    We searched for a band that would match our taste in music and theme. We wanted a band who would bring life to our party so guests will have amazing memories of our wedding party-- Big lucky fits perfectly. Very easy to work with- we were in contact through email and they always respond right away. A few weeks before the wedding we had a conference call to discuss and be on the same page on what we wanted and what they can offer. They will work with your request in terms of music. Our guests were dancing and enjoyed the party. Love their vintage style. They give you a list of songs you can choose from. Even added more of our preferred party music mixing my taste and my husbands. From our parents to our nephews and nieces who enjoyed and danced to their music. My relatives whom i would never see dance, they did and it was fun to watch everyone enjoying. Valerie was very organized, even though my coordinator (who did a poor job) sent wrong information, Valerie emailed me right away to confirm and asked me directly, I mean she really did an excellent job, Im thankful she confirmed with me and not the coordinator. The sequence of our reception wouldn't have been perfect if it wasn't for her. They even had a PA system and played their music while they were on breaks and had a wireless microphone when speeches were made. They were a sport even though it was a hot day, they still performed great regardless of the situation. We had fun having them as our band.

    Music was an incredibly important part of our wedding celebrations and we therefore spent a lot of time researching bands to play our cocktail hour, through dinner and into the first dance (for which we wanted a unique arrangement of a classic ballad). Many bands seemed okay on paper, but when we discovered Big Lucky, we instinctively knew that we had hit the jackpot. We needed performers who could set the right tone, from the very first song, letting our guests know that we intended to do some serious partying, but in a sophisticated and classy way! We also needed a band that could fit right in with our incredibly chic venue, Carondelet House. Big Lucky was the obvious choice, so we met with them for dinner, to discuss the event and how they could best accommodate our needs. Paul and Val clearly knew their stuff and were able to throw in ideas, without ever forcing them on us. They were incredibly respectful of the vision we had and were able to embellish that based on their wealth of experience. One such example was the New Orleans inspired marching line - a combination of brass and percussion that took us seamlessly from one part of the venue across to the DJ dance party. Paul and Val worked behind the scenes with our DJ to come up with a flawless transition that kept the party going. It was like a gold medal winning baton race! In short, hiring Big Lucky was one of the best wedding decisions we made. They nailed the music and were crucial players in helping us create the wedding party of our dreams. The only down side was not having enough time to enjoy their full catalogue - which gives us the perfect excuse to hire them again!

    Here's the band posing with a Model T at my event.

    I found Big Lucky on the internet and after never hearing them in person, was pleasantly surprised (and relieved!) that they are awesome. Paul was professional and communicative leading up to the event. On the night of they set up quickly and easily. The female lead singer (sorry I don't know her name) is talented and personable. She interacted with me when I needed to make announcements and was absolutely wonderful from the first song, to the last. I highly recommend the Big Lucky -- they made my event a success!

    See all

The studio owner and recording engineer is highly knowledgable and friendly. The studio staff are all very helpful and organized. Everybody really cares about their craft.

There are a wide range of instruments, microphones, and amps to choose from and the staff will help recommend what to use for the best result. If it's a longer session, there is a microwave and fridge to heat/store some food. Parking is on-site, free, and abundant. I give Hear No Evil my highest recommendation!

As an artist paying for studio time, that's incredibly distracting and disrespectful. I did not feel valued as a client.

UPDATED Feb 1-11:24pm After leaving this review, the owner Elliot messaged me AGAIN on Instagram. Took zero accountability and only cares about his image. NOT the client. To address your comment, I asked for a discount, cuz your interns run the session. As Indie artists we have to fight to protect a space we paid for. Often times we don't have other options in the area so we suck it up, but no more! This is not a good studio. I would not go back. Look at how he responds to feedback...

We truly cannot say enough great things about Dave and Samantha from Light Up Video. From start to finish, their professionalism, creativity, and genuine passion for their work blew us away. From our very first interaction, they were responsive, kind, and full of positive energy. They created a custom quote tailored to our unique event, which was not only more flexible than what others were offering, but also extremely reasonable. Their response time is quick and they're very transparent when it comes to pricing, timeline and what's achievable. Even though they're based in LA, they traveled to San Diego to capture our day and didn't balk at the initial reach out. That level of professionalism, attentiveness, and accommodation really set them apart from the many vendors we explored during the hiring process. Dave and Samantha brought a can-do attitude and sharp creative perspective that made the entire experience feel collaborative and exciting. They listened to our vision, offered thoughtful suggestions without ever pushing an agenda, and elevated the final product far beyond what we imagined. Samantha handled all the logistics and drone work with grace and precision, and Dave captured our elopement with an artist's eye.

Their punctuality and professionalism made everything feel seamless on a day of such high importance to us. We are BEYOND THRILLED with the final video.

    Working with Rene at Future Sound Studios was the best decision I made in 2018…read more The worst decision I made was using my drummer's boyfriend's studio. I had three great songs that I had written over the summer that I decided needed recording for my debut album. My drummer offered her bf's studio to record the band, which was cool at first. It ended up being a HUGE mistake--the drums sounded AWFUL recorded in his place. Small, tinny, behind-a-padded-wall sound. Out of sync totally. Not to mention his overall attitude was weird--it ended up being his session, not mine. I thought there was no hope for saving these records. And I still had yet to record my vocals. Luckily, we found Rene on Yelp. With his help, I was able to record my vocals and get the drums fixed to a T. Rene made my songs go from B-side 1960's crap small-studio sounding to 2019 sparkling, widescreen Katy Perry perfection. We also go the songs done relatively quickly. I was obviously a bit trepidatious going back into a studio after that last experience, but I shouldn't have been. Rene is very nice and personable, the opposite of what I experience so often in Hollywood. I felt comfortable in his studio the second I stepped foot inside. Rene and I are also on the same wavelength creatively--we both feel when a take is right and when it's not, when a song is hot and when it's not. He is very honest and will tell you the truth, which I appreciate. My favorite part of working with him is his sense of humor. I also respect how I requested no autotune on my voice and he actually listened--most other engineer/producers I've worked with laugh right in my face at that and never do it, they're too egotistical to ever let the singer make mistakes on their record. But he let me try it. Remember, as a mixer, masterer and engineer, his success is your success. He is a hard worker-I must have asked him for 40 files for TV and film placement purposes and he sent me every single one immediately. He is a walking plethora of musical knowledge. The actual room is small where I recorded, but it worked fine for me and my backup singer. If you really wanted to, you could cram a small choir in there, maybe a horn. Rene's studio is for overdubs, not bands. So, keep that in mind. Although he does have other rooms. Great, high-quality gear, too. Fantastic mics. Rene is awesome! I can't imagine going to anyone else to finish this album. Excited to work with him again. Would recommend! 10/10 ***check out edithviolette.com to hear the final product, will be out soon***
