Just wanted to give a resounding round of applause for The A-Town A-List. They were incredible. Their customer service and attention to detail were amazing. Their performance was amazing. Their kindness and personable nature with the vendors and with the bride and groom were amazing. A-Town is my new favorite band! I want to work with them again -- and next time, add some horns!! :)

At an A-Town party, you’ll have more fun in a few hours than you’ve had in years. Playing amazing events all over the Southeast and around the entire country since a 2010 debut, The A-Town A-List is a carefully curated combination of performers with impressive musical, vocal, dance and theatre experience. With resumes that include performances alongside the likes of Bruce Springsteen, The Black-Eyed Peas, and Stevie Wonder, the band members each bring to the stage a combination of unique talents. Together, they form a magnetic energy that will entice every partygoer to the dance floor. A-Town A-List performances are designed to build momentum and end with a bang. With intuitive timing honed through years of on-stage experience, these performers are more than just musical artists; they are experience artists. The band knows exactly when to evoke just the right tune to keep the party going strong: from timeless classics to modern hits, from groovin’ funk to soulful, slow-burning ballads. And all three singers’ performance chemistry is infectious, evoking the emotional delivery of nearly every fan-favorite of the past 60 years ...from Bruno Mars to Frank Sinatra, and from the Beatles to Katy Perry and Beyonce. On a personal level, the performers in The A-Town A-List know they’re lucky to celebrate life’s brightest moments with their clients.

The band did a fantastic job! We had lots of guests tell us the band was amazing and some asked where we found you guys. Overall wonderful voices, music, and entertainment! We also appreciated the great communication and direction you gave us and Gina, our wedding planner. We will definitely leave a great review on The Knot. Cheers, Carly Savage Russ

Everyone and I mean everyone had a blast and we all danced for 2 1/2 hours straight. In fact our guests asked for an encore which they graciously provided. I hope they enjoyed working our wedding as much as we enjoyed having them perform. I most certainly would recommend them as I am sure our wedding planning coordinators would as well. Please pass onto the band members how we so enjoyed their music...they were fantastic... Joy (mother of the bride)

I had high expectations given the reviews of the band and their resume but we were blown away with their performance, showmanship and musical talent. They read the crowd and this was without a doubt the best band I’ve ever heard at a wedding, and that is saying a lot. So many of our guests echoed our feelings….the best band ever! Please let them know how lucky we felt to have them perform at our daughter’s wedding. The band can make or break an event and The A Town A List helped make Saturday night magical for our family. Thank you, Kathy Gordon

Everyone from the band was so personable and the music was amazing. You all should really showcase Jordan rapping in the promo video, that was an AWESOME surprise to hear a powerhouse singer that also happens to be a great rapper! Such a great experience, we’ll always cherish those memories! Arian

It’s really hard to express just how great they were! The music was fantastic, song choices were perfect, and they kept such a great party going the whole evening. The dance floor never cleared at all. There was never a song where people stopped dancing! And they were great to work with. They had wonderful attitudes, were easy going with the schedule and just wanted all of us to enjoy ourselves… and we did! SO MUCH FUN! We’ll be sure to pass along their name and your contact information. You may hear from some of our friends - everyone kept asking me the name of the band and saying how great they were!! Thank you for connecting us with them! Best, Sharon
From: Patti Davis Date: Tue, May 29, 2018 at 8:33 PM Subject: Hello!! To: Ryan Marston Cc: Andy Jaspen Hi Ryan and Andy, I wanted to check in with you and let you know what a fabulous time everyone had at the wedding last night. It was crowded, warm and humid, but no one cared!! ….. thanks to the energy and positive attitudes of the band members of A-Town A-List. After 39 years, hundreds of events and countless bands, they could not have been more enjoyable to work with. Talent is one thing, (no lacking there), but combined with a great attitude it makes for a class act. Graylyn is a unique, but challenging venue for any band, and I heard not one complaint from any of the members and sensed nothing but cooperation, teamwork and intent to leave only the best impression on me and everyone in attendance. James the lead singer could not have been more kind, patient and respectful and I know it was a long day for them, so I hope they returned home safely with only the best memories of their time here in Winston-Salem. The band packed up quickly and I just wish I could have thanked them again. So, please share my sentiments. What a great night!! And thank you for all your help, too!! It has been a pleasure. And Andy led the way with our contract and it couldn’t have turned out any better. Always the best to everyone, Patti Patti Davis Weddings

A friend told me the serving staff from the reception was still talking about them at the brunch on Sunday. They were a gigantic hit. GREAT JOB!!!! Thanks for making the reception so memorable.

