COMPANIES THAT HAVE HIRED US: American Cancer Society/Coaches vs Cancer Mattel/Pleasant Company UW Madison Memorial Union UW Madison St. Paul's Catholic Student Center The Olds Company Marshfield Clinic City of Madison/Downtown Madison REVIEWS Bob and his musicians were fantastic! They learned Nights in White Satin by the Moody Blues and did a great job with it, even reciting the poem at the end. We loved their music for both the cocktail hour and the reception dance. Very generously, they let our friends borrow their guitar and keyboard so they could play their own songs. They also worked with the groomsmen on a spur of the moment song. I really enjoyed working with them and highly recommend them. Thank you Bob and crew!

Thanks to Bob's communications, we knew exactly what to expect. They're incredibly diverse and provided classical music for the ceremony, jazz music for the cocktail hour and fun dance music for the party. Guests were up and dancing the entire time. So happy we hired them! - August 14,2021 Marla F, Spring Green, WI (gig ID# 3963959) WEDDING DANCE REVIEW - June 26, 2021, THE MADISON CLUB, MADISON, WI by Eva G.: "Whoz Playing absolutely blew us away with their performance at our wedding! We had a lot of people from out-of-state at our wedding and a very young crowd and they kept everybody on the dance floor all night long. They were so accommodating, learning several new songs for us and even agreeing to play some music for our ceremony at the last minute. We could not have asked for a better band. If you’re considering Whoz Playing, book them immediately! Happy to give a reference!" THE KNOT WEDDING DANCE REVIEW "Bob and his musicians were absolutely above and beyond amazing! Not only were they amazing performers to listen to they were extremely professional. EVERYTHING they did EVERYTHING we requested of them was done in the grace and class that would be expected from such amazing performers. Thank you so very much Bob and your band for EVERYTHING you did to make our daughter and son-in-laws wedding day so extremely special. The music was loved by ALL ages and Bob was right when he said people may dance during cocktail hour, well he was right, we did!! Thank you again so very much. Absolutely one of our greatest decisions to hire Whoz Playing!!!!!" Review by Judy B. FROM LA CROSSE, WI ON 7/7/2018 WEDDING WIRE WEDDING DANCE REVIEW "Energetic, kept us on schedule and so fun! Everyone enjoyed the band, from the young crowd to our parents and grandparents. They were great with communicating with us and learned a few songs from our list just for us! We highly recommend Whoz Playing for any event, especially your wedding! Fun and talented group!" Sent on 08/23/2019 Kara S, married on 08/03/2019. Rating on Wedding Wire 5.0 out of 5.0

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 31, 2018From Cashton, WI

Hire this band today! They were awesome! They were great to listen to (not everyone at our reception wanted to dance) but they were great to dance to as well! Super professional, talented, and all-around awesome! I know that we will be bringing them back to our community for other events. Everyone was so impressed! The band has been the talk of the town for weeks! THANK YOU so much to the group- you were the BEST! The saxophone added class and talent as well! I highly recommend this band!!
