Mike and the band were GREAT! Everyone at the party was asking me where I found them and had nothing but compliments for the band! The band really elevated the atmosphere and made the event that much more special! I would definitely use Mike Knauf Music again! I highly recommend them for your party / event you will be very happy like I am!

Hired Mike and one of his fellow musicians to play at the end of my father's 'Celebration of Life" ceremony. They made a sorrowful occasion a bit lighter. My entire family was very impressed with their talent and professionalism. My brother asked, "Who is that and where did you find them? I'm going to keep that in my back packet and hire them one day! "

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 23, 2023•From Dundee, IL

Phenomenal experience! Mike was so easy to work with - responding promptly, extremely detailed and clear, and truly made the process of hiring a band to fit our exact needs seamless. They were the perfect addition to our German-themed party. Our guests we having so much fun dancing and singing that we ended up extending their performance time. They gave us an authentic German experience, were open and accomodating to song requests and extended time, and made the night special for our guest of honor. Highly recommend!

I booked the Mike Knauf Jazz Trio for a corporate event I had. Mike was very communicative with me ahead of the event and we got many details squared away. He and his bandmates arrived early to set up and were a pleasure to listen to and work with. I would highly recommend working with them and I found them on The Bash website.

Our guests thoroughly enjoyed this excellent group. Their wide variety of music was great, their sound was great, their showmanship was great - just an overall very professional and thoroughly delightful experience. We would highly recommend The Sandy Beach Band

The Sandy Beach Band is very talented. Mike and Bruce were great performers for our Beach Party at our Senior Center. Mike communicated well on expectations for the performance. They were very friendly and engaged with the group.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 25, 2023•From Chicago, IL

Mike Knauf and his band came to our college student banquet at Willis Tower in April, and they truly were the highlight of the night! Our Dean was so impressed and even said we need to rebook them, so hopefully we will be working with Mike and his band again soon. He communicated great - was very thorough and wanted no detail left missed. His familiarity with downtown venues was a bonus as he knew what questions to ask that I might not have thought of. The talent of the performers was superior in every way. Truly an event to remember. Thanks, Mike!

Mike Knauf Music was fantastic! They were unbelievably accommodating, professional, fantastic musicians, and wonderful people! I highly recommend having them for your next event. They showed up on time, played beautifully, and gathered their equipment in a timely manner. They are really talented musicians and I am so happy that they performed for us.

Nursing Home Event•Reviewed on April 27, 2023•From Chicago, IL

I had the pleasure of working with Mike at the last Senior Community I was working at, and I was so happy to have him at this event at my new community! Mike and his team are polished and professional. They have a breadth of skills and music styles that always get people excited and it was the perfect fit. He was punctual, engaging, and accommodating. He is a chameleon in terms of his ability to provide something for every type of event. I will certainly be bringing him back for future parties!
