Well…where do we begin. We hired Night Shift Band to perform at our wedding in October and they did not disappoint. From the minute we booked the band - Karen and Co. were top notch; very informative and responsive.
The band was incredible. Our guests were blown away with their talent. We attended a fundraiser recently and people who were at the wedding kept coming up to us and telling us how much fun and how great the band was at our wedding. Highly recommend for future brides and grooms!

We hired the band Night Shift for our wedding and they were INCREDIBLE! The energy, quality of vocals, performance, and entire vibe was exactly what we were looking for. The band interacted with our guests, came out onto the dance floor, gave guests the mic, and truly had everyone dancing the entire night.- NOBODY wanted them to stop! We could not recommend them enough- so many people asked us for the name of our band!

We hired SOHO from Night Shift Entertainment for our wedding at Wychmere. This band can truly do it all. Their pre-ceremony and ceremony music were beautiful and really set the scene for our event. The cocktail and dinner music was upbeat and entertaining. They really showed their stuff on the dance floor. They seemed to know exactly what songs our guests would love and they joined us on the dance floor throughout. I’ve never seen some of my friends dance like that! We would absolutely hire them again for another event.

We booked the Night Shift band (from Night Shift Entertainment) and couldn’t be happier with our decision.
Based on reviews and word-of-mouth, we already had high expectations, but Night Shift exceeded them in EVERY way!
Our guests raved about them throughout the night and still tell us they were the BEST wedding band they've ever seen!!!
The energy and entertainment they brought were absolutely incredible, and their music had everyone (and I mean everyone, of all ages!) on the dance floor. They truly helped us create the wedding of our dreams.
Kasie, who we coordinated with, was exceptionally organized and ensured every detail was handled perfectly. She helped us with our requests, and Night Shift executed everything flawlessly.
While many elements contribute to a great wedding, having an unmatched band was our top priority, and thanks to Night Shift, we achieved that! I wholeheartedly recommend hiring them as your band—you won't be disappointed.

There are truly not enough good words I can say about Night Shift. From our first conversation, to meeting our account manager Kasie, all the way to the day of, all communication was professional but also genuine.
We had Night Shift manage our ceremony music, band and DJ and each component was excellent. But I honestly can't say enough about Hudson, our band. Guests were coming up to us all night gushing over them. They played each of our custom songs beautifully and kept the vibes on the dance floor electric all night long. If you're even debating having a live band at your wedding, don't hesitate. It is worth every penny to have the most amazing night of your life.

Night Shift Entertainment, specifically the High Line Band, truly made our wedding reception a night to remember. Not only were they extremely talented, but they brought the best energy and made the night so much fun. We got SO many compliments about how amazing the band was, and they were truly the highlight of our wedding. Can't recommend them enough!

We had our wedding last weekend in Newport, RI. Truthfully, we hired High Line without having heard them in person and I was a bit nervous prior to my wedding day, not knowing how they were going to play. I will say, all of my fears quickly dissolved the second they started. They were interactive and fun and all of the songs they picked were great. Our guests continue to rave about how High Line were the best wedding band they have ever experienced. In reminiscing about the day, we discovered that not a single glass was dropped on the dance floor and determined it was likely because people were spending more time on the dancefloor than at the bar. We could not have been happier with our experience and we would certainly recommend them to anyone needing live music.

We couldn't have asked for a better band to play at our wedding! They were absolutely incredible, and both of the singers had phenomenal voices that left our guests in awe. Their ability to read the room and choose the perfect songs to keep everyone on the dance floor was spot on. Even weeks after the event, our guests are still raving about how fantastic the band was. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a top-notch band to make their special day unforgettable!

We had the pleasure of having Night Shift perform at our daughter’s wedding last weekend, and they absolutely blew us away!
From the moment they started playing, their energy was electric. Their fabulous playlist catered to all and set the perfect vibe for the celebration.
One of the highlights of the evening was when they played "Summer Lovin'" to cap off the maid of honor's toast. It was a delightful surprise that had everyone singing along.
A special shout-out goes to the incredibly talented saxophonist, who not only kicked off the party but also led the bride and groom on a memorable sendoff.
Night Shift’s musicianship was top-notch, and you could tell they were genuinely passionate about their craft. They provided an unforgettable musical experience that made our celebration truly special.
If you’re looking for a band that knows how to read the crowd and keep the dance floor packed, look no further than Night Shift! Highly recommended!

