We hired Undercover for our wedding, and it was hands down one of the best decisions we made for our big day. We booked their 8 piece band, and from the incredible emcee to the powerhouse vocalists to the insanely talented musicians, they absolutely crushed it. The dance floor was packed all night long and the energy never dipped for a second.
They are true professionals who know exactly how to read a room, hype a crowd, and set the perfect tone for every moment of the night. One of our favorite parts was how seamlessly they blended songs together, no awkward pauses, just nonstop music and momentum. It honestly felt like having a DJ… but with the magic and excitement of live music.
We received SO many compliments from our guests about the band, and they truly elevated the entire reception experience. I know that years from now when people recall this event, they will be talking about the amazing live music!
George was phenomenal to work with from start to finish, super communicative, easy to reach, incredibly informative, and genuinely invested in making our night perfect. Him and his team took the time to understand our vision, our reception flow, first dance details, and all the key moments, and executed everything flawlessly.
They are worth every single penny. These musicians are unbelievably talented, professional, and fun, and they made our wedding reception completely unforgettable. If you’re considering live music for your event, stop looking and book them.
Couldn't recommend them enough. Thank you Undercover Live and team!

Hiring Undercover Live was, without a doubt, one of the best decisions we made for our wedding day. We are still riding the high from their performance!
From the initial inquiry all the way through to our wedding day, George's professionalism and responsiveness were truly outstanding. Wedding planning can be stressful, but George made the entire entertainment process seamless and enjoyable. He was an amazing partner to work with, always quick to answer questions and making sure every detail was handled perfectly.
The band’s performance on the night itself was phenomenal. They brought an energy that kept the dance floor packed from start to finish. We are constantly receiving compliments from our guests—people have been raving about how incredible the music was ever since our big day!
If you are looking for top-tier talent and a planning experience that is both professional and stress-free, look no further. We could not be more grateful to George and the band for making our reception a celebration we will never forget!!

Undercover Live is the absolute best band. We hired them for our wedding in August 2025, and they did an amazing job. Many people told us it was the best wedding entertainment they...
have seen. You can choose any number of musicians you want in the band. George, the lead, is very easy to get a hold of, and responds very quickly to email. They are so wonderful to work with. Their musical talents speak for themselves and you can see this on their website from other weddings and events they have done. They keep the party going all night! Nobody wanted to leave the dance floor. I am now the 4th friend in my friend group to use this band for our wedding entertainment! They also did an amazing job MCing all speeches and learned our wedding dance song perfectly. Thanks for an awesome wedding!

know was how thorough they would be in the leadup to our special day. They made sure that they learned all of our songs ahead of time. They listened to our vision of our wedding day and made sure to make it come to life. I received numerous compliments about how great they were. Everyone was on the dance floor. There's nothing better than having a band at your wedding. It's well worth the cost. If you're looking for a wedding band, I'd highly recommend working with George and Undercover Live Entertainment.

We truly cannot say enough great things about this band – they completely surpassed our expectations and created a wedding experience we’ll never forget. From start to finish, they...
were an absolute joy to work with: kind, professional, flexible, and so much fun. They took the time to learn the songs that were meaningful to us and performed them beautifully, which made everything feel so personal and special.
Not only are they incredibly talented musicians, but their energy is absolutely infectious. The dance floor was packed the entire night – we honestly didn’t want it to end! They knew exactly how to read the crowd and keep the momentum going with the perfect mix of songs. We’re still getting compliments from guests saying it was the best wedding band they’ve ever seen.
If you’re even thinking about hiring this band – do it. You’ll have the most incredibly fun time, and your guests will be talking about it! We feel so lucky to have had them as a part of our day!

BEST BAND EVER!!!
We hired this band for our 180 person wedding, and they were the highlight of the night! Seriously, the whole night everyone was dancing and coming up to us sayi...
ng how amazing they were. We had the 8 piece band, and they coordinated our ceremony and cocktail music as well, which was beautiful. Everything was perfect! Everyone was dancing the whole night! I 100% recommend going with Undercover Live.
And if you’re deciding between a band and a DJ, this band is definitely the way to go! The way they mix and match songs and flow right into the next, there is never a break in the action. It is truly the coolest thing ever.
On top of their incredible performance, George and the team were so easy and nice to coordinate with. They first invited us to watch them play at a local bar, and they comped us tickets. They noted every detail about our wedding and made it so easy to have them set up at the venue. The MC made everything flow, from the first dance to the speeches to rockin the night away. If you’re reading this review, I am so happy you found Undercover Live for your event, because you’re going to have an amazing time! Thank you George and team!

red!!! George was so easy to work with. We are from NYC and east coast Jewish weddings have a different flow, so he was happy to discuss our wants and needs to create the perfect evening. We explained that we wanted all of our guests surrounding the dance floor before our grand entrance so we could do our first dance, hora and then go immediately into the first dance set before dinner. Undercover brought the energy and there was not a still body until we sat for dinner! They created such a strong energy that kicked off the night and led all the way through the reception. They were also fantastic in reading the crowd and started off by playing generational favorites and as the night progressed played more songs geared towards my 30 year old crowd. They did such a fantastic job engaging the crowd and the dance floor was electric the entire night. My husband and I agree they are the best wedding band we’ve ever seen and multiple of our friends said the same to us. I couldn’t say enough amazing things. If you want your dance floor to be electric all night, this is the band for you!

