    Bluegrass -- Highlight of our Wedding

    Dave and Monocle played our outdoor barn wedding. We had Monocle (the world's best bluegrass band, seriously look them up on Spotify) play the ceremony and cocktails, and then Dave (manager and bass player) stayed to DJ the rest of the night. We asked Monocle to accompany some of our friends singing the ceremony, which they did flawlessly. The band is professional and incredibly talented, it was definitely a highlight for our guests. Dave's DJ portion of the night was amazing -- the dance floor wasn't empty for a second and he played music that appealed to all of our guests. He helped keep us on schedule throughout the night as well -- a true jack of all trades. Dave met with us not once but twice prior to the wedding to talk through the ceremony and reception and was available for my phone calls and text message questions as well. If you are looking for a bluegrass band, talented musicians, and great humans to work with on your special day, I would highly recommend this incredible team.

    Best wedding band ever!

    We cannot rave about our wedding band, The Fever, enough! Michele and Dave were informative and helpful from the very beginning, and helped with initial planning quite a bit before we hired a planner due to our crazy work schedules. Their helpful google forms allow you to rate their song selection by what you like and don't like, and they even allowed us to share a "must play" list on Spotify with them to ensure the motown hits we really were dying for all made the wedding night set list! They surprised us by playing more than one amazing Grateful Dead song (my husband is a huge deadhead), and the dance floor was rocking ALL night. So much so, that our guests didn't want to leave at closing time so we extended the wedding an hour longer and the Fever played a full half hour beyond their plans. They were happy and excited to do this and kept the energy really high! They also allowed my dad to jump on stage to sing "play that funky music" with them, one of the funnier videos that has come out of our wedding :). Being huge music fans, my husband and I thought that the band was just about the most important vendor selection we had to make, and we are glad we made it early and booked the Fever when we did! They also provided beautiful ceremony music with a violin and guitar, and provided a bluegrass trio for the cocktail hour portion of the night. We would use them again for a private party in a heartbeat. Thanks Michele, Dave, and the Fever!

    The Fever killed it at our wedding! I danced my buns off the whole night because each song they played I loved. Dave and Michelle are amazing to work with and they are so responsive to emails and requests. They get to know your style of music and roll with it, tailoring a killer set list for your event. They also learned two new songs per request and played a special song for my nephew at set break (total props and kudos for that). Everyone raved about the music and danced until the last song. Go for The Fever and splurge for a trumpet or saxophone -- best wedding decision we made! Thanks guys!

    I booked this band after they rocked my sister-in-law's wedding and somehow they still exceeded my expectations on my wedding day! Ceremony music, cocktail hour music, and reception music was all on point! They truly understood the type of music we wanted and they were amazing and professional. Highly recommend this band for music lovers!

    We had a small wedding in Punta de Mita, Mexico the weekend of 12/9/17. We did not care for the band options available in Mexico, so we decided to look at bands in the US. A good friend of mine recommended a band “The Fever” he had seen at a large wedding in Santa Fe. He said all the guests went on and on about how great the band was. I reached out via their website and got a response the same day. Michele Jennings was absolutely amazing to work with! I don’t know if I have ever experienced someone in the business world that knew their business better, or was more prepared and organized. Not to mentions so personable. I feel like a made a new friend during the process. Since we planned such a small wedding and the resort was handling most of the details, I did not have a wedding planner. I had no idea the questions to ask or what would be involved in setting up the band and sound equipment. Michele took care of everything coordinating with the resort and local sound companies in Mexico. She had detailed planning sheets for the wedding and an extensive list of music to choose from. The fact the band was in CO and we were in TX was not a problem at all. We skyped, talked on the phone, emailed and texted and were able plan everything without meeting in person. They did such an amazing job at our ceremony and the reception. We had to practically drag our guests off the dance floor at the end of the night. They were begging for the band to keep playing! One of our guests already plans to hire The Fever for his daughter’s wedding. Many thanks to The Fever for making our wedding weekend the most memorable time of our lives.

    We can't say enough great things about The Fever. Working with Michele and team was an incredible experience. They made planning a breeze, rocked it on stage during our wedding and had our friends talking about the night for a long time after. They kept everyone dancing all night to great tunes that perfectly matched our music tastes. Michele also worked closely with our other vendors to be sure that everything ran smoothly throughout the day and night. Thanks to Michele and The Fever for making our wedding day so amazing!!

    Total Professionals on a FREEZING Day

    The Fever played a wonderful acoustic version of Elvis' "Can't Help Falling In Love" for our ceremony - it was so romantic! They have been more than amazing to work with and are flexible, attentive, and knowledgable about playing at weddings. Our wedding was held at River Bend in Lyons, CO in SURPRISE 20 degree weather - they were on time in spite of terrible roads, and played outdoors for the ceremony in spite of freezing fingers! Michelle is wonderful, and is quick to respond to inquiries as well. We very much appreciate everything that she and the band did for our wedding!

