The Barnstorm

ghly recommend the Barnstorm. On top of the amazing music, they light up the dance floor and interact with your guests, which makes it that much more memorable. And if you want specific songs, they'll learn it for you. Unbelievable group to work with.

ngaged, and turned our reception into an unforgettable party. So many of our friends and family are still talking about how amazing they are (and we got married about a month ago!). We look forward to our next opportunity to see them perform!

several new songs for me and my wife, which meant a lot to us and made the night that much more fun. And finally, they were extremely easy to work with leading up to the event. Couldn’t recommend these guys anymore!

ated the energy of a packed nightclub in Vegas. They learned several songs for us and nailed them all. I have never experienced a wedding band go to such great lengths before and during the event to make it a warm special night. I seriously can’t speak highly enough of these guys. I have 3 more daughters and Im booking them now before the price goes up 🤪. Every single person was floored by their performance. One lady in her 80’s turns to me and says “These guys are on fire”!  If you are considering a wedding band - you can’t go wrong. (Just don’t book them when I need them next)! Cliff Mendelson

atched the energy of our guests flawlessly and played all of our favorite songs. A highlight of the night was getting to crowd surf to Pink Pony Club! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience—the only downside was that our guests didn’t want them to stop playing!

care, professionalism, communication and attention to detail were unmatched. We knew we were in great hands from the start and any request we had they were able to accommodate without issue. Our expectations were exceeded beyond anything we could have imagined. The dance floor was filled all night, the energy was high and the talent was beyond. Their song lists were a blend of hits everyone enjoyed from all ages and the arrangement was perfect. We opted for the string quartet for our ceremony and their arrangement of our requests was perfect and beyond anything we could have asked for. We asked them to play a wedding song they didn’t have on their catalogue and they not only learned it for us but sent us an acoustic version a few weeks prior to our wedding so  that we could hear it and practice our first dance to it. It was absolutely perfect. I can be seen on our wedding videos saying to my husband “they’re so good!!” During our first dance. We were blown away and they were worth every penny and then some! We are so grateful we chose The Barnstorm for our wedding band- they made our perfect day what it was! 

hey played. From acoustic guitar during the ceremony, jazz at cocktail hour, and a full out rock concert at the reception, the Barnstorm do it all so well.  Take it from two newlyweds...you want the Barnstorm playing your wedding.  Christina and Michael 10/4/2025

irst song to the very last. They played every song we requested, including our wedding dance song, which meant so much to us. It made the whole night feel so personal and special. All our guests kept saying how amazing the band was, and we couldn’t agree more. They were super friendly, easy to work with, and just so much fun. You can really tell they love what they do. If you’re thinking about booking The Barnstorm, don’t even hesitate—they’ll make your wedding unforgettable!

ate New York celebration, and The Barnstorm absolutely delivered. From the start, Brooks was incredible to work with—clear, communicative, and so thoughtful. He even helped record our first dance song so we could practice with our dance choreographer in advance. We hired The Barnstorm for both an acoustic set during our ceremony and for the full reception, and they were phenomenal across the board. The light setup, the sheer talent of every musician, and the energy they brought to the room were the special sauce that made our wedding unforgettable. The dance floor was packed from the first song to the very last. The band interacted with our guests in such a fun, personal way—our niece Cara got to sing Love Story by Taylor Swift, and our Bruce Springsteen–superfan Eileen counted down to Born to Run! Our guests still tell us that their favorite part of the entire weekend was the band. We ended the night with an unexpected (and epic) crowd surf to Blink-182—truly the most memorable way to close out the day. Thank you, Barnstorm, for making our wedding the most incredible day of our lives. It simply wouldn’t have been the same without you. Hands down the best decision we made for our wedding was hiring The Barnstorm.

that was absolutely unmatched. The dance floor was packed all night and our guests are still talking about them months later. They’re insanely talented, wildly fun, and just so warm and genuine. You can tell they truly love what they do and they care deeply about making the night unforgettable, not just for your guests, but for you. And not to be dramatic, but the bridezilla in me definitely came out when it came to the playlist, however the band handled it with such kindness and professionalism. They actually listened to what we wanted, learned and performed 3 or 4 songs just for us, and completely nailed them. That meant so much to us. They made us feel like total rockstars, hyped the crowd like pros, and somehow made every moment feel both epic and personal. If you’re even thinking about hiring The Barnstorm, do it. You will not find a more fun, more talented, or more genuinely caring band. We love them so much and will be forever grateful they were part of our day. 

