Our wedding would not have been as amazing had we not gone with Connexion Band. They played at my cousin and my sister's weddings so I knew they were excellent. But, didn't realize just how wonderful until our wedding. During the entire process, Ray was extremely easy to work with and very accommodating, they even let my dad sing some songs with them, he was in a wedding band most of his life and he thought they were excellent as well and loved singing with them! I have gotten so many compliments and people asking for the bands name since our wedding. We chose to trust the band with the playlist and not veto or choose any songs and the dance floor was crowded all night. It was truly amazing, they even kept playing until 5 minutes after the agreed upon time, we loved that they helped us keep the party going, it was so fun!! Connexion band is full of members that are extremely talented, high energy, and ready to put on a great show. They also provided a guitarist for our ceremony and it really helped to add a special touch and was so beautiful. read more

BEST DECISION EVER! We highly recommend booking Connexion Band for your wedding if you want a packed dance floor and a fun night. The band killed it! From the very beginning, they were incredibly helpful during the planning process and made everything so easy and stress-free. Communication was excellent throughout. Any questions we had were answered promptly and clearly, and they truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was just right. The performance itself was absolutely amazing. The band brought such incredible energy to the night. We've received so many compliments from our guests about how great the music was and how much fun they had. We were married on June 21st and still have friends and family asking us for the name of the band for recommendations! The setlist was perfect, and their talent as musicians and entertainers really shone through. They played a variety of songs from different genres and kept the dance floor packed all night long! They gave a great show and were really easy to work with. They even played a lot of our favorite songs without us having to ask! A special shoutout to Ray, who was awesome to work with - professional, friendly, and super organized. He made us feel completely confident going into the big day and delivered beyond our expectations. The emcee was fantastic as well and kept the flow of the evening smooth and engaging. If you're looking for a band that will elevate your wedding and create an unforgettable experience, this is the one. We can't recommend them highly enough! You won't regret booking Connexion Band! read more

The Connexion Band will absolutely make your event the talk of the town! We had seen them perform a few times at a fundraiser dinner, so we knew they were good, and therefore had high expectations for them going into our wedding day...they blew through those expectations and made our wedding day absolutely perfect! From the moment we began working with Ray, Connexion was completely focused on making our reception memorable and personalized! The dance floor was so packed, we asked them to play an additional 30 minutes past their set list. Ray, and the entire band, were flexible with every request we had for them (including traveling from Chicago to Columbus), and made planning our reception so easy. You and your guests will not be disappointed if you book the Connexion Band for your event! read more

This is the email I sent to Ray after my wedding to thank the band! They are all so talented and I am so happy I was able to book them for my wedding!! " Dear Ray, We had to send an email to rave about your band. First of all, thank you for being so responsive and easy to work with throughout the planning process. You really made everything so smooth and stress-free, you were very reliable, and I knew I could trust you with the last minute changes. Second of all, I have never had so much fun at a wedding in my life (granted I am a little biased). Your band had EVERYONE (old and young) on the dance floor from start to finish! Even during intermission, people were STILL on the dance floor waiting for the band to come back! Third- the vocalists and musicians were fantastic! We were blown away by the range of talents, and loved how they alternated lead singers for different songs. From the rapping to the ballads, the Connexion band covered it all! Fourth- We loved the songs that the band played! We appreciated the mix of old and new! I can't tell you how many people have also complimented the band. We have been receiving texts/phone calls from people asking the name of your band and how we found you guys (we originally saw your band at someone else's wedding and knew we had to have you for ours). Last- We honestly cannot thank you and all the members of the band enough. You made the day so special and one we will always think back on and smile about." read more

Connexion Band - Performing Arts Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

OMG, I can't recommend Connexion enough. My daughter got married Sept. 18, 2021 and after a lot of interviews settled on Connexion. We had never seen or heard them live. Well, let me tell you they are awesome. Awesome and extensive playlist. Great emcee to introduce the couple and start the party. They kept the party going. The dance floor stayed packed the entire time. Everyone at our wedding kept telling me that they were the best band they've ever seen at a wedding and so much more fun than a DJ. All ages had fun. I highly recommend Connexion and Ray was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was responsive and reminded us of dates and times. They also worked around our timing of having the ceremony and reception in the same space, so they set up and did sound check in record time. If you need a band for any function in the Chicago area they should be your first choice. read more

