Your Favorite Songs With a Bold New Sound
Tired of the same old cover band? Are you looking for something truly distinctive for your event? How about a band that puts a fresh spin on the songs you love, full of the spark that made them hits in the first place? And how about a band that created their own hit song? How about E3? E3, featuring members of the band Everything, is a uniquely entertaining band that is creating a buzz at every event they play-- from corporate cocktails, to weddings, to big stage blowouts. And yes, their song . . .
I have never seen a band with the ability to get everyone on their feet the way E3 did. They created an instant dance party and everyone enjoyed it, from my grandma to our tiny ring bearer! We returned from our honeymoon about a week ago and everyone's first comment with talking about our wedding was how much they enjoyed the band.

How about a band that puts a fresh spin on the songs you love, full of the spark that made them hits in the first place? And how about a band that created their own hit song? How about E3? E3, featuring members of the band Everything, is a uniquely entertaining band that is creating a buzz at every event they play-- from corporate cocktails, to weddings, to big stage blowouts. And yes, their song "Who Got the Hooch" was a top 10 radio hit and showcased in Adam Sandler's movie "The Waterboy". Putting a new spin on cover bands, E3 plays electrifying versions of the songs you know and love. From dinner and drinks to a packed dance floor, these amazing musicians will take care of all your musical needs with stellar 3 part harmonies, unstoppable grooves, and funky riffs. Their extensive song catalog covers it all; classic R&B, rock, reggae, funk, 80s, 90s, and even today's chart toppers - from Louis Armstrong to Led Zeppelin, from Johnny Cash to The Cure to Coolio. But E3 doesn't stop there. Their original touch is to customize the style of each song, tailoring the music to fit the vibe of their audience. This makes every show special, for you and for them, giving an energy and magic to your event that your guests won't soon forget. E3 is a band of world class entertainers who have played thousands of shows around the globe, sharing stages with the biggest names in the biz. Even more important, they simply love to play music together and entertain the heck out of any crowd. They have lived the pop star life-- stadium shows, record deals, autographs, etc., and they bring that energy, charisma and showmanship to each performance. Consummate professionals, they are reliable, charming, and ready to make your party/event the best it can possibly be.

5-star review posted on TheKnot.com April 2018: "E3 was a great addition to our wedding at King Family Vineyards. We used them to introduce the wedding party, play a small set towards the end of dinner and to play during the reception. Leading up to the wedding E3 was super easy to work with. It started with a comprehensive survey from Sam Hill Entertainment, from there we had a couple of calls with Andy from the band to flush out all of the details. They were flexible and professional. After our wedding, lots of people said the band was amazing and really helped make the night unforgettable for everyone. In hiring a band, we hoped to have them take care of the guests for the evening and E3 did just that. We completely agree and would highly recommend them for other weddings/events."

Last Saturday was amazing and it definitely had so much to do with E3! I got so many compliments from both the older and younger crowds on how much they loved the music and the energy the band brought. Everyone was so impressed with the song transitions and combinations, and I think y'all did an awesome job picking songs everyone really liked. Thank you all for learning and playing the first dance song so well! Having that followed by the combined parents dance was definitely a great decision so thank you for suggesting that! You all did an awesome job, and I will definitely tell all my friends that get married in the area to pick you all as their band. Thank you! Ashlyn
5-star review on TheKnot.com posted 09/18/2017 "We used Sam Hill Entertainment to book the band E3 for our wedding. From the start, the agent Andy from Sam Hill was very responsive and easy to work with. He helped us choose E3 and they were the perfect band! The band sent a simple questionnaire of how we wanted things to go on our wedding day and that was really all they needed from us to prepare. From the introductions, to our first dances, and the rest of the wedding -- everything went perfectly! I originally planned to play our first dance songs on an I-Pod, but the band told our wedding coordinator that they could play all of our songs, so that was a pleasant surprise! The band was so much fun and we didn't leave the dance floor once since they started playing. Would highly recommend Sam Hill as a booking agency and definitely recommend E3 as a wedding band!"

