About this vendor

Hudson Heights is fronted by two dynamic singers, male and female, who double as event emcees.

Hudson Heights did a fantastic job at our wedding at Lighthouse Point in New Haven CT. Eden was great to work with -- getting the contract in place, confirming logistics details, and determining the set list was all straightforward. And the band killed it at the wedding. They sounded great and people danced all night (including our parents and their friends). Beyond being professional, they seemed genuinely engaged and invested in making sure we all had a great time. Thank you Eden and team.
Hudson Heights was, above and beyond, the best wedding band we have ever seen. And that is not just coming from us, but from every single guest that we spoke with. Every song that Hudson Heights played sounded perfect (many even better than the originals). They kept the party going all night, with our guests hardly leaving the dance floor. When the night came to a close, Hudson Heights graciously played yet another song--letting us savor the night even more.
For our processional songs, the covers were more beautiful than we could have imagined and set the perfect tone for our ceremony. And then, for our first dance, there are simply no words to describe Hudson Height's rendition of our song. As much as we want to think it was our dance that moved people to tears, we have no doubt that at least a large part of the emotion was from the beauty they were able to capture in their performance.
We want to give a special shoutout to Eden, who was so warm and kind with us every step of the way. It is so clear how much she cares and how determined she is to provide the very best experience.
We aren't sure how we got so lucky to find Hudson Heights, but we are so happy that we did.
Everything with Hudson Heights was PERFECT. From our first call with Eden (who is an absolute sweetheart) to our final dance at our wedding, we could not have picked a better band. Their musical talent is unmatched, and you can tell they really care about the craft. They really listened when we told them the music we wanted/didn't want, and they learned anything that wasn't already in their repertoire. They were very organized and efficient in their setup and breakdown, with no issues during our wedding. They really took care to make sure all names would be pronounced correctly and that everything we wanted during the wedding happened. They didn't try to make it about them, but focused everything on me and my new husband (and the guests haha). They performed at the cocktail hour and the reception (we had a church wedding), and so many guests commented on how awesome they were. Thank you, Hudson Heights for making our wedding amazing.
Hudson Heights is an absolutely fantastic wedding band that truly made our special day unforgettable! From the moment they began playing music during our ceremony until the very last song of the night, they kept the dance floor packed and the energy high. Their wide range of music appeals to all ages and they did an excellent job of reading the crowd, playing songs that kept everyone engaged and having a great time.
One of the things we loved most about Hudson Heights is their versatility. They were able to seamlessly transition from one genre of music to the next, keeping the party going all night long. Their musicianship was truly impressive and the band members themselves were incredibly talented and entertaining. They even took requests and played a few of our favorite songs, which was a huge hit with our guests.
But beyond their musical talents, the band members were also incredibly professional and easy to work with. Eden was responsive and flexible during the planning process, which made everything run smoothly on the day of our wedding.
We can't recommend Hudson Heights enough for any wedding or special event. They truly made our reception one to remember and we are so grateful to have had them as a part of our big day. If you're looking for a band that will keep your guests dancing and having a great time, look no further than Hudson Heights!
Hudson Heights ROCKS. (LITERALLY!)
This band is a powerhouse that knows how to bring the party! They know exactly what to play, when to play it, and their delivery is nothing short of spectacular. Eden worked with us from day one to make sure our wedding had the flow that we wanted. They NAILED all of our dances, and worked with us to figure out what songs we wanted to hear and not to hear. They even let me (groom) and a few friends play some songs to my wife and some other special guests. Hudson Heights are true professionals at their craft and will make your wedding a memorable night for everyone!
My wife and I got married in August of 2022. To this day, everyone that attended still talks about our entertainment and the setlist we established with Hudson Heights Band. We were given the opportunity to have the group perform at our wedding and it's one of those things that you wish you could repeat from the planning to the reception.
Eden and the team gave us incredible communication and flexibility when it came to the setlist, planning, and even learned our wedding song, which is not mainstream and the band had never heard of. Accompanied by violin, piano, and layered vocals, we were floored during our first dance while a punk rock type of song was being performed for our first dance.
The gear that was used during our wedding was extremely durable and presented no issues. This helped immensely by keeping our plan and timing for the evening completely on schedule. There were no hiccups or technical difficulties during our reception and ceremony.
The engagement and crowd participation was very apparent and receptive. The fact that all the members went the extra mile to give our guests a show that was beyond their expectations was incredible. The professionalism and fun were shown throughout the night. My wife and I were ecstatic to have them a part of our special and would easily have them perform any events we do in the future.
We can't thank Hudson Heights Band enough for everything they've helped us with. Their patience, work ethic, and professionalism truly made our evening perfect. They are highly recommended and should be booked immediately from the first moment of them being seen live or any of their recordings.
