Pearse Abbey performed at a wedding I attended. The band was amazing, they played a mixture of songs that kept everyone out on the dance floor. The musicians were professional, fun, and kept everyone engaged. 10/10 would recommend!

A few months back, I attended Claire and Aaron’s wedding where Pearse Abbey performed at the reception. As a guest, I had a great time seeing everyone dance and have fun on the dance floor. There were also some songs sung in the bride’s native language, but that didn’t stop the guests from joining in the fun. Toward the end of the night, some guests requested a few songs and even played with the band, which everyone enjoyed. It was truly a night to remember. Kudos to Pearse Abbey!

One of DMV’s underrated artists. If you need great entertainment for your special occasion, Pearse Abbey is your band. Ara (the lead singer) has a beautiful, powerful voice and has a way of connecting with the crowd in a way that feels genuine. Patch (the keyboardist) has an incredible sense of timing and rhythm on the keyboard. Every single one of them is talented, but the way they blend together is what makes Pearse Abbey’s music truly special. If you have time, go listen to their original songs on Spotify and you’ll know what I mean. You guys never fail to impress, and I’m so grateful to know such talented musicians.

Had the privilege to hear them during a wedding reception for the first time and all I can say is pure talent! The audience kept on requesting for more as they couldn’t get enough of the songs that they were playing and they were kind enough to grant such requests. Indeed, one of the best Filipino bands I’ve ever heard.

This band made our wedding unforgettable! They have an impressive range of songs across multiple genres and were incredibly flexible—even learning new songs by request. Our first dance was especially beautiful as they performed Make You Feel My Love by Adele. They truly brought the party to life and made every moment feel special. Not only are they talented musicians, but they were also easy to communicate with and had a top-notch sound system. Each band member was friendly and exceptionally skilled. I highly recommend this band for any event—you won’t be disappointed!

Highly recommended! Pearse Abbey band turned the place upside down. From soft music to party mode, everybody's grooving. You knew how to convert introverts to dance as if no one's looking. Very interactive, you made the event lively and people were just having a good time.
