The barnstorm could not have been a better wedding band for us! I really appreciated how the band got to know us before by getting to know us as a couple and what our music taste was. When it came to the actual day the barnstorm could not have been better! They were really able to match the vibe of our guests and play all of our favorite songs. A highlight to my wedding night was getting to crowd surf to the song pink pony club! Again we could not have had a better experience with barnstorm. The one negative thing I can think of from the wedding weeping is guests wanted barnstorm to perform for longer!

Our wedding was the best concert!
The Barnstorm made our wedding the best concert ever! From the start their professionalism, prompt communication and accommodating nature blew us away. We asked for a few songs to be played that weren’t on their list and they were able to make our wedding song come to life- by the second song so many people came up to my husband and I saying they were the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding. We still get compliments to this day. They’ve made us feel like family and we were always in the best hands with all of them! For our wedding song a few weeks before they even sent us an acoustic version of the song so we could hear and practice our first dance. The level of thought and attention to detail is amazing and their talent is second to none. We can’t wait to go follow them around NYC because their energy is infectious and they were the highlight of one of the best days of our life!

10/4/25 Wedding
Our families don't really dance or sing, rock or jam…but from first note to last song, the incomparable Barnstorm had us all dancing and singing, rocking and jamming every moment they played. From acoustic guitar during the ceremony, jazz at cocktail hour, and a full out rock concert at the reception, the Barnstorm do it all so well. Take it from two newlyweds...you want the Barnstorm playing your wedding.

Thank you!!
We honestly can’t thank The Barnstorm enough for making our wedding night so amazing! They completely nailed the vibe we were hoping for and had everyone up dancing from the very first song to the very last. They played every song we requested, including our wedding dance song, which meant so much to us. It made the whole night feel so personal and special.
All our guests kept saying how amazing the band was, and we couldn’t agree more. They were super friendly, easy to work with, and just so much fun. You can really tell they love what they do.
If you’re thinking about booking The Barnstorm, don’t even hesitate—they’ll make your wedding unforgettable!

If there’s one thing you have to do for your wedding, it’s hire The Barnstorm!
Having a live band was our number one wedding priority—and man, did we find the perfect one! Being based in Brooklyn, it was important to us to bring a little NYC flair to our Upstate New York celebration, and The Barnstorm absolutely delivered.
From the start, Brooks was incredible to work with—clear, communicative, and so thoughtful. He even helped record our first dance song so we could practice with our dance choreographer in advance. We hired The Barnstorm for both an acoustic set during our ceremony and for the full reception, and they were phenomenal across the board.
The light setup, the sheer talent of every musician, and the energy they brought to the room were the special sauce that made our wedding unforgettable. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the very last. The band interacted with our guests in such a fun, personal way—our niece Cara got to sing Love Story by Taylor Swift, and our Bruce Springsteen–superfan Eileen counted down to Born to Run!
Our guests still tell us that their favorite part of the entire weekend was the band. We ended the night with an unexpected (and epic) crowd surf to Blink-182—truly the most memorable way to close out the day.
Thank you, Barnstorm, for making our wedding the most incredible day of our lives. It simply wouldn’t have been the same without you. Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding was hiring The Barnstorm.

Planning our annual vow renewals just to relive our night with The Barnstorm
We are completely obsessed with The Barnstorm! They are, without a doubt, the greatest wedding band in the world. From the very first note to the final song, they brought an energy that was absolutely unmatched. The dance floor was packed all night and our guests are still talking about them months later.
They’re insanely talented, wildly fun, and just so warm and genuine. You can tell they truly love what they do and they care deeply about making the night unforgettable, not just for your guests, but for you.
And not to be dramatic, but the bridezilla in me definitely came out when it came to the playlist, however the band handled it with such kindness and professionalism. They actually listened to what we wanted, learned and performed 3 or 4 songs just for us, and completely nailed them. That meant so much to us.
They made us feel like total rockstars, hyped the crowd like pros, and somehow made every moment feel both epic and personal. If you’re even thinking about hiring The Barnstorm, do it. You will not find a more fun, more talented, or more genuinely caring band. We love them so much and will be forever grateful they were part of our day.

The Barnstorm - 10/10 - Worth Every Penny!
The Barnstorm COMPLETELY exceeded our expectations and was hands down the highlight of our wedding! I can't tell you how many guests told us it was the best wedding band they'd ever seen - and we wholeheartedly agree.
Part of what set them apart was their fresh, unique setlist. Every song was recognizable and kept the dance floor packed all night, but they managed to avoid the "same old same old" that seems to plague wedding bands. Their song choices felt thoughtful and exciting while still being crowd-pleasers.
Beyond their incredible talent (the videos truly don't do them justice), the whole band is so kind, down-to-earth, and engaging. They seemed genuinely excited to be there and be part of our special day, not just going through the motions. They struck the perfect balance - incredibly talented without taking themselves too seriously. They got the crowd involved in really fun ways, including having one of our friends playing with the drummer for a good chunk of their set!
Honestly, we went back and forth on whether we could justify the cost, but hiring The Barnstorm turned out to be the best decision we made for our wedding. Cannot recommend them highly enough. Definitely book them if you can!

Event Director review of The Barnstorm Band
The Barnstorm put on a show at Gilbertsville Farmhouse like no other band has before! I am the Event Director, and scheduling/timing is important to the process. The show being put on and keeping people fully engaged is important. The entire process from the planning to the minute with me, to the performance to keep people involved all night long, was perfect with The Barnstorm. I will be recommending them to future clients, as I would love to be able to have them back and work with them again. Any couple looking for a band that does not miss a thing and runs a perfect night for you, then please reach out to this band and you will not be disappointed!

Simply the best!
The Barnstorm was, from start to finish, so much more than we could’ve imagined.
When we started searching for a wedding band, the Barnstorm stood out because of their communication. Brooks (and team) made it so easy to get a feel for the band, and we quickly knew they were our choice! Any time we had questions, and we had a lot, they were answered clearly and effectively, which really helped put us at ease. Planning everything else was stressful, but The Barnstorm’s communication and warmth really made us confident going into the day.
The band was not only incredibly professional and organized but also open and fun to work with. They took the time to learn our first dance song and performed it beautifully, making that moment unforgettable. Every song they played absolutely crushed, and the party did not stop from the second they started. Classics? They rocked it. Songs that came out weeks before our wedding? Amazing. Some surprises that made everyone really lose it? Absolutely.
The Barnstorm definitely didn’t sound like a “wedding band”; they were a full-blown concert experience for us, complete with JC jumping into the crowd getting everyone involved. The Barnstorm really did make our wedding day exceptional, and guests still talk about them to this day! The best recommendation I can say is that we have had multiple couples at our wedding ask us for their contact information for their own weddings, and without hesitation we’ve recommended The Barnstorm. Reach out; you absolutely won't regret it!

Want to throw an epic party that everyone talks about?
The barnstorm absolutely rocked! From the first song to the last, they had every single guest—young and old—out on the dance floor all night. Our wedding was their first time playing at our venue, and you never would have known it; they sounded incredible and brought the house down.
Their production team is top-notch, and even our venue coordinator was raving about how professional and easy they were to work with. On top of that, they went the extra mile and learned our first dance and parent songs just for us, performing them live—which meant the world. Add in their live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and it was the perfect soundtrack to the best day of our lives.
If you want your wedding to feel like the best concert of your life, book them immediately. Our guests, even those who are musicians themselves and the ones that previously claimed they “don’t dance at weddings”, raved about how great they were.

Best Wedding Band Ever
Wedding bands are a dime a dozen, but Barnstorm is not a wedding band. It's what made them all the perfect band for us. We loved their infectious energy and immense skills—we can't emphasize just how many compliments we got about both. Consider us groupies for life.
Beyond the night of, the band took the time to create actual relationships with us, and it made the party all the more special to feel like they were picking the songs specifically for us. We are so so grateful.

