Review by Kat H.

Retirement PartyReviewed on August 11, 2025From Jersey City, NJ

I booked the Liftoff Brass Band to celebrate my husband's surprise retirement/birthday party which was held at our condo rooftop indoor/outdoor space. We then turned the surprise on our guests and revealed that we had recently eloped. We wanted to recreate a New Orleans second line wedding celebration and they were great to collaborate with to make it happen. Professional, talented musicians, and the nicest guys! They elevated our party to a next level of fun and excitement! Most of our guests had never experienced a live brass band and they were blown away! I would highly recommend for any event!

Liftoff Brass Band:

Thank you for inviting Liftoff Brass to perform at your event. We enjoyed being part of the celebration!

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on October 22, 2023From Bronx, NY

Could not have asked for a better experience from booking to the birthday bash. Liftoff were the perfect size, perfect vibe, perfect repetoire, sll around perfect fit for our party. And such nice guys- we were all so happy they were a part of this super special occasion. They made it unforgettable for all, and our guest of honor was over the moon.. she quite literally was lifted off her feet. (Seriously!) Amazing. THANK YOU GUYS!

Liftoff Brass Band:

Thank you for inviting Liftoff Brass to provide music for the party, and the epic second line by the riverside. We're glad to know the guest of honor was lifted! We're looking forward to the next one!
