Review Centre: Top 40 Bands

"We couldn’t thank metropolis live music enough! As many know wedding planning is quite stressful but Mingo Tull (band leader) made it seamless and worry free. We chose them after a friend recommended them and made our wedding a total success! Almost 2 months later and people are still saying “that band was unreal”, “that band was electric”, “my legs were so sore from dancing because of the band”. If you are worried about people dancing at your wedding, then this is the band for you! Metropolis will forever be special to us because they made our dream wedding come true! Also every single band member and sound crew was amazing as well. The talent was unmatched. I will recommend and hope to go to a wedding with metropolis live band where we can reconnect <3 A very happy bride and groom! Lisa and Joey Bednarski 10/13/24 Newburgh Brewing Company "

"I wanted a swing/jazz band for my wedding, and oh boy, did they deliver! They were swinging, and lively; their repertoire was quite expansive. They reached out to ask if I had any specific songs and then added additional pieces that suited the style I wanted. We contracted them for both the ceremony and the reception, we had a 3 piece band for the ceremony (piano, bass, and sax) They showed up early and set up with no extra help needed, played some gentle jazz music until the ceremony began, and even added in a drummer for no extra charge. I flip-flopped on the song I wanted to walk down the aisle to until almost the very last moment, and they were incredibly understanding and flexible. For the ceremony, we requested a 7 piece band so it could be boisterous and fun. There was almost no time that the dance floor was empty from the moment they began playing, even though the music they played was a sort of old-school jazz that few people know how to properly dance to. They played so well and brought such an element of joy and fun, that all our guests felt comfortable enough to dance all night. We learned how to swing dance for our first dance (Louis Armstrong, 'Bout Time), and the band played it to perfection (even if we didn't dance it perfectly LOL). This moment is one I will treasure forever, it was exactly as I had wanted it to be. For the rest of the night, they played off a setlist of a few songs I gave them and filled in the rest with their own recommendations. The singer has the most beautiful voice, all the band members play perfectly, I felt like I was in a 1920s jazz bar which was exactly what I had wanted. We had guests approach us all throughout the night, and even now to ask who the band was and to congratulate us on such a fun event. If you want a band that can swing, rock, and any other musical verb you like, this is the band you want. They were so communicative, helpful, and perfectly able to understand my vision. To the Orignal Moonlighters: thank you for making my wedding as special as it was."

"Lisa and the E-Lusion were phenomenal... they were very easy to communicate with throughout the planning process, and she accommodated our special requests without complaint. Lisa and her entire band are all very talented and entertaining, and they made our wedding reception a blast from start to finish. I would highly recommend this band to anyone looking for high-quality, fun entertainment. Review by Tanner P. FROM OXFORD, MS ON 7/7/2018"

"Most amazing band EVER! Doc and Groove Ride performed for my wedding reception and they were tremendous to work with from start to finish! They kindly learned three brand new songs just for us and they were the highlight of the evening! Every guest was asking their name as soon as they started to play and our only regret was not hiring them to play longer! Doc was our MC and he was perfect at keeping things on time, while also remembering all the little details, even the ones we added 48 hours before. They did our cocktail hour as well. We will use them for every party we ever do! They do all fun hits From 80s, 90s and today and will give you a wide ranging song list to choose from."
