Hi Mike,
Appreciate you reaching out to us. We apologize for the delayed response, we have been busy reliving the great memories from the night!
We wanted to let you know that Tidewater Drive was everything we could have hoped for and more. From the beginning the band was very professional and easy to work with. We knew as soon as we heard our first dance song Millionaire that we made the right choice for a band. We both thought the music selection was excellent. The upbeat music after our first dance was great to get people on to the dancefloor. The song Boogie Shoes was timed perfectly for when Ellie got her light up shoes on. The saxophone player coming into the crowd and going into the bar during love train is something that everyone will never forget! Finally, bringing us on stage for Higher was so much fun, and thank you for playing Shout at the very end! That was one of my only requests!
For what it's worth, many of our friends and family have been raving about Tidewater Drive as well. We will certainly recommend your group to anyone else looking for a band for a wedding or an event. I know some people in attendance would definitely consider the band if Tidewater Drive were to ever perform at a wedding in the New England area. We will be happy to leave a 5 star review on your website as well as the Knot to help promote your band.
Thank you for helping make this such a special night for Ellie and myself!

All of them were kind and full of energy. They were wonderful about checking in with me to review major events. Saturday was one of the best weddings I’ve ever experienced. I’ll be recommending them to all moving forward. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Tidewater Drive!

Hithanks so much for checking in. TWD was above and beyond!! We had a lot go wrong on Saturday (got married in a hurricane) and in large thanks to TWD people still left saying it was the best wedding they had ever been to. They were so fun and interactive!
Honestly, the only feedback I have is that they need to make their promo materials better because they were sooooooo much better and more fun than I thought they’d be based on their booking promos. We couldn’t be happier. Thanks so much!

Thank you so very much for playing a FANATASTIC show at our wedding this weekend. I can't tell you how many of our guests reached out to say how much they enjoyed your performance. You made our evening so lively, celebratory, and special. It was an amazing feeling to be on stage and in the crowd with you! I really can't thank you enough for making the trek out there, and for briefly sharing the mic with my dad for all of his bus updates. We could not recommend you highly enough!

I think I can speak for all of us when I say that Tidewater Drive did not disappoint! They were on time, accommodated our timeline, played just the right volume during dinner and then blew the crowd away when the dancing started! We said we weren’t big slow dance people and they listened! The band played literally nonstop until the wedding ended at 11. Not one break. We would highly recommend Tidewater Drive to anyone.

I cannot begin to tell you how happy I was with Tidewater Drive Band!! They are the absolute best!! We had family members who were skeptical about having a band. They wanted a DJ. They were totally won over by the band!! They have so much energy and engage the audience the entire night. I had so many people tell me it was the most fun wedding they have ever been to. That was in large part due to the band. I have known Scott for many years and it was very special to me to have him as part of our special day!!

Tidewater Drive was absolutely spectacular. We've never seen such an interactive and highenergy group of people! They went above and beyond to make our night memorable and keep everyone dancing. There wasn't a single moment where the dancefloor wasn't packed!
The band members were also so helpful in the weeks before with all of our requests, including providing our ceremony speaker system as well as awesome live music during our cocktail hour.
Working with Sam Hill was really a dream. Of all of our vendors, Sam Hill was the most organized and communicative regarding each step of the wedding process. We really couldn't have asked for a better experience! Thank you!
Sincerely,
Erica and Chris Proctor

Hey Katie,
What an incredible experience we had working with Tidewater Drive and then celebrating with them on our wedding day. They were extremely communicative with us in the month leading up to the wedding, and we specifically worked a lot with Mark who was lovely and very helpful. I also believe he was in contact with my dad in order to pull off a surprise guest appearance from our college's mascot, and he was instrumental in making them come to fruition. The music on wedding night was fantastic and kept everybody engaged just like we had asked them to. They got the crowd involved and kept the party going all the way until the end (which came way too fast), and nobody was ready to leave by the end of the night. We will be sure to recommend this amazing group of people to anyone we know in the future having an event. Thanks!
Sincerely,