Hire this band
The one comment we get from everyone who attended - friends, parents, relatives - "YOUR BAND WAS AWESOME!"
They get people on the dance floor. You can tell that they're having fun, and it's contagious.
They were also great communicators ahead of time, and flexible with our space constraints. Their small ensemble did an amazing job with our ceremony music.

Insanely good vibes
This band was insanely good. The music was outstanding (whatever you are imagining, it's better than that), and I think maybe even more important the vibe-setting was perfect. The band really is the host of the whole event (which I did not even fully comprehend until the night of) and these guys are fun, upbeat and will match and up your vibe. People were sweaty dancing until the very end and begging for more.

Amazing band - made our night!
Booking the Barnstorm was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! They were incredible, from the ceremony and cocktail hour all the way to the end of the night. During the reception, they were so interactive with our group and made our reception so much fun. We had a blast singing along with them and joining in. All of our guests had a great time dancing, and it was hard to get everyone to leave the dance floor at the end of the night! We loved having Barnstorm at our wedding. They were also super easy to communicate with, and were always willing to talk through any questions we had.

The calm before the BARNSTORM
Man oh man do these guys know how to throw a party! If you’re lookin’ for an unstoppable band with dance floor energy that won’t quit, look no further. We were extremely stressed about finding the right band for my wedding because ultimately we just wanted everyone to have a fun time. I had so much confidence in The Barnstorm after I spoke with them that I booked them right away. I always felt that we were in the right hands, and they made everything SO effortless for me. As a bride who was planning everything, knowing that I could leave the music and the energy up to them really helped to calm my nerves. They did not disappoint. They have an incredible production crew who really leveled up and incredible performers who are both talented and entertaining. We have people still commenting on our band, and we had people on the dance floor until the last possible moment. It was everything we could have wanted. If you’re looking for a way to decrease the stress on your wedding day, these are the guys (and girl!) for you! We only wish we could get married every year to keep the party going!

The best part of our wedding!
When we first started wedding planning, one of the most important aspects of our big day was finding the right band. One that would keep everyone on their feet throughout the night and rock hard. The first band that came to mind was The Barnstorm. My husband and I used to go see them when they played Hill Country in NYC, and we knew they'd be exactly our vibe - with all of the songs we grew up loving but still knowing plenty of the classics. It wasn't long before we reached out to Brooks and started coordinating. From start to finish they were incredible to work with - from allowing us to use their microphone for our ceremony, to great communication and transparency all of the way through the wedding planning months, to being one of the best aspects of the entire wedding, the Barnstorm was by far the best and easiest decision we made. As a cherry on top, they even learned Blitzkrieg Bop for my mother-in-law to transition from her mother-son dance to kicking off the party - something she'll remember forever. All we heard for weeks afterwards was how much fun they had at our wedding, how unbelievable the band was, and how we basically threw a concert wedding - not to mention the crush everyone had on the lead singer JR. We are now lifelong groupies and the only thing I can say is if you are still up in the air about who to book to play your wedding, look no further than the Barnstorm!

I cannot express enough how epic The Barnstorm was at our wedding. Brooks was extremely communicative throughout the planning process. Their song choices, energy and crowd engagement were unmatched compared to other wedding bands we have seen. Our guests had nothing but amazing things to say about the Barnstorm and we are so happy we are now apart of the Barnstorm family! IF YOU DON'T PICK THEM FOR YOUR WEDDING, YOU'RE MISSING OUT

a DREAM come true!
Our wedding day was an absolute dream come true, and we can’t imagine it without The Barnstorm. They were the heart and soul of our celebration! From the moment they started playing, the dance floor was alive with our closest friends and family, all having the time of their lives. I’ve known Cameron, Hunter, JR, and Brooks since way back in 2008, catching their acoustic sets at Brother Jimmy’s on the Upper East Side. Even then, I knew I wanted them to play at my wedding someday, and they truly made that dream a reality.
The Barnstorm brought so much warmth and intimacy to our ceremony by learning and playing the special songs we requested. Cameron’s instrumental version of "MMMBop" (yes, from Hanson!) and "You'll Never Walk Alone" for our family processional made the ceremony so personal and unique. And the reception? Pure joy from start to finish! Our “song” is "Simply the Best," and Cameron and JR worked together to blend the sweetness of the "Schitt’s Creek" version with Tina Turner’s iconic style—which made for an absolutely unforgettable first dance. They learned a rare Elvis tune for the dance with my dad, which meant the world to him, and several other songs that we requested, which really made our set list feel so customized and sentimental.
The dance floor was alive all night, with The Barnstorm perfectly reading the room and keeping the energy high. From millennial favorites to timeless classics, they knew exactly how to captivate everyone. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about how incredible they were and how much fun they had! What truly sets The Barnstorm apart is their genuine connection with everyone in the room, all while making us feel like the stars of the night. They didn’t just play music; they crafted memories that we’ll cherish forever. We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day the best day of our lives, and we’re already counting down the days until we can see them rock out in NYC again!

Book this band!!
Booking The Barnstorm was hands down the best decision we made for our wedding. This band absolutely made the night. Every person at our wedding was on the dance floor and did not leave the entire night. Their energy, vocals, and crowd work were unmatched. Guests are still telling us that this was the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding. In addition to talented, the entire band was so incredibly nice, and Brooks was so easy to work with. We cannot wait until we have the opportunity to see / party with the Barnstorm again. If you are thinking of booking them for your wedding, please do it. You will not regret it.

The Barnstorm is "simply the best"! They are super easy to work with and Brooks is very responsive and attentive to any special requests/ needs. It honestly felt like we were working with friends. From the first to the last song. the band brought the energy needed for an extremely fun wedding. The dance floor was packed all night and we had so many people coming up to us remarking on how awesome the band was. The new sax player was a great addition and absolutely crushed some Springsteen!
I highly recommend getting this band for your wedding. They made our day so special.

The Barnstorm truly made our day magical and unforgettable! For any bride/groom that is considering live music - these are your guys! I've never experienced EVERY guest on the dance floor as I did at our wedding, and it is all thanks to the Barnstorm for getting (and keeping) the party going! Banger after BANGER. Like a wedding mash pit. But safer. No stage dives. But you’ll want to 😜. Best decision we made hands down. Love em!!!!!!

Wedding Experience
The entire Barnstorm crew is awesome. They played our wedding and could not have been more attentive to our preferences and logistics or had the crowd out of their seats for more of the night! The team is very organized and professional, they take a huge amount of pride in what they do and it shows. They did a great job learning our first dance song and even made us a demo for us to practice with. Their execution was perfect. They did a great job emceeing and keeping the night flowing seamlessly. And during the dance sessions, they sounded great and brought so much energy. All of our guests made a point of telling us how much they liked the Barnstorm. A true highlight of our wedding celebration and could not recommend more strongly

look no further than The Barnstorm!!!!!!
I looked forward to every Tuesday night when my friends and I would gather at Brother Jimmy’s Murray Hill to watch The Barnstorm and dance until we couldn’t feel our feet. I knew in 2017 that one day I would get married and I wanted to recreate this wonderful feeling that I would get every Tuesday night. WELL, joke’s on me because I got that feeling and more. I do not even have words for the atmosphere that The Barnstorm created on our wedding day. Leading up to that day, Brooks was INCREDIBLY attentive to the hundreds of questions that I bombarded him with on a daily basis. He walked me through pricing, how the first dances would go, what kind of music gets played during dinner – every question came with an immediate follow up and a “how are you doing?” – completely above and beyond what a typical wedding band would provide. And that was before our wedding day even happened! The day of was indescribable. The atmosphere provided by The Barnstorm was absolutely electric and had every single person on the dance floor from 8 pm to 1130 pm. I genuinely feel like our wedding was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The band is absolutely magnetic. To top it off about one week after our wedding, as we were reliving the day, I get a text message from a friend saying “we booked your wedding band!”. They are THAT freaking good. If you want to have the best night of your entire life PLEASE look no further than The Barnstorm.

