The Fever was AWESOME! From the start, they were very easy to communicate with. Before we hired them, we met with Michele to chat - this meeting was a HUGE help to us in so many ways - she got us thinking about many pieces of the wedding puzzle..., and had great advice for us.
Once we hired them, Dave wound up being our point man and band leader for our event- The guy couldn't be nicer, and an amazing musician. Like our first meeting with Michele, Dave really listened to us, knew all the right questions to ask to get everything how we wanted it (which we didn't even know how exactly we wanted it! He helped us get there).
We did not want one of those wedding bands that does spot on covers of modern and classic hits - we wanted a band with personality, that could also do the kind of covers that fill the floor, but not stick to these 100% - We're also jam-band fans, so we were really happy to see that The Fever has some Grateful Dead and Phish in their repertoire. But really, no matter what music you’re a fan of I get the feeling they’re going to listen to you and get it how you want it.
I also really appreciated working with a band that was able to bring their own sound, lights, and help w playlists for the times when the band was not playing.
The actual music of the night was incredible – the band played a light set during dinner – nice jazz music but not too stuffy – some recognizable covers in there- it was perfect.
The dance party was awesome. They were able to perfectly read the crowd, bringing the energy up to… well, a fever, by the end of the night. The musicians were all very talented, and they were able to really jam a few of the songs we requested – I would totally go see them play on a Friday night!
We are so glad we chose The Fever, they were the perfect band for us!
