My wife and I used Tony and his band for our wedding and absolutely loved it.
Tony was there every step of the way to prepare the music for our wedding and worked with us to curate the musical experience. He is extremely responsive and professional, and overall, he is a super nice guy.
We danced the whole night as the band was amazing and got many compliments on how fun the night was because of the band.
I would highly recommend using Tony and his company for your event.
We cannot say enough amazing things about the Perrone Bros. and the Naked Soul Band! From the moment they started playing, they completely transformed our wedding into an unforgettable celebration. Our guests were absolutely blown away by how talented and energetic they were. In fact, people kept asking, “Where did you find this band?!” — that’s how much they stood out!
The band did an incredible job keeping the energy up and the dance floor packed all night long. From classic hits to modern favorites, they played the perfect mix of songs to keep everyone dancing, no matter their age or music taste. They had an amazing ability to read the crowd and kept the party going without ever missing a beat.
The live music was such a special touch, and it was clear they were just as excited to be part of our celebration as we were to have them there. They were so kind to learn songs for our wedding, and even shared that they looked forward to performing them!
If you’re looking for a band that will not only sound amazing but also bring a sense of fun and energy to your event, look no further than Naked Soul Band. They were hands-down one of the highlights of our wedding, and we can’t thank them enough for making our day even more memorable!
Hiring Naked Soul band was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding! Leading up to our wedding, they were friendly, professional, communicative, and easy to work with. We were extremely grateful that they learned a song that was important to us, and that they took the time to go over with us what we wanted the evening to look like and the logistics of the event. We told them we wanted our wedding to basically be like a huge party and they delivered! The musicians were incredibly talented, and their energy was infectious! So many of our guests were out on the dance floor all night long! The band could accurately read the vibe in the room and know when to continue with a similar genre of music or when to switch it up. We had guests all night, and still five months later, talking about how incredible the band was. We highly, highly recommend them! 100% worth every single penny.
Any questions?
Where do I even begin?! Hiring Naked Soul was one of the best decisions we made for our June 2024 wedding. My husband and I said that we wanted our wedding to feel like one big dance party/concert and Naked Soul truly delivered.
From the very first conversation with Tony, we were put at ease. He's truly one of the kindest, most thoughtful people! He took a lot of time to get to know my husband and me, ensuring that our needs and wishes were top of mind.
Tony was extremely organized and communicative, making sure to stay in touch and keep us in the know of the timeline and all of the necessary deliverables (e.g. song requests, first dance, etc). The song we chose for our first dance wasn’t part of their original setlist, but they learned it just for us and performed it flawlessly! We also had some concerns about the dance floor space, and Tony went for a site visit to meet with the venue coordinator and confirm that it was all doable.
Regarding the actual wedding day, Tony and the entire Naked Soul band were extremely professional and SO TALENTED!!! Their energy was contagious, and everyone was on the dance floor. Even family members who rarely dance at weddings were on their feet! The band is so in sync with one another, and really knows how to put on a show. From the vocals to the piano to the horns... there's really nothing like it. I highly recommend hiring them for your wedding!
Naked Soul (led by Tony and Tom Perrone) absolutely ROCKED at our wedding! Tons of friends and family told us during and afterwards that they were the best wedding band they'd seen, and we might be biased, but we agree wholeheartedly. They were also pretty great to work with, and as a result music was one of the least stressful parts of planning and one of the best memories of the event.
The planning process was extremely professional — we had a few calls with Tony to talk over the vibe we were going for in the ceremony, cocktail hour, and dance floor. They sent over a list of a couple hundred songs in their repertoire and we picked 20 or so to anchor their idea of what we were looking for and selected our processionals, recessional, first dance, and parent-child dances. Our first dance was not on their list but they learned it and killed it in their performance. Our venue was a little non-traditional (relatively small room for the dance floor+band) and we weren't sure that a full band was going to work in the space, but Tony put us at ease and pulled it off amazingly.
One of the points Tony made in the run-up was that the songs we were picking were recommendations, not a set list. The band was going to follow the vibe and play more of whatever style was working with the crowd. This made it so much easier for us to pick songs, and in the end they played a lot of stuff that wasn't in our pics but went over better than we could have dreamed. I never thought I'd say that the best songs at my wedding were from the Backstreet Boys, Spice Girls, and Black Eyed Peas. They knew their audience and the place went wild when they played Everybody (Backstreet's Back). The range of songs that a 10-piece band with a full array of vocalists can pull off is wild.
Anyway, 10/10, would book again. If you're in the New York area and looking for a party we can't recommend Perrone Bros/Naked Soul highly enough.
I recommend Perrone Bros. Entertainment wholeheartedly, and without any reservation, they were absolutely incredible! Friendly and professional, clear communication, and were adaptable to curating the evening to make our reception uniquely ours. Not to mention the QUALITY of the band! There were countless moments throughout the evening where guests were stunned, thinking it must somehow be the original artist singing/performing! They are truly amazing, and across an impressive array of musical styles. This band was truly one the great highlights of an incredible evening. Highly recommend!!
We were thrilled to have Perrone Bros Entertainment as the DJs for our wedding after-party, and they were absolutely phenomenal!
They brought the perfect energy to keep the celebration going after the formal reception. The music was perfectly tailored to the party vibe we wanted, and they kept the dance floor alive until the very end. Their ability to read the crowd and mix tracks seamlessly ensured that everyone stayed energized and having fun throughout the night.
Perrone Bros Entertainment also made the planning process so easy. They worked with us on song requests and special moments, ensuring everything ran smoothly.
We hired the jazz trio to play at our cocktail hour for our June 2023 wedding. The jazz trio was amazing, and our guests couldn't stop talking about them. The trio set an incredible tone for the rest of the evening and was a great way to lead into the reception. Tony and his team were professional and a pleasure to work with. The trio made the night so incredibly special, and we recommend to others looking for entertainment for their wedding. Thank you to the whole team for making our day so special!!
