Tyler was absolutely amazing to work with! He took the time to get to know me and my husband, helped us pick out the right music to fit the vibe of our wedding, and kept the party going all night long! Not only did he answer any and all questions we had, he even worked with my husband behind the scenes for a surprise song during the ceremony. He really cares about his clients and providing a truly unique experience for each unique couple. Nearly 2.5 years later we STILL have friends and family rave about how fun our reception was--all thanks to Tyler! We couldn't recommended him more!

Top Tier is live music at the highest level! Top Tier is a fun, high-energy variety band that has 5 lead vocalists to offer a diverse repertoire that spans over 7 decades and encompasses almost every style of music. The band was formed 14 years ago and consists of top notch, experienced musicians with a passion for performing. They can perform as a 5-piece, 6-piece (with sax), or an 8-piece (with a 3-piece horn section). There are over 200 fantastic reviews of Top Tier that have been posted online. So when you want live music at the highest level, look no further than Top Tier!

We got married 5/20/23. I started the search for a band early on as I knew I wanted one with experience, talent, and good reviews. After months of searching I finally stumbled upon Top Tier. I quickly could tell this was the band. Their promotional videos did a great job showcasing their talent and wide variety of music. From slow beautiful ceremony music to rocking reception jams- they truly can do it all…and very well! JD is the main contact for booking and was so helpful, professional and responsive throughout the process. Planning a wedding is stressing is stressful! JD asked what we wanted for our day and made it happen. Our dance floor was packed all night! I mentioned to JD that I’d love to get a conga line going- he picked the perfect song and even brought his guitar out on the dance floor! Needless to say we had an amazing conga line and evening thanks to Top Tier. If you’re searching for a quality band that is experienced and reliable I can’t recommend them enough!

Nashville Wedding Guitarist 

5.0

Nashville, TN
  • Solo performer

Simple. Elegant. Beautiful. If this is what you envision for your wedding, classical guitar may be exactly what you're looking for. Guitarist Rob Higginbotham brings a blend of virtuosic classical guitar repertoire and contemporary fingerstyle guitar to add that special touch to any occasion. He has been featured on NPR, performed with the Nashville Symphony and played over 60 weddings last year. With over 25 years of playing experience, you can be assured of a flawless performance and a treasured memory.

We hired Rob to play music before and during our outdoor wedding ceremony. We hired him as a soloist and he played beautiful classical guitar that was perfect for the event. I am aware that he also can provide duos or larger ensembles as needed. He also can provide jazzy reception music after the wedding. Nashville certainly has a lot of guitar players but classical guitar players with a robust repertoire can be hard to find.

Adam Clark & Derek Hughes created ‘The Nashville Wedding Band’ in Nashville TN to give their clients an experience of a lifetime. After 25 years of music city experience, performing and working together with some of the biggest names* in Country & Rock, this duo decided to take on a new and exciting journey of establishing a Nashville-based wedding band. With access to some of the best touring musicians and singers in the nation, they were able to compile a band unlike any other to take the wedding experience to the next level.

The Nashville Wedding Band was an absolute hit at our wedding! They had great communication leading up to the big day and were so easy to talk to, which put us at ease. This band is filled with professional musicians who have performed with top artists, and it really showed in their incredible performance. I've been to a lot of weddings, and the Nashville Wedding Band is hands down the best live music I've ever heard at a wedding or anywhere else. They were even kind enough to let my niece join them for a special song, which was a highlight of the night. With their amazing vocals, ability to play any song, and pure talent, the Nashville Wedding Band made our wedding reception an absolute blast from start to finish. I couldn't recommend them more highly!

Working with Dynamic Excitement was an absolute pleasure. Thomas had the dance floor full all night, was able to crowd read very well and provided them with all the hits they didn't know they needed. He was very easy to work with, very professional, thorough with his questionnaire that is provided to his clients, all of his wires were tied up and out of everyones way (something you don't know is important but it sure does make a difference), and was able to accommodate to a variety of age groups throughout the night. Dynamic Excitement also provided my client with uplighting which created a romantic ambiance to the entire venue space- which also created a beautiful background for the detail shots of the venue. All in all, Dynamic Excitement is a DJ company I see myself recommending to all of my clients.

Nathan Belt & The Buckles 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Nashville, TN

A respect of nostalgia with a modern twist, Nathan Belt & The Buckles’ pay homage to the classic twangy rock n’ roll you love. Influences of Merle Haggard-era country and Roy Orbison/Elvis Presley style vocals, this band’s sound is enjoyed by audiences both musically versed and new. Each have backed legendary artists such as Wanda Jackson, Billy Joe Shaver, Los Straitjackets, Chuck Mead (BR549), Garry Tallent (The E Street Band), Emmylou Harris and Billy Burnette to name a few. If you’re fortunate enough to experience their show live, you'll be met with an energetic set, a compelling desire to dance and their signature, sharp dressed style.

I have worked closely with Nathan for years at a venue in downtown Nashville (Acme Feed & Seed). During that time, he and his band have easily put on hundreds of shows with us. Aside from being one of the most respectful, professional, and quality musicians you could hope for, Nathan and his crew are wonderful people on the personal side, as well. They always show up early, stay late, and put their all into their shows, without fail. This kind of passion, dedication, and commitment to craft is unparalleled by any other artist I've ever worked with. Furthermore, their ability to cover a wide array of genres with a dynamic blend of covers and originals work well for any setting. You would be SEVERELY missing out if you don't book Nathan on any occassion requiring a need for live entertainment!

Awarded Best of Zola
We are so glad we used Second Song for our wedding! The whole process was super easy and whenever we had a question or wanted to update something (like add more uplights, which was a great addition btw) we always got a prompt and helpful reply. And our DJ Rob Goodmonson! We cannot thank him enough for the amazing work he did at our wedding! We loved his energy and all of his questions that he had for us during our phone call consultation. I in particular am very grateful that he was so willing to help me with a special song request which required mixing bits from two songs together for my Father-Daughter dance. He was more than up for the challenge and was so helpful with it! When it came to the actual wedding, he was so kind when introducing himself on our wedding day and did a beautiful job MCing. We wanted more minimal MC work and he nailed it perfectly! He was also super flexible with last minute announcement requests that we had. For example, we realized no one was noticing the anniversary cards we put out for signing at the dinner tables, so we asked him to make a little announcement about it and he did great doing that on the spot! Finally, the music all night was absolutely fantastic. He really listened to what we wanted and he delivered! The music felt very much like “us” and we had so much fun dancing all night long. Everyone kept talking about how great he was and several people said it was the best wedding music they have ever heard. If we ever need a DJ again, without a doubt, we will be hiring DJ Rob!

Cooper Union was the absolute BEST wedding band I have ever seen at a wedding (yes, I may be a little biased as it was my wedding, but this is also what all my friends and fam said as well!). Brennan played and sang several songs on the piano for the ceremony, and it really made the ceremony special. He took our special requests, singing everything from The Grateful Dead, to Jack Johnson, to John Legend. His voice is absolutely incredible. And he did all this in 45 degree weather, mind you! We had a 6-piece band for the reception, and our guests absolutely loved them! Everyone was dancing the entire time, and we had an absolute blast! They sounded amazing and had tons of energy (despite the freezing cold). I would definitely recommend that you book them for your wedding! I knew I wanted a live band for my wedding, and Cooper Union exceeded my expectations.
