    Sound Connection ROCKED!

    We used Sound Connection for our wedding and couldn’t be happier. The band was absolutely incredible. They had every guest up and dancing and showcased both range and versatility across an extensive set list. They did a FANTASTIC job learning our first dance song (That’s How Strong My Love Is by Otis Redding) and killed it the entire night. We received so many compliments and only wish our reception went longer so they could have played another hour or two. True professionals; WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

    Kushner Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you so much, Matt and Ariel, for your wonderful review! We had a blast having SoundConnection perform for your wedding and wish you all the best!!

    Awesome experience with SoundConnection

    SoundConnection was superb! Every wedding guest commented on how awesome they were. They were engaged and got our guests out of their seats and on the dance floor. The vocals were amazing, and the entire band was epic. We loved it when they got on the dance floor and right in the middle of the action. We highly recommend SoundConnection and they would be the first band we would use in any future event.

    Kushner Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you so much Paul! It was such an honor and pleasure to play a part in such a wonderful milestone for your family and friends!

    We danced all night!

    We booked the band Sound Nation for our wedding in November based on a recommendation from my sister who had seen them perform a wedding in the past. I am SO glad we did! One of the best decisions we made for our wedding day! The dance floor was full throughout the night and I constantly had people approaching me about 'how good they are' or comments like 'these singers voices are amazing!'. Sound Nation was also very helpful to work with upfront. The band manager, Earle, connected with us in advance to discuss the timeline for our wedding and any details we wanted. We were able to specify songs we'd love to hear and those we'd prefer not to - and Sound Nation 100% stuck to this! They really and truly made our wedding, I can't say enough good things! I myself was dancing the whole night too (and the groom!), it was a blast... which is exactly how we wanted to remember our big day! Thank you for the memories!

    Kushner Entertainment's reply:

    Hi Tara, We're so happy that you had such a great time with SoundNation!! It is truly an honor to be able to have been such an important part of such a big day for you!

    Simply the best!

    The Wave was incredible! All of the musicians are so incredibly talented and brought amazing energy to our wedding reception. Our friends raved about how great the music was and how much fun they had dancing. They played everything from current pop hits to Motown. Thank you to The Wave Band and Kushner Entertainment for making our wedding band dreams come true!

    Sound Connection

    We had the pleasure of working with Andy and the Sound Connection band for our wedding this past weekend. They were absolutely fantastic! The band had everyone on the dance floor from the moment guests entered the tent and throughout the reception until we finally had to end the night. It felt like one epic dance party which is exactly what we had asked for! Guests couldn’t stop talking about how incredible the band were so we are so thankful to have made the choice to go with them. Thank you so much!

    Kushner Entertainment's reply:

    Thank you Katie, for your wonderful comments! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to be a part of yours and Alex's big day...we wish you all the best!!

    The BEST BAND EVER!!! Kushner Entertainment and Sound Connection

    Our daughter got engaged on 1/1/20. We saw a video of Sound Connection online and immediately knew that Sound Connection was the band for us. We booked them immediately. Then came COVID. Plans had to change, small wedding at our house, but we we knew that we were going to have a wedding reception in 2022 no matter what. OH MY GOODNESS, it was worth the wait just to be able to have Sound Connection play at the reception! Every single guest at the wedding wanted to know who the band was. Everyone danced ALL night long and it was magical! Sound Connection is like no other band I have ever heard and I've been to ALOT of celebrations with bands. Their energy, voices, enthusiasm are beyond incredible and they are true performers. If you want a top notch band that will make your wedding celebration the best celebration ever, look no where else! We cannot wait until we have another joyous occasion so we can make sure that Sound Connection is there to celebrate with us. Andy Kusher, their manager, is a joy to work with. Icing on the cake!

    “Best Band Ever”

    Sound Connection performed — and our crowd loved them. Their showmanship matched the quality of their play. We were especially glad that they played such a variety of music as our crowd covered age brackets across four decades. Whether it was Motown or rock or contemporary tunes, there was something for everyone.
    The best part was when the lead singers left the stage and interacted with everyone on the dance floor. It was great—they really brought the guests to their feet.
    This is the Band you want for a memorable experience.

    Planner here! Love working with Pop Culture Strings. Tong is very responsive and made sure all the musicians had everything they need for the performance. I would highly recommend them.

    Amazing band and great experience

    We were beyond happy with Sound Nation's performance at our wedding. They truly did a fantastic job and made our day so special. Leading up to the wedding, Andy and his team were helpful in planning and super responsive to questions and concerns. Can't recommend them enough and would do it all again!

    Sound Connection

    We recently used Sound Connection for our wedding. We hired keyboard and vocals from our ceremony and were blown away by the execution! We had guitar and electric sax for our cocktail hour and got so many compliments on their awesome set list and sound. Furthermore, the full band who played at our reception were INCREDIBLY talented and so many people expressed it during the wedding. The band members were fun, chic and friendly and even encouraged me to sing with them which made for such a special moment. They were interactive, approachable and a true joy! Communication with Andy throughout was professional and consistent which we really appreciated! Thank you!

    Fun, Talented, Easy to work with!

