About this vendor
The Midnight Piano Band is all about the live, musical performance. They are a throwback to when bands actually played their instruments and sang on stage. It seems hard to believe, but a band with this level of commitment to live sound is becoming quite rare. In the Midnight Piano Band, there are no laptops, no backing tracks, no tricks, and no gimmicks. What you see is what you hear, and what you hear is awesome. The band loves playing classic piano rock hits from the 70s and 80s by artists such as Elton John, Billy Joel, Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, Journey, and Bill Withers. The band also plays a variety of other hits that you know and love by artists like Earth Wind & Fire, Hall & Oates, Rihanna, R. Kelly, Justin Timberlake, Frankie Valli & the Four Seasons, Garth Brooks, and more!

THE BEST! We went to another wedding with the band and had a blast, so booked them from our own and they did not disappoint! The dance floor was packed the whole night, and multiple people messaged us to ask who the band was because they were so great!! Perfect for both "young" and "older" people to dance to. Awesome music selection. Would choose again in a heart beat!!
We got so many compliments on how amazing our band was! It really ups the entire evening. The singers were fabulous. Cannot recommend enough.
We absolutely LOVE Midnight Piano Band. They played at our wedding reception a couple weeks ago and the dance floor was PACKED the entire night. That was so important to my (now) husband and I — we wanted people to have a blast and dance the night away. Midnight Piano Band made that possible! Huge thank you to MPB - you were fantastic and made the reception a HUGE hit!
I. Love. This. Band. When I heard Midnight Piano Band perform at Parties in the Park, I knew they would be perfect. After we booked them, we even went to see them again at Jungle Boogie at the St. Louis Zoo before our big day. They crushed it at the reception, and our friends and family are still telling us how great they were. Everyone was dancing all night, even Grandpa! They were a major highlight from our big day, and we're planning to keep tabs on when and where they're playing next for date nights.
If you are looking for a band to keep everyone on their feet, this is your band! Honestly, I had never seen them in person because of schedules and things but watched YouTube videos and talked with them about what we wanted. We had a tent wedding reception at my family’s farm so I was not even sure they would be able to do it. However, they were extremely easy to work with and very professional! They worked to include every detail we wanted for our reception and called to confirm everything the week before the wedding. Our guests are still talking about the band and how great they were. The dance floor was full the entire night!
This band is amazing! They made our night so special and so many people complimented how amazing the band was. Their song selection was incredible and kept everyone dancing throughout the night. Towards the end of the night, they made sure to honor some requests from guests and I definitely think it made those guests’ nights! I love having this band be a part of our day and we would 100% make the decision to have them as our band again. If anyone is stuck between the choice of a DJ and or a band, pick a band, and pick Midnight Piano Band at that!
Midnight Piano Band was an amazing choice for our wedding this past May. We have received so many compliments from our guests, and our guests were up dancing the entire night. They blew us away!! Many thanks!!!
Hire the Midnight Piano Band as soon as you set your wedding date...before you book your venue! They recently performed at my daughters 12/15/18 wedding reception at The Statler Ballroom and they were outstanding.. Unbelievable vocals and musicians..
Call Gretchen at Contemporary she was extremely organized and responsive to any and all of our questions.
We decided on MPB after watching/listening to several experienced wedding bands. What sold us was the raw talent of the band, and specifically, the lead singer, Lucas. The entire process from inquiring about the band to signing the contract to our wedding day was a very pleasant experience. Shout out to Gretchen w/ Contemporary Productions for going above and beyond to help us with a custom playlist we needed for the reception but weren't sure how to pull together. I really appreciated that extra help!! The wedding night was an absolute blast, largely in part to the amazing performance by the band!! Most of the guests we spoke to after the wedding commented on how much they loved them! I also thought the band was reasonably priced (especially for their talent) and they offered packages to accommodate your budget. If I had another reason to hire a band down the road they would be my first call! Thanks to MPB for making our wedding so fun and so memorable! Lauren & Brian 10-5-18
If you are looking for a band to play at your wedding look no further. The Midnight Piano Band is absolutely phenomenal! From the very beginning of our wedding planning process the band and their management company (Contemporary Productions) were professional, honest, and a pleasure to work with. Email communication was very timely and professional. The band was on-time to our reception and their setup and take down were very quick. The band leader (Lucas) put in extra effort to learn our first dance song and he absolutely nailed it! We actually liked his version better than the recording by the original artist. The rest of their song selection perfectly suited our wedding as they played to our crowd very well. I'm not exaggerating when I say that our guests raved about the band for the rest of the week. I truly cannot say enough great things about these guys. If you are nervous about booking a band without hearing them live (as we were), simply have a look/listen to their YouTube videos. They are a great representation of the skill and talent of the group. What we saw and heard in those videos is what we got at our wedding. They've absolutely earned their 5 star rating.