Naked Soul crushed it!! We were absolutely thrilled with the performance of the band at for special day. Their energy, professionalism, and musical talent added an incredible atmosphere to the celebration. Would highly recommend!!
They were amazing!!!
My now-husband and I hired the Perrone Brothers to play at our wedding recently and we can’t say enough good things about them. They brought so much energy to the party and sounded amazing. Everyone was on the dance floor for the entire reception! Anthony had great recommendations on how to make the party flow smoothly and he kept in mind all of our special requests like calling out our guests who had birthdays that weekend and playing lots of Beyonce! Thank you so much!
Everyone loved our band!!!! We all danced all night. Also Tony is one of the nicest guys you will ever work with!
We saw Naked Soul at a family member's wedding a few years ago and we knew we wanted them for our wedding. They were absolutely AMAZING. All of our guests raved about how amazing the band was after our wedding, and that's all thanks to Tony and Naked Soul. Everyone was on the dance floor the whole time and we could not have been happier with the music they played.
Tony was so communicative, easy to work with, and extremely accommodating. We would definitely recommend booking Perrone Bros!
Naked Soul was recommended by a colleague who described them as the best band he's ever seen - and we could not have been happier with them as our wedding band. Tony went above and beyond to accommodate our needs and to make a smaller space work (we got married at a restaurant in NYC). He spent a lot of time getting to know my husband and me, and understanding our wants and needs for our wedding. The band is extremely talented, they have great energy, and it's clear that they truly enjoy performing together. Highly, highly recommend.
We could not have asked for a better experience than working with the Perrone Brothers!! We opted for the Naked Soul Band for our reception and used their pianist for our ceremony music. The band was amazing!! They kept the dance floor packed all night and really took into consideration the type of music we preferred. When the song we wanted to use for our first dance was not on their initial set list, they were able to learn it for us and perform it perfectly! The entire process was so easy and they were extremely receptive to all communication before the wedding, making it one less thing to worry about on wedding day. You will not regret hiring the Naked Soul Band for your wedding day!
Wow, wow, wow! My wedding planners recommended Naked Soul for my wedding and promised they would have all my guests on the dancefloor (this was my top priority). Well...let's just say the dancefloor was PACKED the whole night! I think at one point all 160 guests were out of their chairs. The band exceeded my expectations! Their energy was beyond electric.. my guests are still talking about them 6 months later! If you are looking for a talented, high energy band please look no further! They were by far my favorite part of our wedding day! In addition, Anthony, the owner is a pleasure to work with, he is very professional and kind. We were in touch a couple months prior to the wedding to talk about the schedule, vibe we were going for, songs we wanted to hear/did NOT want to hear, etc. Overall, an amazing experience!
Perrone Bros. Entertainment hit a home run at our wedding! Tony & Scott are professionals, reliable and a pleasure to work with! You won't be disappointed!!
Naked Soul was an INCREDIBLE band. Anthony (the band leader and MC) did an amazing job of keeping our wedding flowing and fun. As a gay couple we dealt with a lot of vendors who asked about the "bride" and wanted to cater to more traditional weddings, where as Naked Soul was extremely accepting and welcoming to our non-traditional wedding. All of our guests raved about how wonderful the band was. The music selections were perfect. If we have another event in the future, we will absolutely hire them again!
If you’re looking for a high energy, fun, kind and versatile live band for your wedding or special event- look no further than Naked Soul! They were absolutely amazing every step of the way- extremely responsive, flexible and excited and eager to make our day exactly what we wanted it to be. All of our guests have repeatedly raved about our wedding and the music thanks to Perrone Bros entertainment, they really did play something for every age group. Our dance floor was packed the entire night! The brass trio at our cocktail hour was lovely and really added an extra touch to the ambiance. Tony really cares about delivering for you on your wedding day and I would 1000% recommend any future couples to book with Naked Soul for their music needs without hesitation.
We recently hired the Naked Soul / Perrone Bros. Entertainment for our big day, and we couldn't be happier with our choice! From start to finish, the band was professional, accommodating, and just an absolute pleasure to work with.
The music they played was top-notch and had everyone on the dance floor all night long. They were able to flawlessly execute all of our special requests, and even learned a new song for us at the last minute.
The band's energy and enthusiasm was infectious, and they truly made our wedding reception one to remember. We received countless compliments from our guests about how much they enjoyed the music and how much fun they had.
We would highly recommend the Perrone Bros. Entertainment to anyone looking for top-notch entertainment for their special occasion. They truly went above and beyond to make our wedding reception a night to remember. Thank you, Perrone Bros. Entertainment, for making our big day so special!
I am very rarely left speechless. There really are no words to express how much Anthony and the members of the Naked Soul Band made my daughter and her husband's wedding so amazingly perfect. Anthony's professionalism from the second I first spoke with him was exceptional. His patience with me and my daughter in making sure we chose songs that they knew how to play or had enough time to learn was unmatched. From the second they started playing, the dance floor was NEVER empty. As a matter of fact, one of our guests who is notorious for not being a big dancer was on the dance floor quite a bit and having the greatest time! I received the recommendation from my secretary and this is what she said "I have been to three weddings this year and two of them I never got on the dance floor, the wedding with the Naked Soul Band, I never got OFF the dance floor"!! It was the best recommendation I've ever gotten! I would recommend them highly to anyone and everyone! The truly are the best!
We LOVE the Perrone Bros & Naked Soul Band! Our experience with them for our wedding was nothing short of perfect. Best wedding band we could've asked for, and best after-party DJ too. Just a 5-star experience all around. Thank you for the most memorable wedding! If you are in the Westchester area, this needs to be your wedding band.