This band lied to us repeatedly, breached the contract and left us without a band twelve days before our wedding. Then, after the contract was canceled verbally, via email, and in writing, they still tried to take our money. They lied about being willing or able to learn our music, though neglected to inform us about this until we asked specifically, two weeks before the wedding, if they had taken a look at the music for our first dance. We wouldn't have found out otherwise that they never learned it until the actual night of the wedding. They also demanded that they get literally half of the parking spaces in our parking lot and refused to compromise. All of our other vendors--even the entire catering team-- was willing to take 1 parking spot, but the band manager demanded 13. The contract merely states that we had to provide "parking validation for band vehicles" and without defining either "validation" or how many band vehicles they were bringing, when he demanded this many spaces, he breached our contract. This ended in a very heated phone conversation in which Ray suggested that we cancel the contract, twelve days before the wedding. Ultimately, we found three other bands that were available the night of my wedding and had a great wedding. But this didn't stop Ray from suddenly threatening legal action against us, or from trying to cash the last check we had written him a full 24 hours after he received our written cancellation (a week after the email cancellation). The entire experience was horrible and still turns my stomach. Hiring this band was the worst decision we made in the wedding planning process and I hope no bride or family has to go through what we went through. read more

Can we give Connexion Band more than 5 stars?! Ray and this band of seasoned, talented singers and musicians who have been together for years provided the best music and dance experience! We hoped for a packed Dance floor at our daughter's wedding and Connexion delivered performances that kept the dance floor full of dancing, singing, pure joy! They learned a special song for us, they honored our requested songs and they performed songs that fit the vibe! They say they perform songs "note for note" and it's true! Ray mc'd when needed and was so easygoing to work with throughout the year of planning! Hire this band if you want to dance all night, even longer because yes, the guests chanted "one more song" and they played an encore! At a wedding reception! That was a first for us to experience! We are still hearing from our guests... "A-plus", "the band kept everyone involved", "it was like a concert", "they know so many songs", "is that the new Dua Lipa song", "so many amazing singers". I have never felt so strongly about a review....Connexion Band is 5 star plus! Thank you. read more

Connexion is the absolute best band for your wedding! They are professionals in every sense of the word, and I could not recommend them enough. Our wedding guests are still talking about them. Their music, personality, professionalism, sound system, etc. was all perfect. A++! THANK YOU!! read more

Connexion Band was referred to us from a co-worker. We booked them for our May 13, 2017 wedding at Trump Hotel Chicago. They were unbelievable. There were 4 singers so it was non-stop through the whole reception. The music genres are diverse...rock, pop, country, easy listening, the classics and top 40. The ceremony and cocktail/happy hour musicians are additional. We opted only for the ceremony pianist. I was a little preoccupied but I didn't hear any negative comments so I think everything was great. I was disappointed that they didn't provide any audio equipment for the Reverend. Ray was very patient with us through the ceremony planning. Almost 2 months later and guests are still talking about our reception and the music. Bravo to the band! read more

The Connection Band played at our wedding reception in December 2017. We thoroughly enjoyed their music and received many compliments on the band, even long after the event. They customized a playlist for our preferred style made up of a combination of requests and their picks that fit well. They have an extensive repertoire and would be able to do that for many genres and tastes. They even played a song I asked for that was not on their regular list. They also provided a solo keyboard player to provide background music during dinner. The electricity went out at our reception just before the band was to go on stage and they were prepared to go without electronics if needed (the power came back on). They provide good value for the number and quality of musicians at their price. The band leader Ray is friendly. And the Connexion band provided entertainment to celebrate the reason we were there without making themselves the focus or using our event to promote themselves. read more

The band rocked our wedding, so good! Very reasonable, worth every penny, and so wonderful to deal with as well. Thank you guys again! read more