worth every penny! unique, fun, and just awesome. they learned a slow piano cover of Katy Perry’s Firework just for us and it was phenomenal! these guys (& gal) are so stinkin talented. the dance floor stayed packed, and it wasnt just the typical cheesy cliche wedding music. they played til the very end of the night- and a great finale! a thousand thumbs up
The Midnight Piano Band exceeded our expectations at our wedding! We gave them a brief list of must-plays for the band and song ideas for the DJ and they ran with it; we barely had to do any work! They were flexible and allowed for me to add a dance with my grandfather which was very meaningful to us. EVERYONE commented on how great they sounded and their songs suited all ages (they weren't overplayed radio songs of today but a great variety of classics/moderns like Billy Joel, Elton John, Queen, Coldplay, and Dave Matthews--and they play so much more). I even remember enjoying their music during dinner and I can't typically recall much of the dinner music played at most weddings. The dance floor was crowded the entire night; so much so that they didn't want to take a break! They were such a hit and one of our best vendor decisions. THANK YOU Midnight Piano Band!
Midnight Piano Band did an amazing job at our wedding - we could not be happier with our decision to have the band as our entertainment. I cannot express how many people raved about the band the night of and into the next week - I had people texting me on my honeymoon asking me the name of our band and telling me how much they loved the music! The band had everyone dancing from start to finish and was so professional, fun, and engaging. We had a wide range of ages at our wedding and everyone (of all ages) raved about the band and were dancing all night. The band was also extremely accommodating with how we wanted to handle first dance songs, first speeches, cake cutting songs, etc. The band was so organized leading up to the wedding and our direct contact, Gretchen, was a HUGE help in our preparation. She was so detail oriented and extremely responsive via phone and email. She did whatever she could to make sure everything was how we wanted it so the night would go perfectly - which it did. Again, we could not be happier with our decision and would recommend Midnight Piano Band to everyone needing a band for any type of event - I honestly cannot say enough good things!
MPB did an excellent job at our wedding. They kept the crowd engaged and dancing all night. I would highly recommend.
My husband and I had heard great things about this band - they played at a party where people of all ages were up dancing. We went to hear them and thought they were perfect for our wedding. And they were! Everyone had so much fun dancing to their music - so many people commented to me about how great the band was. They were a true crowd pleaser and helped to make our wedding reception so much fun. Thank you so much Midnight Piano Band!
MPB is a must-book band with incredible crowd appeal. They are high-energy, talented musicians. No cheese. Their music range is broad -- love the classics from Elton John and Billy Joel and some modern tunes. They even learned some difficult songs upon our request and knocked it out of the park -- it felt so customized, as though we had been close friends with Lucas and MPB for years. They bring a fresh take to beloved songs and really organically took to our wedding reception crowd's energy. We would book again in a heartbeat, and hopefully we will throw a proper party again soon that we can.
The Midnight Piano Band is a must have at your upcoming wedding! From the beginning of our relationship and conversations with the band they have always been open, honest and very communicative. These traits are hard to find today and we could not have been more pleased to have had them part of our big day!
We were presented with an incredible list of songs that we easily narrowed down to 2 phenomenal sets that had our guests dancing throughout the night. If you’re looking for classic Billy Joel or Elton John to today’s hit music (or anything in between), The Midnight Piano Band will be sure to put their special touch on it! Our guests continue to remark how great the music was and wished the night would never end!
What I want to convey most in this review about the Midnight Piano Band is their commitment to professionalism and their compassion. Beyond their obvious musical talents, incredible voice and performing skills, they always had our best interests in mind that provided us with a level of comfort during a demanding time.
Planning a wedding can and will be stressful, but with The Midnight Piano Band by your side you can trust they will go the extra mile to make your special day the most memorable! We couldn’t be happier to have chosen the Midnight Piano Band to play at our wedding and you will be too.