Unforgettable Night! Best Band Ever!
I really don't know where to begin to express how great the Barnstorm is!!! Weeks after our wedding we still have friends and family reaching out to tell us how epic the band was.
I truly believe that keeping crowds excited and enthused is the key to creating an unforgettable wedding, one that will live a long time in the minds of those attending…. This is exactly what the Barnstorm encapsulates!
From first conversations to the last song, they delivered beyond expectations. Not only did they completely kill it during the reception, they played at both our ceremony and cocktail hour….it was truly a full experience they delivered. Thank you Barnstorm for being a HUGE part of the best day of our lives!!!

Best night ever!
We LOVED the Barnstorm! Originally witnessed them at a wedding in 2019 and booked them for our 2020 wedding. When we had to cancel and reschedule for 2023, the band was my top priority. They delivered as we expected and the photos from our wedding party say it all. They are professional, fun and bring the energy and good vibes as everyone says. I didn’t leave the dance floor all night and they let me join them on the microphone for many songs of the evening. So fun and not your traditional wedding band- book them and you won’t regret it one bit I promise!

Truly Most Amazing Band
Oh my lanta! If you want the best dressed group of darn good singers who come with professional concert level lighting & sound then this is the band for you. The videos on youtube and what they send you really don't even do them justice. The vibe and energy they bring is infectious to both avid dancers and shyer folks. We had friends who avoid the dance floor who couldn't help but inch there way up to the dance floor. They really create magic. If you are able to book them in time you will not be sorry and the relief of knowing you have stellar music & entertainment is the biggest weight lifted off your shoulders when wedding planning. We booked about a year and a half in advance...so get on it!!

The Barnstorm Rocks
There are wedding bands… and then there’s The Barnstorm! Brooks, Cam, JR, Hunter, Seth, Matthew, and Jamie are incredible musicians who know how to bring the party!! Our guests had such an amazing time rocking out with them as did we.
We stumbled across The Barnstorm as a recommendation from our Florist and we are so glad they had our wedding date open. Brooks was incredibly responsive during our early correspondence and throughout the time leading up to our wedding. This was super reassuring for us given how stressful it is to plan a wedding. We knew the entertainment would be taken care of and was one less thing to stress about.
The Barnstorm has such an extensive set list that had something for everyone to rock out to. They were also able to learn a few songs for our dances and they absolutely crushed them.
I would recommend The Barnstorm to anyone, any day. They are the best of the best and blow any other band/wedding entertainment out of the water.

Barnstorm for life
Ok to start, I saw Barnstorm play at a bar in Manhattan about 5 years ago and immediately told my sister - they will play at my wedding (whenever that is I hadn't even met my Husband at the time) so they literally made my dreams come true. Brooks is absolutely incredible to work with. He was super responsive and made the entire booking process seamless. Barnstorm absolutely crushed the entire night, from MC'ing to playing the best songs and keeping the crowd on the dance floor, it was an all around amazing experience. If you are thinking twice about booking Barnstorm, DO IT. Me and my husband are Barnstormies for life

Didn't miss a beat
I've looked for hours in the dictionary to find the words to accurately describe how insanely magical our wedding was and it's all because of The Barnstorm.
Sure my wife looked stunning, the food was great and we got to party with 200 of our closest friends but the minute it was time to hit the dance floor, everyone knew it was on. With the perfect mix of music from old school rock to Hip hop, country to Spotify's weekly hits, The Barnstorm had everyone up and out of their seats unlike any other band I had ever seen.
Time was flying by and everyone was having a blast with each song and mashup, not to mention their incredible light show, when all of a sudden the fire alarm in the hotel came on with 20 minutes left in the party. Our magical night was shaping up to have a terrible ending.
Without missing a beat, Brooks, Cam, JR and Hunter came gliding through the lobby with acoustics in hand. Brooks, seeing both my wife and me visibly bummed out at what was going on, shot us a look and said the party must go on... followed by a wink and a finger gun.
While fire alarms howled and first responders began flooding to the hotel, wedding guests and random hotel guests alike were serenaded to an impromptu acoustic jam session on the hotel's front porch (my wife even playing the trash can drums). After the mayhem, they extended our party for the time missed and The 'Storm headed back inside to close out the party. The magic was back and the dance floor was once again full.
I can't say how much it meant for us to have The Barnstorm play our wedding. Your search is over. Reach out to them today and know that everyone at your wedding will be talking about how much fun they had for years to come!

A Must Hire for Your Wedding
Our guests never left the dance floor. They were dancing and singing the entire time. Barnstorm was very easy to work with and we cannot suggest them enough. They made the whole process fun and personal.

Best Band! Book Now!
The Barnstorm is an absolute must for a wedding! Book them now! The band performed at my ceremony, cocktail hour, and wedding reception – I wouldn’t have had it any other way. On my wedding night, I wanted a full dance floor and the energy high. The Barnstorm had everyone out of their seat dancing the night away. Playing a wide variety of songs, the setlist transcended generations as both old and young guests lost their voices by the end of the night belting out the lyrics to their favorite songs. The band’s energy kept the crowd going all night, leaving wedding guests wanting more by the end of the celebration. The band was incredibly easy to work with, ensuring the bride & groom celebrated and danced to their favorite music, while seamlessly working with the venue, wedding planner, and other vendors to ensuring a flawless evening.

The Perfect Band
The Barnstorm played music through the generations with raw power and a lot of energy, and kept our guests on the dance floor all night. The familiar refrain from the night was “the band is amazing.” The Barnstorm also provided terrific acoustical music for the ceremony and cocktail hour. The band learned several songs that we requested, some just a month out from the event and nailed them. Working with Brooks was fun, easy and stress free. Brooks was quick to respond to any and all questions through voice or email and worked seamlessly with our planner at Castle Hill.

‘That wasn’t just a wedding, it was a palooza!’
I have never sworn by something as much as I now do about the Barnstorn and their insane ability to bring the best party!
It’s been 3 weeks since our wedding and I still get asked everyday who our band was and how they can find them!
Everyone was on the dance floor. That uncle or aunt you think will sit in the corner - I promise they won’t be!
‘Best party, not just wedding, but party we’ve ever been to’
‘Holy *hit that band was so amazing’
‘That was a palooza!’
‘Can we do this again next year? Don’t forget the band!’
… SO much more!
Invest in picking the best entertainment and ALL of your guests will never forget your big day or event!
Also, brides, if you want to be able to arrive to your party effortlessly, these guys make all of that happen! No stress, no worry actually at all. We never even thought about it, just had the most beautiful music for our ceremony and showed up to a private concert for our friends and family at the reception. The whole party also stayed all night and encored them TWICE and that would have continued if our venue wasn’t shutting us down ❤️
From start to finish their communication and organization are just as amazing as their talents!
Whole package!
I cannot thank you guys enough! We most definitely will meet again!
Hugs and many many many thanks from Colorado!

Best Wedding Band Ever
The thing we wanted most for our wedding was an incredible dance floor, where our family and friends could really let loose and enjoy themselves. We owe all the great vibes and energy, lost voices, and sore bodies to the best wedding band ever, The Barnstorm !! They were truly incredible. For how much screaming and excitement there was, you would’ve thought we had a celebrity guest performance!
Huge shout out to the talented band and their perfect music selection, the tech crew, and their fancy light show. It looked like an actual concert! The energy never slowed down, and when he end of the night came, and we were told to leave, the crowd wouldn’t stop screaming “ONE MORE SONG! ONE MORE SONG!”
Brooks, JR, Cam, Hunter and the entire crew from Barnstorm were so easy to work with, and even though we’ve known them for a long time - back to when they performed at Brother Jimmy’s before they became a 5 star wedding band! But they were always so professional, organized, generous, and flexible.
We worked with them a bit to put together a direction for the music but then we ultimately let them do their thing and trusted that we were in the best hands. They can perform such a range of music - from the classics, to mainstream pop, rock, rap, country - you name it. They hit all our favorites while playing off the vibes of the crowd to keep people from ever leaving the dance floor, which is their specialty.
Having them was the best decision we made. I could not recommend hiring them as a wedding band more. We love The Barnstorm!!

