Hank Lane Music

at weddings! Everyone kept remarking about the band and how it was the most fun they'd had dancing in years. Every single member of the band was a rockstar and we are so glad we got to know the and hired them for our wedding. It's a no brainer!!

ot worry- I will find you a band and you will have the best day ever”…. and boy did she deliver. Octane showed up all ready on hours notice, with nothing but incredible energy. They mastered all of our first dance songs, and our guests can not stop talking about how it was the best wedding band they’ve ever seen. I can not believe how incredible the day was. Would recommend Hank Lane and Octane a million and one times over!!!! They are angels

Allie made the entire process seamless! She is also so kind and great at communicating. She helped us pick out DJ Jonathan, as well as accompanying live musicians, plus musicians for our ceremony and cocktail hour. She was extremely knowledgeable in every aspect. We also worked with Chris Prestamo as the wedding got closer - he is so kind and made picking out music so much fun! Having both Allie and Chris helping us out made our wedding stress at a minimal!! It also helped that all of the musicians and DJ were incredible!!! If you want you and your guests to dance all night long, hire DJ Jonathan for sure!! He was spot on with the music and we had so many compliments from our guests :)

c, to see if we wanted anything in particular next or even just to let us know what was coming up. If you want to have a great party, hire Matt.

rience for us. To top it off our guests have been calling us daily asking who our band was and confirmed that they were the best they have ever seen!

gs to pick. During the party they had everyone up and dancing which was exactly what we were hoping for. You won’t regret booking the Jenna Wynne band!

he room and it was all thanks to Jeff & the band! They are BEYOND talented and were able to perform everything from Andrea Bocelli, to Cher, to AC/DC, and more. Jeff was such a pleasure to work with from the start and took all of our asks into consideration. He was always accessible and we had numerous calls/emails leading up to the day of the wedding to ensure everything was perfect. They were even able to play MP3's of classic Greek music in between sets for our family to enjoy! If you are looking for a wedding band, Hank Lane is always the way to go and once you are there, pick Jeff Lubin! You will not be disappointed. Thank you Jeff Lubin Band for making our wedding dreams come true despite the craziness of 2020!!

most amazing voice, was so kind throughout the night and always had a smile on her face. She and the rest of the band were so talented, were so great at getting the guests up and dancing, and sang the best songs! They were so great at honoring the requests I had sent in in advance while also going with the flow when my brother asked if he could play a song on the keyboard mid-reception. So many people came up to me throughout the night and afterwards to say how amazing the band was, and that’s something that was really important to me. I wanted people to have a fun night and enjoy themselves on the dance floor, and it was so nice to hear that, because of Harmony, they had a great time! Many people even said that it was the best wedding band they’d ever heard! Hank Lane has many amazing bands, and I’ve heard a lot of them, but I would say that Harmony is by far the best of them all, and I’d highly recommend them to anyone!

ng at other weddings or parties, danced the night away. Towards the end of the evening guests were begging to have the band keep on playing. One guest even offered to pay for another hour!

eos of them. I wanted an upbeat ceremony and they knocked it out of the park. They made mash ups of songs that tied together the older and younger generations. They read the room and played accordingly. They're GORGEOUS. Chioma is truly a special person. I'd do anything to party with them again.

ng about them. AMAZING!

s blown away!! Everyone is still taking about it!! While dancing the night away, one of my bridesmaids even said to me, “ok, your band is the best, even better than mine.” The whole experience with Hank Lane was exceptional. They are very professional, responsive and very very easy to work with. We personally chose the Kenny Ford band when Kenny sang ants marching by the Dave Matthews Band.... when we heard that voice we knew we had to have him. They listened to all of our requests and incorporated all of the various genres and decades of music we wanted - everything from Britney Spears to Frank Sinatra. Everything was PERFECT. I could go on and on, but just know that if you hire the Kenny Ford band you will be BLOWN AWAY and your guests will say, hands down, that it’s the best band they’ve ever heard at a wedding - that’s guaranteed!

h and professional throughout the entire process. Would highly recommend!

