Reviews of Motown Bands available in Jacksonville

5/5 from 295 reviews
Photo of Swiftkick Band Swiftkick Band "After seeing Swiftkick play at a friend's wedding, we knew we had to book them for our wedding. They were fun, energetic, and sounded great. They were easy to work with when planning song selections and the timeline as well as being flexible when we wanted to add in the keyboard just a few weeks before the wedding. On our wedding day we could not have been any more impressed with their performance, professionalism, and easy going nature. They kept the party going as more and more people joined the dance floor. Swiftkick gave an awesome performance!!!" Based in Daytona Beach, Florida (86 miles from Jacksonville) Alison U. - Wedding Photo of David G. Maki II David G. Maki II "Our company had a professional networking event and David was absolutely amazing. Sounds were so classy! We are booking him again for our upcoming event!" Based in Lady Lake, Florida (99 miles from Jacksonville) Dimitri S. - Private Event Photo of Andrew Thielen Big Band Andrew Thielen Big Band "WE were so glad we found Andrew Thielen Big Band. They are a real band that has been together for over twenty years perfecting their music, showmanship and dazzling variety of music that kept our dance floor jammed. WE almost got swayed into one of these chain bands called Empire something where they throw together bands for one night until we figured out you cannot be a 3 piece band one week and a 12 piece band the next. WE wanted a real band where the band leader has had repeat performances for the most discriminating buyers for years. Every age, everyones taste in music and our twenty something wedding party had the time of our life. Call them now for sensational singers, instrumentalists and organization." Based in Charleston, South Carolina (197 miles from Jacksonville) Aaron Hines - wedding reception Photo of Collaboration Band Collaboration Band "What can I say? Every time we book the Collaboration Band it is a hit from start to finish. The band knows how to read the room, and their repertoire guarantees audiences of all ages will pack the dancefloor. Time and time again clients call to rebook the band, and we are only too happy to oblige. Having worked with quality musical acts for over four decades, The Collaboration Band is one of the most popular bands we have had the privilege to represent.

They kept my guest entertained and on the dance floor. Their renditions of the songs were dead on. I would highly recommend them for your events."
