These guys were phenomenal!

Mark was very professional to deal with, responses were quick, and they were punctual. We've hired many bands for events and Wait What has been the best. They were very accommodating with their playlist and took requests when possible. Everyone at the event absolutely loved them! We would definitely book them again- very fun time!

Best band, best music, best people!

Wait, What? played at our daughter and son-in-law's wedding reception and they were absolutely amazing. Great musicians, amazing song list, and just all-around fun people! Everyone at the reception was on the dance floor having the time of their lives. One guest even commented that she was at a freakin Rock Show! Thank you, Mark, Kenzie and Tommy for making it a truly unforgettable night!

GREAT band even better people

I’ve know this band for sometime now that we have become friends. I try to see them everytime I can when they come to our city. They play all the music we know, love and grew up with. They add fun humor to thier set to separate them from most other bands to really add to the fun they bring. We even used them for our “Rock Show” wedding reception and they were so accommodating, professional and really separated our reception apart from any other I’ve ever seen. They are so versatile and musically talented and honestly a MUST SEE!
