March 16, 2026Best Wedding Band!
I am so incredibly happy with how great the music was for my wedding! I truly can't express how grateful we were for you and how easy you were to work with. Thank you! We will be recommending you to everyone and anyone looking for a live band or duo. They also learned how to play our wedding song as well and played a specific song as I walked down the aisle and went we kissed and walked back afterwards. Just a complete 10/10! (I tried to upload a video to this review but wasn't able to unfortunately)

April 1, 2026Awesome wedding band
James the manager was very professional, communicated well and often, and was a great resource to work with for our wedding. The band itself was awesome and kept us dancing all night long. It was the top rave review from all of our guests “what a great band”. It was also our favorite part of the night. We highly recommend them for your event too for an affordable live band.

March 23, 2026Perfect touch for a great event
The band was instrumental in creating the perfect vibe for a special wedding day. The music was perfectly paired with the various wedding activities which in this case made the time perfect even with various other ambient noise happening nearby.

May 26, 2025Exceeded Our Expectations
James is professional, kind, willing to do whatever we asked. He is a great communicator and follows through. The band did our ceremony music, cocktail hour, played super fun dance music at the reception, and MCd the whole wedding. We were so impressed and our guests loved them too!!

April 1, 2025Fabulous performance at Hotel Valley Ho wedding
We booked People Who Could Fly for our late March wedding at the Hotel Valley Ho about a year out. James was extremely professional from initial inquiry to the day before performing. He answered all of our questions and even learned my mom's favorite song for our wedding. The band brought more energy than I could've imagined, and the dance floor was never empty! They played songs from the 70s to modern day, and the setlist was so dynamic to the energy of the party. Our guests RAVED about People Who Could Fly all night and even days later asked where we found them. I couldn't recommend James and his band more -- if you're looking for a wedding band, you must book People Who Could Fly!!!
