We're live music experts, wedding enthusiasts, and party starters, infusing every event with energy and full dance floors. We're here to make your wedding the greatest party of your life!

Having a live band at our wedding was our top priority. We first went to a showcase for DEB, and immediately loved the vibes! We hadn't met or seen every member of the band in person before the wedding, so we weren’t sure what to completely expect day-of, but they kicked things off with Talking Heads (a nod to the jam bands we'd mentioned on our preference sheet) and it was perfect from there. They played almost every song we requested and kept everyone dancing the entire night, which honestly felt effortless on their part! What really stood out was how flexible and fun they were, rolling with our ideas while still bringing their own energy to the celebration. Our guests are still talking about the band days later!