It blows my mind to think what some people will pay for a good live band in Chicago (I actually thought all hope was lost when I began searching for bands during the wedding planning process...I thought we were for sure doomed to a DJ with our budget). Enter the amazing, incredible, and affordable...Connexion Band! We booked the Connexion Band for our June wedding, solely based on referrals from my husband's family (who had used them for countless family weddings). I was a bit skeptical about never hearing them before our big day, but I could NOT have been more impressed!! The musicians were extremely talented, and the dance floor was packed the entire night...myself included. During the planning, they were open to recommendations for songs we did and did not want to hear, and ended up playing such a great mix of new and classic songs. I am STILL getting asked by friends where we found the band. Ray was extremely easy to work with, quick to respond to any email, and just downright friendly. Would recommend in a heartbeat. read more

The Connexion Band performed at our wedding in September 2019 - it's December and we're still getting compliments on how great the band was! They were professional, polished, energetic, and they sounded amazing! They cover a wide range of musical genres and know how to plan out a set list that really keeps people dancing all night. The band manager, Ray, was great to work with and all our special requests were accommodated. We would hire them again in a heartbeat! read more

We just had our wedding last weekend (10/6/2012) and the Connexion band absolutely made our night. We ran behind on our schedule for getting through dinner and speeches, so Ray (the bandleader) asked me how the band should approach their opening. They ended up playing with one break the whole night, and the dance floor was completely packed all night. We got so many compliments from our guests about how good the band was. They mix up their vocalists based on which song they are performing, and feed off the crowd's energy. We gave them a list of songs we would like them to perform, and even a few to learn, and they nailed each one. I cannot compliment these guys enough, I only wish we booked the reception hall for longer so they could have played later. My brother in law had a band play his wedding 5 years ago, and they were nearly double the price as the Connexion band, and he agrees that this band was considerably better. Great mix of slow and fast songs, old and new, kept every age group happy, would 100% recommend them to anyone. Thanks again guys! read more

When you tell your wedding guests that you are having a live band perform it sets the expectations for an awesome night. Ray and the Connexion band turned the level up to 11 and had everyone dancing the night away. They had a great sound, lots of energy and knew all the right songs to play. From the moment I picked up the phone to enquire about availability and pricing, Ray was informative, professional and excited about music. Which is perfect. I love music and really love talking with musicians. They knew the venue from past events and directed me to their website featuring an ever updating playlist and samples. Your question is answered before you even ask. At the reception, they were on time, emcee-ed the evening with the bridal party entrance, prayers, music intros and garter toss, bouquet toss. Our special song requests were fulfilled and the rest of the music selections I left up to the band. Ray gauges the crowd and plays just the right song to get people dancing. No request is too ridiculous for the Connexion Band. It was game 7 of the Hawks-Red Wings playoffs on the same night of our reception. I emailed Ray on Thursday before the wedding to ask if they would play Chelsea Dagger if and when the Hawks would win. After the triple OT win against the Detroit Red Wings one of the band members donned his Hawks sweater and Chelsea Dagger was blasting! All and all a great night! I got married, I had this awesome band playing for us and the Hawks went to the Stanley Cup Finals! Thanks Ray and your fabulous Connexion Band! read more

My husband and I got married on November 24th! We hired the Connexion Band because we had seen them before at a friend's wedding and adored them! To say the Connexion Band was the highlight of our wedding, is an understatement!! There wasn't one point in the night that the dance floor was empty. The band made sure our day was exceptional, and our MC was phenomenal! She checked on Zach and myself multiple times, and made sure everything was running smoothly. We had countless people tell us how amazing our band was, and I'm sure it will be talked about for years to come! We hope we can experience the Connexion Band many more times for years to come! We would, without a doubt, recommend the Connexion Band to anyone for their special day/ event! read more

If we could give Ray and the Connexion Band ten stars, we would. From start to finish, a professional, FUN experience. Contract was straightforward , pricing more than competitive. Night of the reception they we phenomenal. Every age group was dancing. ALL NIGHT LONG. I don't think there was a time when the dance floor was empty the entire night. The music was excellent. Went above and beyond. Allowed a few people to sing a little---nice touch. Really related to our group. Highly recommend. We will use them again. read more

