The Moon Units: Weddings & Events

Band

Hi, we're The Moon Units! We're known throughout California for our 1,000+ song list, our authentic on-stage chemistry, and performances that clients have called "better than the original bands" that recorded the songs. And because we're a real band, we offer prices that are just a fraction of what corporate booking agencies charge. We can't wait to play for you!

Five things set The Moon Units apart from other wedding bands. 1. Versatility: We know over 1,000 songs in all sorts of genres, and add new ones all the time. 2. Talent: Our players and singers hail from top music programs like Berklee College of Music, UCLA, and CalArts. 3. Authenticity: Ever go to a wedding and think the band was so ridiculously cheesy? Not The Moon Units! We're as authentic as a band you'd see in live club or theater. 4. Fun: How does fronting the band during live band karaoke sound? You can do it! It's available with all our packages. 5. Respect: We treat our clients with respect and never slap them with hidden fees.

Run, don't walk to hire the Moon Units!
You should absolutely hire this band. Every single guest at the end of the night came up to us saying how good the band was! They kept the whole crowd dancing, singing, and the energy high all night. They made our wedding SO much fun and honestly exceeded every expectation we had. The dance floor was packed from start to finish, and we couldn’t have asked for a better band to celebrate with. If you’re debating whether to book them, do it — you will not regret it!

Thank you so much, Shelby! We had an absolutely fantastic time with you and Noah. You guys exuded fun and positivity from beginning to end, and that energy spread across the entire wedding. Thank you so much for letting us be your band!

Incredible and Kept everyone on the dance floor
The Moon Units: Weddings & Events made our wedding day unforgettable. From our first conversation, they were quick to respond and easy to work with, which took a lot of stress out of the planning process. Their singers and musicians were truly talented and kept our guests dancing the entire night with smart song choices that had everyone engaged. They made our first dance feel extra special, and we heard nothing but compliments from guests all evening long. If you're looking for a band that can deliver both incredible talent and an energetic atmosphere, The Moon Units is the way to go.

Incredibly Talented, Fun, and Professional
The Moon Units were an incredibly important piece of our wedding weekend, and weeks after the event we still have guests reaching out about how blown away they were by the band. They are an incredibly talented group of musicians, playing everything from Rush to Robyn and Steely Dan to Sir Mix-A-Lot. They were unbelievably good at working with and understanding the 'vibes' of my wife and I, curating an exceptional setlist that had something for every age and musical interest. Highlights for us included walking down the aisle to an acoustic version of "Champagne Supernova", and dancing at the reception to "Tom Sawyer", 'Bring Me To Life", "The Impression That I Get", and "Dancing on My Own", but they have a list of over 1,000 songs and can really do any sort of music you're looking for. They're professional, friendly, and talented, and my only regret is that we can't get married again to hear them play one more time. As one guest said to me at the wedding, "I've never seen literally every single person on the dance floor at a wedding before, but they had everyone partying for three hours straight".

Thank you so much, Noah! You and Courtney threw the most incredible party, and we were so honored to play for you. Amazing energy and amazing song choices by the two of you. It was a thrill to be a part of it and really gratifying to see people having such an awesome time. Thank you again!

Blown away by this band!!
The Moon Units are AMAZING! They played at our wedding about a week ago and all night our guests kept coming up to us and saying how awesome the band was and asking me how I found them. And I found them on the internet thanks to other people's glowing reviews! I only have the most positive things to say about them. From day 1 of reaching out to them, Dylan (he is in the band and handles the bookings) was wonderful at communicating and answering all of our questions. Pricing was very reasonable and well worth the money!!! They have over 900 songs they can play. As a bride I was torn all night between going to chat with guests and staying on the dance floor!!! I cannot recommend The Moon Units enough. Our day of coordinator and venue coordinator, who have seen many many weddings, were so impressed with the band they got Dylan's contact info so they can refer other clients to The Moon Units.

Thank you so much, Laura. We had such a wonderful time playing for you, Dustin, and your friends and family. Just a fantastic group... with a fantastic setlist chosen by the two of you. We didn't want the night to end. Thank you again for including us in such an awesome celebration!

Best Wedding band!
We hired The Moon Units for our wedding and they completely exceeded our hopes and expectations and made the night unforgettable. Dylan, the band director, is very friendly and responsive, and helped us decide what we wanted for our big day. We decided to do live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour which was such a special touch. Their song list is incredible with a huge selection to choose from. On top of that, they learn three additional songs of your choosing. It meant so much to hear those specific songs played live by such a talented group. They welcomed our guests up on stage to sing during our reception which were some of our favorite moments of the night. We had so many guests come up to us — and continue to text us afterward — raving about how good the band was. We could not recommend them more highly!

Thank you so much, Jenn! It was such an awesome wedding, from the postcard-perfect ceremony to the last notes of the rocking reception. What an honor to play for you and Julian! Thank you for choosing us and for these kind words!
