefloor so full!)

    Jess and Nick were also so easy to work with-- they answered all of our questions and easily accommodated our schedule of events for the evening, providing us and the venue with a detailed Run of Show to ensure that everyone was on the same page. They even learned a couple of songs for us, which made the day even more special. The music during the ceremony and cocktail hour was perfect as well-- beautiful and set the mood just right.

    Best decision!

    SPECTACULAR! Lion + Tiger was perfection -- even exceeding our expectations! Our guests are still RAVING about their non stop energetic performance. They played a great mix of new and old songs, alternating lead singers so the sound was always fresh. Our friends love to dance and L+T made sure they never got an opportunity to even consider leaving the dance floor by never taking a break themselves. L+T also played the music for the outdoor ceremony and cocktail hour. They do it all! They are organized, professional and just really nice FUN people.

    Wonderful, non-cheesy wedding band!

    We are so delighted we picked Lion+Tiger play at our wedding! From planning to execution, working with them was such a treat. Their fun vibe and wonderful music choices ensured all our guests were on the dance floor all night. A HUGE thank you to Nick, Jess and team for making our wedding night such a great party!!!

    Amazing!!!

    We booked Lion + Tiger for our wedding at the Kolo Klub in Hoboken and they completely blew everyone away. We were a little nervous about our guests having a good time since we decided to have a cocktail style wedding and many of our guests weren’t familiar with this concept but the band easily set the tone of the wedding and created such an awesome atmosphere where everyone was having a blast and dancing all night. They are able to nail a wide range of genres in their own style that appealed to everyone by having 3 members that can sing differently. They also did sort of a “piano bar” style during cocktail hour which was great and they quickly had everyone dancing after the speeches.

    As the night unfolded and since the wedding, we have heard nothing but amazing things from our guests for how electric the band was. They played their asses off (taking only one break for a 5 hour wedding) which is rare.

    If you’re considering booking Lion + Tiger for your wedding, you will not be disappointed!

    Want to simplify your wedding planning, guarantee that your music will be amazing, and make sure all of your guests have fun? Book Lion + Tiger! Seriously - we could not speak more highly of this band. Our wedding was weeks ago and our guests are STILL talking about how incredible they were.

    Lion + Tiger is an unbeatable value as everything you need is included: our ceremony music was beautiful, the cocktail hour music was excellent, and the reception was just plain awesome. They had every one of our guests out on the dance floor all night. They even learned a few of our family's favorite songs upon our request - and nailed every one of them!

    Besides playing awesome music, they are also awesome people. Both Jess and Nick (band owners) were super professional, responsive, and accommodating throughout the whole process. This was by far the best decision we made for our wedding.

    Do yourself a favor - stop looking at other bands, go see them live if need be, and then hire them - you won't be disappointed!

    If you're looking for a modern wedding band that can keep your guests dancing all night long then you have to book Lion & Tiger! It was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

    We knew we wanted a band instead of a DJ because we really felt it elevated the energy of the reception. We considered a few bands, but felt that they were all too traditional for our venue (we got married at a vineyard). We found Lion & Tiger online and really liked their style and song list. We had an introduction call with Jess and Nick, and clicked with them immediately. A huge benefit of Lion & Tiger is that they provide all of the wedding music - ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, plus they have their own sound person (something I learned later that not all bands have). They provide all this at a completely reasonable rate. After booking them we went to two of their performances and knew right away we made the right decision. They were so fun and talented!

    Working with Jess and Nick on all the wedding lead up was very easy! They were highly organized. We decided on having acoustic guitar at our ceremony, a singer and keyboardist for cocktail hour and the full band at reception. We chose All of Me by John Legend for our processional, I walked down the aisle to A Thousand Years by Christina Perri and our Recessional was You Make My Dreams Come True by Hall & Oates. Another wonderfully accommodating thing the band did was to accompany my step-mother's solo on guitar. I really felt they went above and beyond doing that!

    The band also learned and played our first song. We chose Perfect by Ed Sheeran and had taken dance lessons to choreograph the first half of the song. We were nervous about dancing to live music because we weren't sure the timing would be the same as the recorded version, but it was perfect! We got SO many compliments on the band from our friends & family. They had the dance floor PACKED! I can't recommend them any more highly! Book them!!

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Lion + Tiger. They made our wedding completely awesome and kept the dance floor full the entire night. It's been almost a month since our wedding and we are still hearing from guests who are raving about how terrific Lion + Tiger did at our wedding. One guest even told us -- "My daughter is getting married soon. If she doesn't have this band at her wedding, I am not going!". Now that's saying something!

    Now, the details. When my husband and I first started talking about planning our wedding, he was dead set on having a band. I was hesitant, because when you think of a "wedding band", you typically think of extreme cheesiness -- and there are PLENTY of these kinds of bands out there. However, this is not Lion + Tiger -- they are totally like a super cool band you would see out at a bar, which was exactly what we were looking for. Zero cheesiness. 100% awesome.

    From start to finish, both Nick & Jessica were wonderful to work with. They were incredibly responsive to our emails and questions and made us feel so comfortable with our choice. We went to see them a few times before our wedding and they were super welcoming and friendly. During our wedding day, Jessica played guitar for our cocktail hour and then we had the full band playing straight from dinner through our sparkler send off. They also were able to do introductions, set up for toasts, etc, so there was no need for an additional MC or DJ to be present. They did it all wonderfully.

    I really hope my friends end up picking Lion + Tiger for their wedding as well so that we can experience that level of fun in the near future!!! Thank you so much Lion + Tiger for an amazingly memorable night! You rocked!
