Golden Bell Music
Golden Bell offers a unique musical blend that packs a high-energy punch! The DJ/live fusion band, or DJ/live band hybrid, is always anchored on a DJ set but supported by live musicians.

We offer you the best of both worlds: the energy of a live band, the freedom and flexibility of a DJ. We pride ourselves on our team of world class musicians, and we guarantee a dance party your guests will brag about for years. ***Our pricing varies depending on the event scope, location and the number of musicians included, so they may vary a bit from our rough estimates.

I wish there were more than 5 Stars offered!
Weddings are only as good as the food, booze and band.....and Golden Bell helped make our event and extraordinary event. We hired a 3 piece ensemble, with Nico as our DJ/contact person. The horns were amazing, all members engaged with our guests, the music was curated between the band and bride/groom, and no one wanted the dancing to end. The group was on time, efficiently set up, provided all contracted items, etc. We are so fortunate that we hired Golden Bell for our mountain wedding event. They really exceeded our expectations.
A MUST for your wedding or event!
Golden Bell brought the ENERGY for our wedding weekend! We could not be happier with their services. The live brass and drums completed elevated our dance floor and all of the other MC services were smooth and seamless. Could not recommend them more!
Don’t think, just book this band right now
Golden Bell was exactly what we wanted for our wedding. Original versions of songs but accompanied by the energy of live instruments. Golden Bell was professional and communicative from start to finish and our guests have been raving about them ever since the wedding. If you book them, you will find that your guests who don’t normally like to dance or stay until the end of a reception will be on their feet the whole time with huge grins on their faces. My wife and I could not have been happier with how things turned out.
Poppin’ party!
We had Golden Bell perform for our wedding reception and they were amazing! Our guests were so impressed, they had never seen a live music/DJ combo before. Paul, our DJ, was very easy to work with and quick to respond to our emails and questions. We had another musician perform at our cocktail hour and perform for the first dance, Paul was so kind to reach out to the musician to discuss what would be needed to connect to their sound system. The photo booth was a hit, we all had some great laughs looking at all the fun the guests had that evening. I think the only thing we would have done different was to throw in a few slow songs just to give couples a chance to have a sweet moment on the dance floor together (and catch our breaths!), but dance floor still was popping all night! Overall, a wonderful experience and helped to make our wedding memorable and special. Thank you Golden Bell!
