I hired this band to play at my wedding a full year in advance. They were the only band I talked to and I pretty much hired them on the spot because they were very well priced, so incredibly nice and helpful, and of course sounded great and had the repertoire I was looking for. Even time I spoke to Ken, he expressed how excited they were to play at our wedding and it meant the world to me to have a vendor that cared so much. I could not have imagined having any other band at our wedding!
We are so happy that we hired the Jack Rabbit Slims for our wedding reception! Not only was the music great, but they were also very professional yet engaging with our guests. We danced until we dropped! And, the best part is, they let my 8-year old nephew play the drums for a while! He was so happy, and that was so nice of them. I'd highly recommend the Jack Rabbit Slims for any occasion and will hire them again. Great music, great talent!
Response from Jack Rabbit Slims:

Jack Rabbit Slims played at our daughter's wedding and were awesome! They kept the party going and the music was for all ages. They were easy to work with and very accommodating to make sure the bride and groom had their music choices for their special dances. Great fun. I would not hesitate to hire them again.
Response from Jack Rabbit Slims:
Thank you very much! We had a great time and give our best to the bride and groom!
Jack Rabbit Slims has played for the Camp Quality Telethon for the past three years. They are a favorite of the staff and our collections go up while they play. They have a great song selection and are always willing to accommodate whomever they play for. Bill B. Producer.

Saw Jack Rabbit Slims play at a charity event and they were FANTASTIC!!!
They really know how to get people out on the dance floor and a good time.
The spectrum of music they play was enjoyable to every age group in attendance.
We could have danced all night long. I like that they took requests and went out of their way to make sure everyone was having a blast, dancing and singing!
I would definitely book them when I have a party.
