Core memory unlocked

Do not pass Tidal Wave up. If you're thinking about it, do it! You 100% will be so happy about going with them. Tidal wave was so professional, accommodating, and easy to work with. You can call John 'the bride whisperer,' they are literally the best! I had to change my venue/location/plan about three months before the date, even the time changed a lot closer to the date. They were awesome and were able to easily change things for me. Ya'll they even played FOR MY WALK DOWN THE AISLE!!!!

Best Band Ever!

Can't recommend Tidal Wave enough! They were professional, punctual, and so much fun. We had some crazy weather blow through our outdoor wedding, which complicated second lining - but the band adapted and did a beautiful job! We had the most fun and special day ever and Tidal Wave certainly was a big contributor to that. Thank you Tidal Wave!!!

A Brides favorite thing to hear "Don't worry, we got this!"

Tidal Wave brought the party!! I am so glad I chose Tidal Wave for my Second Line at my wedding. They handled all the permitting, police escort and route planning so I didn't have to lift a finger. When I called to confirm, they assured me I didn't have to worry about a thing and THEY MEANT IT. I trusted them completely and they were absolutely top notch. Showed up early, brought the house down and then out to the streets we went. Everyone was dancing and singing along to the songs they played as we partied through the quarter. Safe to say Tidal Wave made my dreams come true. I am so grateful to them and would recommend, nay INSIST, that anyone looking to hire a brass band should look no further.