uld highly recommend them!

r seen - and we wholeheartedly agree. Part of what set them apart was their fresh, unique setlist. Every song was recognizable and kept the dance floor packed all night, but they managed to avoid the "same old same old" that seems to plague wedding bands. Their song choices felt thoughtful and exciting while still being crowd-pleasers. Beyond their incredible talent (the videos truly don't do them justice), the whole band is so kind, down-to-earth, and engaging. They seemed genuinely excited to be there and be part of our special day, not just going through the motions. They struck the perfect balance - incredibly talented without taking themselves too seriously. They got the crowd involved in really fun ways, including having one of our friends playing with the drummer for a good chunk of their set! Honestly, we went back and forth on whether we could justify the cost, but hiring The Barnstorm turned out to be the best decision we made for our wedding. Cannot recommend them highly enough. Definitely book them if you can!

ion. Brooks (and team) made it so easy to get a feel for the band, and we quickly knew they were our choice! Any time we had questions, and we had a lot, they were answered clearly and effectively, which really helped put us at ease. Planning everything else was stressful, but The Barnstorm’s communication and warmth really made us confident going into the day. The band was not only incredibly professional and organized but also open and fun to work with. They took the time to learn our first dance song and performed it beautifully, making that moment unforgettable. Every song they played absolutely crushed, and the party did not stop from the second they started. Classics? They rocked it. Songs that came out weeks before our wedding? Amazing. Some surprises that made everyone really lose it? Absolutely. The Barnstorm definitely didn’t sound like a “wedding band”; they were a full-blown concert experience for us, complete with JC jumping into the crowd getting everyone involved. The Barnstorm really did make our wedding day exceptional, and guests still talk about them to this day! The best recommendation I can say is that we have had multiple couples at our wedding ask us for their contact information for their own weddings, and without hesitation we’ve recommended The Barnstorm. Reach out; you absolutely won't regret it! I+F

ng at our venue, and you never would have known it; they sounded incredible and brought the house down. Their production team is top-notch, and even our venue coordinator was raving about how professional and easy they were to work with. On top of that, they went the extra mile and learned our first dance and parent songs just for us, performing them live—which meant the world. Add in their live music for our ceremony and cocktail hour, and it was the perfect soundtrack to the best day of our lives. If you want your wedding to feel like the best concert of your life, book them immediately. Our guests, even those who are musicians themselves and the ones that previously claimed they “don’t dance at weddings”, raved about how great they were.

emphasize just how many compliments we got about both. Consider us groupies for life. Beyond the night of, the band took the time to create actual relationships with us, and it made the party all the more special to feel like they were picking the songs specifically for us. We are so so grateful.

hey're having fun, and it's contagious. They were also great communicators ahead of time, and flexible with our space constraints. Their small ensemble did an amazing job with our ceremony music.

band really is the host of the whole event (which I did not even fully comprehend until the night of) and these guys are fun, upbeat and will match and up your vibe. People were sweaty dancing until the very end and begging for more.

lented and took our party to the next level! The Barnstorm is also fantastic to work with. They are clearly extremely passionate about what they do and go the extra mile to make your wedding amazing! The Barnstorm is perfect if you want a lively modern wedding band that plays everything from the classic to the latest hits and offers a truly personal warm experience from start to finish!

ven better on our wedding day than we expected. They were incredible, from the ceremony and cocktail hour all the way to the end of the night. During the reception, they were so interactive with our group and made our reception so much fun. We had a blast singing along with them and joining in. All of our guests had a great time dancing, and it was hard to get everyone to leave the dance floor at the end of the night! We loved having Barnstorm at our wedding. They were also super easy to communicate with, and were always willing to talk through any questions we had.

bout finding the right band for my wedding because ultimately we just wanted everyone to have a fun time. I had so much confidence in The Barnstorm after I spoke with them that I booked them right away. I always felt that we were in the right hands, and they made everything SO effortless for me. As a bride who was planning everything, knowing that I could leave the music and the energy up to them really helped to calm my nerves. They did not disappoint. They have an incredible production crew who really leveled up and incredible performers who are both talented and entertaining. We have people still commenting on our band, and we had people on the dance floor until the last possible moment. It was everything we could have wanted. If you’re looking for a way to decrease the stress on your wedding day, these are the guys (and girl!) for you! We only wish we could get married every year to keep the party going!