l with the flexibility of a DJ. I definitely recommend the DJ/Band hybrid if you want the live music vibe but also need your millennial pop to be played too ;)

ning- quick to email, scheduled FaceTime meetings on our schedules. On the day they did our ceremony music and sound and were willing to play our exact choices. They also were playing continuously through the entire reception. They were flexible to our needs and so excited and upbeat when planning. Karen crushed it being our MC and did a beautiful job introducing all our speakers. Everyone said they had so much fun dancing with the band- they played all our requests and kept the party going all night! Again- would 100% recommend!

us about our options. We ended up choosing The Kenny Ford Band and we could absolutely not have asked for a better band. From the start, we worked with Stephanie who is the band coordinator. She was extremely helpful and had a lot of suggestions on things that we were unclear on. She was always extremely responsive to our emails and willing to hop on a call to talk through anything. At the wedding, Kenny and the band absolutely blew everyone away. They touched on nearly every song from our list and kept the crowd going the entire night. Just when I thought they were playing the best song, they would follow it up with something even better. The entire wedding was up and dancing nearly the entire time (even throughout dinner!) It has been about a month since our wedding and we are still getting messages from wedding guests asking who our band was since it was "the best band that they have ever heard." We could not be happier with our decision to use the Kenny Ford Band. I only hope that I end up at more weddings where they are playing!! I would give 10 stars if I could!!!!!!!!!

“must play” songs and everything else they chose on their own and they killed it. Dane and his band were really fun to work with and gave us not only a great party, but an awesome night to remember. Everyone was singing and dancing and we closed out the night with the entire wedding singing "Piano Man." Before our wedding Dane had sat down with us to get a feel for our taste in music and the night of the wedding they completely nailed our music taste!! I had multiple people ask me in the days following our wedding for the band's information because they were "the best band they ever heard" and that could not be more true!! Thank you Dane and the band for everything!

the dance floor to hype up the crowd. Many people told us it was the best wedding band they have seen. She was able to play all genres and styles of music flawlessly. We really loved the sax player as well!

osh really made the night so fantastic and magical. Thank you all, we will always be grateful for your talent and care!

guitarist, he played jazz/standards during dinner and it was amazing. It was the live music "fix" I needed. His announcing of the wedding party was perfect and he wasn't overwhelming on the mic all night. After speaking to an associate, we decided on the best mix of music for our guests and Josh hit the nail on the head. He was so sweet and we couldn't be more thrilled with our decision. Highly recommend!!

ed the same band for their wedding a few years ago and we loved them then too!

ft early. Jenna kept the energy high and the room filled with melody, we could feel the music in our souls and our feet couldn’t stop moving! . We could have danced all night. People were so impressed with their range of artists and decades. Highly recommend Hank Lane as they are consulate professionals! The music literally made the affair!!

grateful we got them. Dane was amazing to work with, and he truly took our music interests to heart. We wanted 90s alternative and hip hop mixed with some recent hits, and some oldies. DWB did NOT disappoint. Since our wedding, we have had friends and family come forward telling us they had an amazing time, and that the band was by far the best they have ever heard. They are truly an elite band in my eyes. I wish I could plan another event just to have them there. Highly recommend this band!!

band they have ever seen. The right band can make a party and Brooklyn Sound is the right band!!! We absolutely loved their video but their performance that evening was 10 times better than we ever imagined. They came through on any requests we made including learning a Nigerian mother and son song. Their energy level and talent is unbelievable. We loved how they interacted on the dance floor with the bride and groom and all the guests. BROOKLYN SOUND IS WHAT WEDDING DREAMS ARE MADE OF!!!!

like and don't like. The band was amazing and rocked our daytime wedding. The dance floor was packed the entire time. Can't go wrong with Hank Lane. Pricey, yes - but worth the money!

heartbeat! Karen was super sweet from the first time we spoke, and she listened to what we wanted and didn’t want, and she and her band followed through on everything and then some! They had everyone dancing the entire party, and no one wanted it to end! Many of our guests have told us that it was the best wedding they’ve been to, and it is largely in part to our band! I could not thank Karen Lloyd, her band, and Hank Lank music enough for helping our wedding day be the best day of our lives!

