The Lindsley Brothers Event Band 

5.0

Waco, TX
  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $1,000

Ever since we started playing shows we realized we loved fulfilling peoples requests. It gives us a lot of joy to see people dancing and singing their heart out to a song that we can provide. This is something that we can do for you! If you tell us your requests in advance we would love to give you those moments. We also do not only play but have a passion for entertainment and crowd participation and that always makes for an unforgettable night.

I met the The Lindsley Brothers while they were playing at a winery in Santa Barbara and my friends and I loved their set so much I begged them to travel to my wedding and play at our welcome dinner. They agreed and absolutely made the event. They have such a great set and really great vibe. They were so easy to work with and made sure they played music that we liked. I had multiple friends ask me for their contact information in the last couple of years to play at their weddings/events.

JJ did such a fantastic job at our wedding this June! 3 things really stood out about him! 1) Attentive JJ Really paid attention to what I wanted our wedding day and reception to look like. Everything went so smoothly on the day of because he had really paid attention and gone over every detail of the timeline I had typed up. He was so fun and energetic and really got the party going! He customized our playlist too so that all my favorite songs got played at the wedding. 2) Professional Even though he is definitely fun and outgoing, he was very professional in all his text messages and emails and phone calls. He is very personable and friendly, but sticks to what needs to be accomplished. I really appreciated that. 3) Available JJ gave me his cell phone number and email address. He responded to texts within minutes and was very prompt in answering my questions. I honestly didn't realize how important a DJ was for a wedding until I had seen a few go very wrong and get awkward because the DJ messed up the schedule...JJ was fantastic and the night flowed so well because of him! I highly recommend him to anyone who is needing a DJ! Thanks so much JJ! Aaron and I appreciate everything you did for us that day!

Uptown Drive 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $5,000
  • Serves Waco, TX

Our goal is to curate the perfect entertainment at every event to execute our client's vision from start to finish. Uptown Drive has a very diverse song catalog that is well suited to serve as the soundtrack to your wedding reception or to be featured at your corporate event. We also offer an amazing interactive (live band karaoke) element to our corporate shows which is a total hit! We love to highlight our musicianship while playing the best dance songs from the Motown / Soul eras all the way through the hits of the 80s, 90s, 2000s, and today’s top 40.

Wow! Wow! Wow! I am pretty much speechless because this band is THAT good. I first want to compliment, Greg Williams, the owner of Uptown Drive. From booking all the way through wedding day, he was nothing but responsive, respectful and a pleasure to work with. As for the reception, they made it what it was! I think what is incredible about them is they entertain everyone (not only those dancing on the dance floor) because every song is a TRUE performance. I am not lying when i say this, every time I have seen someone that attended my wedding, every one of them (young or old) comment on how great the band was. FYI I'm three months out from my wedding, so I've seen a lot of my guests since then. They played the right music while everyone was eating and visiting and knew exactly how to transition to dance floor time by doing a conga line. They let my husband and I get on stage and sing which we will remember and cherish forever. They came out into the crowd and let out our guest sing. They came out in the crown and danced with us! Me and some of my guests joke that we would like to have another wedding just so we can have them play again. I could absolutely not recommend this band anymore! Stop here and BOOK THEM!!! P.S. I have included some pics to show you how much of a good time me and all our guest were having. - AN EXTREMLY HAPPY BRIDE

I was blown away by the talent of the musicians, they really take their craft seriously. I requested a Roaring Twenties theme from Louis Pettinelli and they went above and beyond to make it happen. The singer Karlea was phenomenal and did an amazing job of keeping our guests engaged and entertained. The musicians were all courteous, professional, and exceptionally talented. They dressed appropriately for our wedding theme and many of the guests at the Hawthorne Hotel wanted to take pictures with Karlea in her Twenties attire. In addition to being a wonderful experience, they were also a great value for the price. These are top quality musicians and we paid a reasonable price for the band. I highly recommend this group for your wedding.

I love making the wedding a special event for the couple. My job is the dancefloor. I rate myself based on how many people stayed on the dancefloor and for how long. My clients will tell you that people stay on the dancefloor most of the night on my events. Because I do a lot of homework before every event in preparing all the music they selected. Making sure it can please all the generations, and which songs could I sing myself. I'm passionate about making your day the wildest party imaginable!

Goga was absolutely amazing! We had him perform for our ceremony, dinner, and first dance. Our guests could not stop talking about how great he was. He really made our reception special and memorable. The only regret we have is not having him perform longer! We will have him back for any future events.