and rock hard. The first band that came to mind was The Barnstorm. My husband and I used to go see them when they played Hill Country in NYC, and we knew they'd be exactly our vibe - with all of the songs we grew up loving but still knowing plenty of the classics. It wasn't long before we reached out to Brooks and started coordinating. From start to finish they were incredible to work with - from allowing us to use their microphone for our ceremony, to great communication and transparency all of the way through the wedding planning months, to being one of the best aspects of the entire wedding, the Barnstorm was by far the best and easiest decision we made. As a cherry on top, they even learned Blitzkrieg Bop for my mother-in-law to transition from her mother-son dance to kicking off the party - something she'll remember forever. All we heard for weeks afterwards was how much fun they had at our wedding, how unbelievable the band was, and how we basically threw a concert wedding - not to mention the crush everyone had on the lead singer JR. We are now lifelong groupies and the only thing I can say is if you are still up in the air about who to book to play your wedding, look no further than the Barnstorm!

minute (even when it was pouring rain) about anything. Thanks to the guys for among our evening a dream come true. Susie and John

nt were unmatched compared to other wedding bands we have seen. Our guests had nothing but amazing things to say about the Barnstorm and we are so happy we are now apart of the Barnstorm family! IF YOU DON'T PICK THEM FOR YOUR WEDDING, YOU'RE MISSING OUT

eally made the wedding great. It's been 6 months and we still have friends and family asking us who our wedding band was. These past few years I've been to a lot of weddings, an okay DJ is better than a bad band but a great DJ isn't half as good as a great band and The Barnstorm truly are GREAT! I'd recommend them to absolutely everyone that's looking for a great band and a memorable wedding.

g, the dance floor was alive with our closest friends and family, all having the time of their lives. I’ve known Cameron, Hunter, JR, and Brooks since way back in 2008, catching their acoustic sets at Brother Jimmy’s on the Upper East Side. Even then, I knew I wanted them to play at my wedding someday, and they truly made that dream a reality. The Barnstorm brought so much warmth and intimacy to our ceremony by learning and playing the special songs we requested. Cameron’s instrumental version of "MMMBop" (yes, from Hanson!) and "You'll Never Walk Alone" for our family processional made the ceremony so personal and unique. And the reception? Pure joy from start to finish! Our “song” is "Simply the Best," and Cameron and JR worked together to blend the sweetness of the "Schitt’s Creek" version with Tina Turner’s iconic style—which made for an absolutely unforgettable first dance. They learned a rare Elvis tune for the dance with my dad, which meant the world to him, and several other songs that we requested, which really made our set list feel so customized and sentimental. The dance floor was alive all night, with The Barnstorm perfectly reading the room and keeping the energy high. From millennial favorites to timeless classics, they knew exactly how to captivate everyone. Our guests haven’t stopped raving about how incredible they were and how much fun they had! What truly sets The Barnstorm apart is their genuine connection with everyone in the room, all while making us feel like the stars of the night. They didn’t just play music; they crafted memories that we’ll cherish forever. We can’t thank them enough for making our wedding day the best day of our lives, and we’re already counting down the days until we can see them rock out in NYC again!

ey keep it going and when you think you can't dance anymore, they'll pull you back in for another solid 2 hours. Not to mention how far they traveled to party with us! I cannot tell you how much fun they made our wedding. Our friends and family are still talking about it. I am very fortunate to have known some of the members for years, and in addition to being one "h-e double hockey sticks" of a band, they're also the nicest people you'll meet. Trust me, the search is over. You're gonna have the best night.

leave the entire night. Their energy, vocals, and crowd work were unmatched. Guests are still telling us that this was the best band they’ve ever seen at a wedding. In addition to talented, the entire band was so incredibly nice, and Brooks was so easy to work with. We cannot wait until we have the opportunity to see / party with the Barnstorm again. If you are thinking of booking them for your wedding, please do it. You will not regret it.

ing with friends. From the first to the last song. the band brought the energy needed for an extremely fun wedding. The dance floor was packed all night and we had so many people coming up to us remarking on how awesome the band was. The new sax player was a great addition and absolutely crushed some Springsteen! I highly recommend getting this band for your wedding. They made our day so special.