Highly recommend using Night Shift and hiring High Line Band for your wedding!! We were a little nervous having never seen the band perform in person, but they killed it and gave us the best dance party that we were looking for at our wedding. All the band members were great, but the lead singers had such high energy and amazing voices. During the wedding planning process, the band manager Kasie was so easy to work with! She walked through all the details with us and made sure all our questions were answered. She even helped us coordinate having a few of our groomsmen who are singers perform a song at the recepetion. The band will learn a few songs at your request and take into account your do not plays songs or genre recommendations, but they truly do work off the energy of the crowd instead of having a preselected set list. We also used Night Shift musicians for our ceremony and cocktail hour music which went great. I will say the lead female singer was different than the person in their video, but she was amazing.

We booked District 21 for our wedding after seeing them a few years back at a friends wedding and they absolutely exceeded our expectations. All of the musicians were so talented and friendly. They were accommodating of a guests requests to kick off the dance floor with a Bob Marley medley which really set the party off. Our guests danced the entire time! I highly recommend working with District 21/Nightshift if you want an amazing band that plays the best hits (old and new) and is extremely professional and enjoyable to work with.

We used Nightshift for our wedding band and got married at Wychmere on Cape Cod. I have a background in the events/wedding industry, and they are one of the top bands I have seen perform in the Boston Area. Kasie was such a helpful planner to work with and easily convinced my fiancé to hire a band! haha! Everyone still reaches out to me to say that was one of the best bands that they have ever seen, and the dance floor was always packed! Can't say enough good things about Nightshift Entertainment!

We used Soho for our wedding in March and it was the best decision we made. They were better than we could have ever imagined and everyone said they were the best band they've ever seen. All we wanted was an epic dance party, and they made it happen. On top of that, the whole process of working with Night Shift was so great. We cannot thank them enough and wish we could re-live the night all over again!

If you're looking for a wedding band - look no further than Nightshift!!! They were the most incredible wedding band and made our night unforgettable. Guests AND vendors were coming up to us all night saying it was the best wedding band they've ever seen. Their voices and instrument skills are next level. They are fun, exciting, interactive, and bring the best wedding energy. Going with Nightshift was the best decision we could have made for our wedding!!!

We had the band, Soho, from Nightshift entertainment at my daughter's wedding on October 21 in Newport and they blew the roof off the place! Nobody sat down while they were playing, the energy was off the charts and I knew from the first note played as the curtains were being opened for the reception, that we had chosen wisely. Everybody loved them. Outstanding in every way.

We had 143 guests at our wedding and every single one of them commented on how amazing the band was. Soho was incredible. They had the whole wedding on the dance floor the whole night and adapted their songs to match the mood. They came out onto the dance floor while performing and interacted with the crowd. We had a truly amazing time and couldn’t have been happier with them. They also learned a unique song for our first dance and sang happy birthday to one of our guest’s daughters who turned 5 that day. We also heard from some guests that the band was kind enough to entertain questions from one of our guests (age 12) during their breaks. We’d definitely hire them again!

If you are looking for the BEST wedding band look no further! We hired Soho after Night Shift Entertainment was recommended to us by friends. We had high expectations but they exceeded them. From the moment they began playing until the very end of the night they brought the magic - professional, talented and truly amazing. All of our guests are still raving about them. Thank you again for making our special day so incredible!

Night Shift was the very first vendor we booked after getting engaged because of all the amazing things we heard about them from friends and family. They DEFINITELY lived up to the hype! The amount of comments we got from our guests at and following the wedding was more than any other aspect of our wedding. Night Shift is the best of the best and we are SO grateful they were a part of our day and made it so fantastic!!!