Book them!!! Seriously - if we hadn't have hired the Barnstorm our wedding definitely wouldn't have been as epic as it was. We had acoustic guitars for our ceremony, jazz for cocktail hour and they brought the party for the reception. They customized our first dance song for us and it was perfect. They had literally everyone at the wedding on the dance floor the entire night. I could go on and on. Just hire them! Thanks again guys :D

Probably the best wedding band...ever?
“Where did you find these guys?” I think we heard that more times than “congratulations” at our reception!
We were lucky enough to experience The Barnstorm at our friends’ wedding, and knew right away we HAD to have them at ours. Except, there’s no way they’re going to travel 800 miles to make it happen for us, right? Wrong. Despite the distance, they still took care of EVERYTHING and made it super easy.
And boy did they show up. One hit after another, they kept everyone on their feet ALL night. I’m not kidding when I say every single song was amazing - they know how to read the room and keep the energy going. It was awesome.
I can’t imagine what our reception would have been like without The Barnstorm - book them first, then worry about everything else!

Outstanding
The Barnstorm is an amazing wedding band!! We found them online and are so happy we hired them. Professional, sounded great, great vocal harmonies, and outstanding entertainment!! Everyone, of all ages at our wedding, loved them!! We didn't want a DJ but also didn't want the 'typical' wedding band. They are a dime-a-dozen. But not The Barnstorm!! They were just fantastic and helped make our wedding reception so much fun and so very memorable!!

"One more song!"
"One more song! One more song! Five more songs!" - words chanted by our 135 wedding guests at the end of the night. Has any one else ever had an encore at their wedding?! These guys are AMAZING. They are insanely talented, fun, and hard-working. The Barnstorm made sure everyone had the absolute best time at our wedding. We literally never left the dance floor. The Barnstorm also helped out the best men with their speech and learned our first dance song. They did a BEAUTIFUL job with the song we chose and we are so grateful! The band also agreed to learn and play a pop Christmas song for fun at our request (and they absolutely nailed it) - they really just want to make sure you and your guests have the most unforgettable night! Brooks was also incredibly responsive throughout the entire process. These guys aren't just talented -they are also genuine and kind. Even our photographer came up to me to tell me how exceptionally nice they are and how she wants to go wherever they go. Yes, they are that good. We can't thank these guys enough and hope to see them play again soon!!!

The best band EVER. BOOK THEM :)
Future brides and/or grooms the search ends here. Seriously. What two things do people remember about your wedding? MUSIC and food (good or bad). And you get what you pay for with both.
All night (and honestly still to this day) our guest were asking where I found this band and where they can see them again. Everyone was dancing the entire night and the tenge of music was exactly what we wanted from classics, pop and even some country!
These guys really love what they do and genuinely want to to give you the best party ever! They surprised us by learning our intro song that we assumed would just be an MP3 of the original! BUT my best memory of the entire night was a hybrid 2nd dance that transitioned from an original classic recording to live performance by Barnstorm. It was such a special moment that Brooks and the guys worked really hard on, and it was such a standout memory for my husband and I.
Book them. Just do it. You will not regret it!!!!

Barnstorm Band - Wedding Party 10/16/21
An excellent band. Folks, I don't like reading reviews and I despise writing them. Keeping this short and to the point: This group (Barnstorm Band) nailed it. They don't simply play a set-list of standard hit songs at you; This band puts on a thrilling performance tailored for you.
Fabulous ability to read the audience, and make adjustments on the fly. The group was focused on providing an electric environment for our wedding party, and they delivered. I strongly recommend the Barnstorm Band if you're looking for a high-energy, exceptional music/dance floor atmosphere.

The Barnstorm totally crushed it!!! We can't stop talking about them. Our friends are already planning on having a wedding reunion to follow the Barnstorm wherever they perform next!!!! We are obsessed. They chose the best songs (total mix - not typical wedding songs), engaged with the crowd, and had so much energy. WE LOVE BARNSTORM!!! book them ASAP.

The Barnstorm is amazing! Book them now!
There is not enough time to explain how amazing the Barnstorm is & how grateful I am to them for everything they did for us! If you’re reading this, you need to book them. Our guests are still raving about how awesome they were - they just have this energy that brings everything to life! Between the MC’ing, the band itself, the lights, sound, everything - it’s just unbelievable. The only regret you will have is not booking them so just do it. DO IT ALREADY!

Best Decision! Could not have been more perfect!
I truly believe we hired the best wedding band out there, The Barnstorm. They traveled all the way from New York City to Indiana and they absolutely brought the party with them. One thing every guest at the wedding could agree on is that the dance floor never stopped. Blink-182, Whitney Houston, Taylor Swift..you name it, they can do it. Not to mention they’re one of the most dapper wedding bands I’ve ever seen - they came dressed in custom black tuxes covered in a dusty pink floral pattern! Our wedding would not have been the same without them - highly recommend!

Cameron and Brooks have been performing at our charity outing for years.
They are terrific and we have them back every year because our supporters love the terrific music and great feelings they bring to the event.
We will continue to have them at our event in the years ahead.

No other word but AMAZING
Do not hesitate hiring The Barnstorm! They were beyond incredible and made our entire wedding. It was a small wedding of 70 people and I warned them ahead of time that people may not dance. I thought it was going to be a low key wedding. That is not an option with this band. All guests were on the dance floor. My husband, that I’ve never seen dance, was even on the dance floor. We ended the night singing on stage with them. Not only are these guys so much fun, they were responsive, respectful and great to hang out with. They played acoustic at our welcome party & ceremony, jazz for cocktail hour, and full band for our reception. Our guests are still talking about what an incredible band they were!

Nick + Audrey Wedding - 8/13/21
Nothing that we can write in this review will do justice to the unforgettable experience we had at our wedding with The Barnstorm! In search for our wedding band, we saw The Barnstorm play one night at Hill Country BBQ and knew immediately afterwards we needed to have them at our wedding. Their music is FOR EVERYONE - rock, pop, 80s, 90s - you name it, they play it! After the wedding, we've had so many of our guests comment on how crowded the dance floor was the entire night. The only thing that may be better than their actual music are the personalities of all the band members - from the moment of initial contact, they were incredibly flexible, nice, and genuinely excited to be a part of our experience. They navigated the pandemic wedding experience with us in such an amazing way, and we're so thankful we chose them to a part of our day. We're hoping to have another excuse(s) in the near future to invite The Barnstorm back for more fun!

The Party of a Lifetime
There is absolutely nothing like a Barnstorm wedding. We had set out looking for a cool, less traditional wedding band; what we got was the party of a lifetime!
After a recommendation from our venue, we went to see them play at Hill Country BBQ in NYC. From the very first song, my husband and I knew we had to book them. We had an unbelievable evening, and we couldn’t wait to bring that experience to our loved ones at our wedding!
I’d never seen so many people instantly gravitate to the dance floor when the Barnstorm kicked off the reception. We heard raves about them all evening from our guests and even our other vendors; and the raves continue to this day!
In addition to their talent, they are also an incredibly cool group of guys, a breeze to work with, accommodating and communicative. Out of the thousands of decisions that were involved in planning our wedding; booking The Barnstorm was absolutely the best one!