Naked Soul exceeded all of our expectations and we highly recommend them for any wedding! I was "pro DJ" for the wedding, but my now husband insisted on having a band. So, I decided to see Naked Soul at a showcase and after 5 minutes of hearing the band, I can't believe I ever considered having a DJ. Having a live band really makes the wedding. People are still talking about Naked Soul months after our wedding. We mainly worked with Anthony and he was such a pleasure to work with. Our wedding was in May of 2021 and it was definitely a strange time to get married. We didn't even know if we were going to be allowed to dance just a few weeks before our wedding. Anthony gave us plenty of time to decide what was best for us and was very accommodating to any last minute changes. I give Naked Soul 10+ stars!
Absolutely fantastic!!! We loved working with the Perrone brothers! So many of our guests came up to us after the wedding saying how much they loved the band. My sister is even using them for her wedding in June! They are so great to work with and are such a talented group of musicians! I couldn’t recommend them more!
AMAZING! The Perrone Bros set the mood beautifully for our ceremony and cocktail hour with a violin and guitar duo and transitioned the reception dinner to dancing perfectly with an MC and DJ. Everyone had a fantastic time dancing the night away at our wedding, people are still telling us that it was the most fun they've had at a wedding- I think my husband and I took one 30 second break from dancing to hydrate and then we were back on the dance floor! It was such a pleasure to plan everything out with Anthony and we loved the guitarist and violinist, "Here Comes the Sun" right as the rain stopped and the outdoor ceremony began. Thank you for making our day so awesome!
The Perrone Brothers and their Naked Soul Band were the highlight of our wedding! They provided live music for our ceremony, cocktail hour and reception. Anthony made every part of planning simple and helpful, especially during a very uncertain time. (We weren’t sure if we were even going to have a wedding due to Covid and the endless changes in restrictions). Anthony and the band learned several new songs to make our ceremony and reception more intimate and unique. Perrone Bros. Entertainment are very flexible and can make anything work for you. Our family is half Cuban and Anthony was able to add an incredible Latin vocalist, who blended with the rest of the insanely talented band and musicians perfectly. Everyone at our wedding has not stopped raving about Naked Soul Band and how great the music and the energy was all night long! We are working on some future celebrations to hire them again—it was the best night of our lives!!!!
Naked Soul performed at my wedding in October and they were amazing. My guests still keep talking about how great the band was. The band does not only provide fantastic entertainment but working with Anthony was a pleasure, he listened to everything I wanted and made it happen.
We simply cannot say enough good things about Perrone Bros. Tony and his team were incredibly professional and helpful through the booking process, taking care to help us through two COVID reschedules. Perrone Bros supplied our wedding with a phenomenal harpist for our ceremony, energetic DJ and MC for our reception, and an amazing photo booth. Perrone Bros have a fun and intuitive style - they are clearly professionals who can "read the room" and deliver. We and our wedding guests had a fantastic time because of Perrone Bros' care, creativity, and energy.
Highly recommend this very professional team for any event.
LOOK NO FURTHER! Naked Soul not only surpassed our expectations on our wedding night, but Anthony paid close attention to our requests, vibe of music AND the specific vocals we requested. He really came thru in delivering the best night we could have asked for, and ALL generations were raving about the band! The dance floor was packed the entire night. Despite these crazy covid times and not hearing the band live until our wedding night, it was better than I could have ever imagined. Naked Soul is LEGIT!
From our first words with Tony on the phone, we knew we had found the perfect fit for us. Tony was friendly, professional, and punctual every step of the way. Even after we needed to make changes because of COVID, he was able to accommodate us at every turn. We never needed to wait more than a day to hear a response from Tony. Additionally, the package we booked with Perrone Bros was a relative bargain compared to their competition. We worked with Scott and had a tremendous reception. He did an excellent job keeping the dance floor energetic and full of life. He was also able to use authentic Lebanese music, which meant a great deal to us. We highly, highly recommend the Perrone Bros to anyone who needs a DJ or live band. You will not regret it!

We always thought Naked Soul was the best band we'd ever heard at a wedding, and now we can say all our guests agreed, too: we can't even count the number of people who came up to us to say exactly that. Note that I didn't call them a "wedding band": they don't fit any of the cliches of that term and are simply a great band who happen to play at weddings. As music lovers we were always taken by the group's combination of excellent vocalists, strong horn section, and overall ability to gel musically. Their arrangements are stellar and they can truly play it all: our first dance was not on their usual repertoire list but they told us they'd "kill it" no matter what, and they more than rose to the occasion (one guest even told us she thought it was the original artist's recording at first). Yes, the band is an investment, but worth every penny -- we wish we had another occasion to hire them for!
The Perrone Bros. Entertainment are phenomenal. They truly made the wedding as amazing as it was!! We got so many compliments on our choice of band and even now *(4 months later), people still tell us how amazing out band was! Working with Anthony was a dream. He was so accommodating and easy to work with. It was one of the few times I trusted the process" with the music by letting them pick almost all of the songs. I loved how lively they were but at the same time, they were not too loud where I couldn't have a conversation! We highly recommend them for any event!!
Everything you've read about Naked Soul is true. They are amazing at what they do and will have your guests on their feet the entire night. In the weeks leading up to our wedding, Tony (music director and band member) walked us through the details of how the night would unfold, and collected a song list from us so the band could get a sense of our preferences. He took his time walking us through different options for things we had to make decisions about, and during that final call a few weeks before the big day, Tony displayed a level of calmness and preparedness that left us feeling confident that our entertainment for the night was going to be perfect -- and it was!!
I may be biased because it was my wedding but I really do think Naked Soul is the best band I have ever heard at a wedding. They were honestly incredible. The first thing everyone says when asked about our wedding is how amazing the band was. Not only did they sound great, they were also very professional and a pleasure to communicate with. If you are looking for a band, look no further. Naked Soul is THE band for your event or wedding. You won't regret it.