Husdon Heights played our wedding this past weekend and they were off the charts INCREDIBLE! Mind-blowingly good. And our experience with them, from start to finish, could not have been more pleasant. Eden is communicative and simply a joy to work with.
We opted to have keyboard and fiddle for both the ceremony and cocktail hour. They learned classical versions of some of our favorite modern songs to accompany our walks down the aisle and pulled them off flawlessly, beautifully.
Then there was the reception: Hudson Heights was masterful in just about every musical genre you can think of. My wife and I have differing tastes in music and Hudson Heights was able to play pop, rock, motown, hip hop, oldies, soul, everything! Not only were they able to play it, they SLAYED it. They also took our many requests and learned them all to perfection. The dance floor was jam packed all night. They had us dancing our faces off, and then at some point in the night it turned into an epic rock concert. These guys could be selling out arenas across the country. The level of skill and musicianship, along with the passion, energy and artistry, was undeniable. And the way they built their setlist was intentional and brilliantly devised.
If music truly matters to you, choose Hudson Heights, and do not second guess yourself even for a fleeting moment. They made our party the best night of our lives. The drummer hits you with the filthiest fills you will ever hear. The keys-playing trumpeter (who also sings with a gritty rock edge!) is a tour-de-force. The guitarist, bassist and fiddle player were all virtuosic. The vocalists were versatile and beyond impressive.
Thank you, Hudson Heights. We are forever grateful to you for making our day even more special than we ever hoped possible.
Hudson Heights is the absolute BEST! We got married on 7/15/22 at The Breakers on the Ocean in Spring Lake, NJ and we hired Hudson Heights for the ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They were amazing during each aspect of our wedding. The sound was perfect, their music choice fit the mood for each part of the wedding, their versions of our song selections were outstanding and they kept the dance floor packed all night! We got compliments on the band all night, and for weeks after from our guests. The lead coordinator was punctual with each meeting and very detail-oriented helping us plan the perfect set list for our day. Thank you to the entire Hudson Heights Band!
WOW! Absolute amazing! Hudson Heights, led by Eden, is an absolute gem! They are so talented, professional and fun! Beautiful voices, amazing instrumental talent and truly joyful people to have on your special day. Hudson Height's music was the perfect mix for our wedding day and they did a great job for our first dances. We constantly hear compliments about our wedding band! They were very easy to work with before, during and after our wedding. I would recommend them 10000%.
Honestly, I cannot recommend the Hudson Heights Band enough. Eden was such a pleasure to work with and communicate with. The first question she asked was “what do you envision for your wedding”- my husband and I immediately answered “we just want this to be a huge party; everyone on the dance floor”- boy did they deliver. They nailed our first dance song- we needed it to be played in a specific tempo. They played “don’t stop me now” as our final song to close out the night.
We never wanted it to end. Do yourself a favor and hire this band- you’ll never regret it.
We just had Hudson Heights play for our wedding and we could not have been happier! They were amazing and kept our guests dancing all night. The band was so great that our guests were actually coming up to us during the wedding asking how we found them because they wanted to use the band for their own events. Eden was so great to work with and made the whole process easy. The band was also willing to learn any song that we requested. My husband and I would recommend this band to anyone!
Eden and Hudson Heights made our wedding perfect. Our guests filled the dance floor and did not leave it all night long. They NAILED our first dance song (lady gaga cover) Eden was so incredible to work with and out us totally at ease throughout the entire planning process. The band members are all friends and you can tell in their energy alone that they enjoy nothing more than performing together. We have received countless compliments on how great they were. Not to mention they were the first and only band we went to see. Blew us away. Don’t look any further. Let them make your wedding amazing.
We were so thrilled to have Hudson Heights perform at our wedding in August of 2021! We were another covid postponed wedding from 2020 but Hudson Heights helped us remain calm throughout it all. I met with Eden a few times prior to the big day - she helped calm my nerves and she was so easy to speak to. I’m a very casual person so I look for vendors I can chat with and be comfortable with - Hudson Heights is just that! They kept our dance floor filled all night - we couldn’t be happier having them!
Hudson Heights is very talented and energetic band! When we were looking for a band it was important to us that the singers can really sing and not pitchy. Hudson heights can really sing amazingly! The lead singer Eden is amazing! She is very talented.
Hudson Heights is an awesome band! They were very easy to work with, super high energy, and had the room dancing all night. They are very versatile and and played a wide range of music to keep guests of all ages engaged, and they sounded amazing. Leading up to the wedding, we were able to meet with the band and talk about the kind of music we liked, and they came up with the perfect playlist taking into account our input. I think a band can make or break a wedding, and Hudson Heights far exceeded our expectations! We are still getting complements from guests about how much they loved the band. I would highly recommend them for any event.
