A Must Book for an Incredible Night!

The Cause and the Effects, are an incredibly gifted group, who elevate the night with their energy. Every song they play sounds great, but they also have a connection with the crowd that is unmatched. I’ve seen them play multiple times and each time they make the crowd feel part of the show. It’s impossible not to have a good time while this group is playing.

The best band EVER

Having Cause and the Effects play at our wedding was the only choice and a no brainer for us. We’ve seen them play many times since first seeing them play in the bar where we met. They are THE BEST, they know how to get your guests up on the dance floor all night. We have gotten so many comments from our guests saying how great the band was at our wedding. No one wanted to get off the dance floor and it was all thanks to the band. They kept the energy high and knew the right songs to play to keep everyone having a good time. It was a pleasure working with them through the whole planning process, they were professional, timely on responses and worked with us on figuring out the perfect set up for our day. We cannot recommend them enough!!! We love Cause and the Effects!

Simply the best!

I’m not the best at writing reviews, but I felt so compelled to share what an incredible experience it was working with the Cause and the Effects. It is my pleasure to tell you they were absolutely AMAZING – not only on our wedding day but throughout the entire journey leading up to it!

My husband and I are passionate about music and had specific, unconventional choices for our setlist. The band was beyond supportive and open to learning new songs that were meaningful to us, even if they weren't in their extensive repertoire. They nailed our first dance song, which was by a band they hadn't covered before – they truly knocked it out of the park!

At weddings, people often remember the atmosphere and the fun they had, rather than details like whether they chose the chicken or the beef for dinner. The Cause and the Effects made sure our guests had an unforgettable time. They engaged with everyone, even joining us on the dance floor to play and sing along with the crowd.

If you're searching for a band that will keep your guests dancing all night, connect with your audience on a personal level, and make your wedding day truly unforgettable for everyone, look no further than the Cause and the Effects. They are not only talented and professional but also incredibly fun. Choosing them was one of the best decisions we made – we have no regrets whatsoever! If you are on the fence about partnering with them, I hope this review helps.