Working with Perrone Bros Entertainment was one of the best choices we made for our wedding! We saw their band Naked Soul perform at a friend's wedding and knew we needed to hire them for our own wedding last October, 2019. Anthony was such a pleasure to work with and Naked Soul is without a doubt the BEST band we ever heard at a wedding. They had us and our guests on the dance floor from the start of our reception to the very last song and I really can't say enough good things about the brothers and their band. If you are considering hiring Naked Soul for your special day.. just do it! You will not regret it! My wife and I could not be happier... BEST. BAND. EVER!
We worked with the Perrone brothers for our 2019 wedding and we couldn’t have been happier with the decision we made. The brothers performed for our reception with their amazing band Naked Soul and we’re still hearing from our family and friends that this was the best band they’d ever heard. In addition to Naked Soul, Anthony (one of the Perrone brothers) lined up an elegant string quartet for our ceremony, hip Jazz trio for our cocktail hour and an excellent DJ for our after party who was incredible at hitting just the right vibe for the last portion of our wedding. In addition to all of this, they also set us up with a lighting package that really put the finishing touches on the look of our ballroom. Anthony was already familiar with the space and made just the right recommendations. If you’re looking for high quality entertainment for your event, look no further. Perrone Bros. Entertainment is the best you’ll find anywhere, hands down.
I saw the Naked Soul perform 6 years ago at a wedding and was absolutely blown away! They are unbelievably talented and know how to work a crowd. I obviously needed to have them at my wedding but then unfortunately COVID hit. I had to change my wedding date three times. Anthony, from Perrone Bros. Entertainment was nothing less than amazing and accommodating. He could have charged me a fee on three separate occasions for changing my date but, he didn't. Instead, he gave me words of support and helped in securing a new date with them. When you book your wedding with Perrone Bros. Entertainment you get more than a band, you get a support system that understands how important your wedding day is. I can not thank them enough for how amazing they have been and encourage future couples to meet with them and see how amazing the Naked Soul really is!
Wow. My husband and I are still hearing from people telling us this was the best wedding band they've ever heard almost 2 months after the wedding. They were willing to learn a handful of new songs for us - one of which was I Believe In A Thing Called Love - and they absolutely crushed it. They know how to read a crowd and keep the energy level high all night. They had a wonderful diversity of voices in the band, allowing them to play all genres of music flawlessly. They also provided 2 musicians
for our cocktail hour who were great as well. Can't recommend them enough!
I couldn’t be happier with the choice to have Perrone Brothers Entertainment provide the entertainment for our family’s wedding! From the first call to the last note of the evening, everything was handled beautifully. The service Anthony provided was exceptional and the music from the band was flawless. As the mother of the bride, I was at ease knowing that we were in the good hands of caring, talented musicians. I would recommend them without hesitation to anyone in need of entertainment for a special celebration. There is nothing like exceptional live music and the Perrone brothers will deliver!
Don’t think twice.. book them now! The Perrone brothers did everything to make our day perfect - from Anthony’s guidance in the planning phases and helping to select just the right people and equipment needed - to the performances of the talented musicians and DJs that provided an amazing night of music for us and our guests. We booked a string quartet for the ceremony, a jazz trio for the cocktail hour, and a DJ/MC team for the reception. Perrone Bros was also able to handle the lighting design and provided a fun photo booth for the party as well! Everyone on the team was just incredible and proved that the entertainment really makes all the difference for such an important day. The dance floor was full all night and our friends are still raving about how much fun they had. We’re so grateful for all they did to make our wedding so special!
We were so glad we chose naked soul for our wedding. They are so talented and very professional. Everyone was up dancing the whole night!!! What a fabulous band!
Naked Soul was one of the best vendors we hired for our wedding! It is so instrumental (no pun intended) to have an excellent band to ensure a fun atmosphere at a wedding and Naked Soul delivered! I had heard HORROR stories from my fellow brides about wedding bands that were so disorganized, difficult to communicate with and did not do anything but play a set through but Naked Soul, and specifically Anthony, were a DREAM to work with! They fully understood logistics of wedding reception timing, were so flexible and such a pleasure to communicate with throughout our wedding planning process. I felt so at ease knowing they were going to deliver not only top notch music, but top notch SERVICE on our wedding day. I encourage all brides to book ASAP and to not only use Naked Soul for your band at the reception but to also consider their jazz trio for cocktail hour (which was so well received)! Our guests now 6 weeks later are still raving about the music and I can't thank Naked Soul enough for making our wedding such a success!
Absolutely loved Anthony and this band for our wedding. My only regret was that we didn't have more time in the night for them to play. Vocalists and instrumentalists were top quality and all worked together beautifully. All our guests commented that they hadn't heard that good a band and had that much fun dancing in a long time!
Naked Soul was 100% the perfect choice for us when hiring our band and they did not disappoint! Anthony was amazing to work with from the beginning and was responsive and helpful every step of the way. Multiple people told us it was the best wedding band they had ever seen and the dance floor was packed the entire night! One of the highlights of our night was getting up on stage with them! We also added another singer which was one was the best decisions we made, and rented uplighting through the band - it looked great and was so nice to not have to work with another vendor for it! They really it the best night of our lives! Couldn't recommend Naked Soul more!
When choosing a band for your event, you only need to remember two words: Naked Soul!
Anthony is so easy to work with. He’s professional, flexible, quick to respond to questions and happy to offer suggestions/advice when asked. The band is so talented and the energy they bring to the party cannot be topped. They are enthusiastic, clearly love what they do and are great at reading the crowd and knowing what to play to keep the dance floor bumpn’.
Weeks after the affair, our guests are still raving about how amazing our band was. Naked Soul certainly helped make my daughter and son-in-laws wedding a day none of us will ever forget!