I'm struggling to come up with words to adequately describe how memorable The Connexion Band made our wedding reception. The dance floor was packed the entire reception...all the way to the very last song. I found myself almost wishing for a so-so song so I could stop dancing for a minute to drink a glass of water, but they were on fire all night! How often do you see the waitstaff dancing in the hallways at a reception? I know, seeing it was a first for me too! The interaction between the band and our guests only added to the fun. Even during the band's break, they were on the dance floor dancing to pre-recorded music. We had so many guests raving about The Connexion Band and saying they had never heard a live band perform like that, especially at a wedding. Best decision we made in wedding planning was booking The Connexion Band. And let me tell you, working with Ray is a pleasure! Such a great guy and band to work with. This band really is the best! I am recommending them to everyone I know and continue providing their name to the numerous guests from our reception that are asking for it. Bottom Line: A band can make or break your reception. The Connexion Band will more than make the reception. read more

The Connexion Band is the best in Chicago!! If you are in need of wedding or party band book this band as you will not be disappointed. Months after my wedding people are still commenting on how great the band was. One friend even referred to my wedding as "the one with the awesome band". My guests were on the dance floor the entire night and at the end even begged for them to play longer. Now for the details. The Connexion Band is wonderful to work with. Unlike other bands who will give you a long hard sell, the Connexion Band lets their talent speak for them. They let my husband and I come hear them at another wedding and we were very impressed. We talked to the Groom at that wedding and he was also full of praise. They were also easy to work with through email which I appreciated since I prefer email to phone. One concern I had going in was if the sound of the band would be too loud for my venue given their size. My reception (of 150 people) was in a good size room but it had low ceilings and no stage. As a result, I was concerned that the band would over power the room. I talked to Ray about this and he assured me the sound would be full but not overpowering and he was right. During my first dance with my Dad he even commented on how great the band sounded. The band is also great reading the audience and picking music to suit. I gave them two songs I didn't want played and gave them free reign for the rest of the music. I would recommend this as they are wonderful at putting a great set together. Finally, if you are at all like my husband and I who were working with a wedding budget, you can't beat the value of the Connexion Band! I am an accountant so I priced out many different bands and D.J.'s and Connexion Band was by far the best for the size and quality! read more

The Connexion Band did an amazing job at our wedding reception this past weekend! The dance floor was full the entire time, which just goes to show how entertaining they are. They were very responsive through email during the entire planning process. THANK YOU Connexion for turning our reception into a dance party! read more

After my husband and I got engaged we took a planned vacation and then came back and started the wedding planning process. I put some dates on hold at the church and set out to find a reception site. I found a great place with a date that looked good and brought my husband out to see it. He loved it and we told the wedding coordinator to send us a contract. LITERALLY as soon as we walked out of the golf club my husband said, "Ok I'll e-mail the Connexion Band today to find out if they're available and book them if they are." :) We had attended two previous weddings for couples who hired the Connexion Band (the second couple booked them after they also attended the first couple's wedding). Every time we were amazed by the talent of the band members and the entertainment provided! The Connexion Band was incredibly professional and easy to work with. They sent paperwork right away and were thorough in checking in with us regarding our selections, needs for the evening, etc. The night of our reception (June 2014), we were greeted by band members, congratulated, and they checked in with all members of our wedding party to confirm how to pronounce names (they introduced us as we entered the reception). A band member served as MC for the evening and was very professional. When it came time for the music to start, the room lit up! The dance floor was packed all night long with guests of all ages! We gave the band a list of a few songs that we liked but really trusted them to read the crowd and choose music from there. We had an absolute blast and spent almost every minute on the dance floor. Their talent and the variety of music they play is incredible. All the talk the rest of the night and over the past few weeks has been "they were amazing! Where did you find them??" This has come from guests of all ages. The Connexion Band is fantastic and will not disappoint. I highly recommend booking them (just not if one of my friends or family members is getting married the same day because I am hoping they will all book the Connexion Band)! read more

My husband and I booked Connexion Band for our wedding on 11/5/16 and it was the best night of our lives! We have the band to thank for that! We booked a jazz trio during cocktail hour, a pianist during dinner and a 9-piece band for the reception - all through Connexion. From start to finish, they were absolutely phenomenal. People were so impressed and still keep commenting on our amazing music! Prices were so reasonable especially compared to many other companies we looked at. If you book them you will have people dancing all night! Ray is also super responsive which was very helpful. Thanks Connexion! read more