The Knot Review: 5/27/17 We hired E3 for our wedding reception and were thrilled with the outcome! Prior to being engaged, my husband and I went to a family wedding where E3 was playing - everyone was loving the music and it was one of the most fun weddings we've been to, so it was an easy decision when choosing the band for our wedding a year later. Our dance floor was packed during our entire wedding reception! I worked closely with Andy, the band leader, when determining what songs I definitely did (and did not) want to be played at the reception, in which he was very responsive and listened to my suggestions. They even learned my first dance song with my father under very short notice. One of my favorite things about E3 is the variety of music they play - from country to oldies to rock, they can do it all and appeal to everyone! Everyone at the reception was so complimentary of the band - no one wanted the night to end! Could not have been happier with our decision with E3! -Christina Davis

Outstanding musicians…. A pleasure to work with - wish I had them at every wedding. Set-up was clean and efficient and they were professional, gracious….a class act and first rate talent. My clients loved every minute. E3 was perfect for the event and I will be checking their availability often and will certainly look forward to working with them again. Thanks so much for suggesting them and encouraging me to convince my clients to hire them. You might not remember, but my bride had already talked to a DJ and a contract was in the works. I begged them to use live music and they do not regret it, thanks to you and this band. Will call you every time I can. Thanks so much, Andy. Best always, Patti Patti Davis Weddings
From: Bruce Morrissey Date: Mon, Nov 7, 2016 at 3:15 PM Subject: Re: E3 To: "Justin @ Sam Hill Entertainment" Dear Justin, E3 couldn't have been better! Throughout the booking process, the song selections, and the spectacular wedding night, they didn't fail us once. Musicians par excellence, gentlemen, and all around good guys... it was pure pleasure. They had all 120 quests dancing all night and partying with abandon. I would recommend this band to anyone who desired a good time, class, high quality musical ability. All in all, great guys with talent! Thank You and your staff for all your help. Bruce
"E3 was our dream wedding band. From their song choices to their style; they had it all. My Dad was adamant about great music and a band that could produce quality sound and a lot of it. Being as he is a musician himself, we were only going to get the best. You wouldn’t believe the sound from this 3-piece and their wide range of music knowledge. They even learned ‘Tennessee Whiskey’ for our first dance and it was really special! They blew us away and many of our guests (including future brides and grooms) were asking where we found them. I am so happy we chose E3. I only wish that night of dancing wasn’t over so fast!" Erica Eskin 10/1/16, wedding in Scottsville VA

From: Denise Fessler Date: Mon, Jun 8, 2015 at 9:27 AM Subject: Re: E3 To: "Andy @ Sam Hill Entertainment" Andy, One word. Fantastic! The E3 band was by far the best part of the reception. They are truly talented and everyone knew right from the start we had a band that were great musicians and appreciated it! Not often you have a band that also had their own original song as a hit. As a result everyone was dancing from start to finish. Appreciated the mix of sounds appealing to young and old. The sound system was terrific in that it was not too loud or soft as well. They were extremely professional and nice people. Please extend our sincere appreciation to the band for the excellent performance, their professionalism and their willingness to play some difficult songs for Megan and Justin's special day!

The band was very easy to deal with in preparation for the performance, and then we and our guests loved the show that they put on for us. E3 was also very good about introducing our wedding party, playing the few recorded songs we asked them to, etc. Truly the only possible negative was that the lead singer's guitar string broke right at the end, so the band wasn't able to play one last song for us. Thanks for your help in getting the band booked, and we're completely glad and satisfied we chose E3. Is there a place for us to write a good review of them, do you know? Thanks, Gabe

E3 (Andy) took the initiative to directly get in touch with the reception hall coordinator, which alleviated some of the planning for us. Andy also contacted us before the wedding to go over the program and ensured us that all will go off without a hitch. Sure enough, it all went perfectly as planned. We would also like to thank you, Mike, for administering the band for us. You were very prompt in your response and followed up until the date of the event. Thank you.