s. They were simply amazing singing our favorite Motown era classics to today's hit songs. They brought so much energy we had folks dancing up a storm all evening long. Working with George and Ivy beforehand let us share our vision and share the key songs we would like played. They took that to the next level by building on our idea and delivering so much more. We have received so many compliments from our guests about their enjoyment of our choice to go with a live band over a DJ. And that the band was one of the best they had experienced. Their engagement with the crowd was well received and helped to keep the energy up all evening long.
We highly recommend checking them out for your next event.

rge and his team. They are incredible to work with, extremely flexible and patient, and genuinely kind people, not to mention exceptionally talented. Our dance floor was packed the entire time the band was out there - there was even dancing during the dinner set! They brought such an incredible amount of energy, talent and diversity, playing everything from the 50s to today. We continue to receive compliments six weeks after our wedding and I know multiple guests who are hoping to use them at future events. We had an absolutely exceptional team of vendors but the band is the most complimented of them all. My husband and I keep talking about finding an excuse for another party, just so we can have George and his team back! This band is 100% worth every penny we spent on them and I am so happy we chose a band as our predominant entertainment. I 10/10 recommend having a band elevate your wedding experience, and have zero hesitation recommending Undercover Live.

We've been to three weddings since ours and I didn't realize how important the band was until I compared our dance floor to those who have DJs. A band may be more expensive, but it...
is SO worth it. When we first started planning our wedding, this is the one thing my dad told us was worth splurging on. So we looked at a few different bands in the area. Undercover definitely had the best reviews and George was always quick to respond so we booked them about a year ago.
I highly recommend having Undercover Live be part of your upcoming event / wedding. They played excellent music for all ages. Our dance floor was full the entire night. I am still getting compliments a month later on how amazing our band was and how much fun guests had dancing all night long. Nobody remembers the expensive cake or amount of flowers you have - People definitely remember whether they were awkwardly standing around or belting out on the dance floor.
I am so glad that we had Undercover at our wedding - They made the whole night complete! Worth every penny - Would highly recommend. You won't regret it!

If I could give 10 stars I would!! Undercover Live was the first vendor I booked after we booked our date and venue and it was the absolute best decision. We booked them for our ce...
remony music (live guitarist), cocktail hour (jazz quartet), and reception (10 piece band). Guests were up and dancing before the dance floor was officially "open" which is ALWAYS a great sign. Worth EVERY last penny and looking back, I wish we had extended our reception so that we could have had more time with them on the dance floor. Our guests could not stop talking about how amazing the band was and we are still hearing about it weeks later. New hubs and I are already scheming on another event so that we can hire Undercover again!!
Leading up to the wedding, George was a dream to work with - I had a few song requests that were not part of their repertoire, which were happily accommodated. The band NAILED them and made my wedding "soundtrack" dreams came true. They easily accommodated other requests we made and ultimately blew us away with their on stage presence and flair. I knew hiring them would be a great decision and already had high expectations and they absolutely way beyond exceeded them all. THANK YOU George and team for making our wedding beyond special and the dance party we dreamed of!

They played every single request we had, nailed every single detail, even doing a certain version of a song we requested, and are just such absolute pros. They played everything from Earth Wind and Fire to Shania Twain to Blink 182 for us. Now we're just trying to figure out how we can throw another wedding just so that we can dance to them again...

George Loreto and the Undercover Live musicians are professional, talented, and worth every penny. When it comes to entertainment, they are truly expert...
s at getting people on the dance floor and keeping the vibes high!
George really puts in an effort to get to know his clients; he spent hours on the phone with us throughout the planning process to learn about our needs and find ways to enhance the flow of the wedding. Through his years of experience, he is able to offer the kind of guidance that only a seasoned industry professional can provide. We even had a few last-minute changes to music that George accommodated graciously.
The energy and passion this band brings is unlike anything I've ever seen in a wedding band. The music and sound were top quality and the vocalists could easily be on the radio. We felt like we were dancing the night away at our own private concert.
Looking back, we simply cannot imagine having worked with anyone else to provide us with such a special, tailored entertainment experience.

I never write reviews, but absolutely had to for Undercover Live. My wife and I got the 10-piece UCL band for our 225-person wedding back in August and could not have been happier....
They were extremely professional and easy to work with from the start and so accommodating to our needs. George called a few weeks before the wedding to get a sense of the vibe/energy level we wanted and allowed us to request songs off of their already very extensive playlist. We gave them broad guidelines for the vibes we wanted for the ceremony, dinner and dancing, told them we wanted to PARTY, but that we wanted to make sure guests of all ages would be on the dance floor. They truly CRUSHED the wedding from start to finish. They were so fun, extremely talented, set the perfect mood during dinner, and hyped the crowd when it was time to dance. They hopped in the crowd and sang with us, and had so much fun the entire night. Every single member of the band was so talented - we were truly blown away by how amazing they all were. People left our wedding raving about the band, especially the 4 singers, saying they were the most fun wedding band they had ever seen. We've already had multiple family members and friends request their contact information. UCL made our wedding the most special, fun, magical, beautiful, amazing night we could have ever dreamed of. Thank you Undercover Live - you all crushed it!!