Best Wedding Band Ever! We had a mixed crowd from little kids to grandparents in their 80's and the dance floor was packed all night. They were super interactive and even personalized some aspects for us with songs. The lead singers were fantastic! Their voices were spot on and personalities made everyone feel so comfortable. We had so many people tell us that the band made the night even our teenage kids said "best wedding music" they had ever heard. Kasie was so easy to work with and just made everything easy. If you want a fun party with little effort prior to, High Line is your band! Five Star Rating!!!

We used Night Shift for our wedding on August 6th. They were absolutely incredible. Karen and Kasie were fantastic to work with and made sure every detail was covered. The band learned our wedding song along with 2 other songs we requested and we were blown away. I have never seen a dance floor so packed. They really got everyone engaged and having fun. So many of our guests have reached out to us and commented on how incredible the band was. We would highly recommend Night Shift.

We recently had Night Shift at our wedding and they were absolutely amazing!!! I’ve never seen a dance floor so packed at a wedding. They got the crowd involved the ENTIRE time and all ages were on the dance floor until the very last song. We were so sad when it was over! We gave them very little direction and it was perfection - from cocktail hour, to introductions, dinner music, and dancing.
We had multiple guests declare it the “best wedding ever” due to the band… and many friends looking to hire Night Shift for their weddings.
Highly highly recommend!!

Thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the band Night Shift during our sons recent wedding reception. When the night was over, close to 200 people cheered for more. From the minute they started until they finished NightShift sang both new music we had asked them to learn, younger crowd songs as well and old favorites. Professionalism and great stage presence throughout. Energy fed energy fed energy. They. Were. Awesome! Wish we had another wedding planned..no doubt they would be there!!

Hiring Soho band was the best decision we made. The band’s sound is spectacular. The group is engaged, highly energetic and knows how to read the room. Almost every guest danced the entire time.

The best decision we made for our wedding reception was getting High Line to play!
When we were selecting bands, we immediately fell in love with High Line’s style from their music video. We were looking for a party with an energetic dance floor, and they knew how to deliver! Their song selection was on point, always keeping our guests engaged with the appropriate energy level and perfectly reading the vibe. They even threw in a few delightfully unexpected mashups, that several guests brought up at brunch the next day as the highlight of the night.
The energy they played with was unreal. They were often out on the dance floor, singing and dancing with us and our guests, and just having a blast playing. Their musicianship was also off the charts- not only were they talented players who excelled in their craft, but they gelled really well as a band with smooth transitions.
We cannot recommend High Line enough. They made our reception so fun, perfectly reading the vibe of the crowd; and their infectious energy kept our dance floor on fire all night.

Night Shift absolutely MADE our reception! Our dance floor was packed all night, and every single guest from kiddos to grandparents were out on the floor. They were so dynamic and were able to cater to the energy of the crowd that it was a nonstop party. I am biased to say it was the best party I’ve ever been to, but it truly was. We could not have made a better choice for our wedding day, we HIGHLY recommend!!

They had our guests dancing from the moment the bridal party was introduced into the reception room. The male and female singer duo had the room rocking the entire evening. Guests are still talking about how amazing the music was! Plus, they loved how much the band and singers interacted with the crowd. They did a great job emceeing and keeping to the flow of events.

We hired the High Line Band from NSE and they were amazing! We were married this past October and our guests are still raving about how great the band was.
Leading up to the wedding I was nervous that people might not dance and have a good time. High Line kept the dance floor packed from start to finish! Some guests didn't even sit down to eat their meal.
We had a choreographed first dance and High Line nailed the timing of our song (which they had to learn)!
We absolutely loved the band and Kasie from NSE was incredible to work with. She was more than happy to help us with the timeline of the wedding, as she mentioned that she was a wedding planner for a number of years before working for NSE. Kasie was amazing to work with and she was so happy to help with all of our needs.
What an amazing experience! Thank you High Line, NSE, and Kasey!!
Amazing performance!

Hands down the best night of our life. We hired Nightshift for our wedding and they were remarkable. The band interacted with the crowd all night and the energy never stopped! The dance floor was packed all night. I wish I knew every single person name because I would give ever single member a shout out. Every single band member was FANTASTIC. Everyone has called or texted us asking for the name of our band at our wedding. You all TRULY out did yourselves. Karen and Kasie- you were both so wonderful to work with as well. You both were so organized, calm and friendly. This was the best night of our life and one that we will never forget. Thank you for making our wedding dreams come true. Let’s do it again next weekend.