RY guest on the dance floor as I did at our wedding, and it is all thanks to the Barnstorm for getting (and keeping) the party going! Banger after BANGER. Like a wedding mash pit. But safer. No stage dives. But you’ll want to 😜. Absolutely no regrets, greatest decision we made, hands down. Love em!!!

f the night! The team is very organized and professional, they take a huge amount of pride in what they do and it shows. They did a great job learning our first dance song and even made us a demo for us to practice with. Their execution was perfect. They did a great job emceeing and keeping the night flowing seamlessly. And during the dance sessions, they sounded great and brought so much energy. All of our guests made a point of telling us how much they liked the Barnstorm. A true highlight of our wedding celebration and could not recommend more strongly

n 2017 that one day I would get married and I wanted to recreate this wonderful feeling that I would get every Tuesday night. WELL, joke’s on me because I got that feeling and more. I do not even have words for the atmosphere that The Barnstorm created on our wedding day. Leading up to that day, Brooks was INCREDIBLY attentive to the hundreds of questions that I bombarded him with on a daily basis. He walked me through pricing, how the first dances would go, what kind of music gets played during dinner – every question came with an immediate follow up and a “how are you doing?” – completely above and beyond what a typical wedding band would provide. And that was before our wedding day even happened! The day of was indescribable. The atmosphere provided by The Barnstorm was absolutely electric and had every single person on the dance floor from 8 pm to 1130 pm. I genuinely feel like our wedding was one of the best concerts I have ever been to. The band is absolutely magnetic. To top it off about one week after our wedding, as we were reliving the day, I get a text message from a friend saying “we booked your wedding band!”. They are THAT freaking good. If you want to have the best night of your entire life PLEASE look no further than The Barnstorm.

I truly believe that keeping crowds excited and enthused is the key to creating an unforgettable wedding, one that will live a long time in the minds of those attending…. This is exactly what the Barnstorm encapsulates! From first conversations to the last song, they delivered beyond expectations. Not only did they completely kill it during the reception, they played at both our ceremony and cocktail hour….it was truly a full experience they delivered. Thank you Barnstorm for being a HUGE part of the best day of our lives!!!

they’d rock it but they were totally the talk of the wedding. Songs, vibes, enthusiasm, all of it. They are the best and I might have to get married 100 more times just to keep working with them!!!

rity. They delivered as we expected and the photos from our wedding party say it all. They are professional, fun and bring the energy and good vibes as everyone says. I didn’t leave the dance floor all night and they let me join them on the microphone for many party’s of the evening. So fun and not your traditional wedding band- book them and you won’t regret it one bit I promise!

and what they send you really don't even do them justice. The vibe and energy they bring is infectious to both avid dancers and shyer folks. We had friends who avoid the dance floor who couldn't help but inch there way up to the dance floor. They really create magic. If you are able to book them in time you will not be sorry and the relief of knowing you have stellar music & entertainment is the biggest weight lifted off your shoulders when wedding planning. We booked about a year and a half in advance...so get on it!!

" However, if you are looking to go beyond just "that was a lovely affair", and create a truly memorable experience for you and your guests, where everyone will leave remembering how incredible your wedding was, then The Barnstorm is the band you need to hire. From the very beginning, Brooks was very professional, responsive, accommodating, and easy to deal with. The band also coordinated with our venue before the wedding to make sure everything was in place. On the wedding day, the band provided acoustic guitar play during the ceremony, which was originally set up to be outside, but when it suddenly rained, they were able to quickly and seamlessly move all of their equipment to our tented location. The band also provided a great jazz trio for our cocktail hour which completely hit the mark. Now for the main event, the reception. You should know that you are not just getting an incredible band, but you are also getting concert-level production from the professional lighting and audio to the haze machines. Indeed, we felt like we were getting our own personal show. If something needed to be changed or adjusted last minute, they were incredibly reassuring that this was our day, they were here for us, and they would get it done and they did. These guys have a certain chemistry with each other and their passion and energy comes through and your guests will see it and feel it as JR is out on dance floor singing among you and your guests. The Barnstorm was a total hit at our wedding and everyone I spoke to at our event could not stop commenting on how great the band was. I heard quotes like, "where did you find these guys?!?", "these guys rock", and "do you think they would travel to play my wedding?". We also had guests that were googling The Barnstorm at the wedding to find out just who these rock stars were. The band even took a song request from me during their set and seamlessly worked it in as their next song. The Barnstorm will get your guests out on the floor dancing and they definitely bring the fun. Their website says "we are not heroes", but they were definitely our wedding heroes.