We are so happy with our experience with Undercover Live! We booked the Jukebox Band for our wedding, and all of our guests were so impressed by their performance. My husband and I...
gave them our first dance song a little over 2 weeks before the big day, and even with some last minute changes they learned the full song and performed it even better than the original recording. Although we didn't get to hear a lot of the playlist we created for their breaks (to be fair we were a little behind our timeline due to dinner service taking longer than expected) they played virtually nonstop during the whole reception, which was beyond incredible and what we had expected. These musicians are so talented and helped our night flow perfectly. I highly recommend them for your event or special day, they were the life of the party!

My husband and I cannot say enough great things about Undercover Live, George and the rest of the band! We had a 10 piece band play at our wedding and a jazz trio at our cocktail ...
hour at the Rosewood in Santa Barbara for our 200 guests and the band was definitely one of the highlights of our wedding! It’s been a month since our wedding and people have not stopped raving about the band - we have even had multiple people reach out afterwards and ask for our band name for future use at other weddings! People were dancing the entire time, and George and team really read the entire room throughout. A special shoutout to the singers as well - they were incredibly good and, as alluded to above, our guests have not stopped raving about them since the wedding. We would absolutely recommend Undercover Live Entertainment for anyone looking to have a live band at their wedding or event!

UCL was the perfect wedding band. George is a gem to work with - very responsive, good suggestions when you ask but otherwise down to take care of everything. I totally get why all...
our other vendors recommend them (also love that those in the business think so highly of them). Nothing threw him off and everything was perfection - even down to making sure we had a mic for our officiant and for our friend who played violin for our ceremony. I made a Spotify HH playlist and they took care of the rest. But the the band themselves? Outstanding. They made it a PARTY. People are still raving about it 2 months later. They just nailed it. We had a blast, they sounded wonderful, and there were 100 unforgettable moments. I'm endlessly impressed and HIGHLY recommend.

Undercover Live played for our destination wedding in Oaxaca, Mexico. EVERYONE loved them and everyone was dancing the entire time. Young people, older people, family, friends... t...

We had so much fun at our wedding and honestly the band was 90% of making that happen! I am so thankful to have had Undercover Live at our wedding and would recommend them to anyone looking for a band for their wedding or event.

Undercover Live was spectacular! Our wedding was 100 attendees and they played every song like it was 10,000. They were consummate professionals and were, even so, kind to let me s...
ing Sweet Child of Mine with them. George absolutely shredded on the guitar, it was like we had Slash in the room but with a haircut!
The lead singer, I am unfortunately lapsing on her name at the moment. Was amazing, she also emeeced our wedding festivities, and it was so lovely to have someone do so, in such a sweet and professional fashion!
I think just about every member of the band sang lead for one song or several even the drummer! He sang all the high notes on Prince's "kiss".
Seriously, I could go on and on but they made the booking processes incredibly easy and simple custom tailored to your wedding or event needs. They just totally blew our socks off for the performance. We had easily 5 guests ask for their name so they could book them as well.
I cannot recommend them enough!

We hired Undercover for our 200 person wedding in October of 2021 (after moving it from May of 2021, which they were gracious with and accommodating), and it's the best decision we...
ever made! The band is super professional and learned many songs for us that we wanted incorporated. We had a two-piece for our ceremony that people absolutely loved and still rave about. The saxophone really set the mood! The two-piece played through cocktail hour and provided all sound needs. The 7-piece band played for our reception and was amazing! They really made our wedding memorable for all the guests and had everyone up dancing. Thank you Undercover! We wish we could get married again just to do it all over! :)

We are so grateful to have had Undercover Live (7 piece) perform at our wedding. It has been over 2 months and our guests are still talking non-stop about how incredible they were....
Due to covid we were only able to watch videos of the band online and were slightly nervous headed into our wedding. George stepped us through the entire process and made us feel incredibly comfortable along the way.
The band was timely, professional, and greatly exceeded even our highest expectations. Before our grand entrance (and dinner) we were surprised to see all of our guests already on the dance floor having an amazing time. The only time the dancing stopped was during dinner. I can't say enough positive things about this band. Just book them and you won't regret it for even a second!!

12/10 would recommend Undercover Live! They came highly recommended from a friend of ours who saw them at another wedding. We went to check them out at the sand piper in Laguna b...
each and we’re blown away by the talent and professionalism. Not only are they extremely talented and engaging for the crowd, they have a huge library of songs and will learn songs also if needed! This was by far the most memorable part of the wedding for us and guests alike. We are so happy we found them and made the decision to go with a live band!