    The Fever put together such an amazing show for our wedding day! I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band for any event for two main reasons: 1) the great show they put on and 2) their communication and organization. First I'll touch on the music, as most people are looking for a band that puts on a great show. They handled all of the music details for the day, and we had a combination of live and recorded music for our event. The jazz ensemble that played during cocktail hour was the perfect way to start the party after the pre-recorded ceremony. For the reception, we had the 6 piece band, and I would highly recommend adding a horn if possible - it was totally worth it! Our guests (and us) were up dancing all night long, and many guests came up to us to say how great the band was and how much fun they were having. The Fever put together an incredible set list based on our song choices, and we loved every minute of it! Also, Michele is a FANTASTIC singer - get it girl!!! ;)
    The next reason we loved working with The Fever was the ease of communication and organization Michele and Dave have put together. It was so easy to work with them from the moment we first reached out. Their attention to detail and organization made it so easy for us to coordinate with our other wedding vendors to plan out the day, which was something that was very important to us, as we did not hire a wedding planner. They had great advice on when to do certain dances, speeches, etc to help make the day flow effortlessly. My biggest piece of advice would be to hire great vendors so the planning process is easy, and you can just relax the day of and know you don't have to worry about a thing! That is exactly how we felt the day of, we knew we were in excellent hands and didn't have to worry about a thing. :) If you are considering hiring a band for your wedding then I highly encourage you to reach out to them!

    The Fever played at our small wedding in Colorado in October this year, and from start to finish -- booking, song selection, and of course, the performance itself -- they were incredible! We didn't realize going into the process just how complicated it could be, but Dave made everything easy and fun as we figured out the details, from the first dance to the final songs. When dealing with what was occasionally chaotic wedding planning, it was really nice to feel confident in such a big piece from the get-go. Dave was also really accommodative in working directly with our venue to ensure everything was good to go when they arrived, and in being flexible as we navigated cold weather and a shifting schedule.

    The music was great. They hit both our first dance song and our parent dance song perfectly, and the music the rest of the way was upbeat, well-played, and exactly what we were hoping for. I can't recommend them highly enough!

    The highlight!

    Planning a wedding is a lot! I only gave myself 3 things I was really allowed to care about and one of them was the band. We chose The Fever because of their reviews and they did NOT disappoint. We met with Michelle a few times to go over schedule of the day and ideal playlist and our guests raved about them. We've been married for over a year now and people tell us how much they loved our band, they were the perfect mix of all age crowd pleasers and modern songs. We absolutely loved our experience with them.

    I have nothing but good things to say about the Fever. Dave was so easy to get in-touch with. Google docs made our interactions very easy. He had each item that I had questions about ready to go. I was able to choose my favorite to "hate" on the checklist. Make out first dance lists! They were able to play all of my favorites. The selection of songs was great for the variety of ages we had attend. They met my unusual need to have a cello played during out first dance! They learned three songs to add to our night. Dave emailed me back the same day when I had questions. We meet 2 times to go over event details. Everyone at our reception had a great time!

    This is the band you want for your wedding.

    Their performance was powerful, their musicianship was obvious, and their production was immaculate. Beyond that though, was their dedication to making our wedding smooth and flawless. Dave and Michelle acted as our true logistical wedding planners - they provided the timeline, recommended songs, and rented the proper equipment we needed. They even collaborated with family musicians on special ceremony performances.

    The Fever made our wedding spectacular and were a pleasure to work with.

    10/10 would hire again!

    Really worked well with us to play music for the service, cocktails, and dancing that the Bride and Groom wanted. Organized, responded quickly to questions, and took very quick break so that we didn't lose the momentum of the evening.
    Highly recommend!!!

    Having The Fever play at our wedding last summer was the best decision we ever made. They are so talented, and so fun! We saw them play at a local 4th of July event and were immediately impressed by their talent/skills, but especially with their energy on stage. Our guests were dancing ALL night long and continued to rave about our band for weeks after.

    I have worked with Michelle and The Fever Band a few times over the last year and THEY NEVER DISAPPOINT! As an event planner, it is critical for me to hire event professionals for my clients that provide an outstanding product, are wonderful and easy to work with and people who go above and beyond to make the clients happy. The Fever Band delivers on ALL aspects. Their sound is entertaining and first rate. The quality and professionalism of the musicians and equipment as well as the range of genre's they are able to deliver truly set the bar for live musicians for any event. Hire the Fever Band - you won't regret it!

    We video recorded much of it, and can see how much fun everyone was having… Including ourselves!