I wanted to drop you a line letting the band know, again what an awesome gig you guys put on. Not only were you easy to deal with but I enjoyed hanging out and talking with you guys between sets and I know others did as well. Your set-lists are flawless and the "mash-up" transition style you incorporate really gets the crowd going. We love it and I'm glad Saturday was able to happen. Thanks again for booking the gig on such short notice, it turned what was looking like a sub-par weekend into an outstanding one. I'm sure we'll be in touch again in the future because I definitely want to have you guys back sometime before I graduate in 2013. Have a great weekend and give the band my best.

I was very pleased with E3 and thought they did a great job! I loved their attire because it fit in well with our beachy wedding theme. They were very friendly, introduced themselves when they saw me and seemed to play the songs we requested. I've had compliments on the band from guests so that's always a nice thing too! Overall they were great and we were very happy! Thanks for your help and for checking in. Send our thanks to E3 too - I hope they had a good time too! Kara

We could not have been happier w/ them and their performance. They were an integral part in making the evening a total blast. I can't tell you how many people complimented us on the wedding and literally every single one of those people specifically mentioned how awesome the band was. By the end of the night the whole crowd was jumping up and down trying to touch the ceiling. The way they jam in and out of songs was right up our alley as most of my friends, including me, still go to alot of shows so we recognize good live music when we see it and those guys rocked. They were also very easy to work with. Steve and I corresponded quite a bit before the wedding and he was very accommodating and I could tell he just wanted to make things as easy as possible on us and still put on a good performance. Very professional and nice people at the same time. We sincerely could not have been happier w/ those guys and feel very fortunate we were able to have such a good band perform at our wedding. I'll be recommending and selling E3 to anyone that needs to book a band. Feel free to give me a call if you want to talk on the phone. Thank you very much, Steve G
From: Jennifer Hamlin Sent: Tuesday, August 04, 2009 6:56 PM To: hank Subject: E3 Hank, Just want to touch base and let you know that I LOVE E3! They were so great to work with, dressed super cute (in my girl opinion) and rocked the room. I will book them again in a heartbeat. If you need a referal for them at all, I am happy to give them rave reviews. They totally understood how to be a great wedding band and that the party was not about them. They highlighted the bride and groom and were open to guests walking up and giving toasts. Thank you so much for the recommendation and help! All the best, Jennifer Hamlin Events With Panache

They did a spectacular job with our first dance song, and it just got better from there. Our guests were impressed and really enjoyed the music selections that them on the dance floor! Should E3 need references from anyone in the future, please feel free to contact either Jerry or I. Please convey to them how pleased we both were! v/r, Heidi
From: Steven Anderson Sent: Tuesday, July 14, 2009 2:42 PM To: Hank Wells @ Sam Hill Entertainment Subject: RE: E3 Hank: The band was excellent. Andy and the guys were a pleasure to work with and learned a song for us that was a hit with everyone, though not one you'd often hear coming from a three-piece rock band (it was MJ's "Man in the Mirror"). They even regaled us with a couple of Everything songs, including "Skinny Little White Butt," which, along with "Hooch," were definitely crowd favorites. In fact, I can't count how many compliments they were given by our guests. We had an awesome time and would certainly recommend E3 to anyone. Hopefully, we'll see them at another wedding soon! Thanks for all your help. Steven and Lynds

Please tell them how much everyone loved them. Thanks. Nancy

Thank you so much for your help in arranging E3 for my wedding reception! They were awesome! Their performance was absolutely perfect and exactly what I wanted. They kept everyone (especially me!) on the dance floor all night! Oh! And the "first dance songs" (i.e. bride-groom, father-daughter, mother-son) were absolutely wonderful! I really appreciated that the band learned and performed the "first dance" songs that I requested with absolutely no hesitation. The band made everything very easy for me too. I sent Andy a general outline of how I wanted the evening to flow and he made it happen without having to ask me one million questions, which was really great. I can't say enough how pleased I was with E3! Many guests commented on how great the band was and I couldn't agree more! Thanks for your help, Mike! I will definitely recommend Sam Hill and E3 to anyone looking for a band! Thank you! Hillary