how to get the party going- everyone enjoyed the band and have been complimenting about them non stop even weeks after the wedding. I really couldn’t recommend them enough!!!! Thank you for making our wedding day special for us and our guests!!!

ide us to this fabulous band !

ked the entire time and played everything we asked them to. Thank you so much Jenna!

to work with Hank Lane and Jenna Wynne Band!

d my husbands passion for music! My husband and I had picked a difficult song for our first dance that I actually didn’t even expect the band to play, but the song had special meaning to us so we requested it. To my surprise and excitement, Jeff sent me a file of him playing and singing the song prior to the wedding and spoke on the phone with us live to go over details of the live version. Prior we actually had another phone meeting with him where he ran through the whole day with us. It was one of our favorite meetings during the wedding planning process! The day of the wedding the band was so good EVERYONE was on the dance floor. The bands energy was incredible and everyone is so talented! I was shocked at how they were able to handle the diversity of our playlist with such ease and transition! And to end it off, the band knew about my love for Led Zeppelin and we ended the night rocking out to Kashmir! Making this song into a contemporary dance song at a wedding is not an easy task, but even my Mom who always sided with The Who over Zeppelin was dancing her butt off. I would use Jeff Lubin’s Band over and over! I highly recommend them and Hank Lane. The entire process was so seamless and Ali and Jeff Lubin were so fantastic to work with. Planning a wedding is stressful enough, but they made it fun! want

entertaining is inspiring, and he did an amazing job making sure our wedding was dancing the whole night. They really made our wedding so special and everyone was raving about them the whole night. Thank you Artie!!

hour on the phone with us, walking through all the little details, and he welcomed our long list of requests. I would 100% recommend Hank Lane and the Artie Stuart band in particular.

reer researchers, diplomats, architects, engineers, gay, straight, conservative, kids, grandmas, and so it goes. We had people from the US, from Brazil, Nigeria, Jamaica, others living most of their lives on the go particularly in Europe. We basically exchanged emails to get on the same page regarding budget. Then, eve tho I took a long time to respond some of those emails - I mean, months -, they were always prompt and very pleasant in their replies. They also guaranteed the budget even tho I was taking so long to respond. Anyway, I had one skype conversation about the concept of the music. I was very precise when it came to the ceremony - for instance, I wanted to play Star Wars, Jurassic Park, ET, Home Alone, Game of Thrones, and a few other soundtracks while my guests were arriving for the ceremony. Everyone LOVED it, they were totally amazing in going with it! For the ceremony, I had this idea of playing jazz and bossa nova! And they did! The best of all of them! For the dinner and dancing, we had a few songs in mind, but they helped us come up with a concept, and they brought us a playlist that my friends call epic, the best of all times! Culturally inclusive, not cliché AT ALL, really custom-made! They played songs my friends and I had totally forgotten how fun they were - particularly one this Brazilian-Angolan song we still have no idea how they got to it! During the intermission, they played a few of my favorite songs in so much great versions my friends started waving their arms together at the table! They offered a generational approach to our playlist that was a killer! Nobody ever left the dancefloor and we had FUN dancing, it was not like we had to dance to the music, but we couldn’t NOT dance, it was impossible not to smile, or to laugh having fun with each other! They were flexible in terms of how we could pay for it, cause we were going all the way from Brazil and we had some peculiarities regarding credit card policies and things like that, they were very accommodating! All my friends who live in New York got their info with me, it was memorable! They are punctual, they do not bring you any stress, you can simply have a blast!