The Connexion Band played our wedding in September and it absolutely could not have gone any better. From the moment that we signed them as our wedding band, their manager Ray was incredibly helpful and stayed extremely organized. As our wedding day drew near, we confirmed everything that Connexion would provide (down to the minor details) and Ray was on top of everything. On our big day, Connexion provided a pianist and various pieces of sound equipment for our ceremony and brought a full 9 piece band to rock our reception. And man alive did they rock. Connexion has an enormous 500+ song repertoire and we were able to lay out which songs we'd like to hear. There were a few instances when Connexion threw in a song that.we hadn't picked but they felt would get our guests going - and it always did They played with so much energy and passion and stayed very true to each song. The only complaint I have is that people had to fight for real estate on the dance floor - it was packed for every minute of the reception! Connexion really made our reception so incredible and the amount of compliments that we both get is staggering. If you like fun, you should really hire these guys! read more

WOW! I cannot say enough good things about the Connexion Band! My husband and I booked them for our April 2016 wedding reception, and it was probably the best choice we made throughout the whole planning process. If a testament to a band is the number of people on the dance floor at a given time, then the Connexion Band nailed it! We got tons of compliments on the band during and after our wedding. In fact, we're still getting compliments almost a year later. None of our guests had ever been to a wedding with so many guests dancing throughout the night and - the true testament - so many guests still on the dance floor for the last song. It was amazing to see so many people just purely enjoying themselves, and I give all credit to the Connexion for that. The dance floor was packed the whole night with guests of all ages, and every time I looked around me, all I saw were smiles. No one wanted to leave the dance floor because they didn't want to miss the next song - which was sure to be a crowd pleaser. I loved every second of it. The band members were friendly and engaging, and Ray was amazing throughout the process. He let us come preview the band before booking and was accommodating from start to finish. He learned the ins and outs of the flow of our reception, served as the perfect emcee, and incorporated all of our music requests into the set list. The band even learned two new songs special for our reception. Swoon. I could go on and on with praise for this group of talented musicians, but in summary, if you are considering booking the Connexion Band, do it. You won't regret it. Thanks, Connexion, for being the highlight of our wedding day! read more

We have attended several weddings over the last few years and this band was the worst.

Connexion recently performed at our wedding and they were an absolute hit! Prior to the wedding, the band asked that we provide a few songs that we definitely wanted to hear along with songs that were off limits. It was suggested that we not pick out every song as this may not suit the audience. They band worked off of the crowd and provided an ideal balance of song types and styles. The dance floor was packed the whole night and I can't tell you how many people approached us after the wedding to let us know how great Connexion was. I would definitely recommend Connexion to anyone in the process of planning an event in the Chicagoland area! read more

The best Wedding band ever....hands down! All of our wedding guests were asking us where we got the amazing band. Definitely the best in the business for wedding entertainment! read more

We had Connexion Band perform for our wedding about 3 weeks ago.We had heard them play at 2 other weddings before and had no doubt that we wanted them for our event. Not only was Connexion Band more affordable than any other band we looked at, they had our dance floor packed from start to finish. Ray was incredibly easy to work with and he made sure all the details were taken care of. Every day since our wedding we've had guests ask about our great band! I cannot recommend Connexion Band enough. If you are able to fit them into your budget, it is well worth the extra money versus a DJ to give your guests a great dance party! read more

This band is AMAZING! My fiance and I used them for our June wedding after seeing them at a wedding a few years ago. We almost did not even inquire about having Connexion Band perform because we thought they would be way out of our price range. They traveled to Lake Geneva, WI, and, still, were affordable. Ray is incredibly easy to work with and makes sure the whole planning process is extremely seamless. On the actual day, the band could not have been more professional (and nice) and took care of everything - set up, mics, mcing. Our guests have not stopped raving about their performance; the dance floor was never not packed - the entire night! I recommend them to everyone I know getting married in the Chicagoland area. read more

I believe this was the band that was playing at a friend's wedding. I was disappointed with the music and especially disappointed that they didn't play Any requests. However, it was what I overheard that was especially concerning. What appeared to be the manager was talking to a band member in an extremely rude and disrespectful manner. I was embarrassed for the musician as I he was belittles in front of the band and guests. This was unprofessional and ruined my own experience of the event. read more

