Review Centre: Reggae / Ska Bands

"We've booked Chronicles of Zee several times for our annual ball, and they never let us down, applying a funk, soul and ska twist to a range of classics to get the dancefloor rocking with something for everyone. Des and the band are great guys and we'd happily recommend them. "

" Unique, talented, mellow DJ! Brian was approachable to talk to, esp. with it being my first time working with a DJ. He was willing to take the time to listen to songs that were important to me and other things about the wedding (actually we had a renewal of vows celebration that was like a wedding). Brian gave great suggestions based on lots of experience. His skills exceed that of others DJ's I've seen -- he's a musician himself too...a really good one! He has a ton of songs to pick from, too; he even pulled out what I'd call dinner versions of a lot of the songs on my playlist for when we were eating (our plan was to have more mellow music during that time). He was friendly and flexible, joining in with 2 other musicians I hired for square/folk dance music. If you're looking for someone who will bring a calm presence, look no further. I've been recommending Brian to several friends. Bonus: he played the music the perfect loudness (as in loud for a party) but comfortable for the ears (you could hold a conversation). I think this contributed to our guests feeling comfortable and smiling the whole time and getting to know each other. I loved that Brian brought equipment for the music to be outdoors at the end when my husband and I danced our special Last Dance on the grass surrounded by family and friends; it was so joyful and fun.

"Hired for our wedding reception. My favorite thing about Brian is that he is an actual musician on top of just DJ. Played the piano live for our cocktail hour then switched to regular music for dinner and dancing. Brian did a great job mixing in the important moments/songs we had requested, while also taking requests from guests on the fly to keep the evening going. Very laid back but also professional, timely etc. Sound and light equipment was professional quality as well. Would certainly recommend. Thank you Brian!"

"My Seniors Came Alive! Oh man! Where to start! I had seniors with Parkinson’s up and dancing! The upbeat, energetic music mixed with Caribbean-esc vocals had my seniors (ranging from 80 to 95 years old) up and moving like they were 20 again! I can’t say enough good things! Thank you so much for bringing so much life to our senior community! "

"We hired Brian Bender of Face the Music DJ and honestly, it could not have been more perfect. He was super attentive to our needs, super laid back, super understanding and extremely amazing in every aspect of the night. Brian met with us immediately and put together an epic song list in not much time. He played piano expertly early on, and even broke out a Trombone later in the evening. He has a great feel for the crowd and djs accordingly to their wants and needs. He was a great announcer and drifted around the room, patiently, as speeches got carried away. So beyond grateful we chose him for our wedding day, it was super special!!!"

"Last Train to Skaville blew us away with their electrifying performance! From the moment they hit the stage, they had the entire crowd on their feet, dancing and skanking to the infectious rhythms of ska. Their seamless blend of classic hits and original tunes kept the energy levels sky-high all night long."

"A huge thank you Paul, for keeping us entertained all evening with your brilliant varied repertoire and friendly banter. Also, thanks very much for the songs you improvised for us towards the end of a great evening. Paul is a very talented singer/guitarist, and able to adapt his great voice to so many different styles of song, giving some great entertainment. I would highly recommend Paul for all types of event and would happily have Paul play again for us some time in the future. Thanks Paul."
