"45 Riots is the real deal—members of their band are not only regulars on the New York nightclub circuit, but they've also toured globally, playing in bands for Prince, Sting, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys...the list is as impressive as it is long. They're universally considered to be one of the best Motown bands in New York, and their combination of old-school classics and newer songs (their big-band version of "Drunk in Love" is insane) makes them incredibly easy to dance to. Our advice? Wear flats."
Hiring 45Riots will be the best decision ever. They legitimately made our wedding so special. People were staring like they were at a concert. We must’ve heard “this is the best band I’ve ever heard” or “I feel like I’m at a concert” 9000 times. They’re such a talented group of individuals - every single person. The firm is so easy to work with too!

We booked 45 Riots for our wedding and could not have been happier with our decision. From our initial call with them we could tell how organized, professional, and passionate about the music they were. They continued to be super responsive and very easy to work with on the lead up to the wedding. On the day of, they brought such positive vibes and also sounded amazing! They had everyone dancing the entire time and we are still getting comments on how great the band was!

The best thing about hiring 45 Riots was looking around when the dance floor was open on our wedding night and seeing literally everyone on the dance floor. Nobody sitting at the tables, nobody hanging by the bar, every single person in the room on the dance floor enjoying the band. 45 Riots is on a different level than most wedding bands; they put on a show that stands on its own. We had an 8-piece band which was perfect for our reception of 150 people; 45 Riots also provided a guitarist for our ceremony and pianist for cocktail hour. Every single performer was incredible and we are so so glad we hired them for our wedding. They know how to get a crowd going and they’ll make your event truly something to remember!

45 Riots brought the HEAT to our wedding dance floor. Our 10 piece band smashed it and had our guests on the dance floor all night! I would recommend 45 Riots for any future events! Thank you 45 Riots!

I’m 70 years old and have seen a few bands in my day and this one ROCKED! The three vocalists are phenomenal, and are followed by a kickass bunch of musicians. The horn section blew up the place.