So sorry we did not have a chance to connect with the band directly and thank them for their brilliant performance on Saturday. I wish I could go back in time and hug each and every one of them...too frazzled during our departure! We were SO impressed and we had the most amazing time. The number of times we have since heard a version of "HOW did you find that band? They were SO AWESOME!" ...cannot begin to count. They crushed it and we could not have been more pleased. We literally have zero complaints. We were so pumped when they orchestrated that little dance off between two of our crazy friends...definitely top 5 memory of the evening. I just wish we could do it all again. Please do pass along our gratitude...words cannot do justice just how appreciative we are of their talents, energy and overall performance. We love you guys!!! Recommending y'all to everyone we know! Kindly, Gillian

The A-Town folks were absolutely incredible, we couldn't be happier! 15 out of 10. Our only regret is that we can't book them every weekend. We truly enjoyed hanging out with them and were so honored to have them be a part of our wedding ceremony. Please pass along our sincere heartfelt thanks to the band. A few folks who attended mentioned that they may be interested in hiring them for a future event, we'll definitely pass along your info if they ask us. Please also let us know if there's somewhere we can leave you all an extremely positive review in a public forum. Thanks again for all of your help!! Best, Marsden

I had a wonderful time at the wedding and A-Town A-List was phenomenal. I think they did a great job catering to the event and having nothing but good things to say. I think everyone else enjoyed them as well. If we have any friends who are looking for a bank in the area in the future, we will be sure to recommend them. They were a delight to work with and maybe we will hire them again down the road for another event of ours. Thanks for your best wishes and thank you again for all of your help. Everything ran smoothly and that is all we could ask for. You really helped make our day special. Kind Regards, Robbie & Aimee

The Band was OUTSTANDING AND THE HIT OF THE EVENT! The guys were great to work with and the music was spot on! You should ask them about the Shimmy / Shake contest with the bridesmaids! I am not a social media guy so I will leave those comments for the Bride and Groom. As for the mother and father of the bride.....we could not be happier with the performance and support from you and the band. I believe we will have some professional shots available for you once we get things back from the photographer. Best regards, Stephen Hoke

From: Wayne Luke Date: Wed, Jul 12, 2017 at 1:28 PM Subject: Thank you! To: beth@samhill Hi Beth: Thanks for your follow-up regarding A Town A List and their performance at Caroline's wedding. We had a ball and everyone in the band was great. When we got way behind on the Day's event timeline, they adjusted beautifully and played almost a solid two hours straight without a break. They interacted beautifully with the crowd, kept everyone excited and enthused, and seemed to enjoy playing the music just as much as we enjoyed dancing and listening to it. In fact, a few of us who have now been to multiple events where A Town A List has played, are considering becoming the "Dead Head" equivalent of groupies who simply follow these guys around from venue to venue. I made it a point to personally thank every member of the band, as well as their support team, for such a great party honoring my daughter Caroline. Come to think of it, they might not have appreciated the sweaty Father of the Bride giving each of them a big thank you hug, but I did it anyway. I only expect my daughter to get married once and these talented musicians and entertainers made it a perfect celebration for everyone who attended. Please let them know how appreciative I am of their talent, their engaging style, and their professionalism. Many thanks. Wayne Luke

