Hank Lane Music

t on the dance floor with the crowd. We didn’t want the night to end!

g and dancing with them on stage. Their song selection was incredible and she truly took all of our music selections to the next level. They read the room so well and knew exactly what the party needed in terms of energy. Jenna was amazing to work with and has the best energy. We were and are truly blown away by their performance! They made the night one to remember for us and every single one of our guests!

r talent. All of our guests said that was the best wedding band they have ever heard and said they felt like they were at a concert! You exceeded our expectations and I am still blown away. As a musician myself, I was amazed by not only your talent but the entire band; from the horn section to the percussion section and vocalists.... OMG! I love how you just kept the songs flowing and loved the mashups!!!!!! I never wanted the night to end and thanks to you I was able to stage dive at least three times into the crowd and felt like a ROCKSTAR on my wedding day. We will be sure to highly recommend you to anyone who is getting married or has an event. Thank you again for making our wedding night the most memorable and incredible night I will always remember. Keep rocking and I wish we could rock out every weekend hahaha. All our best and love, The Gallaghers

ours. My husband and I have very different tastes in music and Jenna did a great job playing songs that we not only both loved, but also songs that appealed to our guests across a variety of ages. Overall, all of our guests could not stop talking about how amazing Jenna and her band were. A friend of ours even mentioned that he wasn’t sure if anyone from the band was playing during the meal portion because the song was so good that it sounded like it could have been a recording from Spotify. Jenna was also very professional and amazing to work with ahead of the wedding in terms of song selection planning for major wedding events (walk-in song, mother-son dance, etc.) and timeline. At the end of our cocktail hour during our first look at the dinner ballroom, my husband and I joked about using the empty dance floor to practice our choreographed first dance. Jenna and her band kindly offered to play our first dance song so that we could practice one last time ahead of the guests entering. It was such an amazing experience that I will never forget. Overall, everything was above and beyond what we could have imagined!

and his band are absolutely unreal. My husband and I’s biggest hope for the reception was that the dance floor would stay packed the whole night, and it absolutely did. Our dance floor was chaos in the best way possible because everyone was going NUTS for the band. We had so, so many compliments about how it was the best band they’d ever heard at a wedding - one guest even said the best band he’d ever heard, period. We also had three very talented string + keyboard musicians for our ceremony and cocktail hour that played beautifully. Thank you, than you, Hank Lane, Steve, and team!!!

band kept the energy up, engaged with our crowd, and played hit after hit. The entire night, our friends and family would not leave the dance floor, and were bummed when the night was over. If you are looking for your wedding band, we HIGHLY recommend Luxe!

talent and energy they kept up for our entire night. It's a week later now and we still have friends mentioning Jenna and her band to us. Our wedding would not have been anywhere near as special without them.

edding was actually going to be cancelled. Dane and his band members showed up despite the crazy weather and brought such great energy. All of our guests raved about them and said they were one of the best bands they have ever heard. They are so consistent - I have seen them twice at other weddings and they always kept everyone on the dance floor. I knew when I got married that I needed to hire them as my wedding band. We worked closely with Dane to curate a playlist leading up to our wedding day and they absolutely crushed all of our requested songs (especially Teen Spirit by Nirvana - which turned out to be a fan favorite among all of our guests). We cannot recommend them and Hank Lane enough!!

d. Our dance floor was packed the ENTIRE night, guests could not believe how incredible the band was - they were complimenting them on the dance floor and have not stopped calling and texting to rave about them. Many said they would love to go to a concert of theirs. Some of our friends were saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to! (Including friends who just got married!) We worked closely with Brian (drummer) to execute our first dance vision and he couldn't have been nicer and more helpful. When we had our call with Dylan the week of the wedding we knew we were in the best hands and it would be an unforgettable evening. Even our venue said the next morning - the band was INCREDIBLE and unlike anything they've seen! CANNOT RECOMMEND DYLAN MATTHEWS ENOUGH!!!!

ests told us it was the best band they have heard at a wedding. We were so happy with our choice and would recommend both Octane and Hank Lane to anyone.

g about how well the band performed every song, kept the energy in the room high, coordinated all of the intermission photos/slow dances, etc. They were truly amazing and we recommend them without hesitation. In addition, the rest of the team (Ian, Stephanie and others) made this process so easy and enjoyable for us. They helped us with the decision to book CJ Band, contract Q/As, and everything else along the way. We cannot thank them enough!

y packed all night and they did not stop playing all night, playing a variety of genres from 70's classic rock (the Bruce being our favorite), 80's, Taylor Swift, hits from the 2000's and much much more, they covered everything which is what we wanted. If there is a specific genre or artist you really don't want at your wedding, they will also not play it. Thank you to Hank Lane and Spotlight for making this night unforgettable.

