    Supreme Professionalism and Talent

    Probably the highlight of our wedding. The Collective is a supremely talented group with great chemistry and unbelievable energy. MJ (the lead singer) and her group were all so gracious and kind. They had every single guest on the dance floor. Leading up to our wedding, Ilana from On the Move scheduled multiple calls with us and the band to ensure they new our music tastes and what vibes we wanted at different parts of the night. We couldn't be happier with their performance and working with them was an absolute breeze. "Best Wedding Band Ever" is something we are hearing a lot of from our guests.

    Exceptional!

    Amazing to work with! We used a hybrid DJ with live musicians. We danced the night away! Captured the vibe and ran with out! Lisa/Ilana/Josh! Dream Team!

    On the moves the collective rocked our world!

    When planning our big day, we reviewed so many vendors but deciding on the entertainment was pretty easy once we heard The Collective in OTM’s Cabaret Room. Not only were we in awe from the moment we saw them, but we knew they’d be the perfect addition to our wedding day. The talent they offered was entirely unmatched from the musicians to the vocalists, everyone was absolutely spectacular. We were very excited to hear them perform all our favorite songs and dance along with us and all our guests. We knew they’d put on a show, but didn’t expect the performance of a lifetime… we’re still on cloud 9 weeks later. We couldn’t have asked for a better group, even our guests are still calling/texting us to rave about The Collective especially the trumpet player :) We hope we get to see them again soon and will certainly consider them for future events. We highly recommend The Collective for your wedding or any event if you’re looking for a night and performance to remember.

    The New Millennials were THE BEST!

    We booked The New Millennials from On the Move Entertainment after hearing them at a showcase in New York. They were absolutely amazing, looked gorgeous and made sure our guests all had the absolute best night of their lives! The singers were on the dance floor and interacting with our guests which we loved and they made sure to keep the flow of the night going smoothly. Every member of the band is beyond talented, we were told this band was “the best” that’s ever performed at our venue. Could agree more, highly recommend!!

    Absolutely Amazing! Should definitely book them!

    On the Move Entertainment was absolutely amazing. Not only did they roll with ups and downs of rescheduling, but prioritized making us feel comfortable and confident in their company. We booked them over a year in advance and they did not disappoint. Due to current circumstances we were not able to attend any live showcases but watched their videos and spoke to Darren and Scott who were great. Our wedding day couldn't have been more perfect they took our playlist into account but also read the vibe of the crowd to get the party going. EVERYONE commented on how amazing the band was- guests of ours were taking videos throughout the night. We were in awe of the voices of the singers and musical talent of everyone in the band. We cannot recommend them enough. We were overjoyed and grateful that they brought some sort of normal back during a time that's been so uncertain.

    The best!!!!

    We had the Troy Curtis Band at our wedding in September and I cannot stress enough how out of this world they were!!!! Picking a band can be so stressful since people often don’t know what they’re paying for- but from the time that we saw TCB perform in their cabaret space, we had our hearts set and they did not disappoint!! Gabe was a pleasure to work with and always made sure to periodically check in with us before the wedding day to go over logistics. Troy and the band were not only talented but fun and lively, keeping the dance floor completely packed the entire night! They were able to perform such a wide range of music including Sinatra, oldies, disco, rock, rap, and top 40. We gave them some song suggestions but for the most part put our trust in them to judge the crowd and base their song choices off of the energy- and they did not disappoint. Guests were approaching Troy for business cards all night and people are still telling us that this was the best band they have ever experienced at a wedding ! Troy Curtis Band will be the best decision you make!!

    Magical from start to finish, not your average wedding band - they know what to do and when and they do it better than anyone else!

    The New Millennial's set the tone (quite literally) for a magical evening, start to finish. Finding a show-stopping band was the #1 priority for us when we started planning for our wedding, and trust me, we saw just about every band in the NY Metro area. As soon as we saw TNM we knew we had to go with them— their energy is amazing, and there just aren't many, if any, bands who can play the full range of older wedding classics just as well as the newest dance hits and vice versa. We have not stopped hearing from our guests about how they are the best band they've heard.

    Most importantly, Darren and Gabe were a pleasure to work with and really got to know you so that the music for the evening had your stamp as a couple and didn't feel in the slightest bit like your average wedding run through. They know what to do and when (listen to them!). From moving ceremony music, cocktails to "hotline bling" on the sax and tracks, incredible vocals for dinner, to a literal nonstop dance party reception that felt like you were at a concert, our guests (some of whom are touring musicians) couldn't stop talking about how impressive they were. Go with them and they will blow your expectations away!