If you are looking for a band that will have your family and friends up on the dance floor all night long and never wanting to go back to their seats than this is your band! Naked Soul is not only talented but organized and makes you feel comfortable and confident in their ability to put on an amazing show! Their talent is unmatched! Everyone of our family and friends were raving about how Naked Soul was the BEST wedding band they have ever heard and I could not agree more! Their vocalists have incredible range, one of our guests even commented that they thought the songs were recordings!
The Naked Soul Band exceeded all expectations for what a wedding band should be. Anthony took the time to really get a sense of what kind of music we liked, and the incredibly talented band did a great job of pacing and reading the wedding guests to playing tunes that kept everyone on the dance floor for the whole evening. They were willing to learn a few songs (including my wife and I's first dance song) and still didn't miss a note all evening. After the wedding, we had dozens of people ask us about the band because they knocked it out of the park. Thank you so much!
We saw Naked Soul at another wedding in June 2017 and immediately had to have them. They played our wedding in June 2019 and were AMAZING. Anthony is incredible to work with - super easy, kind, flexible, professional, and communicative. The band is so talented, energetic, and really made it our wedding an awesome party. They played songs we requested that we knew would be a long shot and made us so happy to hear them! Wedding guests, including guests that play music professionally, were so complimentary of the band. Highly recommended!
All I can say is it's amazing the impact that 1 person can have on your big day. Don't get me wrong the band was great but Tony and Jerome ruined my day and I spent the first 10 minutes of my wedding in tears. During the lead up time, Tony was very easy to work with - I worked with him for years and was trying to book them before I even got engaged. While the crowd LOVED them, I was very disappointed with the way they handled the situation of the lead singer, Jerome being out sick. I booked this band for Jerome and made that clear from the beginning. My husband and I spent months following him on instagram, sharing videos of him with our friends and family, commenting on his posts and going out of our way to meet him at the showcase. I emailed Tony the week of my wedding to specifically confirm Jerome. My worst nightmare came true when I was told 5 minutes before my reception that Jerome was sick. After years of communication, I was shocked that Tony waited to tell me this information until the night of the wedding when he found out that morning! I was told as I was standing in my dress, surrounded by all of my guests and it shook me really hard. As an event planner myself, I know that things happen that are out of your control, but the client deserves to know important information the moment it happens and there is a time and place to deliver information. Good news is my guests had no idea, the band sounded great (other than the finale song which was a SLOW song and I specifically said no slow songs and made a very specific request for my finale). Learn from my mistake, stay in contact with them up until the moment the wedding begins to ensure you are aware of the most up to date information.
Naked Soul is a phenomenal group of artists. I was married three weeks ago, and everyone is still buzzing about the band.
Before the wedding, we had numerous email and phone conversations with Anthony. We discussed the flow of the night (e.g., whether speeches should be spaced out or all together, when we should do the hora, etc.) We solicited his advice on many of these questions and he had helpful insight based on his extensive experience.
Although we provided a list of songs we love, we trusted the band to read the room and to use its discretion to build the energy throughout the night. I'm so glad we trusted Anthony and crew, they absolutely killed it. Never would have thought that the night could have moved so effortlessly and smoothly, from song to song, across generations, from Ben.

Thanks Naked Soul for making the night so special.
We hired naked soul for our wedding reception late June 2018 and they were amazing. Our guests couldn’t believe how great the band was. Anthony was very professional, responsive and easy to work with during the process of selecting music and musicians for our wedding. Anthony also arranged the musicians for our reception and ceremony which was a big help. We received plenty of complements from our guests on the quality of the live music at our wedding. Overall the decision to use Perrone Brothers for our wedding entertainment was worth every penny and we would hire them again in a heartbeat.
It was a pleasure to work with Perrone Bros. for our son’s wedding. They truly listened to exactly what we wanted for the reception in terms of tone, choices, and overall vibe. I am still receiving tons of compliments from our guests about what a great band we selected. I would recommend them for your event. You will be very happy with the finished product!
There really aren't words to describe just how good the Naked Soul Band truly are... what I can say is the night of our wedding and days and weeks following people could not stop talking about how amazing our band was. Our friends are still reaching out for their information. We were lucky enough to work with the Perrone Bros for all parts of our wedding day from our ceremony to our cocktail hour and of course our reception. Every part was so special and so unique. If you're looking for live music -- I would highly recommend Naked Soul! I can't wait to go to another event where they are performing!
The Perrone Brothers were an absolute joy to work with throughout our planning process. Anthony was super thorough with every detail. We had booked Naked Soul Band because we had seen them at another wedding a few years ago. Let me tell you - they have gotten even better! They totally rocked our wedding this past August. Dance floor was totally full, and we received so much positive feedback on their music selection and their presence. I would highly recommend them for your big day!
My wife and I are HUGE music fans. I've been to over 200 concerts--my wife isn't far behind--and that includes some of history's greatest artists, like Paul McCartney. The Naked Soul BLEW US AWAY! As someone who LOVES 80s/90s cover bands and has seen some of the better ones around NYC, these guys are even better. They came HIGHLY recommended by someone who had seen Naked Soul at two different weddings, and they absolutely murdered our wedding dance floor. We had multiple people come up to us after the wedding to ask for details on the band. We were dancing all night long and so was the rest of our party.
More importantly, Tony is amazing. You won't find a nicer guy, and he worked with us to choreograph our first dance and also learned some special songs for us to play on the dance floor.
Thank you for everything.

Our guests were dancing all night! We couldn't have picked a better band than Naked Soul (Perrone Brothers band) for our wedding reception. We're still hearing from guests (6 months later) that they loved the band. Anthony was great to work with throughout the planning process. He was incredibly responsive and offered helpful guidance. We are so happy that we chose Naked Soul!