From: Jessica Eicken Date: Tue, Feb 28, 2017 at 8:57 PM Subject: Re: The A-Town A-List To: "Beth @ Sam Hill Beth, So for the delayed response. Let's just say its been a little difficult to get back into my daily routines since our wedding weekend. A-Town A-List was out of this world amazing! They had the dance floor packed even before salads were served. Jason and I will never forget eating our salads while being surrounded by our family/friends dancing around us. Not only did they keep the dance floor packed, their energy and talent surpassed all of our expectations. Over and over again we heard that they were "THE BEST wedding band" anyone has ever experienced. Your team did a wonderful job arranging all the details. Thank you again! Jess
---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Arthur Nevid Date: Mon, Nov 14, 2016 at 2:21 PM Subject: A-Town A-List Let me just say that after the first 4-5 people that come up to you, in all sincerity, to tell you that the band is great… best I have ever seen at a wedding… get me their card, well you sort of run out of things to say other than thanks, I agree. But when it becomes almost everyone one who attended that is saying that, well that is quite a statement. ATAL was beyond a hit – they made the party – they were stupendous. We knew that the musicianship would be top notch (although was even better live, and the guitar player blew people away especially when doing the Stones), but what can’t come through on video are the personalities and the chemistry of every member of the group. The kids wanted to invite them all to the after party just to hang but it was already late and I knew they had a long drive ahead! I can’t tell you how grateful I am that you all learned an extra new song – Into the Mystic going into the couple’s favorite song of all time, DITD, was the tone setter for the evening. Annie, I kid you not when saying that the dance floor was packed from beginning until the end at 1 AM other than for mandatory breaks. Someone commented to me that at one point they looked around from the dance floor and swore that not a person was sitting. Another person commented that they had never seen the floor packed at the very end of a party, that usually it starts dwindling, but not here. Others marveled at the variety of the music selection and how each was pitch perfect. And about a dozen people came up to me after and the next day to tell me, unequivocally, that this was the best Hora they have ever seen (which was a specific request of mine which I appreciate you guy taking to heart)! You need two things for a great party: a great crowd and a great band – nothing else matters. We were so fortunate to have them both. Please extend our heartfelt thanks and admiration to Genevieve, Dustin, James and the rest (I apologize I can’t remember the names). Feel free to use us as a referral at any time.

I honestly CANNOT say ENOUGH WONDERFUL AMAZING things about the band!! Like I wish we were friends with all of them and could hang out, they are so fun, cool, talented, lively, and they kept people dancing the whole night through. Just when we thought it couldn't get better they would play something else and mix it up and seriously no ONE wanted to leave the dance floor!! They were INCREDIBLE!!! And the best decision we made the whole wedding (outside our venue and planning team)!! Our guests have not stopped talking about how amazing and fun and how they were the best wedding band they have ever heard (which is why we picked them of course; duh; haha). Nick and I are praying we keep up our hard work and careers up so we'll have another excuse to throw another massive party/event and invite these guys back to play at it!!! Seriously. The band was perfection, the night was perfection!! We're so thankful we found them and locked them down for our big day!!!

On a scale of 1 to 10, they were a 23 the bride (my daughter said) as I heard her raving to her friends. We are so thankful to our awesome planner Sheila Camp Motley for finding the band for us. Thanks a million!!!! Way beyond what we had hoped or dreamed the band would be. Tricia Brams (ie The mom)

From: Kathy Cotton Date: Sat, Nov 28, 2015 at 11:11 AM Subject: Re: The A-Town A-List To: "Andy @ Sam Hill Entertainment" Hi Andy & Annie, A-Town A-List was simply amazing at Elise & Ethan's wedding in September We could not have asked for a more talented, professional team to perform at their wedding. As promised, they moved the crowd, sang spectacularly, and delivered a performance unmatched from any other wedding we have been to. We are nearly 3 months later and our guests are still raving about the band. Thanksgiving day was the first time since the wedding we had an opportunity to see some of the people who attended the reception. So many of our relatives and friends are still talking about how much fun they had. In the words of our videographer, "A-Town blew off the roof of the elegant country club!" Please extend our thanks to the band members and to Annie for their hard work and fantastic performance. They are a very special people. I loved how they came onto the floor with everyone. I sure hope we can have them perform at more family weddings. All my best, Kathy Cotton (mother of the bride)

The band was hands down the best part of the reception, which is just the way I wanted it. Guest after guest commented on how awesome the band was. They were all very sweet too. In all the craziness, my Husband and I did not get to dance much. My Husband asked the band for another last dance and they were nice enough to deliver. They even took the time to learn the song for my grandparents, When Irish Eyes are Smiling, and totally nailed it. The process was so easy and everything turned out perfect! I hope to have my vendor reviews out soon so everyone else knows how amazing my experience was too J Thanks Again, Blair

Hi Annie, Mike, Please know that this email is not being written while I am on a "wedding high." I thought about the event this morning and received feedback from many of the guests at the brunch; the consensus is that the band could not have been better. They were polite, enthusiastic, and respectful of the schedule. But what had everyone talking is how good they were! Terrific musicians that were clearly having a great time. Their enthusiasm was infectious. The dance floor was packed. The band played appropriate songs at the appropriate time in such a way that felt spontaneous. They learned "Born to Run" for the event and killed it! What really sealed the deal for me was my interaction with the band's manager at the end of the night. He was so nice and congratulatory despite a very long day of travel and performing. The entire band just seemed happy to be there and that went a long long way. You guys have a top notch operation and I will enthusiastically recommend you to anyone I know that needs a band in the southeast. These guys are worth every penny! Thank you! Adam