    Rhythm6 was incredible! They are so talented, warm, and so fun to watch perform. Working with their manager Andy was so easy and I didn't have to worry about a thing the day of the wedding which is what every bride needs. I highly recommend them for a diverse crowd of all ages who love to sing and dance have a great time.

    Fantastic Wedding Band

    We had the Wave at our wedding reception and we couldn't have been happier with their performance. They really new the crowd and kept the night moving perfectly. All of the ladies feet hurt the next morning because they spent too much time on the dance floor. :)

    Soundconnection

    SoundConnection was hands down the best part of our wedding. If you are looking for a band that will bring the energy and keep your guests dancing all night long, this is the band for you! Months later our guests are still talking about how great our band was. We would choose them a million times over. Well worth every penny!

    Rhythm6 is the best

    We had Rhythm6 at our wedding reception (~225 guests) and couldn't have been happier. All of our friends and family were amazed by them - their presence and performances! We had a long program prior to the start of dancing with many speeches and dance performances and they did a lovely job MC'ing the whole thing. They then played our final choreographed dance and we invited the party to start. It was a blast. They really know how to create a party! They were more expensive than our original budget but worth every penny. We actually hired them because they played at the wedding where my now-husband and I met so that was extra special.

    Bottom line: have Rhythm6 at your wedding if you want the best dance party of your life!

    Blown away!

    SoundConnection completely crushed it at our wedding- our only wish was that the reception was longer! they are amazingly talented and really vibed with our crowd the entire evening. They were flexible with playing the music and styles we requested, and more. They really brought our wedding night to life! Don't hesitate to book them!

    The entire AKED experience from booking to end of the event was amazing! It's very much a bespoke service. They really listen to what you envisioned for your wedding and put together something to fit you. Natalie and Lauren made the pre-wedding planning seamless. My husband and I really trusted that they understood our vision. Natalie proposed the Thad Wilson Jazz Quintet for our wedding and boy did they nail our vision! Thad and the band were simply marvelous! Thad has an amazing voice and really listened to our specific requests. Several of our guests thought Thad really sounded like the original artists that he was covering. Natalie not only played the cello for the ceremony but also learned a Chinese folk song just for us for our Chinese wedding tea ceremony. My only regret was not having our wedding photographer take a photo of us with Thad, Natalie and the band! Talk to AKED! They will design your entertainment better than you can envision it!

    Sound Nation put on an amazing reception for our wedding. Their talent, energy and understanding of the crowd was top notch. Everything was perfect!

    The Andy Kushner team was so organized and easy to work with. Their communication and comprehension of the style and vibe for the night was fully understood and implemented perfectly. Wish we could do it all again!

    Gone Vogue and the Andy Kushner Group are absolutely amazing. They exceeded our expectations and our friends and family are still raving about how amazing they were. Most wedding bands are fun, but Gone Vogue is not only fun, they are incredibly talented!! These girls deserve to be on a bigger stage than my wedding, but I am so happy that they were there. We would book them again in a heart beat.

    ?Sound Nation was a wonderful band for our wedding, and we received numerous comments and compliments from our guests. I was especially impressed by them not only for their range of music they were able to perform, but also their willingness to play so many songs that we requested before hand. They were able to perform so many of the songs and music that we really wanted to hear, and were even willing to learn a song or two for our special dances with our parents. I requested to hear a specific Jimmy Buffett song for the dance with my mother, and they delivered, and it was such a special moment. They also played a wide range of variety - from LMFAO and Bruno Mars, to Michael Jackson and Taylor Swift, to Hank Williams Jr and Zac Brown Band. They were an amazing live band, worked well together, played more songs than I thought they would, and as I mentioned, were very gracious to play so many requests that we had. If we were to hire a live band for another event, we would absolutely ask Sound Nation to join us.

    The entire experience from start to finish was amazing! Leading up to the event, the team worked with us to make sure they understood our vision, provided suggestions, and helped to craft a timeline that helped the event to flow. The band was nothing short of amazing - the dance floor was packed the entire night and we have received MANY compliments on how great the band was!

    There are not enough positive comments that could be said about the Andy Kushner team and Rhythm6, and how the team helped make our day so special. The coordination for the event ahead of time was seamless and the actual event blew us, and our guests, away -- honestly, our guests are still talking about how amazing Rhythm6 was! The band was fun to work with, receptive to all types of new ideas (between new songs and our entrance to the main ballroom) and the energy in the room from the moment they stepped on the stage until the last song was more than we could have imagined or hoped for.

    We loved working with Andy Kushner entertainment and Rhythm6! From my first call with Rebecca to scouting out Rhythm6 during a rehearsal to dancing the ENTIRE night away during our wedding, we were in the best of hands throughout the process. During our first call, Rebecca took 30 minutes to learn more about mine & my husband's relationship to determine which band she thought reflected our personalities. She also met us a few weeks before the wedding to discuss our vision for the party and provided recommendations, which were greatly appreciated. Emails and phone calls were always returned within 24 hours by the AK team. And lastly, we LOVED the band's song choices, skills, and overall energy! Our guests also loved the band as much as we did! We thoroughly enjoyed working with the entire Andy Kushner team and wish we could party with the band every weekend!!