Hudson Heights was fantastic for our wedding! Eden and the band had such range of songs across so many keys and genres. They were very flexible when making the set list to make sure the songs accommodated the vibe we were going for. They were also flexible in the schedule as we decided what kind of flow we wanted. Hudson Heights had our guests dancing all night and we received rave reviews from all of our guests who said the band was so fabulous! We couldn't have been happier with how our music turned out for our wedding.
There's a reason 6 out of 6 (and now 7 out of 7) people have given Hudson Heights a perfect 5-star review. They absolutely carried our wedding. It's literally the day after our wedding, and I'm already writing them a review.
To start from the very beginning... can you just imagine hearing an instrumental version of "Only You Can Love Me This Way" from outside your ceremony as you watch your closest family and friends walk down the aisle before you?! Asking John to play the keyboard was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
When it came time for the reception, it was immediately clear that the band rehearsed for our wedding, and our wedding in particular. First and foremost, they allowed us to do a song for our guests, even preparing background vocals and accompaniment to beautifully complement my husband's and my performance. Later, as we were dancing our hearts out on the dance floor, I couldn't help but recognize that they were hitting every one of our requested genres we discussed in the meetings leading up to our wedding. This was all thanks to our event lead, Danny.
And the band could not have been more personable -- we thought it was so nice that Eden came over to our sweetheart table to say "hi" in between songs. Her voice is unbelievable (and props to Sean-David; the electric violin is beyond unique!).
Long story short, there's really no need to think twice when considering Hudson Heights. Our guests literally BEGGED them for an encore and could not find one opportunity throughout the whole night to sit down. If you're looking for a professional, high-energy band, look no further than Hudson Heights.
Hudson Heights provided music and entertainment for my New Jersey wedding on May 29th 2021 (the day after the mask mandate was lifted!!) Saying that Hudson Heights did a phenomenal job is truly an understatement!! To start, working with Hudson Heights and the hostess/lead vocalist, Eden was a pleasure! Eden helped me choose specialty songs for entrances, cake cutting, first dances, and other fun little acts. She was so professional and very responsive in the weeks leading up to the wedding. She helped us stay on schedule through the night. Her energy and enthusiasm had more than half of our 150 person crowd on the dance floor for the very first song!! And that’s when we knew that it was going to be a great night :) as we go through pictures and videos of the night, it is obviously that all of our guests had an amazing time at our wedding. The next morning, we hosted a brunch for our guests, and it was no surprise that most conversations mentioned the band and how amazing the entertainment was. Aside from keeping the whole crowd on the dance floor, the music was amazing!! I can honestly say that Hudson Heights really brought the fun, and our wedding would not have been as fun without the group! I highly recommend hiring the group for your wedding or event- they are worth every penny!!!!
When we were looking for music for our wedding, we knew that we wanted a band. We needed a band that could bridge the generational gap in music for our guests and keep the dance floor packed all night long. Hudson Heights Band not only delivered on that but went above and beyond and were the shining star in our perfect night! From the ceremony music (piano and keys) learning instrumental versions of songs near and dear to us to the 8 piece band learning some of our favorite songs to enhance the night, we are still receiving compliments on how awesome the band is! Eden , Danny, Jon, Sean-David, and the rest of the group were so responsive to us during the planning process and helping shape our playlist to keep the energy up and the party dancing. Words cannot do this band justice for how awesome they are, you just have the hear them for yourselves and then immediately book them! Thank you for making our wedding so incredible and for getting everyone at our wedding, from ages 15 to 80, to dance the night away. We would recommend them to anyone!
Working with Hudson Heights was by far the best part of our wedding planning process. Danny and Eden were so easy to work with, they were the perfect balance of fun and professional. Everything was executed perfectly on the big day, from the ceremony which included a beautiful string trio, to the very end of the reception where our guests were cheering for them to keep playing. Every bit of it was amazing and guests could not stop raving about them (and still are to this day). I would absolutely recommend working with them for any occasion, and hope I can find an excuse to work with them again myself!
Hudson Heights is amazing!!! I've (literally) followed this band since their debut event. I consider myself their biggest fan, so of course I wanted them to be our wedding band! From booking to our good-bye to them at the end of the night, my husband and I felt special every step of the way. They are great musicians AND entertainers! They had everyone on the dance floor - not to mention the biggest conga line I've ever been part of. I 100% recommend Hudson Heights!!!
Hudson Heights is the THE best local band I’ve seen live. Their covers are fresh and fun, and they know how to get the room dancing.
Hudson Heights brought a party! We were having so much fun dancing and singing because THEY were having fun playing music for us. The whole room fed off of their energy and it made the night truly special.
