Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 3, 2007•From Fairfax, VA
The Moonlighters helped to make my wife's surprise birthday party a huge hit and an event she (and I, and all of our guests) will remember with fond memories for a long, long time to come. It is very likely that I will engage the Moonlighters at a future family get together and I recommend them without hesitation.

We had a trio (not the full Moonlighters band) for my sister's engagement party, and they were fantastic! Punctual, friendly, and accommodating to all our needs. They played a great selection of music and everyone loved them. Thank you!

The Moonlighters were booked for our Corporate Holiday Party and they were absolutley wonderful! Going into our party, it was not expected that our employee's would likely get-up and dance..well, less than a quarter of the way through the evening, the dance floor was full and it stayed that way until the end of the night. All members of the band were professional and very accomodating, to our selection of music and in taking our requests on the fly. It's days later and I am still receiving emails about how great the band was. I highly recommend them as the perfect choice for top-notch entertainment for any event. We expect to hire them again for our party next year!

This was our 40th Autumn Glory Festival kick-off dinner. The band kept playing, the crowd kept dancing and we had the most positive feedback ever on the entertainment for the kick off dinner.

The Moonlighters simply ROCKED. Our crowd was up and dancing BEFORE they served dinner.
They met all of our needs and played the songs in the right order and at the correct times. Towards the end of the evening, they played Sweet Home Alabama right on cue. It brought the house down!
Our guests were amazed at their performance and we're still receiving great feedback from people weeks later.
The Moonlighters took our wedding to the next level. I would suggest them to anyone.
William Goldman and the band are top-notch professionals. We'll use them again.
Best,
Amos and Whitney Snead (Washington, D.C.)

The Moonlighters were fantastic, as always. This was a major open house for an estate in Baltimore County. They were extremely professional and sounded great. The Moonlighters certainly made this a distinct, memorable function.

Wedding•Reviewed on April 28, 2007•From Arlington, VA
We felt that The Moonlighters delivered their best performance and in the face of an unexpected communication break down they were able to perform a song they had not rehearsed for our first dance together as husband and wife. The Moonlighters were very professional and kind and the vocalist was outstanding. Our guests continue to comment on how great the music was at our reception. We did encounter problems, however, with the band's management that caused complications with our specific music requests that could have been avoided if we had been allowed to communicate with band members directly before our event. We would recommend The Moonlighters to anyone considering jazz, big band and blues music for their special event.
:
Thank you for your kind words and the "perfect" rating score. We sincerely apologize for the oversight. The band learned 5-6 songs specifically for this event, and we inadvertently failed to forward the most important request of all. Fortunately, the band knows hundreds of songs in a wide variety of genres and has the flexibility to learn new ones on a moment's notice. So what could have been a major problem with a less experienced band, appeared seamless to everyone in attendance. And we're very glad it all worked out in the end.

Fraternity Function•Reviewed on April 23, 2007•From Philadelphia, PA
These guys fit the bill perfectly for our Spring Fraternity Formal. Every suggestion/recommendation we had for them, they followed to a T, and they kept people on the dancefloor constantly. We gave them a direction to go in, as far as the setlist, and they took it from there, and we were not disappointed. These guys were some very talented musicians that played with a lot of soul, and if that is what you are looking for, then by all means book this band right now. The Moonlighters are highly recommended!

The Moonlighters were simply fantastic! They showed up early to ensure they were completely set and ready to go at the appointed hour. They were extremely professional and very accommodating to my guests' requests. I will most definitely use them for my future parties and highly recommend them!!

Dinner Dance•Reviewed on February 10, 2007•From Harrisonburg, VA
The Moonlighters were a wonderful group! We hired them for a black tie, Valentine dance which we held in our home. They had to start later than we had origionally anticipated, but they were very accomodating and got the job done. Our guest were delighted, every thankyou note we got in the mail after the party commented on how great the band was! We hope to use them again this summer for a large outdoor event!
Thank you for a job well done.

The Moonlighters were the perfect band for our wedding. From the ceremony, to the cocktail hour to the reception, their song selections and energy level were perfectly matched for the mood we were trying to set. They are incredibly talented musicians and entertainers and they managed to get all 150 people at our wedding up and dancing the entire night. Many of our guests have commented on how fantastic the band was and several guests expressed interest in booking them for other events. I would recommend them to anybody, without hesitation. Thanks to the whole band for making our wedding such a fabulous event!!!

Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 13, 2008•From Washington, DC
The Moonlighters were a great addition to our Christmas party and adjusted very well to a small and crowded room. Great sound from a small group and they were all very willing to accomadate the needs of their audience. Many compliments were given to the party planner in their behalf. It is obvious they enjoy what they do - it comes out in their music. They was jammin' and we was jammin' right along. Good Job!!!!

The Moonlighters were great. They were very professional, and helped us out with all the wedding announcements as well as playing great music. We received many compliments on how good the band was. If people weren't dancing, they had the reception chairs pulled up concert style to watch the guys play. Thaks fellas.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 16, 2005•From Galeton, PA
The Moonlighters travelled to a very rural area, far from their home base, to perform at our wedding. They were punctual, extremely professional, and worked well entertaining the crowd and getting even non-dancers on the floor. They are an extremely talented band, and we were very satisfied with every aspect of working with them.

Anniversary Party•Reviewed on July 2, 2005•From York, PA
I was really impressed that I didn't have to give them much direction as to the music to play. I told them initially what we wanted and they ran with it. MANY people from our party commented on how great the Moonlighters were and how many of them would like to have them play at their functions....Kudos to the Moonlighters.

Thank you so much. I did not get the opportunity to speak to the gentleman that played the sax at my daughter's ceremony. I want to relay that he contributed to making her day a wonderful success. I received many compliments on his performance. Thank you so much!

EVERYONE LOVED THE BAND! THEY PERFORMED AND ACTED VERY PROFESSIONAL. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH THEM. I WOULD RECOMEND THEM TO EVERYONE. THEY PERFORMED AT MY IN-LAWS 50TH ANNIVERSARY PARTY WHICH HAD THE 50'S THEME. THEY PLAYED EVERYTHING FROM THE 5O'S TO DISCO IN THE 70'S. EVERYONE WAS DANCING. THE PARTY WAS OUTSIDE AND WAS AN EVENING EVENT. JUST GREAT!
