Sound Investment Entertainment

A band was a must for our wedding, but many were so expensive. I will honestly say I was a little worried because Sound Investment was cheaper than the others we considered. However, they exceeded our expectations. The dance floor was packed the entire night! They learned two songs for us and accommodated all requests. The band even traveled to Baltimore for our event. We highly recommend this band for your wedding or special event.

This band was stellar! I am so shocked by the other reviewer that provided low marks on Sound Investment. They performed at my wedding on June 13th and I was beyond thrilled. They had a great repertoire of songs (they have over 2000 songs - belive me I counted!) and they played every song we requested and we requested quite a few! My dance floor was packed the entire night and the band was one of the first things people complimented us on about the wedding. Both Phil and Michelle have beautiful voices, great energy, and were excellent at getting people out on the dance floor. My group went crazy dancing to "Don't Stop Believing," "Ain't no Mountain High Enough," and "Thriller" to name a few. Michelle even got people singing from the dance floor with "You can't hurry love." The remainder of the instrumentalists were equally talented and fun. Any songs they didn't know, the band easily played recorded versions of. They also learned the instrumentals to Cake "Love You Madly" which I wanted as our entrance song because of how fun it is.I will agree that Phil is a little slow to respond to emails and he took a while to cash my checks; however, the band showed up on time, performed flawlessly, and met all of the promises and agreements that they had made with me which is significantly more important in the grand shceme of things!I was so pleased with this band that I would highly recommend them to any bride to be. Please don't hesitate to email me and I will be happy to act as a reference or provide more details!

The band was only decision we weren't happy with at the wedding. The bandleader was not good at getting people out on the dance floor (as he previously told us he was great at) and he screwed up our big announcement for the giant group picture. He also told us when we first met that he would be able to learn a couple of songs for our wedding. When it came to about 2 weeks prior he said that he only learned one song and we had to argue with him to learn the second song. He almost never replied to our emails and it took phone calls to get any kind of response out of him. He also sometimes would say one thing to me and a different thing to my husband when we called. I would be very hard-pressed to recommend this band to anybody.

My husband is a musician and sound engineer, and he said they were great - I just know they played exactly what we wanted, they let some of my friends take over their instruments to do a few songs, and they didn't strike me as slimey (like another band we interviewed did)
