  The New York Players were hands down one of the best parts of our entire wedding weekend!! From the very beginning, Mike was a pleasure to work with, and we knew he would do everything he could to make our day as perfect as possible! We were very particular about our first dance as we had planned out choreography, and Mike worked with us through multiple phone calls and emails to make sure it went off without a hitch! The entire rest of the night they had the whole party on the dance floor. We received so many comments from guests about how amazing they were - the music was truly the highlight of the night! They certainly delivered on bringing the party to the best wedding ever, and I cannot wait to go see them in action again soon! They are the perfect choice for a wedding band, and you will not regret your decision!

  Hands down, the best investment we made on our wedding day. Worth every penny. To this day, our guests are still asking "about that band". They provided the perfect soundtrack to an already perfect night. A huge thank you to Mike Emery for his professionalism and guidance. We appreciate it! Colleen and Tyrone (2/13/16)

  The New York Players are made up of legend in the capital region. Long before we were engaged, we had heard of the players but did not see them live until a friend’s wedding in 2009. From that night forward, we were hooked! Having the players play at our wedding was such an important choice that we actually scheduled our wedding date around their availability. We were not disappointed.
  
  Our one regret is that we had to conduct our business over the phone (as we live in NYC) and we never got to hang out with Mike Emory until the day of our wedding. Needless to say we missed out big time on face time but it did not complicate planning at all. Mike is a wonderful to work with. He is accommodating, honest and makes planning the music for your day easy. He spends time learning about you as a couple and your musical preferences to customize your wedding. He made time for us despite our distance and hectic work schedules and we are so grateful to him for that.
  
  We used the players for our ceremony, cocktail hour and extended reception. Using them resulted in a wonderful soundtrack of our day. The singers, musicians, sound quality of their equipment were above any expectation I could have set for a band. Even in the Hall of Springs (which frequently echoes due to the high ceilings) were managed perfectly by the players. They were engaging to our guests, high energy the entire night and most importantly made us feel unique (even though they’ve done hundreds of weddings).
  
  The New York Players came dressed to the nines and ready to celebrate with us. It was a true honor to have them a part of our day.
  
  There are other great bands in the capital region but only The New York Players have that “wow factor”.
  
  We loved the players and are so thankful to them for being such an amazing part of our day!

  Simply The Best

  Can’t say enough, Mike was great at communicating our wants and needs and The New York Players delivered. Not only great musicians and singers, the group delivered the right songs at the right time throughout entire night. Professional from start to finish. We got so many comments about the great band and the dance floor was packed all night long….(loved the horn section) Mike made the entire night worry free and we would recommended the group without hesitation. Hire them now. GREAT JOB!

  Hire nyp asap!

  I couldn't recommend NYP enough! We actually didn't get a chance to see them before our wedding as myself and now husband lived in Seattle at the time, and honestly watched a couple YouTube demos and made the decision. We also had many friends recommend them from wedding they had gone too and NYP had played at. Our wedding changed about 5x due to COVID and NYP were amazing adjusting and even making last minute changes quite literally until the last day with us to accommodate. They literally saved my wedding. They had my guests being creative doing 'chair' dancing to comply with the no-dancing rules per the state, and they played great songs so people could get a 'live concert' that no one has even had in a while. Every single guest complimented us on them and said that made the wedding - they even let me sing at my own wedding. If we didn't have NYP- I dont think my wedding would have turned out how it went - we have no regrets and only amazing things to say. The lead singer was FANTASTIC and could cover such a wide range of songs.

  Highly recommend this band! They were amazing! They had the dance floor packed all night long at our 250+ guest wedding. Mike was great to work with and the band arranged to learn a couple new songs for our reception including our first dance song! We would not hesitate to recommend The New York Players for any wedding or reception style function, as long as you plan on dancing ALL night.

  Body and Soul was absolutely amazing! We have had so many guests tell us how great they thought the band was! The songs were fun and kept us dancing the entire time they played. The players interacted with both me and my guests and it was a blast! They also accommodated to each song request we gave them ahead of time and incorporated the wedding games we wanted to include that day. So glad we got them to be at our wedding! Thank you for helping us throw a great party!

  Mike and his band keep the party goin'. He also has suggestions in the planning stage to ensure that everything is communicated clearly and turns out the way you hope. I have received so many rave reviews from guests who were enamored by the band. SO SO good. Everyone seemed to have so much fun and the band just sounds phenomenal. Very professional. Very experienced. Very fun!

  100 stars!! Incredible band!

  What a fantastic band! Choosing Body and Soul was the best decision we made. We were absolutely blown away by how incredible Body & Soul was at our wedding. Blown away! Our guests danced the entire night and did not want the party to end! Every song was a 5 star performance. Working with Mike was a dream. He not only helped us prep for the wedding in an incredibly organized and fun manner, but he also became a friend and we looked forward to each of our meetings. The musicians and singer are so incredibly talented! They even learned additional songs that we requested. They were amazing and we couldn't recommend Body and Soul more highly.

  We hired Body & Soul for our wedding last weekend! Amazing doesn't even begin to describe them! They had the party going from start to finish. They provided us with the wedding reception we always wanted. They had everyone from our best friends to our grandparents on the floor. Not a bad review in the house. If I could I would hire them again, again for every party I have!!! Can't say enough about them!