We have been trying to catch up after returning from cloud nine and our "mini-moon" at Keswick. What an incredible weekend and last Friday was truly the best day of our lives! A-Town was beyond incredible. WOW. They rocked it! They worked with us and with our planner very well. I personally spent some time with two of the singers the day of the wedding, and they couldn't have been more genuinely excited to be there and they really catered their sets to our crowd. They (and the rest of the band/crew) are truly talented and every bit of what true professionalism is all about. We were so very lucky to have been able to book them. Thank you for making that happen. We received SO many compliments from our guests and one even mentioned having A-Town play at their daughter's wedding in 2016 in the NY/Connecticut area. I will need to confirm they are serious about it and if so, will certainly connect you with them if that is OK. Thanks again for everything. Please let me know if you need anything else from me. Best, Grant

We were so happy with the A-Town A-List. Here is a copy of the letter which I wrote to Annie from A-Town A-List yesterday. I think this says it all.... Dear Annie, How can we begin to say thanks for the most FABULOUS night! A-Town A-List blew the roof off of every dream and expectation we had. Phenomenal, Fantastic, Exciting, Warm, Wonderful, Electric, Endearing, and perfect in every way is how we would describe their performance. We have heard the words "That Band Was Amazing" from every single one of our guests (and many have repeated it to us more than once)! We were amazed at how quickly and expertly the band assessed our crowd and then put together an evening that matched their enthusiasm and then took that enthusiasm up to unimaginable levels. From ages 8 to 80 everyone was on the dance floor, everyone was smiling and everyone was having the time of their life! The Hora was so high spirited and exactly what the bride and groom wanted. The slow dance numbers had tremendous soul and the dance numbers rocked the house!!! We loved each and every member of the band and cannot thank them enough for their energy and their seemingly effortless ability to connect our friends and family. We were so impressed with their musical abilities, their dancing prowess, their huge smiles, and their genuine warmth. We could not envision or imagine a more perfect band for our son's wedding celebration. Truly, the greatest gift you have given us, is that you have helped us bring joy and create memories for our family and friends that will last for a very long time to come. We are BEYOND THANKFUL. Please extend one more thank you to every member of the A-Town A-List team from us. We hope we are fortunate enough to have the opportunity to spend another evening with the band at a future event. Stacey and Ray Thal

They even played "Whip and Nae Nae" because the six year old ring bearer requested it and it brought down the house. The hashtag was "#thrillerwedding" and they did the Thriller Dance with them. We also had a random dance set after first course because well the guests couldn't help but dance. HUGE HIT! Laura Ritchie Events in the City

We were absolutely thrilled with the A-Town A-List! It has been over 3 months from since our wedding and we are still receiving compliments on the Band. Without a doubt, this was the best money we spent on the wedding reception. Not only did they check all the boxes of professionalism: timely and on time for the day of the wedding, responsive, clear in communication and helpful, but they are incredibly talented! They had wonderful high energy (their promo videos do not do them justice!) and had a terrific read on the crowd --- they were playing to young and old, fancy New Yorkers and down-to-earth Midwesterners. Each and every one of guests had a wonderful time – and they even got my Dad out of the dance floor (this simply never happens). The dance floor was packed the entire reception. Our crowd was also filled with guests that have been on the “wedding circuit” for several years now, and even these very seasoned wedding guests have continued to go on at length about how amazing the A-Town A-list was. Wedding band skeptics (yes, those people do exist) were also silenced by the performance of the A-Town A-list. The band has great stage presence and vocal talent, but were also flexible and accommodating, they were able to play an extra chorus of one song the crowd was really digging. The breadth of their coverage list was also impressive and perfect for a varied crowd --- oldie classics, current pop hits and a sprinkling of 90s / 80s. They were on point with song selection based on the list of songs we asked them to play / not play. A member of the band also served as the MC for us during dinner and he did an exceptional job. True professionals that deliver an unparalleled performance. The A-Town A-list and you, Andy, were a true pleasure to work with. As their booking manager, hold on to them! Our expectations were far exceeded! Thanks so much for everything, Kaitlin

