Wedding Reception•Reviewed on March 28, 2011•From Santa Ana, CA
Wayne and all the guys were amazing. We hired them for our wedding of about 100 people and they had everyone dancing and smiling. Our photos from the day of the event show nothing but smiles on the dance floor. The venue only allowed the band to come an hour early but they wanted to come even earlier to be professional and on point with sound. They still did an exceptional job with only an hour to set up. I'd recommend Hooch for any event that you plan on having a good time with good music. They even learned how to play all our mother-son, father-daughter and first dance songs so we could dance to live music rather than CD. Hooch ROCKS!

Hooch did an amazing job at our wedding!! Everyone was dancing and had a great time the whole night - the band went above and beyond and was even playing random song requests, reading the music from a guest's iphone. I would recommend them to anyone, they are incredibly talented and great guys.

We had a great time with all the members of Hootch. They were easy going and very accommodating. They got the crowd up and dancing, even on stage! Our guests are still commenting on how much fun they were. The lead guitarist performed a few songs with our daughter. She couldn't say enough kind words about him!
We highly recommend Hootch.

Everyone from both myself and the groom, all the guests, other vendors and the staff at our venue could not stop gushing over what a wonderful job Hooch did at our wedding. They went out of our way to accommodate every single one of our requests and made the ceremony heavenly. My new husband and I have spent hours raving to each other about how talented the musicians were, it was the absolute highlight of the entire wedding. Hooch SERIOUSLY ROCKS. FYI, every single song they did was indistinguishable from the original version, except where they made it sound even better! BOOK EM!

I hired my buddy's band to celebrate my retirement. It was a great time watching them play. I had always heard about and seen pictures of the group, but now I know how great they are!!! I had a great time with the guys after their show was over also. Thanks Hooch. :)

We were so happy with Hooch playing at our wedding. We had only heard small samples of their music over the Internet so we basically went on crossed fingers that they were any good. During the entire wedding, everyone kept commenting on how great the band was. Furthermore, they accomodated any requests we had before the wedding and came through in the end. Each member of the band was sincere and helpful and we truely felt they wanted to make 3 hours of music the best 3 hours possible, AND THEY DID!! Thank you so much Hooch!

Hooch went all the way to help us have a great wedding. They played alt all of the requests we threw at them, and they came prepared. They planned many tunes in advance from our favorite groups. Hooch ranged from mellow classics in the early set to dance tunes, to hard rockers later in the evening. They made everyone happy, and we loved Hooch!

Hooch was a smash hit at our wedding. All of our guests from 12-92 years old commented on how good the band was. They have a great play list and were willing and able to perform requests.
We did not feel like we were just another gig to these guys. They listened to what we wanted and went above and beyond to accomodate our needs. They arrived early and in the 5 hour gig only took one 15 minute break. I've never seen that before. Hooch took this job seriously.
Hooch is not only a great band, but is also respectful, professional, accomodating and a lot of fun. Wayne, Charlie & Laurence are great guys and real gentlemen. We are extremely fortunate that we hired Hooch as our wedding band and highly recommend them.

2 words "Hooch Rocks". I had hooch play at my wedding this past weekend and man they turned it out. I gave them a song list which mostly consisted of Red Hot Chili Peppers, and boy did they jam. Everyone was complimenting all night on how much they sounded and played just like the band they were covering. Even the older crowd was impressed. All I know is that I am trying to find another excuse to have shindig so I can here them jam. Thanks Hooch you guys are sick.
Everett & Naomi
P.S Also their professionalism was unbelievable

We hired Hooch to perform for our birtday celebration. They were amazing!! They performed for a solid 4 hours, and played not only songs they knew, but all of our requests. Very nice people, respected all of our wishes, and put on a great show. We'll definately hire them again!

Hooch was a great band for our event. They played a lot of great music, and everyone was happy. They knew a lot of requests that people threw at them, and could go from mellow, to rock in a flick of a switch. Awesome group.
Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 28, 2007•From Rancho Cucamonga, CA
The band was excellent! Everyone said that this was the best party they had ever been too, the band HOOCH MADE the Party. They could sing just about anything. We loved them so much that we paid for 2 extra hours to keep them around longer. And at about 12:30am, we needed to quiet down a bit, so the lead singer grabbed his acoustic Guitar and played on the patio. He sang just about every request thrown at him.
It was truely a great experience, we highly recommend this band. The party was for a combined 30th and 50th birthday party...And all the guests loved HOOCH!!!!

This was the 2nd show Hooch has performed for us, and they were awesome once again! Their song list was totally different from the first show. We really enjoyed Goo Goo Dolls, Train, and The Doors!!
