    Best NYE Wedding Band

    The Brooklyn Beats & working with Jon was the best decision we made as an add-on to our wedding on New Year's Eve 2025. We had a trio (singer, keyboardist, saxophonist) perform at our Cocktail Hour and they played throwback hits that performed so well and set the tone for our event. Sean crushed every song from Billy Joel to Jay-Z to Michael Jackson to Bruce Springsteen. The music was such a fun component to our beginning of the night. Then we had Matt on the saxophone come up to the reception and perform during the entire reception during select songs which he absolutely blew everyone away with - it was the talk of the night and one of the most talked about moments of the event, it was the perfect add-on with our DJ who played mostly hip-hop and EDM hits. The team was so willing to work with our DJ to integrate the saxophone and worked perfectly in the venue setting up the most amazing position next to the bar during Cocktail Hour. I could not recommend The Brooklyn Beats more for dynamic, fun, energizing and soulful performances for your NYC wedding!

    Best wedding band!!

    The Brooklyn Beats is THE BEST wedding band you will ever work with. Seemless planning, thorough communications and the absolute best time on the dance floor. They navigated the venue and last minute setup issues with ease and brought the house down with their performance - not a lull in the dance floor for one moment, everyone was truly dancing the night away! Would hire them a thousand times over!

    Fantastic!

    The Brooklyn Beats absolutely crushed it at our wedding last month. Jon worked with us to make sure the band played a bunch of our favorite songs and learned a few special requests for our formal dances, while also hitting a bunch of other classics that kept the whole family on the dance floor THE WHOLE NIGHT. I can’t even count the amount of compliments we received about them from guests.

    The kitchen was a bit delayed for dinner, which ended up being a GOOD thing because we just got to keep dancing more before dinner!

    Would hire them again and again to rock any party. Huge thanks to Jon and the rest of The Brooklyn Beats team!

    Best Out There!

    The Brooklyn Beats were hands down the best party band I’ve ever hired. I produce a lot of weddings and events and this band stands out amongst the very crowded scene. The musicians are just amazing. Some of the most talented I’ve come across. Many of them have credits on major artists tours and albums. Some have performed on Broadway. Just an awesome group. They sounded great and play all the hits across every era of great music. They also have excellent medleys and set compositions, which creates a seamless flow and nonstop feeling to their performance.

    They are not only incredibly talented performers, but true professionals. Communicative, flexible, and prompt. Jon was a pleasure to work with and made my life easy. I felt like they had everything fully under control which allowed me to focus on the other elements of the event.

    All in all, I would highly recommend The Brooklyn Beats to anyone looking for a high energy, joyful, world-class music experience at their event or wedding.

    Best band ever!

    The Brooklyn Beats were amazing. Jon was great to work with. Everyone was singing and dancing all night! Honestly they MADE the party! Run don’t walk to Brooklyn Beats! I would 1000 hire them again (and many guests asked for their information afterwards!)

    Jazz trio for cocktail party at home

    Amazing job. used the Brooklyn Beats for cocktail hour and nice sit down dinner party at my house. We had a Jazz trio first played outdoors and then moved indoors and played on our piano. really made the entire event so special. perfect vibe setting by the band, great jazz and piano based classic rock which we requested. Would use them again and again. very reasonably priced as well. Highly recommended!

    Great Experience

    Jon and the team were really great communicators. They helped us plan our wedding in May and made the process really easy, even traveling for the wedding and helping us get the timing right.

    Amazing! What fun

    The Brooklyn Beats were amazing at our upstate wedding in April! A family member connected us to Jon and he could not have been friendlier and more professional. We were blown away by their Demo video and instantly knew they had to be our band for our wedding.

    To say that this was the best wedding band we’ve ever seen is an understatement!! The dance floor was completely packed all night and we just couldn’t believe the musical talent that was coming off that stage. Our guests couldn’t stop talking about them all night and still ask us about them to this day. Can’t recommend booking them enough!

    The Brooklyn Beats's reply:

    Thank you Erin! It was an honor to perform at your wedding. We had an amazing time! Congratulations!

    Best decision ever!

    Do not sleep on booking The Brooklyn Beats! I’m positive this will be the most popular wedding band in NYC very soon! I was a big fan of Jon’s old band, Steel Train, and also saw him play drums when he was with Bleachers in 2015. Since then I’ve followed him on social media and when I heard he started his own wedding/event band, I couldn’t believe it lined up with me looking for a band for our big day! We debated a DJ versus a live band—but wow a live band is the way to go. They play every style of music which has everyone from your older relatives to your youngest friends singing and dancing for the ENTIRE night. The talent is unreal and the energy of a live band brings a night to a new level. Wish I could give more than 5 stars.

    Epic Band with Tremendous Leader!

    Full disclosure, my wife and I have known Jon for a long time. He is one of the most honest, transparent, trustworthy and hard-working, and talented people I’ve ever met.

    Separate of that, I just simply wouldn’t trust anyone else when it comes to music for events and weddings. When Dara and I got married, Jon was producing weddings and bandleading for one of the bigger wedding band agencies in New York. Because of our trust in him and because we wanted him to be the bandleader, we hired that company for our wedding and it was the best decision we could’ve made. The party was absolutely epic!!! Our guests kept coming up to us and commenting on how the band was incredible. It was obvious that Jon was one of the main reasons why - having been a major part of their operations for several years at that point.

    We are absolutely ecstatic that he started The Brooklyn Beats! We know that countless parties and weddings will also agree that it was the best choice to have his team of talented and professional artists rock the house! We can’t wait to renew our vows and work with Jon again!
