We set everything up with the Royal Dukes Band ... then Corona hit ... but their commitment to us and flexibility never wavered! The professionalism leading into the event made us very comfortable and then we had multiple special requests, which they executed too. Plus, the music - which was absolutely incredible.

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

DJ Phil Does It was absolutely fantastic to work with for our wedding. From the very first conversation, Phil was prompt, friendly, and professional in his communication. On the day of the wedding, his work exceeded our expectations - the transitions between songs were seamless, and he had such a cool, laidback personality that added to the vibe of the reception. One of our favorite parts was the immense amount of vinyl records for our guests to pick from and request songs - it was such a unique and fun touch that our guests raved about. We couldn't have asked for a better DJ. Highly recommend DJ Phil Does It for any couple looking for an experienced, talented DJ to make their wedding day special.

Our goal is to curate the perfect entertainment at every event to execute our client's vision from start to finish. Uptown Drive has a very diverse song catalog that is well suited to serve as the soundtrack to your wedding reception or to be featured at your corporate event. We also offer an amazing interactive (live band karaoke) element to our corporate shows which is a total hit! We love to highlight our musicianship while playing the best dance songs from the Motown / Soul eras all the way through the hits of the 80s, 90s, 2000s, and today’s top 40.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I am pretty much speechless because this band is THAT good. I first want to compliment, Greg Williams, the owner of Uptown Drive. From booking all the way through wedding day, he was nothing but responsive, respectful and a pleasure to work with. As for the reception, they made it what it was! I think what is incredible about them is they entertain everyone (not only those dancing on the dance floor) because every song is a TRUE performance. I am not lying when i say this, every time I have seen someone that attended my wedding, every one of them (young or old) comment on how great the band was. FYI I'm three months out from my wedding, so I've seen a lot of my guests since then. They played the right music while everyone was eating and visiting and knew exactly how to transition to dance floor time by doing a conga line. They let my husband and I get on stage and sing which we will remember and cherish forever. They came out into the crowd and let out our guest sing. They came out in the crown and danced with us! Me and some of my guests joke that we would like to have another wedding just so we can have them play again. I could absolutely not recommend this band anymore! Stop here and BOOK THEM!!! P.S. I have included some pics to show you how much of a good time me and all our guest were having. - AN EXTREMLY HAPPY BRIDE

If I could give a million stars I would. Mikaela and her sweet husband, plus an incredibly talented pedal steel player, CRUSHED our ceremony. As soon as I heard them start to play while I was hiding away before I walked down the aisle I was crying. You can tell that they absolutely just love what they do and I am forever grateful for how special they made our ceremony. Everyone was coming up to me throughout the night to say just how spectacular they were playing!!! On top of that, Mikaela was an ABSOLUTE GEM to work with. She’s kind, listens, and is just the type of person you know you’d be friends with. I’m so glad I found her and enjoyed every second of working together. Again, HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend. No one better!!!!!!

Mr Austin Dj

Austin, TX
  • DJ

Christian brings over 22 years of experience to your wedding or special event and is highly acclaimed as a premier wedding professional in Austin and high performance DJ worldwide. If a busy dance floor, music sound quality, volume control, customized music planning, infectious and enthusiastic MC’ing, high caliber DJ mixing skills is a priority at your wedding or special event contact Christian to set up a consult and vision sharing call or in person meeting.

We knew Christian from the wedding industry (I’m a venue owner in Austin) and his DJ sets at clubs around the city. When my wife, Kari, and I decided to get married in Tulum, we knew the music and party were going to be some of the most important aspects of the day—it sets the tone for everything: the ceremony, pre-ceremony vibes, the walk, dinner, reception, and of course, the party. Christian went above and beyond. He met with us, listened to our vision, and even challenged us where needed to ensure we got the experience we truly wanted, rather than trying to make everyone else happy (which, let’s be honest, you can’t). That perspective was invaluable. We trusted Christian so much that we chose to book him and have him travel with us to Tulum rather than hiring someone local. We knew he was the absolute best man for the job, and he proved us right. The result? The best day and party of our lives. To this day, people STILL talk about how epic it was. Christian had everyone dancing—friends, family, parents, aunts, uncles, kids. The energy was unmatched, and the music flowed seamlessly through every part of the day. If music is a priority for you—if you truly appreciate the art of it and want it to elevate your wedding or event—Christian will not disappoint. A world-renowned DJ and producer who knows how to curate the perfect experience, he’ll make your day unforgettable.

I knew I wanted a DJ that was familiar with the Rabb House sound system limitations and I saw Jason had worked the Rabb House before. He offered a discount if we paid in cash and threw in extras like uplighting which really helped set the mood. He listened to and followed our preferences for music and, I was surprised, actually got people dancing. He was great a emceeing the event as well, very helpful announcements and not cheesy.

Doug Anthony - Solo Guitar Austin 

5.0

Austin, TX
  • Solo performer

I have been playing guitar in Austin, Texas... ...since 1989. I am a full time musician and I perform regularly for corporate events and weddings. Even though I have been playing the guitar for so long there is still so much to learn. I enjoy the process of learning new things and improving on what I already know. There are endless ways you can play a song and there are so many good songs to play. I was born in 1966 so I am heavily influenced by the music around that era which explains The Beatles, Stevie Wonder and The Great American Songbook.

Doug Anthony Solo Guitar is at the top of my A-List of go-to acoustic guitarists in the Austin Texas market. What I arrive at a venue to officiate a wedding and I see that Doug is the guitarist, I know it's going to be perfect! I've also had the pleasure to see him out and about playing in different pubs around town, and at private events. He never disappoints. I highly recommend Doug Anthony Solo Guitar for your next event.