It seemed like our guests were enjoying the music from beginning to end. Our daughter mentioned several times throughout the wedding day how much she was looking forward to the music and dancing. It was one of the things that was at the top of her "most important" list. I KNOW they were everything she was hoping for and more....we could tell by the happiness on her face when she was on the dance floor! We had a few special requests that I don't think they normally incorporate, but they fit them in beautifully. We really appreciate the way they worked to make the night exactly what we wanted. I hope the band felt like it was a fun crowd and enjoyed their time with us. Please let them know how much we appreciate them making the evening such a fun and memorable time! Mark and Janet Boon
We had a blast with A Town A List! I met with Mr. & Mrs. Dilegge on Monday and they said they received lots of great feedback about the bad from their guests. The bride and groom were so happy. I think Mrs. Dilegge was working on providing reviews this week, so you may want to check your Facebook page for new reviews - that is where she put the review for my company. From my standpoint, I can’t thank you and the band enough for being so easy to work with, both before and during the wedding. I would be happy to leave a review as well, just let me know where you prefer that I post that, or if you’d rather have an email. I wouldn’t mind at all if you wanted to add me to a testimonial list. I honestly could not offer one suggestion for improvement, I am so pleased! Happy New Year to you and all the band - please express my gratitude to them as well!

Hello A-Town A-List, Thank you for an incredible performance during our wedding reception on November 22nd at The Corcoran Gallery of Art. Your band BLEW. US. AWAY. Since the wedding we have been giving your name to guests and engaged couples who wrote and called us in the days after the wedding to ask "Who was that awesome band?". We can not express how much your performance shaped the whole night. All Bobby and I wanted for our reception was good food and a dance party. Luckily you guys were able to be a big part of us accomplishing our goal. Do you keep set lists of your performances? Bobby and I would love to make a playlist of all the songs from the night. Maybe every year on our anniversary we will have a dance party in A-Town A-List's honor. Again, THANK YOU! If there is anything we can do for you, say the word. Pictures, videos, blurbs, Knot reviews, etc. We would love to do something small in return for such an incredible performance. Best, Kate and Bobby Brown

Our wedding was the most magical, perfect evening of our entire lives! The A-Town A-List made the whole evening! Leading up to our wedding we had one wish, and that was that everyone had the time of their life! We wanted a huge party - and that is definitely what we got with A-Town A-List! First let me start by saying that we went out on a limb by booking A-Town A-List. We have never heard them live, we don't know anyone who has ever heard them live, and we found them on YouTube! This turned out to be the best risk we have ever taken! Leading up to our wedding, everyone at Sam Hill Entertainment was fabulous to work with. All of our calls and emails were returned immediately, and any questions or concerns we had were always addressed promptly. When you are planning your entire wedding there are so many vendors, details and loose ends to deal with it is such a relief when people are so professional and make you feel at ease. Even though we were completely confident in our choice in hiring this band, when we finally got to meet them before the start of our reception, we knew that they were going to provide us with an amazing night! Right from the start they were totally engaged with all 115 people at our wedding. They coordinated with the members of the wedding party and my father who were giving toasts. They worked with our wedding coordinator in ensuring that they took a break at the right time (which it didn't even feel like they took a single break) and announced our cake cutting and tossing of the bouquet and garter. They even took the time to learn a special song that I wanted to dedicate to my husband. When I asked him the next morning what his favorite part of the whole night was, his response: "When the band played "I'm the Man"! That made me so happy! Most importantly, this amazing band literally kept every single guest we had on the dance floor the entire night! It was like a dream come true! There were people at our wedding who we never thought we would see dance in a million years, that were on the dance floor having a blast all night long! If we could relive that night a thousand times we would in a heart beat! Everything about it was magical and the memories we made are unforgettable. We want to thank A-Town A-List for helping make our wedding a million times better than we ever thought possible! Thanks a million times over! Dexter & Mackenzie Lamb

I knew they would, I saw what they brought at Park Tavern over the summer of last year and with the list of people who would be attending our wedding it was EPIC! It was interesting to know that they start the night without really a set play list and both the band and the guests feed off the energy and they were truly amazing. I'm a fan, I will travel to see them if they ever play in a public venue again that's within reach. It was everything that I hoped it would be and much, much more. I didn't want it to end. Rudy introduced me to the crowd before I played a song that I'd chosen to play for my Daughter, Allison from Green Day called "Time Of Your Life" and once I finished they all posed with me onstage for pictures which I will share all of them with you once we get them back from the photographer. It really meant a lot to me and I know that you have already gotten one booking from my recommendation from an employee of Lake Lanier Islands and several others asked me how to get in touch with the band for future events. I love live music, I love people who are professional, who are real, and who care about what they do. These young people envelop all the good things in life and helped us make our Daughter's Wedding "The Time Of Their Lives". The best money I have ever spent. I will be forever grateful to them.

