Mike was the highlight of our Company Holiday Party! We love having him at our events and he always does an amazing job. He is so professional, fun, and talented. He provided a great assortment of music and was also happy to play requests from the crowd. We look forward to more events with Mike and Those Guys! Thank you for making our event so special.

We had the pleasure of first hearing Mike and his bandmates at a friend’s wedding. We knew we wanted him to play at ours. Mike was incredible from moment we called to book with him! We met for dinner and we had an amazing time. Mike truly took the time to get to know us as a couple. Mike was responsive and very helpful during our planning journey. He was always willing to email, text or talk on the phone as needed. On the day of our wedding, Mike MCed for the reception and did a great job. Mike and his bandmates were INCREDIBLE! Our families and friends LOVE to dance and everyone did nothing but rave about how amazing our band was! We couldn’t have had a better time!
:
Well....it's easy when the families you play for are awesome! Thank you both for trusting us, and for a wonderful night celebrating with the two of you. What a pleasure it was, and on behalf of my staff and my family all our best to the two of you!

Those Guys performed at our wedding and were the perfect choice. Mike was so easy to work with and helped make all of the planning simple and made me feel comfortable that we were in good hands. We had the trio perform, and at first I was nervous it wouldn't be enough but it was the best fit for our budget and it ended exceeding my expectations. Many of our guests commented on how great they were and they kept the party going all night. We are super grateful to have found Mike and Those Guys and would easily recommend them.

Our wedding day was already magical, but this wedding band took it to a whole new level. From start to finish, Mike was an absolute pleasure to work with and the band's performance was stellar across the board. If you're in search of a wedding band that will exceed expectations and add so much enjoyment to your special day - look no further. Thank you for making our wedding day the most memorable and musically enjoyable day of our lives! Cheers!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 27, 2023•From Guilford, CT
In addition to toggling communication between two schemers for the secret birthday party, they sang high leads that are challenging even for female vocalists to cover. While playing almost flawlessly. (Anyone who can pull off believable AC/DC and Journey vocals earns my respect.) Loaded in & out with ease and special flexibility, but played like beasts. Guests smiled and boogied -- including Pappy in his 80s. Big thanks to Mark, Fred, and Shane. Yup, dig Those Guys!

We love Those Guys! They were the perfect band for our 90's party. Mike and the band were so accommodating and crafted a perfect setlist and dressed 90's to go along with our theme. We cannot thank them enough for making our event so special and we look forward to working with them more in the future. Thank you, Those Guys!!

Those Guys were our favorite vendor to work with for our wedding. The communication was always there and they made us feel like they had everything covered. Our guests LOVED the band and danced all night long, seriously, the dance floor was never empty. They played a great mix of music for everyone. We highly recommend choosing them for your wedding!

Working with Those Guys on my wedding was an absolute pleasure. Mike was professional and easy to work with, handled all of our requests (processional/recessional songs, first dance, etc.) with ease, and all of our guest really enjoyed the music. We got a ton of compliments on the band, impossible to recommend them enough.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 4, 2022•From Branford, CT
I am extremely happy I hired Those Guys. From the beginning, Mike was super helpful, on top of things and pleasant. Mike told us at booking that he wouldn't be able to make it because he had another gig that night, which is always slightly nerve wracking-- when a vendor says "I can't make it, but here's my right hand guy" ...but all of the reviews are about that main person. It turned out that Mark and Fred were totally great, the band was excellent, great musicians, everyone danced, I can't say enough good things about them. I just feel badly that I had too much going on to thank them all individually. 10/10 recommend.
:
Thanks so much for the kind words Jane, and thanks for mentioning a shout out to Mark and Fred. I'm so lucky to have 17 absolutely fantastic musicians working directly with me to help our clients get everything they can imagine no matter what it is. We keep growing a little more every year, and we're so happy to serve great clients like yourself. All of our best to the both of you and many wonderful days ahead!

I can’t express how professional of a band they were from the moment I inquired about booking with them til the absolute last minute of my wedding reception. They REALLY care about making sure they understand your vision for your event, and they deliver! Mike was an absolute joy to work with in advance, and the musicians were top notch and very friendly. Showed up for set up before all of my other vendors. Played a wide variety of music, and all styles equally well. My guests were all raving about them. My husband and I were So happy with them!!!

Laura, thank you so much for taking the time to share your thoughts and for the kind words. On behalf of myself and all of my staff, we really appreciate you trusting us with the day. We had an absolute blast and wish the two of you many wonderful days together.

I truly cannot say enough amazing things about Those Guys. The sole reason my wedding went as flawlessly as it did was because of them. My coordinator got Covid two days before and I had to have a backup instead and honestly, I could've had Mike be my coordinator instead. He was incredible and kept everything running smoothly. He knew the perfect time to cue in or end songs and everyone absolutely loved them. HIGHLY recommend.

Those Guys were amazing. Mike was accommodating, organized and a pleasure to work with. He and the band made our day un forgettable. Mike accommodated all of our requests, was a great MC and went above and beyond from the moment we booked to after our reception was over. They performed a great jazz trio for our cocktail hour and the band kept our guests on the dance floor all night. Thank you Mike and Those Guys for helping to make our special day perfect.

Those Guys have exceeded all of my expectations for our wedding party. They had an incredible performance and kept the party flowing at all times! Their mix of music from oldies but goodies to todays hits kept everyone on the dance floor making new memories. In addition to being an excellent musician, Mike was an awesome MC, professional, and fun to work with. Our friends and family are already asking when our next party is going to be because Those Guys made the night THAT memorable! Can’t thank you enough or provide and higher recommendation or endorsement!
Thanks again!

Wedding•Reviewed on September 23, 2020•From South Windsor, CT
5 stars is not enough, Mike is by far the best person we dealt with for our wedding. When you have a wedding, you deal with so many people, it's a difficult time at a time when you should be enjoying it. The place we had our wedding was severely lacking in attention to detail & left us with no timeframes. Mike stepped up and helped us have a very special day with his attention to detail, awesome talent on the guitar and his professionalism. I love rock music and my wife loves Taylor Swift & emo groups- somehow Mike put together a playlist that had the best of both worlds. He wasnt just pushing buttons, he was a truly Master of Cermonies & we cannot thank him enough!

Mike and Those Guys were an absolute joy to work with. They take their jobs very seriously, but also know that it's about having fun and doing whatever it takes to make your event perfect. They saved the day on our wedding and went above and beyond simply playing music and providing entertainment. Mike helped sort out some issues with our wedding day setup and was an excellent liaison between the Maitre d and the rest of the vendors/staff. We cannot say enough about their support for us, and even if we weren't having a wedding we would want to be friends with Those Guys. Awesome job, 11 out of 10!!

My wife and I can not begin to say enough about Those Guys, they are truly the perfect wedding band. Their talent level, engagement with the crowd, and ease of process were just a few of the highlights that helped make them a vital piece of our special day. Micheal is fantastic to work with, you just can't find someone that is as easy to get along with and listens better to your needs. We would never hesitate to recommend their services and will surely keep Those Guys in mind for other events we have in the future.

Those Guys Entertainment delivered everything expected and so much more! I cannot express my gratitude and awe of how they added the perfect touch to the best day of my life! Mike was so warm, approachable, and easy to work with. The band rocked! It was such a joy seeing my whole family dance the night away to a variety of music. We were able to tailor-make our ceremony songs, cocktail hour, and reception. TGE provided microphones for the speeches, made important announcements, and ensured the night moved along according to plan. This band is seriously talented and I can't wait for an opportunity to hire them again! THANK YOU GUYS!!!
