    5 Years Later, Still The Best

    It’s been 5 years since my wedding and my husband and I (and our friends!) still talk about this band. It was the highlight of our reception and we haven’t yet been to another wedding whose music compares to ours. They brought so much energy and joy and set such a great mood for the night. This was without a doubt the best vendor money we spent on our wedding.

    Best wedding band in PA

    Downtown Sound is the best wedding band! Solid musicians with incredible energy all night. We requested mostly older stuff, 1960s-2000s, with lots of rock, funk, R&B, and soul. They tailored their set lists to our preferences perfectly. It could not have been a better vibe! We opted for the 7-piece band: guitar, drums, keys, bass, 2 vocalists, saxophone. Highly recommend getting at least 1 brass player. Mary Kate (vocalist) was so helpful during planning and was so great to work with. She took some of the stress off us and made sure the night went super smoothly. Everyone is still raving about the band 6 months later! They were such a huge part of the night, and it was perfect. They also let me jump in with them for a couple songs (I play guitar) which was a treat. Truly top-tier professional musicians. Cannot recommend this band enough!