I knew the band was good but they were even better than expected. We had an absolute blast. Everyone danced from the time they started playing to the end. The only people not dancing were the elderly and physically impaired, no lie. I've been to a lot of weddings and so many times people sit while the band plays and get up once the DJ starts during the bands break. This was the exact opposite. The band and the guest took breaks at the same time. We all needed a breather. I have had peoples tell me, "The band made the wedding", "Wedding of a lifetime", Best wedding I have every been to".

Sorry for the delayed response... it's been a bit of a whirlwind! The wedding was fantastic, and A-Town was off the hook amazing!!! We had myriad comments that they were the best wedding band that people had ever heard. Going with them was one of the best decisions of the wedding. In addition to being stellar musicians, they also read the crowd beautifully....old school classics at the beginning of the dancing that was appropriate for all generations all the way to Blurred Lines and Nirvana at the end when things were, shall we say, a bit more animated ;). I would recommend any of the bands without hesitation. Thanks so much in helping to facilitate an amazing experience!!! Warm regards, Michelle Demus Auerbach

They were absolutely amazing. From the second they hit the stage they had our guests out on the dance floor. Dancing was the part we were most looking forward to and A-Town completely exceeded my expectations. Worth every penny. I could on and on. I'm actually sad that I won't get to them perform again. I'll have to convince my friends to use them as well! Thank you so much for you assistance throughout this process. I've already recommended Sam Hill to a bunch of people who asked how I found A-Town. Best, Molly
Hey Frank, Wow! Ryan and the guys “knocked it out of the park”! With such an event (entertaining our customers), there is sometimes apprehension. “Did I make the right choice?” “Will my guest like them?” You get the picture. I wanted to let you know that those fears were quickly put to rest by Ryan and the band. I have never worked with more accommodating folks! Ryan’s words to me were “trust me”. I’m glad I did! And what did my guests think? They were blown away! From the first song to the last, they could not get enough! The comments were “best band you’ve ever had”! I agree with them! We will use them again! I just wanted to thank you for sending them my way. Please don’t hesitate to consider me as a reference for these guys. I would recommend them at any event or level!! Thanks again! Dave M David Mitchum Manager, Business Solutions PPG Industries 386-527-3818 dmitchum@ppg.com

We are sending each band member thank you notes once we get settled in. Every guest had a great time with the music and every member of that band is wildly talented. They were the best money we spent on the entire event and they made the wedding day incredibly special. My dad danced until I was guessing he would pass out. Everyone was dancing crazy and having an amazing time feeding if not only their music but their energy and interaction with the crowd. I am already trying to make up a reason to have a band party to have them back. Of all the people that were part of wedding, Caroline and I both continue to talk about how amazing A-town is what made it what we imagined it would be. George Malone

I have NEVER been to a wedding where people have chanted "one more song" at the band. And when they did play one more song, the crowd chanted it again. No one left the dance floor or the reception. I didn't leave until 12:30 am and if the band had kept going, who knows how much longer I would have been there. I can't tell you how many compliments I had on our band, and how many people asked if they could use it at their next event. The President of the Mardi Gras Association wanted to know how much they were so he could book them for the next Mardi Gras season, ( not sure what their budget was though, so we will see). I am still getting compliments on how amazingly FUN my wedding was, and that was what we were going for, and I know A Town A List played a huge part in that! Please send them my Gratitude! It truly was a PHENOMENAL NIGHT. At one point the entire room was shaking from people jumping up and down. My dad, who's not the biggest fan of pop music, is now obsessed with "I gotta feelin" because of the wedding. My mom says he plays it on repeat!! Thank you! Sincerely, Sarah Sadler Worsley

I can honestly say they are the very best band that I have ever heard. My husband's favorite band has always been the band of oz, but now after hearing your band, well, he has changed his mind! He says that your A-Team A-List has it going on and are definitely on their A game, and now his favorite band. We were at a party in Goldsboro last weekend and people there were talking about how great they heard A-Team A-List was at the Crawford wedding reception. We confirmed to everyone that what they had heard was true..i sincerely hope that I get another chance to hear them one day......their professionalism and performance was "over the top", they had everyone dancing and rocking to every song! AWESOME doesn't do them justice!!! I remember choking a little when Lauren told me how much they cost, but I wanted Lauren to be happy and for her wedding to be a fairy tale......so I said to Lauren, book them if that is what you want. We did book them and I can honestly say that they were worth every penny I spent and then some. Hope to see them on tv or somewhere famous in the future, best money I have ever spent and absolutely no regrets hiring them! They made lauren and sam's wedding reception a fairy tale indeed...........what fabulous memories we will have of that fun filled night!!!! Lauren's maid of honor Lindsay has a wedding coming up in September, her dad was there and went up to A-Team A-List during their break time to inquire about them playing for Lindsay's wedding reception in September. I don't know what has happened since then, but I can honestly say that they must have made and impression on Lindsay's dad and mom. fondly, Sharon crawford

