Photo of Generation 2 Generation 2 "One of the best Bands this side of the East Coast. I will definitely hire them again." Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania O. P Patterson - Private event Photo of Seven Seven "Choosing the Se7en Band to perform at our wedding was a no-brainer! Two years ago we saw them perform at a bar and the second they played their first song, we immediately asked who they were because we were absolutely blown away by their talent. Fast forward to planning our wedding day, we HAD to book this band. The Se7en Band exceeded all of our expectations for our wedding! They kept everyone on the dance floor! Our family and friends were AMAZED by their talent, and everyone is still talking about them! In addition, the Se7en Band was a pleasure to work with. We are so thankful that we found them two years ago and even more grateful that they performed at our wedding. They are so much fun!!! If you are looking for the best wedding band ever, please look no further than The Se7en Band. All the best, Amy & Andrew" Based in Levittown, Pennsylvania (23 miles from Philadelphia) Amy & Andrew - wedding Photo of CJ Live CJ Live "From the moment they started, Crystal and Jeff had the crowd at the bar into their set. They are both talented musicians and their song selections had something for every music fan. I look forward to following them and catching their next gig!"

I asked him to play along to a pre-set playlist of EDM songs and he crushed it! Genuinely, brought so much life to the party. He was also communicative and extremely easy to work with. Will definitely be hiring him again!"
