These guys put on a phenomenal live show! Our venue said its the best live music they've had on the property in years, and had already added Parlour Noir to their recommended vendor list by the time we left. The band was communicative and flexi...

ble throughout the planning and booking process. They were so friendly, and our guests enjoyed chatting with them between sets. We will be seeking out another opportunity to see them play as soon as we can!

Band was Dynamite!!! My (now) wife & I hired the band for our wedding this past weekend (3 piece setup) and the band was Amazing! We had them play the ceremony & cocktail hour, which everyone raved about! Each of the band members truly put on...

a show that kept the guests engaged, dancing, and simply soaking in the ambiance. Finally, they were easy to communicate with, and connected with the coordinator relieving us of a little less stress. Overall Dynamite experience!!!

A truly amazing, fun, and talented group of gentlemen who play wonderful music! We would book the band again in a heartbeat. They're so easy to work with and definitely love what they do! We had an awesome time having them play our wedding and ...

really enjoyed how they got involved with the guests. A few family members got a chance to talk with them and we got nothing but complements from our guests. They're prompt, courteous, and super helpful with communication, and we also had a blast taking a swing dancing lesson with Paul a few weeks before the wedding. We ended up having a few last minute changes and requests that they were able to accommodate for us which we really appreciated. Couldn't have asked for a better group to play our wedding. Parlour Noir made the night so much more special as their music filled the space. Their play style fit our vision perfectly. We really can't say enough about them. Highly recommend this group!

Any questions?

Parlour Noir absolutely elevated our wedding with performance and energy. Our guests still reminisce how great the band was months later, and we can't agree more. They were fantastic!

We loved every note of music. The swing tunes were the perfect match for our evening, playing off of the day's spontaneous joy. Parlor Noir added a wonderful, classy element to our dancing and couldn't be easier to work with. 5 stars!!!

We just booked Parlous Noir for our October 2022 wedding (so I can't yet speak to their performance, though my fiance and I went to see them play live over the weekend and they were every bit as entertaining and energizing as their videos show!...

). I decided to write a review now because I am just astounded at how professional, responsive, and flexible Adam has been through the whole process of figuring out what we want to do. He and Paul (clarinet) seem genuinely excited to figure out how to make our wedding a really creative and memorable event!! I can't recommend them highly enough- so easy to work with, and SO TALENTED!! They can literally play anything.
