Amazing Band!!

My wife and I hired DownCity Band simply because they were one of two bands on our venue’s “Approved Vendors” list. We looked them up on WeddingWire and saw their good reviews, but were admittedly a little nervous about them since we hadn’t heard them play before. All of that concern went out the window (or rather, tent flap) as soon as they played our entrance song, Dancing Queen by ABBA. They were fantastic!! People were coming up to us all night saying how great the band was. The dance floor was packed all night long as they played one great song after another. They’re energy was electric, and they really made for a fun, memorable evening for everyone there. We can’t recommend them highly enough. And they’re so affordable!!! Worth absolutely every penny.

The best!

DownCity Band was AMAZING to work with. They were so great with communication leading up to the wedding which really put me at ease. And then at the wedding they were INCREDIBLE! Our guests have nonstop been talking about the music and how good they were. The dance floor was packed the entire night, I couldn’t be happier that I worked with them!

Couldn't Suggest DownCity Band More!

I couldn't suggest DownCity Band more for your wedding or event!! While looking for wedding bands we went to see them play at a bar in RI and from the first song (Respect - Aretha Franklin) we were sold! Such great musicians/singers and so much fun energy! Dave was super helpful and great to work with while planning and every guest at our wedding had nothing but compliments. They had everyone on the dance floor from start to finish and were truly the highlight of our rainy beach wedding! We want to have another event just to have DownCity play again! You will not regret hiring this band!