Hank Lane to narrow down the list of bands but once we saw the video of the Michael Hart band we knew that they were perfect. We even finalized our wedding date based on Michael Hart's availability. I'm still hearing from friends and family about how this was hands down the best band they have every seen - including "10 times better than Justin Timberlake's performance at the Super Bowl" (which was the next day). I would also recommend going for an electric fiddle in the band - our fiddler was amazing and it really comes across as unique compared to other wedding bands I've seen. Michael was fabulous to work with and such a great guy - they were able to play everything from Barry White to Zedd and everything in between. All around such a positive experience - everyone needs to use this band!

y were amazing and made our wedding. They exceeded all of our expectations and we are so happy we chose them. Frank, the band leader, was easy to work with and listening to all of our requests. We spoke to him a few times before our wedding and everything went off without a hitch. Our wedding would not have been the same without LUXE. Thank you LUXE!!!

ncredibly talented, versatile and interactive! My feet and face are killing me from dancing and smiling so much. THANK YOU!! Would recommend to anyone for sure!

dance floor the entire night! I would highly recommend booking with them!

ight long and I am not a dancer! Dane Wright is also a sweetheart and when I met with him a month prior I was so excited to have him play my wedding. He is also an incredible drummer, singer and excellent MC! Book The Dane Wright band for your wedding, they are absolutely amazing!

cky we got such a wonderful group of people to make our wedding so perfect!!!

he was prompt and organized. The dj was great and most of our guests danced all night. He played our request s and threw in other great choices that everyone loved. My one comment is that I made a last minute change at the request of a family member to change the processional songs (2 days before) and though it was confirmed it wasn't fully communicated to the musicians and they played our original selections. Not a huge deal considering I knew it was last minute and I liked our original songs as well. Overall, it was great and we would definitely reccomend.

eceived at my wedding. From the day I met with Spencer in the NYC office, a year and a half before my wedding with a full set list and subsequent demands, to the countless emails back and forth to Stephanie requesting that my band learn songs two weeks before my wedding that were climbing the charts (um, hi, I obviously need them to play Chainsmokers!), to special requests for entrances/father&daughter dances and deep tracks from obscure bands, the night was everything I dreamed of and more. I told myself there is no way they're going to do everything they said they were, but they did. Every song I asked for, with some other songs that they picked that flowed just right, was played. No one was sitting down. People said they felt like they were at a concert, which is exactly what I wanted. I could not be happier with the service from Hank Lane, or the quality of the band I picked, Rhythm Revue. Thank you all so much, you made my day so unforgettable!

stop raving about the band. Ironically, when it was time to choose the band for our wedding we both suggested this band, unbeknownst to either of us. And let me tell you, there was a reason we both remembered them separately and wanted them for our wedding! We initially met with Justin a year before our wedding and he really took us through the process and helped us make decisions. He was extremely patient and sat with us for over 3 hours to make sure all our questions and needs were met. In our specific situation, our venue required us to work with their in-house sound engineers. When I told them that we had the Pete Saunders Band, their response was "they are amazing to work with and you have nothing to worry about." Pete Saunders himself met with us a month before the wedding. He is the Hank Lane music librarian so he pretty much knows any song that was ever written. He helped us come up with song choices when we needed an opinion, he helped us balance both of our parents’ requests as well as our own wants and made it so everyone was happy. He really made sure to understand us as a couple, what music we enjoy to listen and dance to, so that our wedding was a reflection of us. At the end of the meeting I told him I trusted really anything he chose to play the day of the wedding. What was important to me, is that our wedding was a party and that all our guests would be up and dancing. Needless to say, he did not let me down. However, one of the most special moments of our wedding was something that Pete worked on with my Dad. Part of my Dad's toast was he surprised my husband and I with singing us a song. Weeks leading up to our wedding, Pete and my Dad were emailing and talking on the phone to make sure the band would play the song in the right key and helped my Dad with all the logistics. My Dad said, Pete couldn't have been more helpful and was just such a nice and genuine person. The day of our wedding, my Dad performed the song without a hitch. I'm still in shock they were able to surprise me. Not many bands would have been as gracious and helpful as they were. They went above and beyond to make this surprise not only memorable, but something I will cherish forever. The band was absolutely incredible throughout the entire night. Guests did not sit down and were up dancing the entire night. Pete and his band delivered everything my husband and I asked for! People still are complimenting us on our wedding and it always relates back to how great our band was. They appealed to all ages and I know of several of our guests who have already booked them for their upcoming weddings. I could not recommend them enough! They definitely have that effect on everyone they play for!