Booking Hudson for our wedding at the Rosecliff in Newport was the best choice we made! They are incredibly talented musicians and performers and truly knew how to keep every guest at our wedding on the dance floor.
Our wedding was over a year ago (sorry for the late review) and everyone is still talking about Hudson. We truly could not have imagined just how amazing they would be.
Beyond the band's performance that night, I also have to express my extreme gratitude for their GM, Karen. We had a long history of date changes and postponements and she was an absolute pleasure to work with every step of the way. She truly cared about doing everything she possibly could to make our day the one we had dreamed of, spending hours with us on the phone for much-needed guidance and assurances.

We booked SoHo for our wedding and they were one of the best decisions for our big day. They engaged with the crowd, have such amazing talent and were such an entertainment! Their personalities too were incredible! We asked them to do a new song for our first dance and they verified with us beforehand that the tempo was correct and that it was what we wanted! Overall, such a great decision and worth every single penny!

Simply the best.
I had one ask for my band: make it a concert, and man, did Night Shift deliver. They were absolutely incredible. They played hit after hit, wow'ed my guests with their incredible talents, but most importantly, HAD FUN DOING IT!!! From my 20-year old cousins, to my guests in their 80s, something for everyone was played and the dancing NEVER STOPPED.
My guests have not stopped talking about how incredible the band was, and I don't think that there ever has been a wedding where the bride, mother of the groom and best man were on stage head banging to Nirvana, but Night Shift made it happen for us and I will be forever grateful that our wedding day was even more magical because of their incredible talents, personalities, and care.
I mean, there was crowd surfing. How much more fun can you have?!
Also, shout out to the managing behind the band as well. Customer service was excellent and clear communication and pure excitement for my big day was so appreciated. Katie and Karen made me feel heard and ready to go!
thank you NIGHT SHIFT for making my wedding everything I could have asked for any more. See you at my five year vow renewal ;)!

Hudson band did an absolutely amazing job at my NYE wedding. They were so professional and kept the dance floor full all night! They played the few requests we asked for and the rest of the night they kept a good mix of songs that everyone could relate to. Our guests were all impressed and gave the band many compliments. We switched over to a DJ at midnight for the after party and there was a little technical error so one of the leads ended up doing a acoustic solo, which was so amazing. The whole crowd was chanting one more song once they were done! Kasie and Karen at night shift are great to work with and handle every detail!

Hudson performed at our wedding in September and they were AMAZING. Our guests had so much fun and are still raving about how incredible the band was. They played a great mix of older and current songs and kept the party going all night long. Karen was also amazing to work with on the admin side. We had some special requests (example: my husband performed a song with the band at one point) and Karen made sure it all went as planned. She was responsive, detailed, and organized throughout. If you are looking for a party band - book with Night Shift - you won't regret it! We're SO glad we did.

The band was astounding and we can only hope that one day we are attending another wedding of theirs because we just want to keep listening to them!

District 21 was the absolute highlight of my wedding! They were UNBELIEVABLE and I truly cannot express how amazing they were. They were engaging, soooo talented, and really made the effort to connect with myself and my husband. Kasie was also AMAZING to work with. She was so calm and helpful throughout our whole wedding process. We got married on Martha's Vineyard which makes logistics hard for the vendors and she made everything a breeze. This band was worth every.single.penny.

Words can not express how impressed everyone was with HighLine this past weekend at my daughter's wedding. I've worked with Karen and NightShift many times over the years. I knew when my daughter was going to get married that we would hire them. Karen suggested for my daughter and her fiance to take a look at some of their bands. They selected HighLine. Vince and Mia were amazing!!! The entire band was incredible! From the moment they started playing they had everyone engaged. They were the ones that made their wedding so spectacular! Live music is the best, but when you have two leads like Vince and Mia you have won the lottery! My daughter and her husband were beyond happy with them. They made the evening unforgettable!! Karen, you and your team are the best!! Continued success to all of you! Thank you again for making thier wedding one to remember!!!