Best decision of my life, after my husband ;)
Ladies.. if there is any doubt in your mind about hiring The Barnstorm for your wedding, let that s*** go and book them NOW. These guys are not only the greatest, coolest, most down to earth dudes you'll ever meet, but truly the most talented band out there. We had seen then play at my brother's wedding a few months back and knew that we had to have them. We didn't even suggest songs to them.. we literally just told them to play whatever.. and they were PERFECT. Not only that, but the song that I chose for my father/daughter dance was a Darius Rucker song, and quite honestly I like the Barnstorm version better. These guys kept the party going all night... one one wanted to leave the dance floor! The chants of "one more song!" at the end of the night was fitting since all anyone was talking about was how incredible they were. To this day, almost a month later, I still have friends and family asking for their name and contact info. These guys are not your average cover band, and certainly not the band that your old teacher plays in and you see all over town. These guys are the real deal.. they play at major super bowl parties, for celebrities and high end parties. You are actually doing yourself a major disservice if you don't reach out, at the very least. I promise you. As someone who is a perfectionist and wants the best of everything (ugh, I know!), these guys are a must-have for your wedding. Must. No questions asked. Sorry not sorry.

The Barnstorm was the best wedding band I could have ever imagined and more. They were so responsive in the planning process, super easy to work with, and played all the hits. They made the night an incredible party and I could not have chosen a better band to make the night what it was! It was everything I dreamed of and more!

Amazing is an understatement! Book them now!
This review is wayyy overdue! And so easy to write! If you are considering booking Barnstorm and haven’t already then you should stop reading these reviews and go email them now to book!! They are so freaking talented that you feel like you are at a concert and just smiling until the last song! Actually, we were a bit sad that they ever had to stop playing and just kept wanting them to play into the late hours of the night! We got married during Covid and had the earlier 50 person restrictions, etc...We ended up going from an 8 piece to 4 piece since we were having fewer guests. They were so graceful with the changes and uncertainties, possible postponing, new date and back to the original date ...if they were frustrated with our back and forth we would never know. They truly were about making life easier for the Bride and Groom so we could enjoy our day with no added stress and had some great advice that helped refocus us in the chaos of wedding planning. Super amazing, chill and down to earth people! We felt no need to micromanage the songs they played during the evening probably because we got to enjoy them at a friend’s wedding a year prior and from then on had our complete trust in song choices and ability to read the audience! They also so gracefully learned 4-5 songs for our day, which we appreciated! Our guests to this day keep raving about their talent and kindness! Actually, a family member is getting married this summer and is planning on booking them! So we get to enjoy them a 3rd time at a wedding!!! With Covid restrictions and the uncertainty of what dancing will look like in the future I would recommend Barnstorm because even if you can’t dance you will be able enjoy live music from a truly talented band and your guests will be entertained; able to watch a great performance instead of staring at a Dj.. a bit more high action I’d say! We also had them play our ceremony with an acoustic set and simply amazing! Book them now! I promise, you will not regret!!!

The actual best band
The Barnstorms are an incredible band - the type of band we would try to see live even before we got engaged. And in fact the first time my husband and I happened to see them, I turned to a mutual friend who was with us and said “if we get married, this is the band” and then 4 YEARS later when we were engaged, I made good on that! That’s how fun and memorable they are as a band. But on top of being so talented - with their lively and unique twists on all the top party songs and more - they are the best vendor we worked with in planning our wedding. So accommodating, organized and friendly. It really felt like working with friends vs. an anonymous vendor type. I honestly think they are the best wedding band in the biz - if you’re even thinking about booking them, you have to do so fast because they’ll get snapped up!

Such a fun band!
The Barnstorm played at our welcome party the night before the wedding, and they really set the tone for the whole wedding weekend. Amazing song list, such great energy, and they kept the party going the whole night! So much fun!

Barnstorm is a party!
I hired Barnstorm after seeing them perform at a NYE Party. They were so much fun we needed to book them for our annual fundraiser. They were amazing at taking requests prior, to collaborating across the board. Everyone danced all night and talked about them for days. If you want a FUN band, no one's better than Barnstorm!

Barnstorm is Best in the Biz
Have seen the Barnstorm play many times in a variety of locations, including a couple weddings. We ended up having a Zoom Wedding on my in-laws front yard. Cam played acoustic and was a great addition to the day. Highly recommend for any need - full band, small group or even solo.

Amazing -- Barnstorm Brings the Party
The Barnstorm were completely awesome. They literally brought the party... performed for ~3 hours straight and had everyone dancing -- like, truly dancing, not just that sort of awkward uptight wedding dancing. They were so. much. fun. Many people told us afterward that it was one of the most fun weddings they've ever been to, and no question it was in large part due to The Barnstorm. They were also great to interact with in the lead-up, super flexible with our plans, performed a special-request song for a surprise dance, and didn't even mind losing a few bucks to the groom in a late night game of dice. Nothing more to say except that they were amazing and I wish we could relive the whole experience again and again :-)

Used them for a party
I was referred to Barnstorm by a friend who I know does fun really well- so had high expectations and they flat out delivered. Had them for a party and they were awesome. They had such great energy- and connected with the whole crowd in such a warm and real way. They have great range in terms of what they play- and did an unbelievable job of reading the crowd and knowing what to play. We had a diverse group in terms of ages at the party and they connected with all. They had everyone signing and dancing and they were having fun with all of us. I am still getting compliments from friends as to how great they were- would definitely recommend them.

The Barnstorm is absolutely worth every penny
Highly, highly recommend the Barnstorm for a wedding or any event. We hired them for our wedding the last weekend of September 2019 in Montauk, and they absolutely put the night over the top! First and foremost, they are a great band; not your typical “wedding band”. They aren’t cookie cutter (i.e. you won’t hear them playing the same songs that you hear at every wedding) and they certainly aren’t stiff. They vibe off each other and the room. They are legitimately having a fun time performing with each other and that permeates throughout the room. Everyone will be up dancing, singing, drinking, and sweating their butts off, and having a blast!
What to expect:
-Professionalism. Brooks responds promptly and covers all bases. No detail will be overlooked during the planning stages. Day of, they get to the venue well ahead of time to sound check and make sure everything is sounding perfect. During the event, they are great at providing direction and making sure everything runs smoothly.
-Personalization and flexibility. The guys truly care about making the event as special as possible and are very open to any idea to bring the event over the top. In addition to our “special request” songs (which they nailed) the band was incredibly gracious at my request to join them onstage to “surprise” my wife and guests by playing a song along with them. It could not have gone over any better…my wife was thrilled and it absolutely brought the house down!
-Party! They know what will get everyone up and moving. Their catalogue of songs is well over 200 and it includes all decades and genres. Multiple guests commented that they didn’t want to leave the dance floor to get dessert or go to the bathroom because every song was such an amazing jam.
The Barnstorm is absolutely worth every penny. We knew they were the right band for our wedding the first moment we heard them at Hill Country, and we feel so lucky and grateful to the guys for playing our wedding. On top of it all, my wife, friends, and I get to continue to relive that night by seeing their gigs throughout NYC! We simply cannot say enough great things about The Barnstorm.

Way better than a typical "wedding" band
Barnstorm isn't a "wedding" band. They're a band. A really great band. And that makes them the best wedding band, in our opinion.
We went to one of their live shows before booking them to play at our wedding and we knew immediately they were perfect. The band is 7 guys who you would want to be friends with -- which makes them blend in seamlessly at a wedding. Their range of songs is awesome. Everyone raved about their playlist, including a few of our guests who are huge music snobs.
They also did an awesome job of getting everyone involved. People were dancing, singing along, even getting a second or two on the mic. It was like having a private live show at our wedding, which we loved and all of our guests loved. The vibe is much better than other wedding bands we've seen.
On top of that they were incredibly easy to work with and accommodating. Brooks never made us feel bad for requesting songs, no matter how random, and they learned anything we asked them to that they had the right instruments for.
Overall it was an awesome experience and we could not possibly recommend them enough. If every wedding we go to in the future has Barnstorm as the band, we'll be thrilled.

