  • Phase One was the BEST!!!

    Best band ever!!!!! Seriously, all of our guests could not stop talking about how great Phase One Band was at our wedding! Rich, the band leader, was so great to work with leading up to the big day. He worked with us to learn what music we enjoyed and how we wanted the evening to flow. They played such a great mix of music for all of guests to enjoy – both young and old – which we so appreciated. The dance floor was filled all night and nobody wanted the night to end. Thank you, Phase One Band, for a night to remember!!

    We had the pleasure of having Phase One perform at our wedding for the ceremony, reception, and after-party, and they absolutely blew us away! From start to finish, they were engaged not only with us but with the entire crowd. Their energy was contagious, and they knew exactly how to read the room, keeping everyone on the dance floor the whole time. The transitions between songs were seamless, and the variety in their set list kept all of our guests—young and old—dancing nonstop. We couldn’t have asked for a better band to set the perfect tone for our big day. Highly recommend Phase One to anyone looking to elevate their event with incredible live music! A special shout out to our Band leader Rich who made the process so easy!

  • Matthew Friedman & Uptown Sounds are the BEST

    We booked Matthew's band having full confidence that they would blow the roof off our venue, and we were not disappointed! The band learned several songs that were not on their already expansive repertoire, and the set list was stellar from start to finish. This band is tight! The musicians would sometimes step out onto the floor, hyping up the crowd, and that's when the night would erupt. So many of our guests said this was the best wedding they ever went to, no doubt due in part to Matthew and his incredible band. I'd recommend them to anyone looking for the best bang for their buck. There is nothing like a live band!

  • Top notch wedding entertainment

    I can’t say enough wonderful things about Phase One, the band hired for my wedding. They delivered above and beyond what I expected for my wedding reception and had people up and dancing almost immediately after the toasts and speeches, like they said they would. Every guest at wedding, both young and old, said that the music was great to both dance to and listen to. I will be recommending them for any couples that I know who are getting married in NJ.