full of entertainment. Lori, Danielle, and Steph were a big help when it came to organizing and planning for our big day. From picking the right band down to when different types of songs would be played during the night. Joel and the whole band are all super talented and personable. They felt the crowd and played what they felt was appropriate at each point during the reception. All of our guests are still raving about how entertaining our wedding. Some of our elderly guests were so thrilled that the volume of the music was not overwhelming, but that it was just enough to make people excited and want to dance, but not too overpowering where you could not have a conversation with the person next to you. Many guests also expressed that it was the best wedding music they have heard in their life. My husband got up with the band and Sang a Frank Sinatra song (completely unplanned) and then Joel was on the dance floor with his guitar; I got handed a microphone and my husband got handed a guitar and we were able to have some fun with our guests surrounding us on the dance floor. It was truly an unforgettable night and we have the Joel Young Band and the Hank Lane Music Group to thank for that!

type of music we liked, but told them just make sure everyone was dancing so play whatever you think. Everyone couldn't stop talking about how good the band was. The singers were even out on the dance floor getting everyone into it. No one was sitting that night. They made the wedding so much fun and it was worth every penny. Now my husband and I want to be able to go to a wedding they are playing at so we have more time to enjoy them and their great music.

or the parent dances, so I sort of lost out on my moment with my dad. Overall it wasn't a big deal and a good time was had by all. Not only were Madison Ave. great musicians, but they were great entertainers and really got the crowd moving. Danielle and Allie were awesome to work with. Thanks Hank Lane!

ng was hiring the Dane Wright Band!

t even the most curmudgeonly of aunts smiling and dancing! We had a fantastic experience with Paul and Justin Richards, who guided us every step through the process, and made a daunting task fun and easy the whole way through. I know a lot of people dread the responsibility of picking music, but Paul and Justin put us at ease from the very start. I've been to many weddings with Hank Lane Bands, all of which have been fantastic, but Ernest really put on an amazing show. I can confidently say my wedding had the best music of any wedding I've been to.

now live in California. Planning a wedding from California that is going to take place in New York comes with its challenges but Allie from Hank Lane made booking the band easy and pleasant. She worked with us via Skype several times. She was professional, pleasant and answered all of our questions within a day via email. She recommended Bleaker Street Band, and she was spot on because they were so great! To start they were very accommodating with last minute changes. All night at the wedding people were coming up to us saying how awesome the band was. They really read the crowd and played amazingly, there was dancing all night long! My mother in law literally danced so much her shoes broke! I mean they played Black Hole Sun….how awesome is that?! They even let my husband surprise me by serenading me with Marvin Gaye “Lets Get it On” and then jam on guitar with them for Journey “Don’t Stop Believing. Hank Lane and Bleeker Street Band truly exceeded our expectations! Zero regrets!

arty. We cannot say enough about Marcus Reid and his band!! They were absolutely amazing! Marcus is full of energy and the utmost musical talent. Music is one of the most important elements in a wedding and we wanted to make sure that our guests were up and dancing. Marcus exceeded any expectations that we had. He had our guests dancing the ENTIRE time. His musical renditions are impeccable. A number of times Marcus and his band came out onto the dance floor and interacted with my husband and I, and all our guests. Our guests are still talking about our wedding! Many people have told us that it was the "BEST" wedding that they have ever been to. Marcus Reid and his band were a major factor in making our wedding the perfect event. The staff at Hank Lane Productions are incredibly professional and helped facilitate our song selections and contact with the band. We give the Marcus Reid Band and Hank Lane Productions are highest recommendation!!

did a wonderful job of honoring all our requests! People were raving about them! We almost had a DJ and I am thrilled we went with this band!

ch more. Along with our guests, we were on the dance floor for the majority of the night. Our guests raved about the band members and the singing. They truly made our wedding. We were so happy with our choice.