Most fun, most talented and best looking wedding band EVER
The Barnstorm was top notch in every aspect. They were hyper responsive and collaborative during the planning process. They put on an amazing performance and are so fun to watch. They have an amazing set list that crosses generations and genres and pull it off flawlessly. I would HIGHLY recommend them for any wedding. I never left the dancefloor for my entire reception i was having too much fun with this band and had nothing but postiive feedback from all of my guests!

The Barnstorm - perfect for your wedding!!!
Our wedding would not have been the same without the Barnstorm. Their acoustic set for the ceremony and cocktail hour was perfect and really capture the moment and the magic of our venue. Their energy MADE the party. The reception was perfect and I’ve never seen a dance floor that full!! We also chose to have a female singer as an addition to the regular band and she was phenomenal. They were the perfect choice for our wedding and we couldn’t of asked for anything better.

Wow!!! This band is the reason my wedding was beyond perfect.
This band will truly blow your socks off! I shouldn’t have rented chairs because nobody sat in them! My guest and I had the time of our lives listening and dancing to the Barnstorm all night long. They were a pleasure to work with and responded immediately to any questions or concerns I had. They were set up and ready to play well before my start time and also did a fantastic job contacting my venue to make sure that everything would go smoothly. To simply put it this is your band and don’t look any farther!

Hiring The Barnstorm was the best decision we made throughout our entire wedding process.
There aren't the right words in the english dictionary to express how amazing The Barnstorm is. When it came time to book vendors for our wedding, our number one priority was to find a band that would make sure our guests had the time of their lives at our wedding. The Barnstorm was able to provide just that. We couldn't get our guests to sit down for dinner because the band played the most incredible teaser I've ever heard - American Girl and Signed Sealed Delivered. Their energy, professionalism, and talent was boundless. Since our big day, our friends and family have NOT stopped talking about the band!
Hiring The Barnstorm was far and away the best investment we made for our wedding.
Since the moment I met my husband he would tell me about this amazing band he used to listen every Tuesday night in NYC, and we would joke about one day bringing them to Cartagena, Colombia for our wedding. Once we got engaged we planned for The Barnstorm to be our wedding band and it was the best decision ever. Having guests from all around the world, we were nervous about entertaining everyone and fulfilling all different music tastes. However, if there’s something I am sure is that when The Barnstorm were playing absolutely everyone was happy and on the dance floor. I can’t thank them enough for being part of our magical day!

Best Wedding Band
Musical Passion & High Energy is how I describe these guys. That’s what these guys bring. I’ve known them personally as friends for years & when I decided to get married they were a no brainer to have perform at our wedding. You can’t find a better group of guys & they’ll help you bring down the house at your wedding. Lots of fun. Lots energy and memories that will last. You will not be disappointed.

Doesn't get much better
My wife and I couldn't have asked for a better experience with The Barnstorm. We got married at an old music hall and we knew the band was the most important decision we had to make. These guys are the perfect mix of classy and fun, if that makes sense, they played non-stop for 3 and a half hours. We got married 9 months ago and I've already had 3 guests ask for their contact information because they wanted The Barnstorm at their wedding, they were easily the highlight of the wedding, especially when they let my wife and I join in on Toto's "Africa".
5 Stars isn't enough for these guys.

5 stars isn't enough
I wish there was a way to give even more stars to the Barnstorm for everything they did to make our wedding absolutely perfect - I seriously cannot recommend the Barnstorm highly enough. From the moment we booked them, they worked seamlessly with our entire planning team to execute a flawless night for my husband and me, and our 200 guests.
I had many (many) guests tell me after that the Barnstorm was the BEST wedding band they'd ever seen, and I would agree 100%. They made our night everything we wanted and more - they played straight from 10pm - 2am.
One of their best qualities is their ability to read a room, and to play song after song that appeals to guests of all ages. In the 4 (straight!) hours they played, I can't think of a single song where people weren't on the dance floor, singing and dancing and just having a great time. From 70's hits to a (hilarious) Britney Spears cover, to hip-hop and classic rock, each song they played was better than the last.
Their energy is incredible, and the way they interact with each other and the guests made the whole experience that much more memorable. They were so much more than just a typical wedding band, they really felt like they were part of the party and were there to celebrate with us, and we loved that they seemed to be enjoying themselves too!
I could not imagine any other band I'd rather have at my wedding, and can't say enough wonderful things about these guys. They read the crowd and always seemed to know exactly what song to play next to keep everyone happy and on the dance floor.
On the planning and logistics side, they were super easy to work with, extremely flexible, and totally accommodating to all of our needs and requests. They even worked with our dance instructor to find the perfect tune and pace for our first dance - above and beyond.
As the bride, I didn't worry about a single thing related to the music and the band - they took care of everything and it showed - the night was perfect.
I could not have asked for a better band, and am so thankful to the Barnstorm for making our wedding absolutely perfect.

The not cheesy, not "wedding band" band.
We spent hours looking at videos, talking to bands, and even going to one of those sheisty agencies. Save yourself the trouble, and book the Barnstorm, immediately. They absolutely crushed our wedding in Montauk, were super easy to work with, and were probably the best decision we made in all of our wedding planning. Plus, they're super fun guys (they even let me butcher one of their songs with them, karaoke-style on stage), and did a great job of reading the guests and getting folks out on the dance floor when we wanted them to be, and then bringing it down a bit during the quieter moments. If you do not want a "cheesy" wedding band, these are your guys...we felt more like we were at a super fun concert than at a wedding. Cannot recommend them highly enough!

Best Decision We Made for Our Wedding!
DO IT! Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding was hiring The Barnstorm. Our main priority going into wedding planning was having a band that illustrated our love for music. During the planning process they were incredibly helpful and responsive. Originally we hired the band for just the reception but about a month before the wedding we changed our minds to have them for the ceremony and cocktail hour. They added such class and created an amazing atmosphere, I was so glad we made that decision. They also learned three new songs for us no problem! During the reception they got everyone involved. I think it’s incredibly important that you vendors have fun at your wedding and these guys sure did which got everyone else so pumped up. We talked them up so much to all our friends and family and everyone said they exceeded their expectations. They are so genuine and we felt we walked away from our wedding with new friends.

Words can’t describe how incredible this band was at our wedding
Simply put, The Barnstorm put on a show for the ages at our wedding. If you are thinking of hiring these guys, just do it, period. They had every single one of our guests on the dance floor from start to finish. “This is the best band we’ve ever seen at a wedding, and we’ve been to a LOT of weddings, where did you find these guys?!” was the question we were getting throughout the night. The Acoustic cocktail hour set was also an incredible hit with the guests as it set the tone for the whole evening. Before the main event even started, we had guests commenting about how awesome the music and setup was. We met these guys a year and a half ago in NYC and knew from the get go that their personalities, music, and style was exactly what we wanted at our wedding. Whether it was 90s rock, oldies, or the new hits, they brought the house down all night and had something in store for everyone. We worked with Brooks throughout the process and he was incredibly down to earth and responsive to a few requests we had along the way. And when it came to our first dance and mother + father dances - it could not have gone more perfectly. The Barnstorm made our wedding day a thousand times more special than it already was - and we are so thankful to have had them play for us on a day that we will remember forever!

We chose The Barnstorm to be our wedding band early on and never looked back. Not only are they the perfect party band, but they are reliable, punctual, and professional. You want your first dance to be a song they’ve never played? Cool, they learned it for us. Bride has to turn around halfway down the aisle because her veil falls off? They’ll keep that ceremony music playing while everyone nervously shifts in their seats and the groom assures them she’ll come back (she did). Not only does The Barnstorm rock (they really do), and not only do they guarantee that your party will be the best one of the year (it will), but they are exceptionally nice, fun, and easy to work with. They are everything you want in a wedding vendor. They seamlessly take care of the entertainment so that you can worry about all the other important stuff like whether people will notice the difference between off-white and cream. I’m not going to write “if you’re even questioning it, book them” because that would just be too cliche. But if you’re even questioning it, book them.