We had such a positive experience with Naked Soul. They were professional and personable. Anthony was easy to communicate with and was flexible during the event. They played a great selection of songs, and kept my guests dancing until the very end. They are so talented and were a pleasure to work with.
I would highly recommend this band. I can't say enough good things about them! They helped to make our wedding night such a success with their high energy, great music and professionalism. They had everyone up on the dance floor the entire night and even had us singing at the end of the night!!
Three words for this band: SIMPLY THE BEST! As the Mother of the Bride and Wedding Planner, I can not say enough about this band, starting with Tony and Tommy Perrone, who truly are gifted musicians and above all have professionalism and integrity in this crazy event industry ...I can not say that about others who I have worked with through the years. The band has amazing heart and soul in all that they bring to every event. The energy is felt. There are no breaks for these performers. You need to tell them it is time for a break. My daughter and son-in-law wanted a DJ and I advised them it is not the same energy as a live band. They were skeptical but now they believe that Naked Soul was the best decision, starting with the acoustic performers at cocktail hour and continuing with the band at dinner, the party never slowed down! We didn't want it to end...thank you !

Thank you so much Debra! We were honored to provide all of the music for your daughter's big day! We can't wait to see you again too!
Book Naked Soul ASAP, because they book up fast! At first I was hesitant to book a band for our wedding (most weddings I have gone to have had DJs only), but after attending a showcase for Naked Soul, we booked them (thank god they were available) and we never looked back! Working with Tony was one of the smoothest processes. He met with us to get a feel for our style and taste in music, he listened to our requests, and he is just an all around amazing guy!
The band - O. M. G. I can’t even begin to count how many compliments we got. One of the singers, Jerome, sang our first dance song - Stand By Me - and it was so amazing that people who were far away from the dance floor thought that it was a recorded track! He’s seriously that good. The rest of the band and singers are insanely talented too! Do yourself a favor and book Naked Soul ASAP, if you want to have the wedding of the year! :)

Thank you so much Jackie! Your wedding was one of the most memorable events ever! All the best to you and Chris! #iSherDo
Naked Soul Band provides top notch entertainment. Anthony is professional, communicative and an absolute pleasure to work with. He takes the time to go the extra mile to make sure he takes care of both the client and his band members. The band is extremely talented and excellent at reading a crowd with the music selection. They also are flexible on timeline changes which can be imperative during events!
I first saw Naked Soul at a friend's wedding where they put on an incredible show! The dance floor was packed all night and the range of songs and musical styles ensured kept the vibe fresh and energetic. When we were looking for bands for our wedding we immediately reached out to the band leader Anthony. They performed at our wedding and everyone commented on how great the band was. Four hours of non stop dancing! They also provided speakers and a playlist for happy hour and mics/speakers for the ceremony.
Response from the Vendor on 11/04/2017
Thanks Jim! Your wedding was so much fun! Great energy and so much love in that room for you and Matt! Wishing you all the best...
We were very pleased with our experience with Anthony and his crew. The band was incredible on our wedding night, super engaging with the crowd and lively up until the very end. So many guests came up to us in the middle of our reception to tell us how much they loved our band! Anthony was very easy to work with and was prompt and professional with anything we needed along the way. I would definitely recommend them for a wedding band!
Response from the Vendor on 11/04/2017
Thanks Ellen and Ari! So happy to hear how pleased you were with everything. That was a great night!
Naked Soul absolutely made our wedding the greatest party of the year! Anthony Perrone worked so closely with me to plan out the perfect day, and even helped me coordinate a surprise entrance song for my husband that he's still raving about! The dance floor was packed all night and my guests are still calling me complimenting Naked Soul.
Booking Naked Soul was the greatest move I made throughout the entire wedding planning process. Anthony even met with me for coffee to go over the schedule one-on-one and calm any anxiety I may have had over the big day. I knew I was in amazing hands the entire time!!
The Perrone Bros. even had an Italian Accordionist for my cocktail hour which made all of the guests reminiscent of Italy.
Thank you, Perrone Bros. & Naked Soul! Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!!
Response from the Vendor on 11/03/2017
Thank you Laura! We had a blast celebrating with you and your guests!
We hired Naked Soul from the Perrone Brothers and were so incredibly happy with our decision. They put on a helluva show and kept people on the dance floor from before dinner and throughout the night. The musicians were clear professionals and demonstrated incredible energy on stage as well as on the dance floor! My wedding was over a year ago from writing this review and to this day people won't stop talking about how great the band was at my wedding.
I would hire them again in a heartbeat. Thanks!
We can't say enough good things about Naked Soul. Anthony was extremely responsive to us over the course of planning and really listened to what we wanted to hear (and what we didn't want to hear at our wedding). They had everyone up on the dance floor the entire night. The saxophone and trombone players came out on the dance floor, which made our night extra special. The band has such great chemistry (and I'm not talking about just the Perrone Bros) and definitely knows how to get the crowd going. I have never and will never see a band better than them at a wedding. Jerome, and the two female vocalists are truly talented. We spent our first dance not focusing on each other because we couldn't get over how talented they all are. They were true professionals and I wish we had another excuse to hire them once more! You can't go wrong booking them and honestly shouldn't look to book any other group!
Naked Soul has become our family’s go-to wedding band. In the seven years between my sister’s wedding and my own, the band has improved on what was already a five-star performance. From engaging with the crowd to perfectly replicating our favorite songs, Naked Soul is the best wedding band I’ve ever heard. Hire them right now!
I can't say this enough: Naked Soul (Perrone Bros Entertainment) was BY FAR the best part of my wedding. A delight to work with, incredibly professional, and my god they sound amazing! A truly phenomenal band--simply spectacular! Incredible sound, amazing energy, and a wide range of music executed perfectly! I couldn't have been happier! They made the whole day a huge success, and I've since been nagging all my NY friends to get married so they'll use Naked Soul, just so we can dance to them again! Thank you so much, Anthony and all of Naked Soul, for everything.
