We hired the Radio Prophets to play at our wedding ceremony, wedding cocktail hour, and wedding reception. They were spectacular and our wedding guests are still raving about them almost one year later. Behind the scenes, Gerry was fantastic to work with. He was so knowledgeable about equipment and logistics and provided us with playlist and set list examples that were really helpful during the wedding planning. We are so glad that we found the Radio Prophets and cherish all of the wonderful memories they helped us make.

I listened to everything Gerry sent me and that I could find online to hear The Radio Prophet's sound but on wedding day, all my expectations were blown away. The RPs sounded amazing and most if not all guests noticed. Gerry did a site visit which was required by our venue and adapted the band's setup to our venue. Their setlist was Funk leaning which we and our guests loved...popular with all ages. If I had to do it all over again, would choose Gerry and the RP's again.

Radio Prophets is a fantastic and top notch band!! I wanted some funky music with a horn section and talented musicians for my wedding and these guys DELIVERED! Gerry is so nice and easy to coordinate and work with the rest of the band was so friendly and truly next level musicians. They drove a couple hours to come to our event and I could not be more thrilled. It could not have been better! Thanks guys!

BOOK THIS BAND FOR YOUR WEDDING! We booked Radio Prophets for our wedding in Paso Robles, CA. They did an outstanding job and showed more professionalism than I could even imagine. They even helped with some issues we were having with the venue as well as dealt with some serious wind blowing their sheet music around.
My husband and I have a very eclectic indie rock music taste and Gerry and the band agreed to learn over 10 of our songs. Not only did they learn our songs, but they also hired a special song that has similar music tastes to sing those songs, and they killed not only our songs but some good wedding classics as well. The fact that they went out of their way to do this exceeded our expectations and they seriously rocked. I was impressed that we had non-stop dancing all night, and it is 100 percent attributed to the Radio Prophets. They made our day more special than I ever thought possible. Thank you, Radio Prophets!

Imagine having your close friends with incredible musical talent be your wedding band — that is what hiring the Radio Prophets to play at your wedding is like! From the start, they made planning so easy, and in the end delivered above and beyond all our expectations! They made our wedding celebration so special and unforgettable, our guests are still talking about the music. Everyone loved the beautiful piano acoustics for the ceremony, the classy jazz cocktail hour and then a phenomenal dance set which got everyone on the dance floor, old and young. Their energy, positivity was unparalleled. They genuinely set the entire tone of the evening and we are so grateful for the most unforgettable wedding celebration. Thank you Radio Prophets and wishing you guys so many more lucky wedding couples to celebrate with!!

A friend of mine hired Radio Prophets for their wedding and after attending the ceremony, I knew I wanted them for mine! Even though I scheduled with them only weeks before, thankfully they were able to perform and did amazing! The band showed up early to set up and were incredibly professional. The saxophonist played a solo as I walked in (bride) and it was absolutely beautiful! They also played for cocktail hour and at the reception and my guests had a blast!

This band ROCKS. They played for my wedding and were incredibly accommodating with requests for our perfect day. They set up and handled everything including the pre-event visit to the property and sound check. Communication regarding details of the event were handled quickly and professionally. I am a musician myself and was confident that this group would be amazing and I highly recommend working with them.