Don't hesitate, book The Barnstorm. They are worth it. We booked them to play our wedding reception and acoustic guitar at cocktail hour. The first thing guests said to me at cocktail hour was how amazing our musicians are - a good sign for things to come! During the reception they MC'd it perfectly, played our first dances songs, and then REALLY brought the party. They are incredible, and had every generation up on the dance floor. I also appreciated how easy they were to work with. Brooks was so responsive and helpful, answering all of our questions and putting us at ease. Thank you so much guys!!

Let me first begin by saying it's been over a month since our wedding and our guests are still raving about the Barnstorm. We decided to work with their band after hearing them at one of their regular spots. The bar was singing along with them! From the beginning, Brooks made the process incredibly easy and seamless. He was very responsive to emails and open to trying out some new songs that we had requested for a few of our dances. These songs ended up being some of the most memorable for us, having been personal selections and executed so incredibly well. They are not your typical wedding band, but that is what we loved. The group has been playing together for years and have such a great understanding of their crowd. We didn't pick a list of songs to play and just let them do their thing. They performed a great range of songs. They are super talented and passionate and it is very apparent while watching them perform. Their energy was incredible. Our guests ranged from 2 years old to 89 years old and everyone was dancing. My great uncle (87 years old) even threw down his cane and danced with both arms up in the air! We could not speak any more highly of the Barnstorm and would recommend them to anyone looking for a band! To think we almost considered a DJ....

I heard about The Barnstorm because they actually performed at my brother's wedding last year. We had such a great time with them that they were the one thing that I knew I wanted when my wedding came around the following year (July 2018). We could not be happier with everything they did to make our day so amazing. They performed our ceremony beautifully as well as the cocktail hour. At the reception, all of our guests were blown away by how talented and fun all the guys were. We had a daytime wedding but it was still a full on dance party and they were right there in the middle of it. I am not usually a big dancer, but when the Barnstorm is playing you can't get me off the dance floor. Brooks and the guys are the best to work with and they performed our special songs perfectly. My entire family (and my husband's family now) are huge Barnstorm fans and we can't wait to see them perform again!

Are you looking for a super fun, energetic and talented band to perform at your wedding (or any party)? The Barnstorm is that and sooo much more! We had an absolute blast dancing the night away. The booking and communications couldn’t have been easier and they are totally open to customizing special parts of your night. We can’t wait to have another party so we can hire them again!

Barnstorm = Amazing! They made our wedding reception an absolute blast and we received many compliments from our guest on the music. Barnstorm has a very wide song selection, is very high energy and got everyone grooving to the music in no time. They were great emcees for the night and were very accommodating with requests - they even let my wife and I and a friend of ours sing some songs during the reception! On top of all that, these guys are very professional, responsive and courteous. It was an absolute pleasure having them perform at our wedding and they were key to making it such a fun event. If you are planning a wedding or hosting a party (or other major event), you really must hire them to play. Thank you so much guys for making our wedding such an awesome party!!

The Barnstorm is still the talk of our wedding! Our guests can not stop raving about how much fun they brought to our special day! They were incredibly helpful leading up to our wedding day with suggestions of timing and schedule. They are quick to reply and were beyond professional and helpful on the day of the wedding. To say we highly recommend The Barnstorm is an understatement! Book them now!

Our wedding was at the Handsome Hollow, a beautiful restored barn in the Catskills, and it was a literal barn storm of a dance party. I'm actually surprised the barn is still standing after what took place that day, all thanks to the Barnstorm. The dance floor was packed from start to finish and all 150 guests, the vendors and even owners of the venue left agreeing that the Barnstorm was the best wedding band they had ever seen. They performed everything from Tom Petty to Taylor Swift, some Elvis and Third Eye Blind. At one point I looked up and they were even rapping Ludacris "What's Your Fantasy" from the balcony above, simply amazing. This band is a must have if you want to take your wedding to another level. Throughout the whole process, everyone in the band was a pleasure to work with. They were responsive and extremely accommodating, at no point did we have any doubts that they were a perfect fit. All in all, the Barnstorm rocks. They will leave you and your guests with an unforgettable memory of the most amazing night of your life.

We hired The Barnstorm this past November for our wedding. They were amazing to work with! Patient, accommodating, perfect laid back professional personalities that you will find refreshing when it comes to wedding planning! Their sound is pristine, what you see on their video is what you get. They play EVERYTHING! Everyone from the 5 year old child to great-grandma was happy with the music. Whenever we see someone who attended our wedding they tell us it was the most fun they have ever had a wedding with compliments to the band! Our dance floor was never empty, our guests literally danced the entire night. Thank you Barnstorm for making our day so incredible for us and our guests!

I wish I knew the words to explain how grateful and honored my wife Kristy and me were to have this epic band be part of our perfect wedding day. This band is not only phenomenal on the stage but off as well. They are the most accommodating and gracious people you will ever meet. If you need a band to take your party to the next level hire these guys RIGHT NOW. Thank you so much Brooks Lee Wood and the rest of your band for giving us everything and more to make our night the perfect one. You gained a whole lot of fans for life and two extremely thankful and happy friends. We love what you did for us and want you to know that you are now forever part of our lives. We can't wait to see these guys in the future and sure as hell will do whatever we can to make sure the world knows how lucky they would be to have you part of their special day too.

My wife and I really can't say enough about the Barnstorm - these guys are truly AMAZING across the board! If you're looking for a classy, young, incredibly fun band for your wedding -- look no further. Every one of the band members is extremely personable and talented, each bringing a different element to the group. The Barnstorm played light music at our ceremony, then amazing acoustic through our entire outdoor cocktail hour, and saved the best for last as they absolutely rocked our reception at Bedell Cellars! As with every bride and groom, our band was an extremely important decision, and we couldn't have been more fortunate to have found the Barnstorm. I am certain they will exceed your expectations. Our guests were a combination of friends and family from NYC and Boston mostly mid 20's to early 40's - everyone raved about these guys for weeks after our wedding and the dance floor was packed the entire night. I only wish we had the venue for a few more hours. It's also worth mentioning that the Barnstorm is extremely responsive and professional, with everything from timely emails to handling all the elements of the contract and equipment hookups. We had a lot of confidence in Brooks and the rest of the Barnstorm from the very beginning. I'll finish with this - I've probably been to 50+ weddings over the years, and the Barnstorm is by far the best band I've seen - we feel really lucky that we found them for our wedding!

The Barnstorm in person are even better than their videos. Yes, really. From the first email, to the final song, they weren't just professional they were enthusiastic about our wedding. They have a genuine presence and personality that shines through in every song and genre that they seamlessly transition between. Brooks was an absolute pleasure to work with in ironing out all details of our booking. We were only able to pair down their robust song list in about half but they were able to capture the mood we were going for and kept our friends on the dance floor ALL night long. We're still getting compliments about the band now, two weeks after our wedding. Any request or question we had - they were accommodating and thoughtful in how to solve it. I was impressed that before announcing the wedding party for dinner JR double checked pronunciation with every person before we began. Our first dance was an unknown song, and they learned it for us and Brooks recommended a great cut that made it the right length. They also know how to incorporate the perfect mixture of crowd participation without being corny.. I've already promised my friends we'd go to one of their regular gigs so we can dance the night away again.

We hired The Barnstorm to play at our wedding, and other than marrying my husband, they were the best thing that happened to me that day. They can read a crowd and tailor the music to the environment so well, I don’t think there was one song people weren’t dancing too. Now, The Barnstorm is not like every other run-of-the-mill event band that plays classic wedding favorites. I’m sure they can if that’s your thing, but personally, I did not want that. Like true professionals, they worked with my husband and I on songs we wanted to hear, and songs we wanted to dance too. They even learned a song or two for us. Their versatility is off the charts—their set for my wedding included songs from the 90’s, rock songs, country songs, current songs on the radio, and oh yes, one of them even raps. We had numerous people compliment us on how amazing they were. I have been to many weddings and events with bands, and I don’t think I’m being biased at all when I say I think they are the best event band I have ever seen play.