    Our wedding was a smashing success, and much of that had to do with the amazing quality and variety of the music provided by On the Move. Each musician was extremely accomplished, and, together, they were perfection. Everyone at the reception, ranging in age from nine months to 81 years, was dancing! We worked with Dani DeSantis, sales manager and superb vocalist, and Gabe Otero, Music Director, and they put together a wonderful string and flute trio for our 18th Century Chapel ceremony; a jazz combo for cocktail hour; and the nine-piece, knock-your-socks off The New Millennials band for the reception. What a blast! Dani and Gabe are consummate professionals, who made planning the music for the wedding easy and fun. They helped us put together a play list that spanned 8 decades, which kept everyone of every age on the dance floor. The band was excellent at “reading the crowd”, knowing when to play what, and keep everyone engaged. Best of all, the dancing went on much later than we thought it would—and the band played on, loving it as much as we did! We put a great deal of faith and trust in their ability to do this, and we were very glad we did! All the On the Move business cards that were placed near the bandstand were taken by our guests by the end of the evening. Two of them have already asked for contact information. Here is what some of them had to say::
    “The overwhelming reason for this email is to say, ‘WOW’. What a first-class affair! I was absolutely blown away by how impressive the wedding was…The band was especially excellent, and we had a great time dancing.” "It was a beautiful event from venues to the fabulous music- in both chapel and at the reception.” “The band was awesome!” [from our 15-year-old niece]. We could not have been more pleased or had a better time at our own wedding, and much of that was due to On the Move.

    Winston's Crew Collective exceeded all of our expectations. When my fiance and I got engaged, the band was the most important aspect of the planning process for us - before we even locked down a venue, we were researching and meeting with bands. As soon as we watched WCC's video highlights, we knew we had to meet them. So we scheduled an appointment with Darren (Manager) and Dannis (lead singer) and within minutes we were sold. We had already met with 4 other large bands in the area and had been to few showcases, but the feeling we got from WCC was indescribable - Dannis was cool, confident and unbelievably talented. They listened to what we wanted and worked with us to help create a vision for the day. We booked them a little over a year out, but over the course of that year they were always available to answer any questions.

    On the wedding day they rocked! They knew our tastes in music but also were incredible at reading the crowd and choosing songs they knew would keep the dance floor packed - which it was, all night long. They were total rock stars, our wedding was a month ago and our guests are still raving about them! Everyone keeps saying that they were the best band they had seen at any wedding or event - we are absolutely thrilled!

    As an event planner specializing in weddings, I have worked with countless bands and DJs for various events. In planning my own wedding, my husband and I knew we wanted an incredible band for our New Year's Eve wedding but needed a band that was adept not only in English, but in Spanish as well to help represent my husband's Dominican roots. We needed a band that had a wide repertoire to keep our diverse group on the dance floor all night as well as make the Spanish music feel just as special and authentic as the American music. I have worked with Darren professionally countless times and knew he was just the person to call... and he did not disappoint! Darren introduced us to Troy Curtis and The Millennials and we knew right away that they were a perfect fit. Darren and Troy's willingness to work with our specific needs, keep us in the loop for rehearsals and understand that we were not only throwing our wedding, but an incredible New Year's Eve party for our family and friends was above and beyond. Our guests still talk about how amazing the band was and compare their performance to a concert. Our dance floor was never empty and all of our guests felt comfortable, included and excited about the music being played. We cannot say enough about the band's energy, range, repertoire and incredible talent. Not to mention Darren and the On the Move team behind the scenes making sure no detail was overlooked. As an event planner, being able to take off my planning hat and actually be a bride was invaluable and I cannot thank them enough for giving me, my husband and our family and friends an absolutely unforgettable evening!

    Love... Love... LOVED WCC. They're young, high energy, and bursting with talent!

    After an exhaustive search for a wedding band, I was quite confident that I found "the one" as soon as I came across videos WCC--they are the band you want to keep your guests on the dance floor all evening. At one point, my husband and I took a step back to fully take in our reception, and all we saw were dozens upon dozens (upon dozens!) of our guests dancing, smiling, and singing along with the music. It was as if our reception was a nightclub, which we loved! Everyone was so happy and we were thrilled that our guests were having such a great time. A band can really make or break a wedding!

    At the end of the night, our guests would not stop talking/raving about WCC, either. Some accolades: "the band was a 10!" "the best band in New York City," "how did you find them?!" Not only would I recommend WCC, but apparently my guests would, too!

