Such an amazing band! Was willing to work with us to give us everything we wanted, and provided an amazing performance that our guests absolutely raved about! We couldn't have asked for anything better.

CTO High Voltage is one of the best bands I have ever heard at a wedding. The dance floor was packed the entire night. I highly recommend this band. You will not be disappointed.

Maylyn Murphy (band leader) was incredibly easy to work with. We had some unique songs we requested for the first dance, amongst others, and they were completely flexible and willing to go the extra mile to make our day perfect. Their sound was amazing. All of the lead vocals KILLED IT. We received several comments on how great the music sounded and how the dance floor appeared to be packed all night. This was the exact reason we hired CTO Tribeca, as we knew they would keep the energy level high. We loved them!!!

I had the opportunity to listen to CTO Tribeca at a couple of events and 2 showcases prior to my wedding and thought they were fantastic. They exceeded all expectations on my wedding day, however. The band leader, Maylyn is absolutely wonderful to work with and is very responsive in the months prior to the wedding date. They learned a number of new songs just for our wedding, from "When Love Takes Over" remixed by David Guetta for our first dance song to "Scarlet Begonias" by the Grateful Dead....and they did an amazing job with all of them!!! So many people (young and older) at our wedding thought they were the best band they had every heard, and we absolutely thought saw. They were also very comparable in price to bands who were not anywhere near as good. I would never book another band in Philly without going to CTO Tribeca first and would highly recommend them to any couple looking for a band who can play modern music just as well as the traditional music.

CTO High Voltage made our wedding absolutely awesome and such a blast! The amount of energy they have is unreal, and you will definitely have a packed dance floor all night long if you have them at your wedding! Everyone from Carmen to Amanda to Steve were incredible to work with. The band leader, Steve, who we spoke with the most is so nice, helpful and attentive, and he made sure from start to finish that we were happy with everything they had planned. We still have people talking and raving about the band and how incredible they were and how they have never been to a wedding with a band near as amazing as CTO High Voltage! If you have the opportunity to have this band at your wedding, book them now, and you will not be disappointed!

I have been in the events buisness for over 10 years. I have been present and planned hundreds of events and Rhe DeVille by far was the best entertainment I have ever witnessed. CTO listened to what the vision of my wedding day was and delivered to me above and beyond any expectation I could have possibly imagined. Their quick responses, knowledge of product, professionalism, and costomer service is unheard of... I truly can't believe it really happened. Thank you, thank you, thank you... for the night of our lives!!! Katie and Tom Hartshorn

CTO High Voltage ROCKED our wedding. Fabulous communication, playlist and SOUL! The dance floor was packed and even kept down the bar bill, because no one wanted to leave the action. What a night!! Friends from Minneapolis, California, NY, Colorado, KS, Missouri, Chicago, Connecticut, all thought we had flown these rock stars to Naples ~ if you want your party to soar , don't settle for anyone else!!

CTO Park Avenue played for our wedding at Tendenza on 12/3/11. They were absolutely amazing! The dance floor was packed the entire evening. Veronica and her band were a pleasure to work with. They played all special requests and learned new songs for us as well. Veronica also made herself available for 2-3 phone calls lasting over 30 minutes in length before the wedding going over every detail of the night. I also had the pleasure of working with Carmen, the owner of this wonderful company. Carmen, you told me you would not let me down...and this was 100% the truth. Going with a CTO band was the easiest and best choice I made for my wedding. Its been almost 2 weeks since the wedding and guests are still asking about the band and raving about how wonderful they sounded. If you don't choose Park Ave or another CTO band you are missing out!

CTO Grand Central provided our reception music for our wedding at Whitemarsh Valley Country Club. Where to start...so many things that I loved about them, but simply said...They were great! And very flexibile! They played piano during cocktail hour. During dinner, they played beautiful "dinner" music alternating between guitar and piano. All the guests loved it! We didn't have any complaints that they were too loud. The guests were still able to have a conversation with each other without straining their voices during dinner. Then, it came time for the dancing and the real dance party music! They really amped it up not only on stage, but in the crowd! Yes, they jump on the dance floor and dance with the crowd! (I think their signature song is "Shout". This is a must see!) Not only did they sound great, but they learned new songs that we requested for our bridal party intros, dinner, and dance party. I was afraid I was driving them nuts with my details and special requests, but they were great to work with! A great variety band for all ages..I definetly recommend them!