The Barnstorm played at our wedding this past August '17 - they did our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. It was one of THE BEST decisions we made for our wedding. We were able to see them play at a venue in the city so we got a feel beforehand for their sound and how they performed. Brooks was super responsive and easy to work with - he even pushed me to be a bit more decisive so they could do their best to give us exactly what we wanted day of.
When it came down to it, the ceremony was beautiful and the music for the reception was SO GOOD. These guys TURNED UP - everyone was on the dance floor, from our college friends to my husband's grandparents. The Barnstorm covers a huge range of songs, and look like they're having the best time while they're doing it.
Also want to mention that the guys did such a great job with our "special songs" too. My dad was really indecisive, and they ended up learning another new song for us (on top of our first dance) probably 3 weeks out.
Overall, we got so many compliments saying that these guys were professional, engaging, sounded great, and looked sharp. By the end of the night, everyone (including me and my husband) just wanted the music to keep going, and to be friends with these guys afterwards because they're so fun! Book these guys NOW, you will not be disappointed!!!

Oh the Barnstorm. These guys know how to put on a show! From the time they took the stage and kicked off the reception with "Proud Mary" to the very end of the night, they were on stage doing song after song after song. I'm not entirely sure how they managed to play so long without a break, but the Barnstorm's energy and excitement on stage made for an incredible atmosphere at our reception. Everyone - young and old - was dancing, and they read the crowd's energy really well. We've had multiple guests ask us for references in the weeks since our wedding. Their team was easy to work with and even helped set up the speaker system for our ceremony. These guys are amazing. Do yourself a favor and book them.

Brooks, Cam and the guys were a HUGE hit at our wedding. We got married in Tuscany in September 2017, and right from when I contacted them they were friendly, professional and overall enthusiastic about performing at our wedding. My wife and I always knew that good food, plenty of alcohol and music are the three key ingredients to putting on a great party for family and friends. There is no question that The Barnstorm were instrumental (excuse the pun!) in everyone having an amazing, fun and memorable time. You will not regret having them at your wedding!!!
Thanks so much guys and look forward to seeing you in NYC soon!

Having The Barnstorm as our wedding band was one of the best (and easiest) decisions we made in planning our wedding. They were absolutely fantastic and our guests are still, months later, talking about the band. We looked at a number of bands when planning our wedding but none of them came close to The Barnstorm. Go check them out live and your decision will be easy. And if you look at other bands, make sure not to rely on promo videos because most are often heavily produced and don't sound anything like the band playing live. The Barnstorm, on the other hand, were even better live than their video. The main thing that makes them stand out is that they have great chemistry and you can tell they love what they do and aren't just there to play music--they are there to entertain and put on a show. We felt like we not only had a great band that was able to get people up on the dance floor, but we also got had own private concert with amazing musicians. They also played the music for our ceremony and first dance, which we had not really focused on when planning the wedding, but it ended up being one of the highlights of the day. If you are even remotely considering having a band at your wedding, do yourself a favor and just book The Barnstorm immediately. Your wedding reception will be incredible.

The guys from The Barnstorm are great and we can't given them a strong enough endorsement. We had seen them perform at a corporate event before engaging them about our wedding, so we felt that we were in good hands. But our expectations were beyond exceeded. On top of putting on a great performance, reading the audience and making sure everyone had a great time on our wedding night, they were very responsive and extremely helpful throughout the planning process. Although that may be considered "an expectation," we had a lot of moving parts- including international travel and non-English speaking vendors. From end-to-end they were amazing to deal with. We've even had friends at our wedding inquire about using The Barnstorm for their upcoming receptions!

My wife loves to dance. I have an eclectic taste in music and not too many tunes get me out of my seat. One evening, many moons ago, Jessica took me to hear the Barnstorm play in Brother Jimmy's. We couldn't stop dancing. The band has such incredible range, blending so many musical genres and making any party the most danceably delicious event around. Our wedding was incredible, and guests from teenager to septuagenarian, were grooving all night long. Brooks and the rest of the band are nice, reliable, reasonable and communicative every step of the way leading up to (and through) the big day (or night) of your event. Do yourself a favor and BOOK THE BARNSTORM.

The Barnstorm played our July 2017 wedding and exceeded every expectation. My husband and I are really into live music, but every typical wedding band we looked into sounded the same (and seemed like they only knew “uptown funk”). We were almost ready to give up and hire a DJ until we found the Barnstorm. They are really the whole package: talented musicians with a wide repertoire spanning genres and decades, they interacted with the whole crowd, kids and adults alike, and are true professionals who really know how to read a crowd. I saw some relatives dance for the first time ever - our priest even got out there. Our family and friends are still talking about the music, and all agreed they were the best band they've ever heard at a wedding. They even worked behind the scenes with my husband to learn a special song for us, and that surprise wound up being one of my favorite moments of our reception. We highly, highly recommend them!

Choosing the Barnstorm to play at our wedding was the BEST decision we made! They were absolutely AMAZING! Everyone is still raving about how good the band was! We were told the entertainment makes the wedding and that was very true advice! We were not able to see them play prior to the event due to our work schedules, but all the good reviews and their video helped us choose them for our big day. They did not disappoint! Everyone was dancing the entire night! They were great at getting the guests involved and making sure everyone had a fun time. They are very talented musicians and did a great job at choosing a wide variety of songs that everyone loved. They were so easy to work with beforehand and were willing to play any special song that was requested. They also were more than willing to emcee the event. We cannot thank and recommend the Barnstorm enough and look forward to hearing them play again in NYC!

We hired The Barnstorm to play our wedding in June 2017 and we couldn't have made a better decision! To give you context, I wanted a band to play our wedding, but not a cheesy, rotating 12-15 piece traditional wedding band with no personality, never plays together outside of weddings or wedding showcases and would kick off the evening with “Celebration”.
The Barnstorm was exactly what I was looking for. They’re great musicians, with a wide-ranging and extremely fun set list, and they know how to entertain the room (like when they ventured into the crowd to hand the mic to my wife, who then promptly forgot all of the words to the Nelly song they were playing – and that was only one of a few guest verses throughout the evening). Not only are they amazing musicians who will have all of your wedding guests dancing and singing the entire night (our guests can't stop raving about them), but they are a great group of guys as well. For example, we didn't decide on a first song dance until a few days before our wedding so we had no expectations of them playing it live (which we told them), but they actually managed to surprise the day of as they had learned at the last minute for us. Brooks was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the planning process (probably our most responsive vendor), and on the day of the band was very easy going and relaxed, and made sure to let us know their priority was for us to have a great time - which is exactly what you want when you have 1000 things going on during your wedding.
They're truly amazing at what they do – you will absolutely have no regrets booking them. If you are having second thoughts, just go see them play - you will quickly understand why they are so great. We are so happy that we chose them!

By far the best wedding band ever! We knew we wanted to hire the Barnstorm Band for our wedding after seeing them put on an awesome show for New Years in NY last year. They really set the tone for our wedding and seriously made the night so much fun! Everyone from our friends to our grandparents were on the dance floor enjoying the wide range of music the Barnstorm Band had to offer. We are still continuing to get rave reviews from friends and family. Overall the band is so talented and fun, they had the entire crowd involved. Do yourself a favor and book these guys asap! They aren't bad to look at either ;)

The Barnstorm played at our beach ceremony and reception this weekend and did such an amazing job. Music plays a big role in our relationship, so my husband and I knew we couldn't have a DJ do our reception. A cheesy wedding band wasn't an option either. Luckily, we found the Barnstorm and never looked back. Definitely one of the best decisions we made. Not only did they do an incredible job performing, but they captured one of my favorite pictures from the night, and are just a really great group of guys. If you have a chance to book them do it now. You will not regret it.
