Reviews of Top 40 Bands available in Essen, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany

John Paul Band
"We booked John Paul Band for a corporate gala in the Frankfurt area and the performance was outstanding from start to finish. The band created an elegant atmosphere during dinner and later turned the evening into a high-energy party with a full dance floor. Very professional communication, punctual setup, great sound, and a fantastic repertoire. Our guests were impressed and we would book them again anytime."

Black Tie Optional Band
"I'm so glad I found Black Tie Optional Band in Portugal! We are big country music fans and had our wedding in Braga this past fall. Black Tie Optional Band rocked the house! Our guests were absolutely thrilled to have pop/country music to dance to. Nicole is so easy to work with and worked with us over several months to make sure our song list was perfect. If you're looking for a band to keep your friends on the dance floor, don't hesitate to book these guys!"

MG Entertainment, Inc.
"We booked WOW- We're One World for our fundraising gala event and they put on an amazing show. The mix of music was great, the band was professional and sounded so solid. They showed up in full glam attire to our elevated event. Communication was easy and we really enjoyed hosting them. Our crowd was enjoying dancing and singing along to all the songs through the night and gave great reviews. We are booking them again for our event this year!"

Shaal Sax
"Alex of Shaal Sax was an absolute delight to work with and have play at our wedding. We’d highly recommend! My husband and I booked Alex for our wedding just about 10 days before the big day and Alex was great at communicating, offering creative ideas, and adapting without much notice. He was quick to respond, and extremely kind both via the internet and in-person. He showed up hours in advance to make sure technology worked smoothly alongside our DJ, and he bravely played in front of our crowd of ~165 French and American guests moving between dinner tables during dessert and then around the dance floor alongside our DJ for several songs. Having him in the center of the dancing was a huge crowd pleaser. He brought the energy up from about 7/10 to 11/10! ;) everyone loved it so much and he will truly remain such a highlight of our wedding day! Awesome experience hiring Shaal Sax!"