To: Andrew Juge
We were very happy with almost every decision we made for our daughter’s wedding and reception, but Tidewater Drive was unquestionably one of the best elements of the entire weekend. We picked them for their fantastic sound and their impressive versatility, and they totally delivered musically. What’s harder to assess from a demo tape is the way the band will interact with the dinner guests, but our guests RAVED about TWD. Nearly everyone from every walk of life was out there on the dance floor, and the band had such stamina!
Here’s a concrete example of their consummate showmanship: When the toasts were over and it was time for the guests to move to the tent where the music and dancing would be, three or four horns came into the ballroom and started playing “When the Saints Go Marching In” in the New Orleans style. The Pied Piper himself could not have led the crowd into the tent more effectively, and it really set the tone for an evening of jubilant celebration. When we got home, my wife told me that if she dies before I do, she wants me to get Tidewater Drive to come and play that song as the recessional at her funeral! And here’s the thing: I’ll do it. I get what she’s feeling.
The other thing you can’t assess from a demo tape is professionalism, but TWD excels there as well. Lenny and Scott reached out to me several months ahead of the event and could not have been more competent and responsive. There are so many details to juggle in a party of this size, and the band is a pretty important detail, but I knew after talking to Scott and Lenny that I had nothing to worry about with TWD.
And finally, Gigi—God bless her—learned a special song that I used to sing to my daughter when she was a little girl, and she played it during my welcome remarks. It brought my daughter, me, and many of the guests to tears, and I’ll be eternally grateful.
In all seriousness, we’ve had discussions with many of our friends about throwing a big party that is essentially the wedding reception without any wedding. We don’t know what the occasion will be, but we know we’ll be hiring Tidewater Drive.

To me, a great wedding has three things: Great food, a beautiful venue, and a great band.
Throughout the evening, I kept hearing three things from my guests: The food is great, the venue is beautiful, and the band kicks ass.
Not only did Tidewater Drive sound great, they were so gracious and accommodating from the very beginning. They learned new songs on short notice, gave advice when I needed it, and even let me perform two songs with them!
Our reception didn't exactly go as plannedwe had to reschedule certain things a few timesbut Scott and the other band members were with us every step of the way being as flexible as can be. Things ended up working very smoothly, which is a testament to TWD's professionalismI do not think just any band could have handled things the way they did.
10/10 would recommend to anybody.

Hi Mike,
I cannot echo my moms sentiments enough! They were FABULOUS! They blew our expectations out of the water and honestly was the highlight of our reception.
I am more than happy to add a review or do whatever to give this band credit. So awesome!
Best,
Sarah

As Mother of the Bride I can’t speak to all these thing but here is my input.I have never been to an event and experienced a better band.  Ever!! They were fantastic, friendly, fun, funny.  Loved the way y’all came down into the crowd and interacted. I wanted them to play ”September” but I was too busy dancing to ask!  Thanks for making this special day even more amazing!!

Justin,
Tidewater Drive was AWESOME! They are talented musicians and very professional. Mark was a great contact for the band and he was very accommodating and paid attention to the little details. Anna and I and all of our guests loved them. Great Band to have in your line up. I will be recommending them to friends, and I'm sure some folks from the wedding will also contact you about Tidewater Drive. They helped make the wedding reception a great success. Sam Hill has also been great to work with and I will also recommend your agency to friends and family searching for the perfect band for events they might have coming up. Thanks for everything and tell the band we love them!
Best Regards,

Chris Shaner

I really enjoyed having Tidewater Band at our ring figure this year. Everyone worked together well to put on the event. The event was a success and from feed back from those who attended the ball they like the music the band played as well as the music that was played while they took their break. I think everyone really enjoyed the band and how much they interacted with people on the dance floor. I really appreciate the band and what everyone did this weekend. Again thank you and hope to see you at the next VMI event.

Very Respectfully,
Sydney Hays

Dear Andrew,

Thanks for following up on Tidewater Drive. Simply put – THEY WERE AMAZING!!!!!!

So talented, energetic and fun! I have had so many of the guests tell me how great the band was. Without a doubt it was everyone’s favorite part of the wedding.

They entertained young and old and delivered way more than expected. We had many guests from Alabama and the band (without knowing the song) played the request of Sweet Home Alabama to end the night leaving our Roll Tide fans very happy indeed.

I especially appreciate the band playing for the ceremony. It was perfect! They did such a good job.

We can highly recommend them to anyone and hope to hear them play again!