ng to our interests and giving us the perfect night that we had hoped for. He was confident and knowledgeable as we discussed the plan for the evening and, along with his extremely talented band, did a fantastic job managing our event as an emcee and entertainer. The band was lively and spirited which contributed to a fun, festive atmosphere. This energy was a pleasant addition to the top quality performances that the band provided. They easily navigated a wide variety of genres with their talented range of instrumentalists and vocalists, and they did a great job of balancing songs we had requested with some of their own well-timed selections. Russ checked in with us throughout the night to ensure that we were receiving exactly the performance that we had hoped for, and while we had absolutely no complaints, he certainly demonstrated that he would have been happy to make any on-the-go adjustments had we requested them. Any and all concerns that the night might not go as we had hoped were allayed by Russ and the band. We are incredibly grateful to the Russ Bennett Band for putting so much effort, care and passion into their performance on our special night. They are a superior, talented band that clearly loves what they do, and it shows through in their performances. We would select them again in a heartbeat, and couldn’t recommend them enough to any couple or group that wants to make their special night that much more memorable.

use of them. Our guests were up out of their seats all night long and people are still asking about who our band was. The musicians were off the hook and rocked the party. I love the fact that they were so diverse in playing anything from rock, to classic Frank Sinatra, to hip hop and more. True musical talent-thank you so much!!! Brian and Amanda Miller

exts the next day to tell me how amazing the band was. We included an Italian singer to sing during dinner and our guests were shocked he wasn't a recording/CD. Our favorite band is the Beatles and Jeff is amazing at covering them. Our wedding song was by the Zombies and it was perfect. They played top 100 songs from the radio and it sounded even better being played by them! They even played Weezer for my husband! They were amazing performers and made our wedding! We are so grateful to them and would highly recommend them!!

nd then not sitting for the remainder of the night...we knew this was the band we NEEDED to have at our wedding. The band can either make or break your event...let me tell you this is one of the best bands out there! Michael and his band are incredible. They have such personality -- each member! The music they play is so current and I swear if you didn't think about it you would think they were whatever singer they are singing. Each band member is critical to the band and brings their own special something. Whether its the vocals (singing or rapping) or the instrumentals/beat -- they've got it completely covered! The band was one of the most talked about aspects of our wedding. I had guests coming up to me throughout the entire wedding asking what their name was and writing it in their phone as well as photographing and recording them. I even saw one of my friends grab about 10 business cards -- everyone could not get enough! They are well worth every penny and I couldn't have dreamed of having a more packed dance floor with our guests. Michael was a pleasure to work with. When we met with him about a month before the wedding -- he put all of my nerves to rest. He's so calm, patient and knowledgeable. He actually got up in the middle of our meeting, grabbed his keyboard and played the songs we were talking about throughout our meeting right there! I felt so comfortable working with him. I knew we were in good hands. He was on top of things from the minute we met him until the minute the wedding was over. A true professional! The band members are also top notch. From the musicians to the vocalists, they are unbelievable. Literally, unlike any other band out there. When we saw the band at our cousins wedding, we fell in love with Michael and his whole band (especially Andrew the electric violinist). They rocked our wedding and having Andrew sing and break it down on his violin was a huge crowd pleaser!! Such talent! This is such an eclectic band! The whole band is so enthusiastic and just created the most perfect vibe for our wedding. It was my dream come true. I am so sad that the wedding is over and that I can't hire the whole band to come and party with us on a regular Friday or Saturday night with just my husband and I in our apartment. I can't wait to plan another event and I have my fingers crossed that they will be playing at all of our friends' events in the future. I can't wait to work with them again and will definitely be recommending them to anyone and everyone!

still receiving comments about how amazing our band was, and some of our favorite memories were on the dance floor. We even skipped the cake cutting ceremony because we were having too much fun dancing! .Marcus and the gang really set the tone and kept energy high. They truly rock!

nd there ended up being some songs that I didn't love. But, this did not stop the entire party from dancing all night long and all of the guests seemed to love every song so he probably was just reading the crowd! Would definitely recommend him!!!

of our music requests on a private client section of their website which made organizing everything a piece of cake. The night of, the band even gave us a sweet 90s encore which obviously made the night for all of us 20 somethings. Loved those guys. It was epic.

did not sit down all night. The singers were amazing! I could not be happier. I hope that I get to see them again at another wedding real soon!
