Know any good wedding bands?

[Cary Kollins]

Currently looking everywhere for the perfect wedding band. I've seen some good stuff out of Greensboro but haven't checked out Charlotte bands yet. Looking for a band with some soul/funk influences...not just typical wedding top 40 cover stuff. Our price range is around $2-5k.

Any recommendations?

I have been to over a hundred weddings.

 

Every single one of the best receptions I have ever been to had a DJ.

You can email them to find out their price....though I suspect it might be out of your range. Hah.

Yea I believe that. My fiancé really wants the band, maybe I'll be able to convince her otherwise.

Is it in Charlotte?

 

If so, call Vinny with Split Second Sound. He also does the music for the Panthers in the booth on game days. He is awesome.

Atlantic Beach, NC. I'll look into that though...haven't been impressed with dj's out of Eastern NC. I don't think they understand we don't want one country or beach music song.

Ah yes, Beach Music. Otherwise known as soulless motown for white people.

Check out the Central Park Band... http://www.thecentralparkband.com/home

They started out as a beach music/cover band back in the days when my dad was one of the founders, but they have progressed over the years into pretty much a play-it-all band. Pops is no longer with them, hasn't been for a long time, but one of the guys was like my uncle when I was growing up.

We just hired this band to perform at a 60th birthday party for my dad and they were fantastic. They play lots of different styles of music. I believe they're based out of Virginia, but they travel all over the Carolinas to play. They interact well with a crowd, and are pretty affordable, too. Highly recommended.

This is one of the better booking agencies in the charlotte area.  They employ bands from all over and are reasonable with their rates.  Might give them a look, and hey, one of my bands is on there, but I won't tell you who we are.

Also, I personally agree with the DJ comments.  People at weddings want to dance to familiar music, and it's tough for a live band to cover all the songs that people like to hear and do it well.  Plus a DJ will be cheaper, rightly so.
