The Touchables

, to the point where our friends didn't stop dancing and even my west-side uncle (who also played drums in a wedding band when he was younger) wouldn't stop telling me how impressed he was with the band. Scott was a dream to work with - so easy and confident. They played a special rendition of our first dance song and edited it to make it more dance-able. We were always going to hire a band and yes, it was more money than a DJ, but we had an unforgettable night. The Touchables MADE IT - incredible singing (3 singers), scorching guitar solos, every song you would want at a wedding. Thank you Scott and the rest of the band!

ating, genuine, and in love with music and performing. (Read towards the bottom for cautionary tales!) My then-fiancee (now wife) and I found a show on their calendar we could attend (their calendar is publicly available and they're booked up consistently which says more than a thousand flashy marketing photos could convey!). Before the show we reached out to Scott to let him know we're interested in booking them, he held our wedding date (no cost!) and even asked if we had song requests for the night we'd be at their show. The bar we saw them play at (Strasse Haus) is a dive-y place that doesn't pay much (I know because I used to play in a cover band there regularly) -- which told me this band is in it for the MUSIC, not just the high paying gigs. The band was GREAT! Upon further inquiry with Scott, we discovered the band personnel never varies, so this band is consistent and cohesive. The group we saw that night would be the EXACT same group that would play our wedding Their prices were very reasonable. Scott was amenable and responsive throughout the many months of lead up to our event, and he was on-point with the day-of details, delivering on the plans we discussed. We hired the full band with brass and we have NO regrets. They have at least 3 people that sing and they're constantly harmonizing. Special shoutout to the female vocalist -- girl's got PIPES. I mentioned I used to play in a band myself -- before I could even ask, Scott insisted that I join the band onstage (for as little or as much as I wanted) to be part of the music on my wedding day. Scott let me play HIS GUITAR (so I didn't have to bring one), and he even had the guitar effect DIALED IN for the song I played. Talk about going above and beyond. As a guitar player myself, I do not hand over my guitars lightly to ANYONE, so that was a huge gesture. The cherry on top: the day after our wedding we're opening gifts and one of them is from The Toucables band!! Name a wedding vendor that gives the couple a gift! Now some cautionary tales.... I looked at LOTS of wedding bands and talked to several professional musicians in Cincinnati who importantly steered me AWAY from other 'wedding bands'/corporate bands: - Naked Karate Girls -- this band plays with a backing track! According to a reliable source, some of the band members are not even playing their instruments! This is an expensive karaoke dance troupe. - Bluewater kings -- very expensive, and they are NOT a consistent group of musicians i.e. you're unlikely to have the same band lineup arrive for your event as they appear in online photos. These types of corporate event bands are essentially temp agencies for musicians -- it's not a consistent lineup and they don't rehearse much if it all, so you're rolling the dice on quality of the music while paying top dollar! SEE YOUR BAND LIVE BEFORE HIRING -- JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE EXPENSIVE AND HAVE A NICE WEBSITE DOES NOT MEAN THEY'RE GOOD. IN FACT IT MAY BE A YELLOW FLAG.

e Haus. Scott was meticulous with the details for the wedding from the ceremony to the reception giving us great comfort in their abilities. Where they really shined was performing at the wedding! They rocked the night away, engaged with the audience, never took a break and played all my daughter and son-in-law's favorite songs! We highly recommend Scott and The Touchables! Go book them for your wedding! You will NOT be disappointed!

play at multiple weddings and I just knew they had to play at mine! You won't have to worry about having a lame, awkward, boring reception, where no one dances - with The Touchables, you will have the absolute best night of your life! I can't tell you how many guest's asked about the band and then couldn't stop raving about how they made the entire evening so FUN! They're communication is outstanding! Scott is absolutely hilarious and is so easy to work with. Get the full band and get ready to have them knock your wedding socks off! THANK YOU FOR THE BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE!

the band was. They were super interactive and played the best songs that had all age groups dancing. Our dance floor was full the whole night!! Scott was great to work with during the wedding planning process and was a huge help. We didn’t get a chance to listen to them live before the wedding since we do not live in Cincinnati but hopefully we get to see/hear them again sometime soon!! Definitely book The Touchables!

playing, they had everyone on their feet and dancing the night away. The energy they brought to the dance floor was infectious, and our guests couldn't stop talking about how much they loved them! If you're looking for a band that will take your event to the next level, look no further. Scott and the band are the real deal, and we can't recommend them highly enough. Thank you for making our wedding day so incredible!

ey were extremely prompt and detailed in their email communication. We had multiple meeting leading up to the event to make sure everyone was on the same page. Scott and his crew always showed up early/on time to everything. Our ceremony/reception required equipment to be set up in three different areas, but they had no trouble making sure everything was running smoothly. Scott kept us in the loop for the entire process. We were very impressed, and that was before the dancing even started. Once dinner was over and the party really started, they wasted no time getting everyone out of their seats and on to the dance floor. As musicians, they are extremely technically proficient. They even let myself and two of my groomsmen 'reunite' our high school band and play a song with them, which was a real highlight of the reception. My only regret is that we did not spring for their full package which included a brass section. If you are on the fence about which package to go with, go with the full brass section as we've seen them with the full band at other events and they've sounded amazing. But even if you're on a tighter budget and you pick one of their other packages, I promise you it'll be worth the money. Our guests could not stop talking about how much fun they had at our wedding and we owe that mostly to The Touchables. Thank you, Scott, and the rest of the band for making our wedding so memorable and fun. We will be coming to hang at Strasse Haus for your next gig!
