We contracted The Band Etc. for our private July 4th event and they did not disappoint! Musical selection was well rounded and perfect for our crowd which consisted of all age ranges. From set up to tear down and all areas in between- they were the ultimate professionals in all aspects!! Highly recommend them and we will be contracting them again for future events.

Couldn't of asked for a better
band for my Wedding day. That
is now their third wedding
they've done in my family, and
they have done a phenomenal
job each and every time. They
were truly the only part of my
wedding that I was not
stressed out about. Great
communication, and they
made the process very easy.
But the most important part is
that they literally killed it. Great
job,
Would highly recommend!
Thanks again

If you are looking for a band, look no further than the band etc!!! We made the best decision in hiring them for our Indianapolis wedding this past September. Both Larry and Darren went above and beyond and made our wedding day a night to remember. They were so easy to work with and answered all my questions. Our venue was split level and they were so accommodating and our guests were never without their talent.
We hired them to play at our ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and reception. They helped us customize our ceremony music and helped curated the most perfect playlist. They helped transform our ceremony into the most beautiful and romantic space. They even learned new songs as we requested so more modern "hits" for our ceremony music. Our guests are still telling us it was the most beautiful music they have heard at a wedding ceremony.
Next they entertained all our guests at cocktail hour and mc'd dinner. They were so helpful at keeping the event on track and helped move all our guest out of their seats and on to the dance floor. Once people were on the dance floor they never left!
Even months after our wedding, our guests have said they were the best band they have seen at a wedding. If we could give more than 5 stars, we definitely would! We highly recommend the band etc. for any event!

Though we were married in Indianapolis, we live out of state, and so we booked The Band Etc. and Encore Entertainment for our wedding sight unseen. I am SO glad that we did, because they were incredible. Darren and Larry were friendly and easy to communicate with. They were able to accommodate all our requests, even learning a few songs for our ceremony and reception. And the performance--wow! The piano for our processional was so moving, the jazz standards set the tone for the cocktail hour, and the band killed it during the reception. The dance floor was packed all night and multiple guests said it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding. The live flute solo during Toto's "Africa" blew everyone away. Definitely hire them for your next event--you won't be disappointed!

The one thing we kept hearing over and over again after our wedding was about how awesome the band was! Even though we didn't have much of a chance to enjoy the music because we were too busy visiting with people, all of our guests loved the music. It certainly made for a great party! Definitely worth the investment over a DJ. They were AWESOME!
