Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 13, 2013•From Sarasota, FL
THANK YOU Funk Monster Band!! We loved every minute of your performance at our wedding reception. Literally every one of our guests was up on the dance floor. We absolutely loved your enthusiasm and talent. You were EXACTLY what we had dreamed of having at our wedding. I am a professional musician and hiring live musicians for our reception was imperative for us. We live in San Francisco and were going on recommendation alone when booking our band. I am beyond pleased. Our guests are still telling us how amazing our band was. Thank you so much. Next time we are in the area we will be at one of your performances!!

Wow is all I have to say! The Funk Monster Band exceeded our expectations! I had heard them previously at a friend's wedding, but have to say, they were even better than I remembered!
The groom and I were very concerned about having a fun and energetic band that would get people dancing and The Funk Monster Band delivered and more so! Our guests were all asking where we found them, details and loved every minute of it! We keep hearing from our guests how much fun they had and how much they loved the band, which is exactly what we wanted!
I would HIGHLY recommend using them and not to mention, professional, dependable, and so easy to work with!!

This band was the quintessential PROFESSIONAL band. If you are looking for a group of singers and musicians who are polished, who are the ultimate in being prepared, and in following your wishes, Funk Monster Band is the band. From the moment we hired them for our daughter's wedding through the last number, we were amazed at QUALITY. The room was filled with great music but NEVER too loud We would highly recommend this wonderful band to anyone who wants a first-rate band for a wedding or any other very special event.

This was a great gig for us. The Mishner family were truly outstanding and first class all the way. We were thrilled to perform at their daughters wedding. The joy it gave us especially during the hora and watching them being paraded around up high in their chairs. Even the mom got a ride, I don't think she really like that but it was so much fun. This was a fun group and really know how to throw a party and dance.
Thanks for the salmon and steak dinner it was great. The band

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 7, 2010•From Tampa, FL
A band for our wedding was my husband's only request and I was very reluctant, but realized it was about what WE wanted. They were easy to work with and they MADE the reception. They were very accomodating with our requests and even learned our song, Michael Buble's Everything for free. They were so kind and I danced to all but two songs. It has been a week since our wedding and I still have people saying that our band was so amazing and deverse. Friends said this was the BEST reception they have ever been to and that was all due to the performance of the Monster Funk Band. Thank you so much for making it the best reception EVER!!!

Event•Reviewed on June 18, 2013•From Dade City, FL
There was a pretty wide age range of the people attending our event and Funk Monster had something for everyone. They really energized the crowd. They were also very accommodating on some last minute special requests. I have had nothing but positive feedback from the committee and attendees. I would highly recommend this group...top notch!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 11, 2013•From Saint Petersburg, FL
Upon hiring Funk Monsters, we were alittle skeptical about hiring a band to sing our favorite songs that we have cherished for so long, but boy were we happy by the end of the night. Funk Monsters Band exceeded every expectation that we had for our special night. The Vocalists were incredibly talented, and the musicians hit every note in accord with one another. From the beginning, Richard accommodated every want and need and helped facilitate the whole night so it ran smoothly. There were no surprises or last minute changes(unless we requested them), and folks of all ages and backgrounds were up on the dance floor burning a hole in the carpet! Much thanks FMB!

Grand Opening•Reviewed on September 3, 2010•From Riverview, FL
This event was a Grand Opening for Winthrop Liquors. The band was so attentive and energetic. The community loved the band and asked for their business card many times.
I would hire them again and again for our next event.

This band was awesome, just awesome very professional and helped me so much with the planning stages. Every song we requested they played and was wonderful. They said they would make this my perfect day and they did. We dance almost every song it was amazing haven't danced that much since I was a teenager.
We are going to have a Christmas party and they are going to be our first choice.
Thanks so much Funk Monsters

Jeremy and I previewed Funk Monster Band at a small wedding and we were pleased with their performance and the way they were able to get even a small crowd moving. Our wedding was a little bit bigger and the band really did make our wedding! Our friends and family cannot stop talking about how much fun the band was and how great the MC was. We could not be happier with the performance.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 11, 2008•From Saint Petersburg, FL
The Funk Monster band was by far and away the best thing about my wedding. They played every song that I requested and the dance floor was always packed. I've personally never been to a wedding where so many people were on the floor. There was something for every generation and they interacted with the crowd and pulled people up there to play along with them. I have received multiple compliments about the wedding as a whole, but most people keep saying the same thing; "The band was phenomenal!" I would highly recommend them to anyone else who is looking to have the most fun wedding possible or for any other event you are planning. Thank you Funk Monsters!

I cannot say enough about how ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL it was working with Richard and the Funk Monster Band! They were a joy to work with and accommodated our every need! Our wedding included 300 guests at Saddlebrook Resort and the Funk Monster Band brought the house down! EVERYONE was raving about how fantastic they were - and we just LOVE LOVE LOVE them! I would highly recommend them for ANY event - especially if you want a knock out performance!

Wedding•Reviewed on May 17, 2008•From Clearwater, FL
The Funk Monster Band played for our wedding at the Hilton in Clearwater Beach, all of our guests were dancing and having such a great time. They learned several extra songs we had requested and we were really happy with how they performed them! Richard was a pleasure to work with and made the planning of our destination wedding so much easier. I would recommend the band for any event if you are looking for anything from jazz during dinner to high energy and a fun atmosphere as they are extremley versatile and great value. Thanks agian Guys, we had a brilliant day!

Wedding•Reviewed on October 6, 2007•From Saint Petersburg, FL
My wedding was on October 6, 2007. We had a wonderful time (as did all of our guests, many of them from out of town) thanks to the Funk Monster Band. They were very accomodating from the get go. We had special requests that were not on the song list and they were all played. I grew up working with a variety of entertainers in various resorts and this is one of the most talented groups I have ever come across. Everybody raved about them. I can't say enough, except this is the perfect band for any occasion. There is no question that for the next big event in my family, we will hire the Funk Monster Band.

The Funk Monster Band definitely has talent! From the ceremony music, the cocktail hour jazz trio and finally the entire band at the reception, I couldn't have asked for more! I received several comments from our wedding guests that the FMB was the best live band they'd ever heard at a wedding! I would recommend them to anyone looking for a rockin reception!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 13, 2010•From Saint Petersburg, FL
From the beginning of the planning process, through the end of the Wedding Reception, each member of Funk Monster Band was prompt, courteous, and very talented! They played a great mix of songs throughout the night, and the DJay played tasty dance songs in between sets. Everyone was dressed very nice and overall I recommend the Funk Monster Band to anyone.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 27, 2010•From Plant City, FL
The FMB was the very best band we have heard. On a short notice you came to the rescue. The Piano player "Art" was excellent for the cocktail set and really set the mood a real warm feeling.Then the High Energy selection of songs was perfect,just what we wanted. My husband was thrilled. Friends were dancing that I never saw dancing before and many didn't stop until the last song was over. All of our guests have done nothing but rave about how great the band was.If we had to do it all over again, we would book you guys without hesitation.Thank you for an enjoyable evening you made our party. PERFECT!