Ryan - I just want to tell you and the rest of your band how awesome you were at our daughter's wedding this past Saturday in Highlands, NC. We can never thank you enough for making Lindsey and Brendan's wedding the best wedding I have ever been do and according to all of our guests- the best wedding they have ever been to as well!! Great, awesome, fabulous, terrific, really good, unbelievable are only a few of the words used to describe how wonderful you all were. I could go on forever with all the superlatives our guests used!!! Lindsey's two requests for her wedding was 1-open bar and 2-a really, really good band. We delivered on number one - you all delivered on number 2!! For that I just want to say thank you, thank you, thank you.

I am so happy that I booked you all as it really made the wedding. Everyone is talking about how, during the Maid of Honor's speech you did the impromptu rendition of that song for Joanna and Erica! Simply awesome! Everyone had the time of their life, and hands down everyone said that it was the best wedding band they had ever heard. My nephew said that it was more like a concert than a band! All of the songs sounded even better than the originals! His daughter was one of the children who got her photo taken with the girl singer....and she cherishes it! She was a great addition as I did not know that you all had a female in the group! Thanks again for an unforgettable night! It was simply spectacular....please keep me in mind if you need any "wedding recommendations" in the future.

A-Town band exceeded all our expectations on providing entertainment and dancing music for our daughter's wedding! There was not one person sitting down during the reception...there was a whole lot of getting down on the dance floor! We had so many compliments from both the young and old on how incredible the band was! One guest said he had not danced that much in fifteen years! The bride and groom said they could not of asked for more in their wedding band and that critique is the most important one! The band truly made the reception a fun filled, unforgettable wedding reception for all!! I have a younger daughter and I will definitely use A-Town again!

Hi Beth, Thanks for following up with us on this. The band was awesome. And not just kind of awesome, they were ridiculously awesome. We can't tell you how many of our guests have said A-Town was by far and away the best band they have ever seen at a wedding. Most followed that up by saying A-Town was the kind of band they'd pay to see in concert. We picked our wedding venue (The Melting Point) because of our love for music, especially live music. And we booked A-Town because we thought they'd be able to put on a show that rivaled the best acts we've seen there. They definitely did not disappoint. From the moment they took the stage to the last song they played, they did a fantastic job. They had all of our friends and family dancing the entire night, and that is exactly what we were hoping for. I'd like to specifically mention the song Ali's Dad wrote for their Father-Daughter dance. On short notice the band was able to learn the song and they played it to perfection, making that moment even more special than it already was. Ali and I would like to personally thank Ryan and the entire band for making our wedding reception pretty much the most awesome party ever. You guys were everything we hoped for and more. Now we just have to think of another reason to throw a party so we can book you guys again.... Thanks again for everything, David and Ali

Even my parents and their friends enjoyed the newer stuff, they felt like the band did a great job not making them feel too old ;) I have nothing but wonderful things to say.

Hi Beth, I was just about to send you an email to sing the praises of the A Town A List! To say that the band was a huge success would be a gross understatement! This was the first time our company has had live music at a holiday party and I was a little nervous at the response (not nervous about the band as I have heard them before and had complete trust) I was not disappointed! The dance floor stayed busy the entire night! The compliments have not stopped coming in and the band is the buzz around the office! Everyone that attended agreed that this was the best party the company has ever had and it is ALL thanks to the A Town A List! People have been saying that they must be at the holiday party next year and one girl wants them to play at her wedding! I cannot thank you all enough for being the easiest vendor to deal with and by far the most rewarding. The A Town A List WAS the party and I am so thankful! All of my deepest and sincerest thanks, Lynsey
Hi Beth, I'm so sorry for the delay getting back to you--have been playing catch-up since getting back from my honeymoon! In any event, I'm almost at a loss to express how much we loved A-Town A-List. When we were first looking for a band, I think I told you that my fiance and I were really apprehensive: we don't usually like wedding bands, and he comes from a very musical family that has incredibly exacting taste. Most bands we listened to we thought sounded cheesy and/or mediocre. But let me just say that when it comes to A-Town A-List, they are anything but. We were honestly floored by how amazing they were, how talented and charismatic; the dance floor was packed for hours; and even our photographer (who goes to weddings every week) said they were by far the best band she had ever heard. I can't tell you how many people have mentioned the band to us since and said that they were simply blown away. Plus, the guys are so nice and easy to work with. I honestly could go on and on... Anyway, THANK YOU! And if there's anything I can do (any sort of testimonial to write, etc.) to help spread the word about these guys, please, please let me know. xx Alex

