    Delightful evening with Mercier's Music

    Mercier's Music (John) gifted us with great talent, professionalism and musical ability. He has a way of making the night feel magical and special. Our family and guests were blown away by his voice and ability to play so many instruments. It truly was a night to remember.

    Amazing! 100/10

    This review is long past due and I am so sorry for that!
    I met John during one of his street revivals so when I found out he was also a wedding DJ I was stoked!
    Ministry is incredibly important to my husband and I so we knew that John was the right choice for us!
    Not only did John deliver great music and high energy(especially when it was needed haha) but he was also able to take all of the left over food from our wedding and feed the homeless while he ministered to their hearts by sharing the gospel and love with them. That was so special to us. Knowing how much food was left over from our wedding, we were so concerned that it would all be thrown out, Johns’ heart and willingness to bless others with it blessed us in return. He’s an amazing DJ, incredibly talented but his heart for Jesus far outweighs any of that. I would recommend him to anyone! 100/10!

    Incredibly talented!

    John has an amazing voice and can play I don't even know how many instruments. I was in awe the first time I heard him sing so we asked him to come back a second time, and a third. Highly recommend him!

    Talented, professional, flexible and fun!

    John was absolutely fantastic! I was going to pop the question and was looking for someone to serenade us and set a romantic mood. He more than delivered! This all happened during the covid-19 pandemic and we decided to do it in a secluded location on the DC wharf while respecting the social distancing rules in affect. As he was setting up he was approached by security and was told he would not be able to play. Through a mutual respect as musicians he was able to convinced them to allow him to play acoustic and at the end of the pier with no one around. The whole plan would have fallen through if it wasn't for John's quick thinking and ability to adapt to any situation. He even learned a song I had in mind for the big moment. I would recommend John for any and all your music needs!

    Charismatic, Energetic, Talented, and all around PERFECT!!!! Best band EVER! So many compliments!!!!

    Deciding to hire Merciers Music for our wedding was the BEST decision I have ever made, hands down! I got married last night at Valley Mansion by Martin’s which was a very upscale place. Originally, I hired John with just one guitarist. A month or so before our wedding I got a phone call from John himself saying that he had a surprise for us, he said he was upgrading to a full band free of charge so of course I said yes very enthusiastically! The wedding day, walking into the reception, I could have cried it was so beautiful and surreal seeing the purple uplighting peering out through the doors and hearing his saxophone in the background. The bridal hostess informed me, rather enthusiastically, that this was the first full band they have ever seen play, and that he was really good so far! When I got in, it was unbelievable! John is such a talented man who could play so many fantastic instruments, dance, sing, and remain energetic the entire night really getting the entire crowd (even non-dancers) moving, his energy and charisma was through the roof!!!! I lost track of how many people singled me out just to tell me how phenomenal the band was, it was one person after another! John is such a godly, energetic, passionate, selfless, kindhearted, talented, amazing performer that I strongly recommend anyone hire! The rest of his band had excellent personalities, as well! They were all very clean, dressed professionally for the event, kind, and of course, extremely talented. They are all hidden gems that shined such a brilliant radiance the venue couldn’t contain it. Furthermore, John can SING the song “Perfect” by Ed Sheeran for those looking for a cute first dance that’s really intimate and personal!!!! After the event, it was so much fun sitting with my husband for our first breakfast together as a married couple, watching his Instagram feed of our beautiful night, laughing over all the dancing that we missed during the time we were either pulled away for pictures or otherwise busy greeting friends and family! If you want your wedding to feel like a perfect fairytale, hire Merciers Music!

    Merciers Music's reply:

    Wow Caitlin what a review! Thank you so much! was such a pleasure playing for your wedding! We absolutely loved Dancing with you guys! We will send over any and all the videos from the night so you can stay cherishing these beautiful moments!

    The best of the best!!!

    My daughter got married last night and originally I had a few fears about having a live band at a wedding. I’ve seen circumstances where they might not dress the part, where they take too many breaks, or where the sound isn’t good, but I didn’t have any of those problems thankfully with Merciers Music! John was such a wonderful individual and did everything he possibly could to take care of us and make this night unforgettable for my daughter. He honored all of her requests, pronounced everyone’s names correctly (even her new last name, which even we have a hard time with sometimes!) and was very charismatic. When the dance floor was empty, he would go out himself and start break dancing to get the crowd going. In all my years of weddings, I have never seen one where so many people were out of their seats and actually dancing, laughing, having fun! A wedding should be a celebration, and John helped make it exactly that for my daughter. She said she had multiple people approach her saying that this was the best wedding reception they had ever been to, and that he was the life of the party! It’s true, a DJ or band can make or break the entire atmosphere of a reception. John definitely makes it, but goes further than simply “making” it, he makes it unforgettable and magnificent. In the midst of all the stress and uncertainty that goes into planning a wedding, do yourself a favor and go with Merciers Music so that’s one less thing you need to worry about. John, we all LOVED you and your band! You are all so fun and wonderful! We can’t wait to get the photos!

    Merciers Music's reply:

    Wow wow wow what a review! Thank you so much Karen for taking the Thought and Time to review us! This was definately one of our favorite weddings BY FAR! Thank you so much for the blessing and opportunity to make your daughters day The Most Special!

    Outstanding Musician

    John was very responsive to my request for a musician. He arrived at the venue early and was set up before I arrived.

    John's performance was excellent! I would recommend him for your event.

    Book him NOW!

    John Mercier is an absolute dynamo, with an alacrity that you don't often see in a hired entertainer. He wasn't just our wedding after party singer, but was integrated INTO the celebration. He's not just a great singer, but he also plays myriad instruments, and he can dance! His smile, energy, and aura were infectious and he makes everyone feel as though they are having the time of their lives. I highly recommend this amazing performer as he builds his nascent business. You will not be disappointed.

    Johns the man

    Super nice, fun, and talented guy. Only plays 18 instruments though 😂. Played a nice long rendition of baby shark when my kids were requesting it like drunk hockey fans at our local Block party.

    Merciers Music's reply:

    😂😂😂 haha thanks so much Thomas! Wearing on your kids for you so you don’t have to do it is what Merciers Music does best 🙏

    Multi-talented musician

    John put on quite a show at our event ! His ability to play several different instruments including (but not limited to) piano, guitar, saxophone and harmonica and to sing with a voice that rivals any popular, professional that you hear on the radio really impressed our guests! John’s talent along with his comedic presentation was the perfect pairing for an unforgettable evening of fun.
