Hi, I'm Nick Bryant! I am a singer-guitarist, and I've played professionally for nearly 10 years. I am the band manager of Velvet City Sound. From booking, to the send-off, and everything in between, expect nothing less than the best from VCS!

Wow. I knew Velvet City Sound was going to be good (referral from a friend), but I didn't expect them to be this good! They kept everyone dancing, showed up on time, and made everything stress free. Nick and the band were super professional and flexible! I had last minute changes and requests that they were happy to accommodate. If I could give 100 stars I would!

When working with Laura and Levon, I received absolute professionalism. They honestly made me feel like I was their top client. The first call I made to Laura, she was so warm and inviting. They were so responsive and very well informing with every question I asked (I asked ALOT). She was clear and concise when she ran through the cost of everything. When I wanted to make additions later on, she was so amazing with meeting my needs and informed me of the cost after the initial quote. Laura was so wonderful when it came to my music selection as well. She provided me with a list of songs and had no issues when I asked for songs outside of their selected list. I was absolutely blown out of the park with how they handled one of my specific requests. I requested our exit song to be dance forever by Chris Brown. To get the full vibe of the song and to make sure my needs were met, she went out of her way to contact our DJ and asked him to play a track with their cello & violin so it would come out beautifully, and it did! I am still receiving complements from our guests about the joyous music from our wedding ceremony. I was told that there were lots of happy tears in the room once the music started. They contributed to my dream destination wedding in a HUGE way! I can’t brag enough about this duo because they go above and beyond for their clients.

We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band “The Dickens”. This is the part of our wedding everyone is still talking about. They played such a variety that every age was able to enjoy. Not a single person was sitting at the tables while the Dickens were on the stage. They were very interactive with the crowd and even let the groom (a guitar player) get up there and jam out with them. This was such a fun addition to the wedding and we loved every minute of it!

Party On A Budget 
  • DJ
  • Starts at $800
  • Serves Shorter, AL

The concept here is that everyone should be able to enjoy professional, high quality musical entertainment at their wedding reception, party, or special occasion, even on a tight budget. Why pay as much as $1200 or more for a DJ from a big company when you can get the same quality entertainment for much less? That's where "Party On A Budget" comes in. I have professional sound equipment, years of experience, a large library of music, and plenty of fun ideas, just like the big company guys. The only difference is that I can provide it all for a lot less.