If I could give 6 stars I would. Worth every penny. I cannot recommend anthony and the rest of the naked soul gang more so professional, pleasant and easy to work with. my favorite vendor out of the 20+ vendors we worked with while planning our 200+ nyc wedding. we booked them 11 months out just to guarantee they would be available to play our june wedding .
Naked Soul rocked our wedding and many of our guests raved about them afterwards. They are extremely talented and bring a stellar sound with a great mix of musical styles. Anthony is a pleasure to work with, and you can tell he really cares about making the day memorable
We used Perrone Bros. Naked Soul Band for our wedding and they really helped to bring our wedding to life! From the start, Anthony was extremely easy to work with, professional, and personable. We booked the band without meeting them and after just one phone call, because their online performances were talented and lively, and we really trusted Perrone Bros. to produce an awesome band. Several months later I met them and got to see them perform at a showcase in NYC and I couldn't have been happier with the choice I made to use them for my wedding. They have a huge list of songs to choose from and are also able to learn and play songs they don't usually play. They provided musicians who so beautifully played the unconventional songs that I wanted for my ceremony. And later in the night, several friends told me that he singers' voices were so on point, they thought my first dance song was coming from a recording. Perrone Bros. Naked Soul Band had my party dancing all night and it was tough for the night to end. Highly highly recommended!
We couldn’t have been happier with Naked Soul providing live music for our wedding! Our guests were on their feet the whole night and had a fantastic time! It was a pleasure working with Anthony on our playlist and he was able to meet our requests. After the wedding, so many of our friends told us how the music was the best they had experienced at any wedding! I highly recommend Naked Soul for your wedding night.
Naked Soul performed at our wedding and was absolutely fantastic. They respected all of our requests of songs to play (and not play), and made the entire process very very easy. Most importantly though, many of our guests remarked how they were the best wedding band that they had ever heard. We couldn't agree more! I recommend them without any reservations whatsoever.
This company was absolutely great to work with. We hired them for our wedding and we can't explain how happy we were with everything. We worked closely with Tony and he was great at responding to our questions and needs. We had a mix of live entertainment and a DJ for our wedding and they were the only company we found that could pull this off. We had a string quartet for our ceremony that sounded amazing. Shortly before the wedding we asked if they could play some non-traditional music as we walked down the aisle. Even with the short time frame the musicians learned the music and played it flawlessly. We were very impressed that they were able to do this so quickly. We also had a jazz band at cocktail hour. Even though we only got to hear a song or two because we were so busy with pictures all our guests said they sounded great and loved listening to them. It really helped to set a fun party mood before the reception. We had Scot as our DJ at the reception and he was awesome. He provided suggestions on a non-traditional flow of the reception in terms of when to play music, introduce everyone and make toasts. We were a little skeptical at first but it went great and everyone loved the different flow of the wedding. Scot kept the party going and people energized all night. The guests were very disappointed when the party was over at night. Scot did an awesome job and was accommodating to all our requests.
We had one minor issue in which I planned a surprise to include musicians after the ceremony that did not go off according to plan. This was difficult to execute, but still a bit disappointing that we couldn't make the surprise happen after months of planning. In reality, there was no clear ending to the ceremony so it was a bit confusing for all parties involved!
Overall this was the perfect company for us to work with. Tony and Scot were the nicest people to work with and you can tell they care about making your event great. We live out of state, but Tony was very willing to jump on a call and answer questions and discuss our requests. He was very accommodating. They did a lot for us within our budget and words can't describe how appreciative and happy we were with this company. They are fun and their music is superb. We would definitely recommend them to anyone having an event.
As mother of the bride, I can say that Tony Perrone and his band kept the entire reception - old and young - on its feet and deliriously happy all night long. They generously learned an entire set of 90s music for my daughter and her new husband. The finale of "I'll Be There" lent new meaning to that song for the couples, good friends, families and well-wishers. Tony did not take a break once, with lovely background music during dinner and his jazz trio setting a beautiful tone during cocktail hour. Now I know where the name comes from - they truly touched our souls!
A live band was very important to both of our families when planning our wedding and I was thrilled when I found The Naked Soul Band! We were unable to see the band live before our wedding, but Tony supplied us with several videos and reviews, and there was never a doubt in our mind that they were the perfect fit for us!
Tony was very involved throughout our entire wedding planning process, walking us through everything we needed for our day to be a success! The band was incredibly flexible and learned three new songs for us (our first dance, and our two parent dances). We chose ‘Steady As We Go’ by Dave Matthews as our wedding song and we were a little hesitant leading up to our wedding night about how the song would sound, knowing that Dave Matthews has such a distinct voice. When we stepped onto the dance floor for our first dance, we were blown away! It sounded like we were at a DMB concert and Dave was right in the room with us. They totally rocked the song, and didn’t just stop with the vocals, the instrumentals were incredible!!
They had everyone on the dance floor from the moment our reception started, right until the very end of the evening. Our guests are still raving about our wedding almost two months later, and the only complaint – that we couldn’t keep the party going later!
The Naked Soul Band will not disappoint! They have a young, exciting vibe, they are extremely professional, and most importantly, they are willing to be as flexible as possible to make sure your wedding day is everything you dreamed it would be!
When my fiancé and I got engaged in 2014 it was a no brainer that we would use Naked Soul for our wedding in April 2016. My family has known the Perrone’s for many years, so we were very excited to finally be able to use their band for a family affair.
Tony is such a pleasure to work with and he will go above and beyond to make sure everything for your day goes exactly how you want it to. He is very responsive and offers his help is all aspects of the wedding, not just music. He also went to our venue prior to the wedding to check out the ballroom, as the band had never performed there before (we live in NJ).