Hi Justin,
Tidewater Drive was AMAZING! We've been to several weddings over the years, and I'd say they were among the very best when compared to other experiences we've had! Their energy and enthusiasm was contagious and we had quite the dance party! I'm already scheming some big party to have in the future so we can hire them again! Prior to the wedding, Lenny was easy to get in touch with and accommodating to our requests.
Thanks so much!

Hi Andrew,
Everything was great! Tidewater Drive was excellent! I would highly recommend them to everyone who is looking for an upbeat band with a great sound! Everyone raved about them all night long and asked for their name. They were so much fun and the song selection was great! In fact, a friend of ours is interested in booking them for their wedding next year. People are still talking about them! They were wonderful to work with leading up to the event as well as at the actual event. They were flexible, professional and accommodating everything you would want and more!
Let me know if you have any other questions! Again, thank you for recommending them to us. We LOVED them!

We were very pleased with Tidewater Drive Band. Aside from the great quality sound and entertainment, they were very personable and accommodating. They even allowed my husband to sing a song with two of his groomsmen! It was great! We all honestly did not want the night to end. They were so much fun and their song selection was fantastic. I wish I had another event sometime soon so I could hear them again! Without a doubt, I would highly recommend them such a perfect group!

Andrew,
Everything was amazing with the band. They were great and a real talking point for people during and post wedding. From beginning to end they were awesome, they played the cocktail hour which we initially weren't sure if they were going to do that. They then were a part of a surprise my wife set up where they did a 2nd line for me to head into dinner (I went to school down in New Orleans, so right up my alley and very awesome) They learned our song for our first dance which they had never played before, and did a fantastic job with it. With all the buildup of those 3 things, they also exceeded expectations during the main performance as well. We weren't sure if people would be dancing much, but the band's electricity got people up and moving. As for the business side, they were there on time, very easy to coordinate with and easy to plan with. Honestly they were perfect.
Overall we couldn't have asked for a better band, and they gave us some awesome memories that will last forever. And thank you for your help in setting up. Let us know if there is anything else you need from us, and if anyone needs to hear a glowing review of Tidewater drive, send them our way, because they have 2 new huge fans. Thanks!

Andrew,
Meghan and Josh are on their honeymoon, but I would like to tell you that the band Tidewater Drive was fantastic!!!!!!! They were a huge hit at the reception. Lots of dancing by all at the reception. They were a great band to work with, very helpful and always got back to me in a timely fashion when I had a question or concern. I give this band an A plus, plus rating and would highly recommend this band for any function but especially for a wedding as they really knew how to get the people dancing with their excellent choice of song lists. The female vocalist was incredible and the horns electrified the crowd. There was not a negative comment to be made of this band, all positive and lots of fun and energy.
Thank you again!

Dropping another note of appreciation for thinking of Tidewater Drive Band for the Loan Care Party. It went very well and I believe the client will agree. We certainly hope we can continue our relationship and look forward to meeting you when we are in your neck of the woods.
Best Regards,

The band was excellent at our wedding! You made it very personal and gave it that extra zing that I wanted for the reception. We've heard so many wonderful comments from our guests about how good the band was. Our guests were very pleased and kept asking, now who is the band? I will be recommending Tidewater Drive for any event I hear about. Thank you for making our special day even more outstanding!
Thanks again!!! :) Rebecca


We were so thrilled with the way you played for our wedding. It was a blast and having your band really made the party! We can't thank you enough. It was definitely one of the most memorable days for us!!!!! We are highly recommending you to anyone that needs a band :)

On behalf of Charlie, Mason, and Chris, I write to let you know what an outstanding job Tidewater Drive did at our party. Every guest enjoyed their music, danced the night away, and left happy. As you know, music sets the tone for the evening and creates the ambiance.
Thank you again for helping us make our daughter's wedding reception perfect!
Sincerely,
Mella Goldman


On behalf of the Virginia Opera family, I would like to offer you my most sincere thanks for working with us on the 2011 Under the Big Top Opera Ball. Tidewater Drive was the perfect choice of entertainment for our event and a huge hit with our patrons. At the end of the night, no one wanted to leave the dance floor, which is certainly a mark of success in our books!
Warmest Regards,
Lisa Domingo Sands, Hampton Roads Director of Development