I just can't even put into words how much fun we had at the reception thanks to them. They were so nice, so easy to work with and so professional. The dance floor was packed the entire night (which was just what I wanted!)! They were great with all of the kids running around and even led the room in "Happy Birthday" for my grandfather. I just can't say enough great things about them. I am forever an E3 groupie!!!! Maybe I can talk Mike into a first anniversary party next year just to have a reason to hire them again! Thank you Andy for suggesting such an awesome band!!!!!!!!! I am so grateful for your help!!! I will certainly recommend Sam Hill Bands and E3 to whoever is looking to hire a band!

"Andy, I wanted to let you know how much we absolutely LOVED LOVED the "E3" band this past weekend! They were perfect. So professional, so nice. They were a hit. An absolute 10! My party loved them. They were so fantastic, I am so happy with them. Please recommend them to everybody. They were perfect. I am so thrilled with them - they got the whole crowd going. They were wonderful and we were unbelievably happy with them. Thanks for recommending them to us. We were completely happy with them. We had a blast!" - Lori Burman, May 2008 40th birthday party
Hi Steve....I'm Randy's wife.....you and E3 made Greg's 50th birthday party the best we've ever had (and believe me, we have a lot of parties!)....we love you guys! We're still talking about it.... Even my daughter loved you guys, and I can't remember the last time we liked the same band, maybe 10 years ago when she was in pigtails. What a hoot!!!!!! We're all coming to the Va Derby because you're playing....can't wait to hear you again! Mary Alderson
From: Seda Atam Sent: Monday, March 03, 2008 3:25 PM To: Justin @ Sam Hill Entertainment Subject: E3 Justin, Thank you so much for helping us with E3. They were phenomenal! We had them up on the top floor, in lieu of the ballroom due to size, and they stole the event. The WHOLE party moved to the room they were in and thus we even had to move our toast up to them. We couldn't have asked for a better band with a better bunch of guys. They were a delight to work with and an honor to get to know. I look forward to booking them again, VERY SOON. Also, they got a great nod in The Washingtonian's blogs. We expect to make it in the print version in a month or so as well. Best, Seda www.lukeswings.org
I want to thank all those who put together the Luau/BBQ on Saturday night. We had a wonderful turnout (I heard there were over 180 folks), a fabulous band, excellent food, and a really fun way to wind up the summer. So many of the guests thanked me for booking E3, they were the best band any of us have ever heard. They were also so easy to deal with, completely professional, and reliable, and charming with the crowd. Thanks again, and we'd love to have E3 back again any time! April Mann BGCA Entertainment Chair
Steve, I just wanted to thank you one more time for playing my party last week. Everyone that was there made it a point to tell me that you guys were by far the best cover band they had ever seen. I haven't seen all my oldest friends dancing all night in a long long time. As I told you that night, having you guys at my 50th was the best decision I've made in a long time. Also, you guys were so easy to deal with, completely professional and reliable. In a nutshell, we had a blast, you all were fantastic. Can't wait to see your band again. Please feel free to use me as a reference. E3 will get a top recommendation from me. Greg Campbell

E3 was perfect for our reception, we loved them, our guests raved about them, and the dance floor was packed the whole night, from our first dance to the very end, which says it all really. They were also completely sensitive to all our requests, professional, reliable, and great with the crowd. A special thanks for stopping so smoothly mid-set to allow my spontaneous wife to thank all the guests, which was one of the most heartfelt moments of our wedding. Perfect band, great song choices. I've had several friends who are getting married ask about them, so they should be calling you. Joe and Tracey Lawlor