My fiancé and I chose a non-traditional first dance song, Together Forever by Rich Astley, and the band learned it for us. On the day of the wedding I was blown away by how great they performed it and how amazing they sounded.
My husband and I had such a great time dancing to it and our guests loved it! I keep re-watching the videos because it was just so much fun and such a great memory.
Growing up I was a big boy band/ spice girl fan and the band learned a few of their songs for us. All of my friends were screaming and dancing out of excitement. It really was one of the highlights of the night.
I worked with Tony to hire my ceremony and cocktail hour music and they were all great. He also helped us get a DJ for our after party (who was also amazing).
My husband and I (and our parents) were beyond thrilled with them and how everything went. We did not have to worry about one thing on the day of our wedding, which is so important as you are preoccupied with a million other things.
Music is one of (if not the most) important parts of the wedding so you definitely want to ensure you have the best. You will definitely not be disappointed if you book Naked Soul for your wedding! We are still receiving so many compliments on how great band was! They will definitely have everyone on the dance floor dancing.
WOW!! I can’t say enough about INSANELY FUN Naked Soul made our wedding. We were THRILLED by how many people got out on the dance floor and stayed there until the very end. I’ve never been to a wedding where the crowd chants enthusiastically for an encore at the end of the night and Naked Soul made that happen. Our guests were not ready for the music to end despite the 90-degree weather!! My husband and I both had family members dancing their hearts out who hadn’t set foot on a dance floor in 20 years. All of the band members were amazingly talented and many of them play multiple instruments extremely well, which makes for a ton of variety and breadth in their song selection. Their energy was fabulous and my husband and I had the absolute time of our lives. Anthony, the band leader, was such a pleasure to work with every step of the way and even took a trip to our venue on his own accord the week beforehand to scout out the stage when we were having trouble with the size of the riser. He went above and beyond to make sure my husband and I were comfortable with every part of the timeline. Their attention to detail and ability to read the crowd was phenomenal and we couldn’t be happier. Naked Soul was one of the best decisions we made about our wedding and we highly, highly recommend them!
Well worth the money - great value!! Their sound was like being at a concert. Anthony was so easy to work with and they are truly professionals (the music is one thing but their ability to help the evening flow is impt!)
Naked Soul is Phenomenal!
Naked Soul made my son and daughter-in-law’s reception amazing! Everyone had a fantastic time and people kept asking about the band because they wanted to hire them for future events. My husband and I had friends “complain” the next day because they were so sore from dancing all night. Many said they couldn’t remember the last time they had so much fun. It’s now over a month later and people are still raving. I would hire Naked Soul again in a heartbeat.
With two daughters married within 9 months I have worked during the past 18 months with many, many vendors and consider myself very lucky to have found Anthony Perrone in our quest for music for a NYC wedding in April, 2016. As a preferred vendor of our venue, I read enthusiastic reviews, listened to music on the Naked Soul website and then "handed him off" to my daughter and her fiancee for final approval! After determining that Naked Soul was a terrific band, they too thought Anthony was terrific and thoughtful in their early conversations and we booked him!
As we approached the more detailed planning of the wedding, Anthony was called upon to secure a string trio for the ceremony and he promptly recommended Brooklyn Strings for the ceremony. Another item checked off the list with ease and professionalism! In the month before the wedding as we nailed down the dances, etc, Anthony was able to secure yet another musician to assure that the latin music requested by the groom and his family could be performed to the incredibly high standards of Naked Soul. Throughout these discussions and emails, Anthony could not have been more thoughtful, kind and attentive to our needs and requests. He was available to speak with my daughter and her fiancee and also to me, which I so greatly appreciated. His recommendations and insight were spot on. The wedding was a huge success. The music flowed seamlessly through a variety of genres and everyone danced the night away! Our guests have all enthusiastically mentioned the band in the numerous notes we have received. It was a pleasure working with Anthony and I hope that we will have the opportunity to work together sometime in the future.
Naked Soul KILLED IT at our wedding. I could NOT be happier with our choice. They are a 10 piece band with 3 singers. I have to call out Jerome for being unbelievable. He has a beautiful soulful voice, and honestly it is was sold me on the band in the first place. You can tell the band had been working together for years and they truly love what they do since the chemistry on stage is flawless and fun. This definitely translated to the crowd because our dance floor was packed all night. They even chanted "one more song" for an encore at the end! So many people complimented me on the band, and many engaged friends have already asked for their info. Anthony was so great to work with and I loved that he runs this band himself, rather than some agency that overcharges and makes the whole process feel so impersonal. I would recommend Naked Soul to anyone looking to have a full dance floor and a party rocking all night!
We were absolutely thrilled with Naked Soul! They are an exceptionally talented band. Everyone was out of their seats and dancing the entire night!! Anthony was very helpful in answering all of our questions and accommodating our requests. They even learned the first dance song for us. People are still raving about the music from our wedding! I would highly recommend Naked Soul to make your wedding the perfect night.
We were recommended this band through a family member's coworker. We listened to some of their sample music available on the internet, but after meeting with Anthony in person and hearing more of their song recordings we decided to book- and are so glad we did! What an AMAZING band- every single song they performed was exactly on point, and the dance floor was packed the entire night!!! All of my guests have commented on how fantastic Naked Soul was and several of my friends who are getting married have commented that they may want to use them for their own weddings as well! Additionally Anthony was so nice and pleasant to meet with and communicate with leading up the wedding. Our wedding was a wonderful night, largely because the music was perfect and made for a great dance atmosphere!
OMG! We used Perrone Bros. Entertainment for our NYC wedding and could not be happier! They supplied a string quartet for our ceremony, a jazz trio for our cocktail hour and their AMAZING band Naked Soul f
