We didn’t want the music to end!
Uptown Groove exceeded every expectation/dream we could have had for our wedding band! In the months leading up to our wedding, Seth worked to ensure every single moment was accounted for. He helped us create a set list that felt authentic to us and the energy we wanted to create and share with loved ones. He is incredibly thoughtful, communicative, detail-oriented and was such a pleasure to work with! On our wedding day, we had the pleasure of working with Harper as our MC and lead vocalist. We had seen videos of Harper beforehand and were so excited to hear him live and wow….he (and truly the entire band) blew us away. We felt like we were in the songs, dancing to the original versions. Weeks later, we’re still hearing from friends and family about how incredible the band was. I’ve already had a few people reach out for their name to book in the future! You truly couldn’t ask for better experience. Everyone is so kind, professional, and unbelievably talented. We wish we could replay the night (specifically the dancing) all over again! THANK YOU, Uptown Groove!

INCREDIBLE!!!!!
We had Uptown Groove for our wedding this past weekend and they were just unbelievable. Music is just such a big part of the vibe and energy that day and they absolutely crushed it from end to end. During the reception they brought the house down- no one left the dance floor- people were even crowd surfing!! They made our wedding so special. I had over 50 guests tell me it was the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding- not even exaggerating! On top of that they were so incredibly helpful through the whole process- they helped with my audio for the reception, planning my timeline, played through cocktail hour and dinner- and made the entire process so easy. They also have so much range from current pop hits to oldies to punk/emo to r&b it was crazy how versatile my playlist was. I can’t recommend them enough- you won’t regret getting them!!

Hire This Band!!!
You must hire Uptown Groove for your wedding because they are 10/10! From the moment they started playing, every person was on the dance floor. As the bride, I don't think I stopped dancing for a second! The band's energy was unmatched, their sound quality was exceptional, and their organization and professionalism are truly fantastic. In the months leading up to the wedding, Seth thought of every little detail and orchestrated a plan that made the night so smooth. The transitions were impeccable, keeping our special day right on schedule. I really can't say enough about the caliber of this band. They covered so many different genres and styles, appealing to all generations, and had people from ages 7 to 97 on the dance floor all night long. Absolutely exceptional talent -- we highly recommend them for you wedding or next big event!

This band is incredible!!!! They delivered a truly unforgettable performance. The musicianship was fantastic, and their incredible setlist had guests of all ages dancing all night. They played all genres, huge repertoire and full of personality! Harper- the band leader, really stood out - extremely charismatic, and did an amazing job interacting with the crowd to keep the party going. They were absolutely off the charts!!! Thank you for an amazing night! 10/10 recommend!

Wedding
Book. Them. Now!!! Seth & The Uptown Groove are THE most talked about part of my wedding. The dance floor was packed ALL night, even when they weren’t even playing because their back up playlist was still that good. They accepted requests and somehow made every request no matter what genre blend so seamlessly from the previous song. I was brought to tears from pure joy and gratitude at the end of the night because they exceeded every expectation. I could not recommend them more!!! Thank you Uptown Groove ️
