The Love Revival Orchestra

About

Well hello there!

If you're currently planning a wedding you're probably frazzled, harried, worried about a million little details and your brain has probably lost the capacity to make any rational decision.

First of all, relax - everything's going to be just fine! And congratulations, you now have one less thing to worry about - entertainment!

Through the miracle of the internet you have found the most entertaining, original, high-energy, full-of-love act in the universe that is eager to work with you to cater your event to your specifications.

What makes the Love Revival Orchestra different?

If you're looking for your standard, run-of-the-mill wedding band struggling through the latest top-40 song and sounding somewhat tired and innocuous, the Love Revival Orchestra is not for you. But if you're looking for an exciting, young act with unparalleled energy - an act that is not just "going through the motions" but feels genuine joy and love entertaining and playing music, look no further.

The Love Revival Orchestra is happy to work with you to arrange ANY song in ANY style you can think of, but we specialize in Classic Rock from Billy Joel to the Beatles to Elton John, the Soul of Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and Otis Redding, feel-good motown and New Orleans party music that comes complete with parades. We also feature a vast array of very accessible original compositions guaranteed to get the party moving like no other.

We are a full service entertainment concept - we can provide classical guitar, piano or string quartet for your ceremony, fantastic original jazz quartet, quintet, etc. or Dixieland band for your cocktail hour. Our core band for your reception always starts at 10 pieces, including horn section and back-up singers and can go up from there. We can also provide DJ services in addition to the band, so you absolutely cannot lose.

Our attention to detail will guarantee a special day with spectacular memories that will last you a lifetime. Enjoy yourself and leave the work to us!

We are based in New York City, but more than just a New York Wedding Band - we're fully available for any spots in the northeast or mid-atlantic and could travel much further for special occasions.

Here's what our clients have to say:

The band was awesome, everyone loved their parade from the beach and their performance during the reception. Everyone was very professional and super helpful... - Christina Gshwandtner, Fete Weddings & Events - christina@feteevents.com, 850 303 2426


Many, many members said it was the best musical act we’ve ever had - It’s the first time I can remember that I did not hear a single complaint, and that’s saying something...
- Joanne Goldberg, Member/Entertainment Chair, Muttontown Country Club, LI, NY, 516-314-3855

The Love Revival Orchestra was an absolute highlight of our wedding celebration. Their funky tunes only added levity, fun and celebration to the party. We had them lead our guests from the beach, where we wedded, to our reception hall, where the band continued to inspire our guests in dance and song. I would highly recommend this band to anyone seeking a tight band who are also highly professional and fun.
- Sherr and Jon B.

The Love Revival turned our special day into something truly extraordinary - if you're looking for an entertainment package that will set your wedding apart from all others, you've found it right here!
- Nikki and Jeff M.

Big repertoire, great attitude, perfect vibe for a wedding or celebration of any type really...
- Joanne and Bentley W.

The Love Revival Orchestra is the quintessential wedding band - more fun and energy than you can imagine and accessible to all ages.