November 12 was the first time I worked with CTO Park Avenue for the Museum's Annual Gala. They had an amazing repertoire, great talent, and kept the guests on the dance floor -- no easy task considering our Gala supporters vary in age and musical taste. Veronica the band leader was great at quieting the audience during the program, and CTO's CEO Carmen Tomassetti was extremely gracious and stayed for a majority of the Gala to ensure all went smoothly. We also contracted with CTO for a DJ at the Young Friend's Gala, and two contemporary violinists during our cocktail hour. Both were equally impressive. I will definitely be doing business with CTO Park Avenue again in the future! -Jannine Malave, Director of Donor Relations and Special Events, NMAJH

TRIBECA did an amazing job and performance at our wedding! Our guests had SO much fun and can't stop talking about how fantastic you were. Tribeca made the reception a hit! Thank you for learning the two songs we requested and for patiently answering all my questions leading up to the wedding. We especially loved at the end of the night, how you made sure my husband and I were there for the last song and surrounded by all of our family and friends on the dance floor, it was such a cool moment that we will remember forever. You made our day a dream come true and we can't thank you enough! You were a pleasure to work with and we wish Tribeca much success, you guys deserve it!

One word …Unbelievable! I have referred CTO High Voltage to many of my clients so it was without hesitation that they were my first choice when planning my own wedding. I also hired ROCK STRINGS from CTO for the ceremony and dinner reception. They too were amazing and added such a unique feel to the evening!!!! I will say that the most special touch was the female vocalist who sang AT LAST when I walked down the aisle with my father …choir robe and all thanks to Carmen, the President of CTO! If you are in search of an event to remember you really only have one option ….CTO! Cheers!

CTO Tribeca was WAY beyond our expectations. We are at that age where we are going to so many friends weddings a year and have been somewhat unimpressed by the entertainment we have seen. The music was a big focus for us at our wedding and we (like most couples) wanted the dance floor crowded the whole night. I don't think we were prepared to have all 250 of our guests on the dance floor the whole night, and that's what happened. Everyone had so much fun and they are still talking about it. CTO Tribeca sounds amazing, and their energy is contagious. Maylyn was even on the dance floor singing along with all of us. They made our reception and I can honestly say it wouldn't have been as fun with anyone else. As a bride going through the planning process, I wish every vendor was as easy to work with as Maylyn, Carmen, and the CTO staff. Maylyn responded immediately to every email I sent her and was so flexible with our song requests since we were very particular about what types of music and songs to play. I am beyond thrilled with our experience and can't wait to go to another wedding where CTO Tribeca plays!

Tribeca was wonderful, they made our wedding a PARTY! Maylyn was a terrific band leader, very helpful and easy to work with leading up to the event and during the reception itself. We had so many guests tell us how much they enjoyed the music and literally everyone- even our friends and family who DON'T dance- were up on the dance floor getting down. We will be recommending them highly to anyone we know getting married in the future and planning a wedding, or just wanting to have a great party. Thank you so much Tribeca!

This is the note I sent to Carmen after my daughter's October 8th wedding in Cape May NJ: Hi Carmen, I just had to send my warmest thanks to you for providing the best music ever to make my daughter's wedding a truly remarkable event. The acoustic strings were positively beautiful! The music throughout the cocktail hour was amazing and Park Central, well they were through the roof. Every single person commented about how terrific they were. I personally never left the dance floor. They played straight through with no breaks and that was fantastic for all of our guests. I will def. pass on the word as to where my friends need to go for their entertainment needs. Thank you Carmen, and please convey our thanks to all of the talented musicians who helped to make the affair extra special. With sincere gratitude, Cari Young (mother of the bride)

CTO 5th Avenue were incredible!! They rocked it! All 183 of our guests were on the dance floor before dinner was even served and they stayed dancing the whole night. Their transitions from song to song were outstanding. Their energy was contagious and they sounded amazing. They played all types of music from Motown to 80's to current music - each song was better than the last. I would HIGHLY recommend this band. Not only did they learn the songs we requested, but they were so great to work with. You need to book this band!!!!

I was impressed by CTO from the first time I previewed them. I decided to hire the rock strings and central park for my wedding. This was two of the best decisions of my day. CTO was easy to work with and very responsive with all my questions. I lived in London during my wedding planning and CTO made it very easy to work with them. I would recommend them for every event.

Maylyn and CTO Tribeca were absolutely amazing!!! Maylyn was easy to work with prior to the wedding and did a great job of leading the night along. They were all extremely talented and had everyone on the dance floor all night long- from our friends to our grandparents! CTO Tribeca was able to play any song we requested, and read the mood of the room to ensure the music ran smoothly. We seriously could not be more thrilled with CTO Tribeca - they made our wedding into the party we hoped for!