    Winston's Crew Collective was absolutely one of the best decisions we made for our Catskills' tented wedding 9/24/16. Their energy, professionalism and talent were incredible. The dance floor stayed packed the entire night and we are still getting compliments months later. We were also especially impressed with Dannis' beautiful voice and arrangement on the song we chose for our first dance (Coldplay's 'Til Kingdom Come). Give yourself one less decision to stress over -- WCC is the BEST.

    We don't even know where to being...EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT! The band Synergy played our wedding in NYC, July 2016!

    All of the musicians were out of this world!!! Everyone was so vibrant, energetic, professional and masterful in their execution! Oh and that first dance song!!!!! Everyone was soooo blown away, including Bryan and I as we were wrapped up in such an amazing moment of the night!

    Truly a big thank you to your entire team to keeping along with the timeline and making the evening that much more seamless with such a natural flow. Everyone can't stop talking about how great the evening was laid out from the incredible Sax Solo while we enjoyed the entree to the seamless flow into each fun and energetic dance set!

    Many of our guests are in the hospitality industry and everyone cannot stop raving about how incredible the band was! They truly made the night amazing and more than what we dreamed of! So many guests cannot stop mentioning they have never attended, seen, worked an event or wedding where the dance floor was so full all night!

    Also, the Jazz Trio that played during cocktail hour did incredible with the hip-hop requests and people cannot stop bringing up how amazing and unique this piece was! So perfect!!

    Thank you for putting this amazing band together for us and for being there to ensure everything was flawless! The entire night felt like a dream! Thank you for making that happen for us!

    We highly recommend On The Move!

    On The Move absolutely rocked our NYC wedding. Darren and Rocky wholeheartedly embraced our vision, theme and creative ideas - and took them to a whole new level. They totally BLEW. US. AWAY. They introduced us to our incredible band, Phyllisia & Beaute et Musique, who performed beautiful stripped down pop music during our ceremony and cocktail hour. They provided us the legendary New York drag queen Shequida, who brought the house down with her quick wit, hilarious performances and stunning operatic talents. They also rigged all the lighting in our venue (The Foundry, Long Island City) for an outdoor dinner for 100, and a dance floor meets laser show. It looked incredible. And finally, my husband and I performed a flash-mob style dance to Beyoncé’s “Crazy in Love” as our first dance. On The Move introduced us to two amazing dancers who choreographed the routine (and dressed as showgirl peacocks at the wedding) and coordinated our rehearsals with them. The crowd went wild. I can't recommend On The Move highly enough. They are absolute superstars and made our wedding the most memorable day of our lives. Thanks team!

    Dannis and the rest of Winston's Crew Collective did an unbelievable job making our wedding come to life. The band was awesome, played all the songs we asked for, and kept our guests on their feet all night.

    Darren was a pleasure to work with. We were very concerned about the acoustics at our venue, but with his help we brought in the right speakers and the guest could hear all the speeches and the music perfectly all night.

    I would recommend On the Move and Winston's Crew to anyone for their wedding!

    Do it. Do it now. Stop reading this and book On The Move immediately. Why are you still reading this? Book them. The band is incredible and will entertain the pants off you and your guests. They let you choose as much or as little of your own music as you like, play everything you ask for, and let you specify any songs you specifically don't want to hear. For instance, I would have thrown the entire cake at them if I had to hear "Shut Up And Dance With Me" at my wedding because that song is trash. They didn't play it, and the cake wasn't thrown!

    I hired Winston's Crew (part of On the Move) for my wedding in the Hamptons this past June. I actually found the band online, via an exhaustive search of NY Magazine's top NYC wedding bands. Darren was an absolute pleasure to deal with and based on my initial conversation with him and a few of their YouTube videos, we decided to book them sight unseen. And they were FANTASTIC. Seriously fantastic. Winston's Crew pretty much made the wedding. I told Darren that our goal was to have everyone on the dance floor for the entire night and that is what they delivered. They also do an awesome job of playing current music / top 40 which is exactly what I wanted. Across the board consensus from the guests was that they were the best wedding band anyone had seen. Oh, we also added in a violin player which everyone loved. I would highly recommend. I would book Winston's Crew again in a heartbeat!

    Working with On The Move for my wedding was an easy experience. Met with Darren, CEO, at his office to go over the options available to my wife and I. Darren was super helpful, attentive, responsive and was available throughout the entire process. He even showed up at our wedding venue to ensure everything was correct.