  The New York Players were absolutely amazing on our wedding day!! We heard them play multiple times beforehand, and knew that we just had to have them for our big day. They certainly did not disappoint! From the beginning, Mike was so easy to work with...very professional, helpful, and quick to respond. They provided an extensive song list to choose from, and even allow you to request additional songs that may not be on their list. Our "first dance" song was not on the list we received, but I reached out to Mike and he said "no problem"! They performed an amazing rendition of the song, and we couldn't have been happier. Once the party started, it was right to the dance floor! We have quite a rowdy bunch, all of who love to dance. Not only did they know how to get things going quickly, but there were multiple occasions where a couple of the guys came right onto the dance floor with their instruments - it was AWESOME!! They kept the party going all night, and I don't think there was a second where someone wasn't dancing. I can't thank them enough for a job well-done! If you chose them for your big day, you definitely won't be disappointed!

  All I can say is, amazing! New York Players is absolutely the band to book, hands down. I've never had so much fun dancing in my entire life and what way to experience that than at my own wedding! Mike Emery is very professional and organized, and the band being so talented! I can't that you enough, New York Players! You helped make our wedding go down in history.

  Honestly, we can't say enough amazing things about The New York Players. They are a 10-piece band: 2 male singers, 1 female singer, 2 guitarists, 1 drummer, 1 pianist, and a 3-piece brass section (sax, trumpet & trombone). They provide all their own lighting, sound equipment, power, etc. Mike Emery, the band leader / drummer, really took the time to get to know us, the style of music we like, and truly made our reception a night to never forget. You'll get a copy of their setlist (which is HUGE) and can highlight the top ~50 songs you want them to play. And they'll even learn a new song just for you if it isn't on their setlist (they learned "Feel It Still" by Portugal The Man less than a week before our wedding)! We haven't stopped receiving compliments from our guests on how great the music and packed the dance floor was all night long. If you're in the upstate NY area, we promise you won't find a more energetic, fun, and downright entertaining band than these guys! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, you won't be disappointed!

  Kept everyone dancing all night

  Players Nouveau (from New York Players Entertainment Group) were a huge hit at our wedding! I've received so many compliments about how amazing the band was from several of our guests. They're very professional, punctual, and adaptive to their clients requests. I would strongly recommend using this group for weddings and other such events!

  My husband and I used NYP for our wedding and it was an absolute blast. People are still talking about how great the music and dancing was. Definitely a no-brainer decision when you are looking for music vendors for your big day.

  Talented and professional. The New York Players are hands down THE BEST BAND for your wedding. All of our guests were blown away. They handled the entire event. For one great price, The New York Players provided a string trio and microphones for the ceremony, a DJ for the cocktail hour and band break and 4 hours of the most incredible live music covering all genres and eras. What an amazing night! Having 3 talented singers also adds to there ability to perform any style of music. You will not find a better band. They were also very easy to communicate with and were quick and courteous in responding to inquiries. They were also very helpful in music suggestions for various aspects of the ceremony and in helping with the flow of the evening which was very helpful to us. We can't wait to go see them play out again so we can relive all of our wonderful memories from our night.

  Energizing

  The one thing my husband wanted when planning the wedding was a live band. We have heard the New York Players at other events so we knew. we had to check them out for the wedding. We researched a few bands and went to listen to some but none of them were as interactive and upbeat as this group! When we walked into see them, and saw the saxophonist on the floor playing with the crowd, we knew they would lead a good time! During the planning process, Mike was responsive and open to our thoughts. He and the band were willing to learn a few songs that weren't on their playlist for us for our ceremony and reception which made the day extra special. They did a great job for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. They had our guests up and dancing all night!

  Wow! is all I have to say about Body & Soul. I'm not easily impressed and Body & Soul blew me away. They sounded amazing. the videos on line really just didn't even come close. Our guests have all mentioned how great the band was. They had EVERYONE dancing. The saxaphone player was out on the dance floor for a solo. And the most memorable part- there was a huge storm during the reception and the power went out mid song. Without missing a beat, with no power or lights, the band stuck up and everyone kept right on dancing. Also I should mention they were very professional looking group, with the female lead singer in a gorgeous gown and completely done up make up and the men looking good on stage. And pre-wedding Mike had a few calls to go over all the details including pronunciations of people's names for the introductions. And they learned a few songs just for us. They really know how to be a wedding band.

  Body & Soul from the New York Players are such a highlight of our wedding. My husband and I are both musicians and, seriously, Body & Soul is the best. Throughout each phase from planning to performing, the New York Players were fun, professional, and immensely talented. The atmosphere they created was priceless; people continue to rave about them. The dance floor was incredibly energetic and wonderfully populated from start to finish. These guys are beyond worth the investment. We cannot recommend Body & Soul from the New York Players enough- book them!!!

  If I could give them more stars, I would. If you are considering a band over a DJ, New York Players are it. Don't even bother looking into anyone else. New York Players had EVERYONE dancing, even the guests that never dance or hate dancing. They were so much fun to work with along the way and the evening was a non-stop celebration. When I got engaged, they were one of the first vendors I contacted. I didn't care what the cost was, because all I wanted was for my guests to have the most fun celebrating our wedding. I would have worn a white paper bag as my wedding gown if it meant I could have them play at my reception.
  
  If you want your guests dancing all night long and enjoying themselves from the first second, contact Mike with New York Players. I can't say enough about them. They're incredible, amazing, fun, talented, professional, accommodating, and the absolute best!
