Four Unplugged 
Madisonville, LA
  • Band or Ensemble

What does Four Unplugged sound like? Kind of like a gumbo – a little of this, a little of that all mixed together with some spice and some heat – an old favorite recipe with some new twists that keeps ‘em coming back for seconds every time. Contrary to how the name may sound, the group is a six-piece party band featuring excellent musicians who are all seasoned professionals. Old and new rock ‘n roll classics, funk, Motown, dance party favorites, sing-alongs, hits from today and the always delicious slow-dance staples. We even mix in some hanky-wavin’ Mardi Gras tunes to get our audience all stirred up and on the dance floor.

“Hi my name is Jasmine Wiese, I was recently searching for a Dj to service my wedding back in September of 2026. I spoke with quite a few DJs and kept running into a brick wall with every conversation. After doing more research, I was fortunate enough to stumble across DJ Jacob aka Dj Pulse and I’m so glad I did! From the very beginning, I appreciated his professionalism but also his personable nature, and the genuine connection he created throughout the process. Working with DJ Jacob felt easy and carefree, which made a huge difference in making the wedding planning process less stressful. The only thing that I would do differently is start working on a wedding playlist sooner rather than later. I unfortunately waited later and DJ Jacob still executed a phenomenal job the day of the ceremony and reception. By the way, again, I’m so sorry Dj Jacob for making your job harder. Thank you for doing such an amazing job anyhow. I truly appreciate your help with making the day easy. So with that said, finding a Dj and vendors who are not only great at what they do but also make the experience enjoyable is such a blessing, and DJ Jacob did exactly that! I would 1000% recommend DJ Jacob for any event or service, not just weddings! He’s definitely someone I’ll be keeping in my contacts for future events. If you’re looking for someone professional, personable, and great to work with, I highly recommend reaching out to DJ Jacob aka Dj Pulse. Jasmine Wiese 2026 Bride”

1st Generation Band is where timeless soul meets today’s hottest hits. We bring the SMOKE with that smoking-hot blend of Motown, Beach/Shag, high-energy Pop, R&B, and today’s chart-toppers. From old-school classics to modern vibes, we deliver the perfect mix of smooth, nostalgic cool and fresh, electrifying energy. We don’t just play music — we create moments. We don’t bring water… we bring FIRE 🔥 to your party.

“Disclaimer: these are my words. No silly AI function was used. The short version for the tick tock generation . . . Communication before the wedding 5/5 Timely arrival at venue: 5/5 Friendly band members: 5/5 Ceremony music/officient mic: 5/5 Dinner jazz set: 5/5 Party dancing sets: 5/5 Okay, now the real version of the review, which I'm writing about 24 hours after the party: I am a musician myself, so naturally it made sense for me to handle booking the band. And being right around Nashville, there were many to choose from. Some had better websites, better recordings, more options for arrangements, but I just had this feeling about 1st Generation Band that they would be the most genuine. People who are booking bands for events often underestimate the value of musicians being genuine. There were a few bands that looked better on the internet, sounded better through my iPhone speaker, but that gave me this feeling of being relatively sterile. Live music is an emotional endeavor, so it was important to me to find something that appealed to me emotionally. Authenticity and appealing to emotion became my criterea for a selection, and through that lens, 1st Generation Band became the obvious choice. Morris Drane, band leader and drummer, was in contact with me from the very first moment. Not the obnoxious, over-the-top, calling-all-the-time kind of contact, but instead focused, periodic phone calls and emails and texts that let me know he was invested in making my wedding amazing without making me feel smothered. We corresponded over the last 8 months just the right amount, the right frequency that made me feel secure. And every correspondence was characterized by this genuine enthusiasm on his part. This trend continued from our first contact until the band arrived at the venue. They arrived exactly when they said they would, with all the gear they said they would, and set up shop without needing hardly any help from me or my day-of wedding coordinator. I was extremely late getting him my ceremony playlist, and even then, he texted me just the right amount that got it done without putting any more pressure on me. Not to mention that he gave me a ton of emotional support as I was running around like a headless chicken in the hours leading up to the ceremony. As hectic as my day was, every band member I spoke to was extremely friendly, supportive, and just downright awesome. There was nothing but positivity from them. I felt so comforted knowing that they were so professional. Like I could scratch one major thing off my seemingly endless list of things to worry about. The ceremony went flawlessly, despite me only getting the playlist to him an hour beforehand. He nailed all the cues. Volume was perfect both for music and the officiant's microphone. I also kind of woofed it on getting my cocktail hour playlist to him, but the music they chose was just so spot on. At this point, I couldn't have been more comfortable, and I hadn't even heard the band play yet! Next was dinner, where the band played us in, announced us, and did a quick first dance song before the meal. They absolutely crushed it. Then came the dinner set, where they played a beautiful jazz-focused set at just the right volume. I need to add quickly here that I reached my maximum review length, so I'll wrap it up quickly. The party sets after dinner were perfect. They got everyone dancing, and it was high energy, emotional, authentic, and just the absolute best.”

We don't believe in a one size fits all model, and we're total one-stop-shop for weddings, including: 1. Customizable party bands from 3-13 people 2. Ceremony music add-ons (soloists and small groups) 3. DJ music add-ons (get the best of both worlds!) 4. Cocktail music (soloists & small groups) 5. Second Line Brass Bands (we'll even set up your whole parade!)

“We hired Dat Band for our wedding reception band, and we’re so happy we did. Chad and the crew are seriously great musicians, and we thoroughly enjoyed the 9 piece group with the full horn section. Communication was easy with our contact with the venue, they were on time, and we never had to worry about whether they had things handled. We would absolutely book them again in a heartbeat. Thank you for being such a memorable part of our wedding!”

Music is our passion! Each member of Crescent City Soul is a professional musician, and each one brings not only amazing talent, but also energy and fun to every party they play. We love to watch as the crowd gets more and more energized by the music as the party progresses! We play music for all occasions (party/dance, ceremony, cocktail, dinner, & Second line). We also play all genres of music, which allows us to provide something that everyone will enjoy. Our all 5 star reviews confirm that we do more than just play music - we provide an interactive show that will make your party a night you and your guests will never forget!

“Crescent City Soul made our wedding a night we'll never forget! They are fun, energetic, and extremely talented. Wendy was very responsive and helpful during the planning process. Definitely recommend them for weddings or any event!”