    My wife and I chose Synergy and it was a great decision. The music was awesome and they interacted with our crowd on the dance floor which got everyone dancing.

    Highly recommend On The Move for your next event!!!

    Going into the planning process, we knew that music needed to be a priority. On The Move was recommended to us by a mutual friend and we could not have been more pleased. All of our guests could not stop complimenting us on the band and music at our wedding.
    Darren was extremely responsive throughout the planning process and made sure that we got everything we wanted out of the ensemble. We were able to agree upon a budget and then fill in the elements to make sure we optimized the performance.
    Because Synergy is a combination of a DJ and Band, our personal music tastes came through the entire set list.
    If you want to make music a priority and have everyone on the dance floor at your wedding, look no further.
    We highly recommend the percussionist and the sax.

    Wow!!! That is the main word to use to describe a band like Winston’s Crew Collective. To say WCC is special would be a huge understatement. This band is incredible, outstanding, impressive, astonishing, and marvelous!! We couldn’t be more ecstatic that we had WCC play at our wedding. So many guests were blown away by their talent on our special day. Throughout the entire wedding and afterwards everyone kept saying how great our band was. We received so many text messages afterwards mentioning WCC. We would be remiss if we didn’t also mention Darren the President of On the Move Entertainment. He was awesome throughout the entire process. He is such an extremely cool guy and consummate professional. We also have to mention how talented Dannis is & how easily he could read the crowd. What an awesome bandleader! If you are in the process of looking for someone to play at your special event (especially your wedding) and have the opportunity to use WCC, you will be so glad you did so. A huge thank you to On the Move Entertainment and WCC for making our wedding at Guastavino's amazing!!

    Winston's Crew Collective was everything we were looking for and more. My wife and I were looking for a band with great energy and a diverse set list to perform at our wedding, and Dannis Winston and his team truly delivered on that for us. From Top 40 (house/dance music, R&B, etc.) to the classic oldies, they had the house rocking at our reception; all of our guests were on the dance floor nearly the entire night.

    They provided the music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception, showing their diversity and flexibility for different moods, instruments, etc. Throughout the planning process Dannis and the team at On the Move Entertainment (the management company) were extremely responsive to our emails and phone calls, and were always happy to have an in-person meeting to discuss details for the event or special requests that we had. Compared to other bands that we researched in the area, their prices were also comparable if not better than everything else we saw (for this caliber of band). Lastly, Dannis and his team were quick to proactively offer their insight and advice to the logistics of the event, which was incredibly helpful to us (these guys have done tons of these type of events, so they know what works).

    In short, we would highly recommend Winston's Crew Collective to anyone who is looking for fun, energy and professionalism in a band - we really can't thank them enough for the job they did for us.

    On the Move (and our emcee Joseph Zimmer) had our dance floor packed the Entire night. The combination of the dj and the three musicians (electric violin, percussion, and sax) really added a wonderful element. Highly recommend them.

    They also provided the lighting for our ballroom which added a nice update to the traditional look of the ballroom.

    We used the Longchamps Guitar Duo for the dinner portion of our wedding. My husband and I were looking for a guitar band that can play relaxing, non-invasive music that wouldn't disrupt the dinner conversation – but that would also escalate towards the end of dinner to get our guests pumped up for the dancing portion (we had a DJ for the 2nd part of the night). Ray and Steve absolutely knocked it out of the ball park! We could not have been be happier with their performance. Their skill level is excellent – they’re both superb guitar players & singers and we thought the quality of sound was top notch. Plus, they executed our vision perfectly throughout the dinner (they started off with mellow, dinner conversation music – and progressively upped the intensity to faster, fan-favorite hits that got our guests fired up). They also did a great job with the song selection – they followed our vision very closely but also threw in a few of their own songs to match the mood of our guests. When you first look at their pre-determined song list, it may look like some of the songs are on the older side (70’s / 80’s) but they took our requests for recent hits and executed them perfectly. The highlight of the night for us was hearing them play “Sultan of Swings” by Dire Straits (it’s my dad’s favorite song and it had a special meaning to us all). Anyone that’s familiar with that song knows that it’s a TOUGH one to execute (especially the guitar interlude) and the guys absolutely nailed it! By the end of dinner our guests were asking if we could just keep Ray and Steve for the dancing portion as well – that’s how much everyone enjoyed their music. Overall, out of all the vendors we used for our wedding, the Longchamps surprised us to the upside the most – they were very easy to work with, incredibly professional and most importantly, very skilled. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for great live entertainment.