District 21 band was amazing. As soon as we walked into the reception they started the party. When my daughter and son-in-law came in the dancing started and never stopped. Kristin and David were great. Highly recommend them and Night Shift. They worked with us through Covid and were great.

Night shift was amazing to work with - Karen got on the phone with us multiple times to both decide on which band to go with and to help us plan the band's role in our wedding. Karen was also so helpful and flexible to work with in COVID with multiple date changes. The band ended up doing our rehearsal dinner + welcome party and they were awesome - set the perfect vibe, met with us beforehand to make sure we were aligned on the plan, and were great at engaging the guests and playing the perfect music to enhance our celebrations. Would highly recommend them!

Our band High Line was absolutely fantastic. They certainly exceeded all our expectations, we couldn’t have asked for more. The energy they provided was phenomenal, and literally the dance floor was crowded from the minute the music started. I can’t tell you how many compliments we received from our guests about the band. We had to change dates 3 times due to the pandemic. Karen and her team were very patient and flexible with us and it all worked out seamlessly. Night Shift is truly a professional organization.

WOW! I don't even know where to start. My wife and I got married in Newport, just as Hurricane Henri was about to make landfall in August 2021. Karen and the team didn't bat an eye at what as an extremely stressful day filled with a ton of "unknowns".
From the moment the reception started, until the the last song, guests didn't leave the dance floor once. I saw people dancing that I've never seen dance in my life! Hudson isn't your ordinary "wedding band", this is a group of extremely talented professionals that ANYONE would be extremely luck to have perform a their wedding/event. If you are going to invest money anywhere when planning a wedding, trust me, spend it on the entertainment! People don't want to hear a DJ hit play on their wedding playlist from 2011.
Karen and the entire Hudson team are the best in the business period. If you are on the East Coast, stop wasting time looking for a band for your next event. Hudson will have your guests lined up after the party asking for business cards to perform at their next event. I can honestly say, now that our wedding is over, I am looking for reasons to host another event, just so I can experience Hudson bring down the house once again.
Thank you Karen - Thank you Hudson!

Have you ever been to a wedding where the dance floor is packed on the first, second, third, and fourth song ~ before the first course is served? I have not. Have you ever been to a wedding where a packed dance floor is chanting “one more song, one more song” on the last song of the night? I have not. I can’t even count how many guests went up to the band to thank them when the reception was over. Look, there are a lot of great bands out there, but do they fill your spirit, lift you out of your chair and compel you to dance? I think not. District 21 did all of those things and more. From the youngest guest to the oldest guest, they are a guaranteed crowd-pleaser. No matter how great the venue, flowers, food, lighting ~ it’s the band that makes the night. Love, love, love District 21.

Holy moly. There are no words for District 21. Our number one priority/budget allocation for the wedding was the band and packed dance floor and we got what we wanted, and more. So many people told us afterwards that it was the most fun wedding they'd been to and that our band was the best wedding band they'd seen! Two people have already reached out to book them for their 2022 weddings. So fun, so wonderful to work with, and I would book them a million times over.

District 21 was an incredible band. The quality and sound were out of this world. They were energetic, talented and a lot of fun. They got my entire wedding going and played all the current music we requested. They even crushed an Adele song for our slow dance. Were are from NYC and so many guests called me after the wedding to rave about them. Honestly one of the best wedding bands I've ever heard ... and we've seen a lot. Couldn't be happier I chose them for our special day. Their president Karen was also a pleasure to work with in the hiring process. She was able to execute exactly what we needed in a quick and professional matter. Very fairly priced for the quality of this band. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for a band in Boston, RI, CT or NY.

I cannot say enough good things about Nightshift entertainment and the band High Line. They performed at my daughter's wedding under a tent at our home. From start to finish, the process was easy and the music was truly outstanding. There are two things that make a wedding: bar and band. This group read the crowd, got everyone up and out of their seats and provided a great time. Plus, they were unbelievably talented. A guest said "This is not a wedding band- it's a real band of talented musicians that I'd pay to see on tour." I agree.