    The Fever was AWESOME! From the start, they were very easy to communicate with. Before we hired them, we met with Michele to chat - this meeting was a HUGE help to us in so many ways - she got us thinking about many pieces of the wedding puzzle, and had great advice for us.
    Once we hired them, Dave wound up being our point man and band leader for our event- The guy couldn't be nicer, and an amazing musician. Like our first meeting with Michele, Dave really listened to us, knew all the right questions to ask to get everything how we wanted it (which we didn't even know how exactly we wanted it! He helped us get there).
    We did not want one of those wedding bands that does spot on covers of modern and classic hits - we wanted a band with personality, that could also do the kind of covers that fill the floor, but not stick to these 100% - We're also jam-band fans, so we were really happy to see that The Fever has some Grateful Dead and Phish in their repertoire. But really, no matter what music you’re a fan of I get the feeling they’re going to listen to you and get it how you want it.
    I also really appreciated working with a band that was able to bring their own sound, lights, and help w playlists for the times when the band was not playing.
    The actual music of the night was incredible – the band played a light set during dinner – nice jazz music but not too stuffy – some recognizable covers in there- it was perfect.
    The dance party was awesome. They were able to perfectly read the crowd, bringing the energy up to… well, a fever, by the end of the night. The musicians were all very talented, and they were able to really jam a few of the songs we requested – I would totally go see them play on a Friday night!
    We are so glad we chose The Fever, they were the perfect band for us!

    The Fever always brings the heat! We have them every year for our big Alumni Reunion Weekend and they are always a hit on Saturday night. Amazing vocals, instrumentals, and an awesome stage presence. We will continue to use them as long as they are still playing!

    The Fever provided ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing music for our big day and WOW, we were beyond pleased with how each ensemble of musicians performed. The quality of the music was outstanding, and we received tons of compliments from our guests on the groovy tunes. I could not have been more grateful to Michele, who helped plan the timeline for the evening and acted as MC. From the moment we booked the band, she was on top of every last detail, with tons of great suggestions and guidance on how the timeline of events should flow. Michele then puts together a timeline document (amazing!) that I shared with the day-of coordinators at my venue. And on the big day, she worked with my venue to ensure everything went super smoothly. HIGHLY recommended!

    Outstanding Wedding Band!

    The Fever totally rocked it at our wedding. We prioritized the band in our wedding planning, and wanted our reception to be a fun party with lots of energy. Queue The Fever! Everyone in the band is an extremely talented musician, and they make every song their own in some way. They were even able to learn a fairly esoteric song for our first dance and add a funky beat to it, all of which made our first dance very special and one of the highlights of the reception. And, most importantly, they have a broad repertoire of songs, which allowed them to read the mood of the crowd and adjust accordingly to play songs that kept the energy high and people on the dance floor. All of our guests the next day commented on how great the band was, and we couldn’t agree more. They made our reception a really fun party, which is exactly what we wanted. Lastly, the planning process leading up to the wedding was impeccable – the band leaders are all very organized, they know how to help plan every last detail of the wedding, and are always available for questions or ideas. We can’t thank them enough, and highly recommend them for anyone planning a wedding in the future.

    The Fever was a pleasure to work with. From day one, Michele was incredibly professional, organized, and direct in her communication. She left nothing to chance and was super responsive to the many questions we had for her throughout the process.

    All of the band members were talented and respectful. We had a member of the band play and acoustic guitar at the ceremony which was just perfect - the sound quality, timing, etc. was spot on.

    A few members of the band played during cocktail hour and the full 7 piece band played at our reception and they KILLED it! The band did an excellent job reading the crowd and playing appropriate songs for the mood throughout the night. The first set was a nice introduction, slowly building up to the absolutely amazing second set. The night culminated with everyone on the dance floor chanting for an encore. It was amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better wedding band experience.

    The Fever was unbelievable once again! They preformed at my sister's wedding years and years ago and I when I got engaged my first thought about the wedding was that The Fever had to be the band. Michelle Jennings walked us through every step and was constantly in touch with every detail. They have an enormous song list and their talent is beyond belief! They tailor everything to your needs and wants, they did our ceremony, helped set up our speeches in a pinch when we realized our other speakers weren't there, and then did the most fun dance music you can imagine. They absolutely made our wedding, and everyone at the our venue said it was the most fun wedding they've seen and it was due to The Fever. We can't thank them enough for making our day the most perfect wedding it could be, they are absolutely one of a kind, and I cannot recommend them enough to everyone! They did perfect renditions of our slow songs for our first dance, the bride and father dance and the groom and mother dances and then broke out into perfect dance songs! It was honestly such a fun wedding because of them!! Six stars out of 5 all the way!!! Thanks so much you guys!!!!

    We could not be happier with our selection of this amazing group of musicians and people! Before our event they were friendly, responsive and flexible. At the event they were knowledgeable, helpful, and so experienced and professional. Their music was beyond anything we had imagined. Pretty much everyone was on the dance floor for pretty much the entire time. Every song they played was perfect! They went out of their way to learn a special song for the bride and groom and then learned another song requested by all four parents for a secret surprise dance. We found out about them from someone who attended an event where they played and said we absolutely had to get them for the wedding. I am sure that any of our guests would make the same recommendation. Thanks to all!