such an amazing time rocking out with them as did we. We stumbled across The Barnstorm as a recommendation from our Florist and we are so glad they had our wedding date open. Brooks was incredibly responsive during our early correspondence and throughout the time leading up to our wedding. This was super reassuring for us given how stressful it is to plan a wedding. We knew the entertainment would be taken care of and was one less thing to stress about. The Barnstorm has such an extensive set list that had something for everyone to rock out to. They were also able to learn a few songs for our dances and they absolutely crushed them. I would recommend The Barnstorm to anyone, any day. They are the best of the best and blow any other band/wedding entertainment out of the water.

nd at the time) so they literally made my dreams come true. Brooks is absolutely incredible to work with. He was super responsive and made the entire booking process seamless. Barnstorm absolutely crushed the entire night, from MC'ing to playing the best songs and keeping the crowd on the dance floor, it was an all around amazing experience. If you are thinking twice about booking Barnstorm, DO IT. Me and my husband are Barnstormies for life.

sets a "band" apart is when the members have chemistry with each other, when they have charisma, and when they make the musical experience unique. The Barnstorm strives to make every wedding they play unique to its bride, groom, and family. Wether that be learning a special song, how to do your intro/walk out, or getting crowd participation, the Barnstorm does all of that and more. We always felt comfortable that the Barnstorm were going to deliver on all of our unique, "quirky" requests. Can't say enough good things about these guys!

understand logistics of a wedding and are just super organized on the prep side of things. Once they hit that stage- they put on a killer show- you forget you're at a wedding and it feels more like a concert. Book these guys now!

tunning, the food was great and we got to party with 200 of our closest friends but the minute it was time to hit the dance floor, everyone knew it was on. With the perfect mix of music from old school rock to Hip hop, country to Spotify's weekly hits, The Barnstorm had everyone up and out of their seats unlike any other band I had ever seen. Time was flying by and everyone was having a blast with each song and mashup, not to mention their incredible light show, when all of a sudden the fire alarm in the hotel came on with 20 minutes left in the party. Our magical night was shaping up to have a terrible ending. Without missing a beat, Brooks, Cam, JR and Hunter came gliding through the lobby with acoustics in hand. Brooks, seeing both my wife and me visibly bummed out at what was going on, shot us a look and said the party must go on... followed by a wink and a finger gun. While fire alarms howled and first responders began flooding to the hotel, wedding guests and random hotel guests alike were serenaded to an impromptu acoustic jam session on the hotel's front porch (my wife even playing the trash can drums). After the mayhem, they extended our party for the time missed and The 'Storm headed back inside to close out the party. The magic was back and the dance floor was once again full. I can't say how much it meant for us to have The Barnstorm play our wedding. Your search is over. Reach out to them today and know that everyone at your wedding will be talking about how much fun they had for years to come!

m our guests has been how awesome our band was. If you want to have a super fun wedding, book The Barnstorm!

y wedding night, I wanted a full dance floor and the energy high. The Barnstorm had everyone out of their seat dancing the night away. Playing a wide variety of songs, the setlist transcended generations as both old and young guests lost their voices by the end of the night belting out the lyrics to their favorite songs. The band’s energy kept the crowd going all night, leaving wedding guests wanting more by the end of the celebration. The band was incredibly easy to work with, ensuring the bride & groom celebrated and danced to their favorite music, while seamlessly working with the venue, wedding planner, and other vendors to ensuring a flawless evening.

he band is amazing.” The Barnstorm also provided terrific acoustical music for the ceremony and cocktail hour. The band learned several songs that we requested, some just a month out from the event and nailed them. Working with Brooks was fun, easy and stress free. Brooks was quick to respond to any and all questions through voice or email and worked seamlessly with our planner at Castle Hill.