pier with that decision. I have always felt that after the venue, the music is the most important thing at a wedding, because the band can make or break an event. We wanted a band that would make everyone want to dance the night away, and that is exactly what we got. We expected the band to be amazing… almost everyone I know has used a Hank Lane band for their wedding and they’re always great… But Pete and his team were so far above and beyond amazing that I know that this review won’t do them justice. When I say that many MANY people at the wedding told me that Pete and his band were better than the original artists who sang the songs, I am not exaggerating. We had a 10 piece band because I wanted a full horn section, and it was easily the best decision we made for the wedding. Pete and Stephanie worked with us to make sure that all the songs we wanted got played, and the band even learned some additional renditions of classic songs to play at our cocktail hour and reception. No one wanted the night to end, and that was in large part because of Pete and his band. Everyone in the band was fantastic, and what was even better, was that since everyone in the band has amazing vocal capabilities, we had way more than 3 vocalists. I give Pete and his team the highest recommendation, and if they’re available for your event, do yourself a favor and book them immediately… you will not be disappointed!

ages and tastes. Pete and his assistant, Stephanie, did not "miss a beat." Not only did they address every concern and question but they anticipated what we needed and then some. My main concern for any party is the music. It will make or break your event. Pete worked with me on very specific requests since it was a Jewish wedding with a tish and a bedeken. We planned all the music together for that as well as the Hebrew music processional. We added an Israeli specialist who Pete works with to produce a spectacular "simcha dance" and the tone was set for the rest of the evening. In addition, I wanted an authentic Latin singer and Pete had a great female vocalist. We had everything from the latest music to classics to merengues and salsa. Again, every age group was pleased and the energy was high and the dance floor always full. Naturally we did not want the night to end. It was the party of parties!!! If you want someone who really listens to what you need and works with you and your loved ones with respect and partnership, Pete is fantastic. HIs assistant, Stephanie, is an absolute gem and will always get back to you right away. The Pete Saunders band is a class operation.

mbers were friendly, fun, and talented. Cannot recommend them enough, do not hesitate to book them if you have the opportunity!

s truly packed the entire night and they played hit after hit. Hank Lane has been such a pleasure to work with and we could not have been happier with the music and vibe the band created. We are so, so appreciative!! Thank you thank you!!

band to play. And they certainly delivered! From the ceremony, to the cocktail hour, to the party, it could not have been better. The dance floor was rocking all night and the energy was unmatched. They even had us and our families up on the stage to end the night which was a great finishing touch. We could not have asked for a better band to play at our wedding! We highly recommend Jonny and the Brooklyn Sound for any wedding or special event.

nswered dozens of our questions. We’ve had 10+ people commenting on how amazing the band was / saying it was the BEST band they’ve heard at a wedding! They kept the party dancing all night!

ll Out Boy, Kygo, Purple Disco Machine, etc.), they CRUSHED them!! All of our guests kept coming up to us praising Spotlight and the dance floor was packed throughout the event. I can't recommend Spotlight enough.

ute joy to work with. Right from our initial correspondence, Jonny showed incredible attention to detail, ensuring that he had all the necessary information to tailor the music to our specific desires. His responsiveness and willingness to accommodate special requests, like our unique arrangement for 'Peanuts,' set him and his crew apart and made our day that much more personal and memorable. On the day of the wedding, the energy and positive vibes provided by Jonny and the crew were infectious. They perfectly captured the mood and atmosphere of the celebration, and we could not have been happier with the way they seamlessly executed all the musical elements, from the reception to the ceremony. Special kudos to Jonny for being so accommodating with our musical performance – his excitement and support made our special moment on the guitar and piano truly unforgettable! We cannot thank Jonny Hirsch and the Brooklyn Sound crew enough for the role they played in making our wedding day so exceptional. They come highly recommended for anyone planning an event who desires not only professional, high-quality musicians but also wonderful people to work with. Their performance was genuinely praised by everyone present, and we are sure their music will continue to be raved about for a long time to come. Thank you, Jonny and team, for your fantastic contribution to our special day! Best, Will & Maddie

eople started chanting “one more song!” Multiple of our guests said they were the best wedding band they’d ever heard. Artie went above and beyond to make sure our ceremony and reception ran seamlessly, and his attention to detail was extraordinary. He also learned a song my husband wanted to play along with the band at the reception, which was a really special moment we will never forget. We really can’t thank Artie and the band enough!

d we are still getting mentions of them months after! We had some concerns about logistics, setup, etc going into it however with our pre-wedding zoom with Frank, it alleviated all our concerns. We went through the type of music we were into, the vibe we were looking, and what songs we don't want to be played. Which they delivered to a tee. They even quickly performed our first dance song during cocktail hour to make sure it was to our liking. If you're looking for a band that will keep the dance floor packed all night, look no further than the Frank Simmons band. They are true professionals and money well spent.

ight so fun for us. The musicians were some of the best I’ve ever seen. We originally were going to hire a DJ and I am so thankful we went with Elektra instead. Worth every penny!

t. And once we chose our band, Luxe, working with Frank from the band was also a delight. He took the time so speak with us multiple times to make sure the timing and setlist was tight and what we wanted, and was always friendly and energetic on the phone. They additionally were totally fine to work in some more obscure song choices, and gave great advice on what songs would or would not work for the setting. Then the night of the reception came, and my already high expectations were blown out of the water. Hands down the best wedding band I have ever seen by orders of magnitude. The dancefloor filled up to capacity within minutes of the band starting, and the energy only got higher the longer they played. The only time people got off the dancefloor was when the band stopped playing and told us all to go eat. Every person we spoke to after our wedding raved about the band, they were truly incredible. We cannot recommend Hank Lane / Luxe enough - 10/10 experience.
