The Kristin Trotta Wedding Band

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $6,000
  • Serves Douglaston, NY

With powerful vocals and original arrangements The Kristin Trotta Wedding Band brings a unique and customized experience to your wedding. Kristin is equally at home belting Aretha blues as she is crooning Christina ballads and impresses with her vocal versatility. Uton’s powerful range and stage presence bring all the entertainment you could ask for. From a killer rhythm section to a stellar presentation, we promise to make your special day memorable and fun for all ages! Contact us here for more information.

Choosing Kristin as part of the live band for our wedding reception was one of the best vendor decisions my husband and I made. From the very beginning, Kristin was incredibly kind and easy to work with. She even learned 5 new songs for us! She learned songs for our first dance, father/daughter dance, mother/son dance, and even learned Taylor Swift’s “Love Story” for me, a huge Swiftie! Kristin performed a whole range of songs, from pop to rock to even some oldies that pleased my older relatives! Everyone at our wedding found a song to dance to by the end of the night. Our guests kept coming up to my husband and I just to say how much they loved the band, but notably, Kristin! Needless to say, Kristin absolutely rocked it and created some special moments that my husband and I will never forget! She came out into the crowd to dance and interact with my two young nieces (ages 4 and 2), who, in turn, instantly became part of the show. We cannot recommend Kristin Trotta and her Wedding Band more highly as a live band for your wedding day. They will for sure make your wedding one to remember!

I met Jamie while he was DJing at a venue in Manhattan many moons ago. I was immediately pleased with the music he chose and went up to the booth and we got to talking about music and art. He was so easy going and truly in tune with the beat of the venue. We kept in touch and I then went to several more of his venues where he was DJing with friends and also with my (now) husband. When we decided to get married and keep it really small our one must-have was excellent music because we love dancing but are not fans of standard wedding DJ music. I immediately contacted Jamie and on short notice he was able to schedule a meeting with us to discuss our needs. Jamie came prepared with a list of questions and helped us work through the different moods we wanted to set and organized the music choices. We gave him some ideas and he did the legwork of deciding what specific songs would lead into each of the unique parts of a wedding and reception (dancing, eating, more dancing, only the young people dancing, etc.). To this day my husband and I talk about how much fun we had at our wedding and how we were really able to make every piece of it ours - right down to the music that was not pulled off some Billboard chart but that truly reflected us and the people in our lives. In fact Jamie was so great the venue asked if he would be willing to come back and DJ some of their future events :)

Awarded Best of Zola
The Hook Club was by far the coolest musicians I was able to find in terms of having an NYC night out vibe, and not a typical "wedding" vibe. We had a bass and guitar duo for our cocktail hour. They were super nice and awesome musicians. It started raining an hour into our cocktails so we had to move inside, and the bassist switched to playing a piano so that we could continue the music inside. Everyone was so impressed by how multi-talented they were!! Loved them and wish we had them play music for more of our reception. Dan, the founder, as well as the rest of their staff were incredibly organized and attentive throughout the planning process. Highly recommend!!

Meet The Cool Rulers! A youthful, professional and world class dance band collective from Brooklyn, NY specializing in Motown, soul, funk, disco and more. Our videos and reviews speak for themselves. Made up of real friends with real musical chemistry and a true love and passion for the songs that we play, The Cool Rulers cater to clients seeking an alternative to your typical flashy top 40 event bands.

Awarded Best of Zola
How to begin to sing the praises of the best band there is? We’ll start with unsolicited reviews from our friends: “Would you be offended if I use your same band for my wedding? I feel like anything else would be a let down.” “What’s your band name? I have to follow them on Instagram.” “Pretty sure that was the best band I’ve seen in 20 years of weddings.” We had our wedding at the Prospect Park Boathouse, and by 20 minutes into the first set the band had amassed a crowd of passers-by who stopped to watch and listen from a nearby bridge and stayed all evening long. Logistically, The Cool Rulers made life easy. We had a number of special requests for our wedding and The Cool Rulers approved them without hesitation and executed them flawlessly. This included learning 3 new songs, one of which was to be sung by 2 of our friends. Charles & Co coordinated with our friends to send them a demo and arrange time for a quick rehearsal, all of which culminated in a “performance” that seemed as if it had been rehearsed for months. The even accommodated a specific request for how they were set up, leaving us an aisle to walk down and filling it in during a short break later in the evening. The Cool Rulers are immeasurably talented, and the perfect complement to that talent is their ability to set the tone, ride the energy, and deliver an absolutely perfect evening of music and dancing. We could not be happier and could not recommend them more highly. A
