Steve and his band were INCREDIBLE at our wedding. They were phenomenal at feeling out the energy, keeping the energy up when everyone was on the dance floor, and just playing bang...
ers that our guests of all ages were able to sing to. Truly the classics but enough variety that it wasn’t always overly played songs. Our guests were chanting “one more song” at the end. Before the wedding Steve was so kind and responsive, working with us to make sure he knew the schedule precisely plus the vibe we were going for. We have been raving about them for weeks after the wedding. I hope we have some other opportunity to have them again, but I would highly recommend having Steve and co. make your event memorable. Thank you guys!!

equests - was phenomenal. Everyone commented after our wedding about how much they loved the music. The ease of having them stay the entire day - from the start of the ceremony through the last song at the reception - was incredible. They matched our energy perfectly. They are truly talented and absolutely wonderful people to work with. Could not recommend them more highly!!

T.L. Holloway was the perfect band for our June garden wedding. Steve, John, Peter, and Dylan are fantastic people, extraordinary musicians, and organized planners.
These four s...
howed off their versatility and stamina by playing throughout our whole wedding day — from ceremony music with custom renditions of some of our favorite folk songs, through the cocktail hour and dinner with smooth jazz and Sinatra, and closing out the night with faster jazz mixed with classic American and contemporary tunes to keep everyone dancing.
They graciously provided sound equipment for our outdoor ceremony, and Steve artfully handled wedding party introductions during the reception as well as various announcements. Throughout the night we noticed them checking their sound from various locations — that attention to detail and care typified our experience, from our first planning call until their last song.
They made everything easy for us, were extremely generous with their time during planning, and their renditions of songs we selected were beyond what we imagined was possible.
Our guests (and us!) were simply enamored! As lovers of jazz and classic American tunes (but not necessarily dancing), these guys had us and our guests dancing all night. They matched our style and energy level perfectly. We received countless guest compliments on their behalf, though the credit is all theirs. Whenever we think back on our wedding day, their music will always be a cherished part of it!
We can’t recommend enough — or thank enough — T.L. Holloway.

We couldn't be more happy that we booked T.L. Holloway for our special day! Right from the start they were easy to work with and truly gave our Roaring Twenties themed wedding that...
speakeasy feel. For the ceremony, Steve helped us craft a nice selection of acoustic and vocal pieces and John helped fulfill last minute equipment requests the week of our wedding. Steve also did all the MC duties. They custom arranged several songs for our reception, from Thomas Rhett to John Mayer to Daft Punk, which all sounded amazing! Just when we thought the party was over T.L. Holloway even gave us an encore!
Terrific job. Made a wonderful wedding even better. See you at our anniversary! Thanks a million!
This band was fantastic!! We worked with Steve, the band leader, for the most part. He was organized, efficient, helpful, and responsive. We traded emails constantly, amended the c...
ontract mutliple times, and Steve was always flexible, friendly, and professional. T.L. Holloway custom-arranged FIVE songs for us (which sounded amazing!), attended our rehearsal the day before the wedding to go over the timing, and even added two additional musicians to the ceremony at no extra cost!! We loved working with them and only wish we could have heard more of them!

Steve and John are a piano/drums/vocals jazz duo and their music perfectly complemented our wedding events. They take requests and did a couple special arrangements for our ceremony procession/recession. They were very professional, talented, and overall great guys to work with!