They were phenomenal. They weren't kind of good, they were absolutely over the top incredible. They showed up early, they were set up, they were prepared, they followed everything in the contract (even the special requests). They were super-easy to deal with -- I had a million demands, and they met and exceeded all of them. They were truly one of the highlights of our entire wedding week, which was essentially a week long party culminating with the wedding reception. All of our guests -- we had 130 people that flew in from all over the United States -- agreed that the band was one of the best they'd ever heard. One of the girls who told me that had hired Earth, Wind & Fire to do one of her events. That's one of the best compliments a band can receive. They were over the top incredible, and I would never hesitate in a million years to hire them again or recommend them to anyone. We do a lot of big events throughout the year, and people have already been talking about them. Anyway, big compliments to all of them, and thanks to Sam Hill for recommending them and helping us through the entire process. Huntley Luna
Words cannot express how impressed I was at Haynes and Walkers reception last night. As a wedding planner, I couldn't begin to estimate how many bands I have seen, but I have never worked with one as nice, professional, and talented as The A-Town A-List. I was not aware that a set list could be as broad as theirs, but I promise if you can think of it, these guys can do it and do it well. Thanks again, Meghan and Iook forward to many more events as entertaining as last night! Ellen Morgan M Elizabeth Weddings & Events
Beth, The band was fantastic. We got many nice compliments about them, and I am sure you will get more business as a result of the outstanding performance. Many people told us it was the most fun wedding they had ever attended. Thank you for checking in. They were absolutely amazing! Susan
"The A-Town, A-List" lives up its name. They are an A-List act! A++++++ ALL THE WAY! Not only do they keep the party going all night, but they are friendly, professional and timely. As an event planner, I love that they are excellent communicators! That means so much when you are working with a band, especially when working with a band for a wedding! Some bands try to treat a wedding as a "gig" making all sorts of demands, letting you know what "they do" rather than remembering that it is not all about them, but about the couple who just got married. "The A-Town A-List" entertains on the behalf of the couple. They make the show personal, add extra touches, and do EVERYTHING and more that is requested of them from the couple! I WILL be working with them again! Tricia Huddas Mesaros Tricia Huddas Events, Savannah, GA
Do yourself a favor and book "The A-Town A-List" band for your event. There will be no regrets. In fact, you'll have a go-to band for life! Barry Fletcher Event Planner from Dallas, TX
"The A-Town A-List" event band takes the guesswork out of event entertainment.... They hit a grand slam every time. Quality, national-level entertainment. The energy, variety and excellence of their show is amazing. Michael Condon Event Planner from New York, NY
"The A-town A-List" is -- hands down -- the best, most entertaining option for private event entertainment that I have seen. The musicians and vocalists in the band are captivating to be sure, but it doesn't stop there. They are true performers, interacting with the crowd and delivering something for everyone. Best yet, their dedication to excellence is evident in their communication and all of the business done off-stage. I have found "The A-Town A-List" to be a breath of fresh air, in so many ways. Worth every penny! Shannon Thomas Event Planner from Atlanta, GA
I would literally recommend "The A-Town A-List" to ANYONE! My wedding was the most fun, mostly because of you! Emily Dickens Bride from Atlanta, GA
Wow... we just had SUCH a great time at our reception! We just love you all!! I still hear from my friends that go on and on about how the band was the best, and it was the BEST wedding they have ever been to. It made my wedding perfect. YOU GUYS made my wedding perfect! If there is anything I can do for you, just say the word. Chandria Northern-Rolader Bride from Athens, GA
Dear A-Town A-List... You guys are simply amazing! YOU MADE OUR RECEPTION!! We're considering throwing another party just so we can have you back! Seriously, I can't imagine our celebration without you guys. Such talent, such fun, such a class act. You helped us make memories that will last forever. Thank you so much!!