Nightshift worked with us to completely reschedule our wedding due to COVID - when the date finally came they were a major high point for our event. Their band District 21 was energetic, engaging, and kept the entire age range of our wedding up and moving the entire time. Aside from the performance the communication was great, and everyone was super professional and on-time. Definitely recommend!

My husband and I were incredibly impressed with Night Shift / District 21. Night Shift was recommended to us by a friend and we were immediately blown away by their videos. The band's manager, Karen, was such a joy to work with as we planned for our wedding day. She is extremely professional, responsive, straightforward and friendly. Working with Karen, we had complete trust that District 21 would be a highlight of our wedding.
Thanks to the band, our wedding was the biggest dance party. They were amazing at reading the crowd and pleased all music tastes. So many of our friends and family came up to us during our wedding to say how incredible the band was. Everyone is still talking about them months later. We would recommend them again and again.

Night Shift Entertainment made for an unforgettable wedding reception! After undergoing several changes throughout the pandemic, Karen at Night Shift was very helpful and accommodating. Soho was amazing! Their talent is out of this world. They made for a fun, comfortable and safe dancing environment. Our guests have raved about the band ever since. I would definitely recommend Soho for your wedding!

Both my husband and I agree that Night Shift was (hands down) the BEST part of our wedding. They had absolutely EVERYONE from our 14-year-old niece to my 93-year-old Italian grandmother (who doesn't speak English and can barely even walk) on the dance floor all night long! Their energy was clearly contagious and are 100% responsible for making our party the BLAST that it was! As a professional wedding planner who has worked in the Boston market for over 10 years, I knew the moment I got engaged that Night Shift Entertainment HAD to be at my wedding and boy was I right! I have worked with this company (and all of their bands) many times and in each experience, they've shown the highest level of professionalism & talent (both during the planning process and the night of). I could not recommend this business enough and am truly excited for you (and your guests) to experience them for yourselves! Night Shift Entertainment IS the party you are looking for!

Make your event unforgettable, hire the best!
If you have the opportunity to hire Night Shift.... DO IT! Your wedding will be a truly unforgettable party that people will never forget. I got married at the Boston Harbor Hotel in November 2019 and Night Shift was the first vendor we hired. Words truly cannot express how incredible Night Shift was at our wedding. Never in my life have I seen a room come more alive than that evening. The energy so high and electric until 2am. We had 224 guests at our wedding and when I say the ENTIRE DANCE FLOOR was packed to the brim dancing to Night Shift, I truly mean the entire dance floor. From 23 year old guests to 85 year old guests, everyone was dancing all night. I cannot even count the number of compliments we received from our guests of all ages, from all places, who could not stop raving for months (and to this day) about how incredibly the band was. Often noteD as the best band they've ever seen.
Night Shift also performs an out of this world Hava Negila/Horah sung IN HEBREW!
Karen was a true pleasure to work with. We left the set list completely up to band and everyone raved about the songs played... The classics and MoTown mix was a HUGE HIT among the entire crowd.. It couldn't have been better.
People were singing, hootering, hollering, engaging with the band/mic, breaking into dance circles. It was out of this world. The energy stayed high and the room packed until 2am.
Many, many, many guests (our aged to our parents' and grandparents' friends) raved about Night Shift being the best band they've ever seen. We've heard this over and over and over (still do). One of my favorites was my father in law's 75 year old friend coming over to us at breakfast the next morning "It's been decades since I've danced like that or stayed up that late!"
Hiring Night Shift was the best decision we made in our wedding planning process. Thank you Karen for being so easy and incredibly to work with and for making our wedding the biggest hit.

When we were forced to postpone our wedding due to Covid-19, Karen and the rest of the team at Night Shift had our backs every step of the way. They were flexible with their dates, helped us figure out how to transition everything, and worked to make sure the band we had would still be available on our new date. I can tell you not ever vendor has been this flexible or kind, but in the worst of times, Night Shift has shown how much they care about the couples they work with.
Honestly, I can not give a higher recommendation to the Night Shift team. They are talented, and as we've seen as previous weddings we have attended where they played, get the party going and keep it rolling all night long. But most importantly, they had our backs when we needed them and that is why when you are looking for a band, your search should start, and end, with Night Shift.
