Michigans Best Special Event Band

We hired Mac Daddy Band for our wedding at Castle Farms on July 22nd, 2018. I was nervous because I had not personally heard them play live, but the reviews were great, the on line demos sound great and the reviews from local vendors were also positive and highly recommended. I will tell you they exceeded all of my expectations as well as our guests expectations. They have two singers, one male and one female and they have truly amazing vocals. They have an incredible sound system so the music itself has a great sound. On top of that, the vocals are so so strong that everyone kept looking to see if they were piping in the actual artists. They were not, they were live all the way. You have to trust Nathan who manages the band when he tells you that they read the crowd to understand what to play next and that their play list is vast and well executed. You will not need to give them a script, they are 100% professionals and their goal is to make sure that you have a really great experience. If you want live music from a band who will pack the dance floor and can offer a wide variety of music from their play list, this is the band for you. There is nothing like live music that can soothe your soul and bring people together. Thank you Mac Daddy for providing a great musical and dance experience for our guests. I'm still getting texts and calls from our guests a week later on how much they enjoyed your band.

These guys are the absolute best. They are incredibly talented, played for almost 6 hours for us with limited breaks, and absolutely brought the noise. They packed our dance floor and everyone had absolutely the best time. They let the bride and groom, and the mother of the bride, on stage at the end of the night to sing along and play the tamborine, and ended up playing an extra 20 minutes after their end time because everyone was having so much fun. Cannot recommend them highly enough!!

MAC DADDY is simply amazing! They played for our wedding on Saturday and I can't say enough how awesome they are. Our venue's air conditioning wasn't working, and it was the hottest day of the year, but the band was phenomenal and still had a crazy amount of energy. Even though everyone was hot and sweating like crazy, the dance floor was packed. They did a great job of incorporating new music and old favorites. The talent of this group is unbelievable! All of our guests said Mac Daddy was the best band ever and that it made our wedding one of the most fun they had attended. I can't recommend them enough. They are worth every penny and were the highlight of our night! I was hoping they would sound as good as their recordings online, since I wasn't able to hear them live before the wedding, but they are even better in person. They appealed to all of our guests, no matter the age. Book this band!

Unfortunately, I have more negative things to report than positive, but I believe in giving credit where credit is due, so I'm offering both the pros and cons from my experience... PROS: They were very lively with good stage presence and were interactive with my guests, especially with my grandma which was cute and I appreciated. The music they played had most of my guests on the dance floor, most of the night. They are strong performers. CONS: 1.) Leading up to the wedding, their communication is bordering on non-existent. I had a signed contract and put a deposit down, so I don't think asking for a simple conversation was too much to ask. Two months before the wedding I reached out to have this basic and needed discussion about music to be played for first dances, timeline of the evening, names to be announced in the bridal party, speeches, etc. It took them FIVE WEEKS to get back to me (after I had left several voicemails and emails)-- very frustrating. There was a point I was nervous if they were even going to show up on the day-of. 2.) Once we did finally speak, they asked me to type out everyone's names in the bridal party, in order and phonetically so they would be able to pronounce them correctly, and so I did. On the day when announcing the bridal party, he completely skipped one of the groomsmen/bridesmaids, he repeated my sister-in-law twice (used her name for another girl too), and mispronounced OUR (being the bride and groom, being the paying customer) last name. He was reading the names from his phone and as if it was the first time he had ever looked at it. He had 3 weeks to review it and PRINT IT-- absolutely no excuse. 3.) My brother asked them to play a specific song for him and I to dance to, and they refused. He asked nicely again but they responded with they "aren't taking any requests." So he insisted by reminding them that we are paying them and they rudely, finally agreed. I don't think that reminder should have been necessary. Yes, they were engaging and played fun music. So, if this is all you care about then they will be a good fit for you. Being in the event industry myself, I require vendors to be exceptional from the first meeting until the end of the event. I don't feel their service provided outweighed the negative customer service, or complete lack thereof.