I can't say enough good things about the Connexion Band. We knew the minute we saw them that we wanted them to play at our wedding. Their voices are amazing and they have such great energy. We are still getting so many compliments from our guests and its almost a month after the wedding! Ray (the band manager) was very easy to work with and very accommodating! I felt like we had a lot of requests regarding our first dances but he handled everything so well! Also the band plays a great mix of oldies and new music to keep everyone happy! (California Gurls was a hit!) You will definitely not be disappointed if you hire them! read more

Decent music, but absolutely horrible to work with and very unaccomodating. The band manager has a very short fuse and does not want to be given suggestions. I'd recommend not hiring them. read more

This review is long overdue and I regret not raving about Connexion sooner! The band played for our July 6th wedding and it was truly worth every penny. We are so happy we went with a band and not a DJ. The band worked with us on some of our special music requests and learned some traditional Jewish music for us as well. They played almost every single one of the songs we requested. They also took it in stride when one of our guests, a singer, unexpectedly got on stage to sing and lead the Hora. Everyone loved the band--every member is talented and brings a unique sound no matter what song they're playing. We are still getting compliments from our wedding guests about how much they enjoyed the music and dancing, all thanks to the band. They truly know how to play to a crowd of all ages and our crowd was constantly full of energy, dancing their butts off. Thanks Connexion--we had an amazing, unforgettable reception and we will be recommending you to everyone!!! read more

I cannot say enough about the Connexion Band! They were the best part of our wedding. We got so many compliments on them and how fun they made our reception. They were able to do a wonderful mix of DJ songs through dinner and special requests for first dances, to live versions of our favorite songs. They have a huge repertoire that they work with and allow you to choose some songs that are 'must haves' and then feel the crowd to select songs they think will bring people to the dance floor, and our dance floor was packed the entire night! They are a steal for the quality of the music and fun they give a wedding! read more

Connexion performed at our wedding two weeks ago (September 1, 2013), and they were incredible. Initially we were on the fence between getting a band and a DJ for our wedding, and Connexion's affordability allowed us to choose them over a DJ, and we are so glad we did! I found Connexion on Google as I was searching "Chicagoland wedding bands", and after doing some research on Yelp and talking to Ray, we were sold. Ray even invited us to go listen to them perform at another couple's wedding in downtown Chicago, which we did, and we were blown away by the amazing talent of the group and by the number of people on the dance floor. If you are considering hiring Connexion for your wedding, I recommend taking them up on their offer and seeing them perform at another venue, it's like an extra free show! Ray has been super easy to work with throughout the entire process, he is very prompt with replies for emails and always very courteous and friendly. Out of all our vendors for the wedding, they were by far the easiest to work with - I'm a very organized/type A kind of person, and I was a little worried about the promptness of the florist and the bakery, so I called and contacted them multiple times before the actual day. With Connexion I didn't even have a fleeting thought or worry - Ray and I finalized details about a week before over email and that was it - no hassle and no worry. On our wedding day, we had very high expectations for Connexion, and they still blew us out of the water. Their performance the entire night was spot on, and their energy was incredible. We had almost our entire guest list out dancing on the floor the entire night - literally, almost our entire guest list, except for a few older folk that danced in their seats :) Both of our families are fun and pretty outgoing, but I was shocked at some of the people that I saw on the dance floor, Connexion knew all the right songs to play to make everybody dance! We even had some of the band members joining us on the dance floor during one of their breaks, we thought that was awesome!! Also, I was a tiny bit concerned about bridal party introductions, because at both of my sister's weddings in the past, they used DJ's, and they had pronounced names wrong during the introductions (including calling the groom the wrong name as he was being introduced!) --- I was a little worried that my wedding was doomed to have the same fate - somebody's name would be wrong. But with Connexion there was absolutely no need to worry, Ray made sure to get phonetic pronunciations on each person's name in the bridal party, and they did a flawless job with introductions on the day of. Phew! One last thing....every single guest that we talked to RAVED about Connexion. At the end of the night, and the following day, and even now (we are two weeks out since the wedding), our guests are still talking about the band. I even had multiple friends who are recently engaged and planning their weddings ask me about Connexion and how to get in touch - they were seriously the hit of my wedding! To the Connexion band - a HUGE thank you for your incredible performances, your talent, and your energy all night! You helped make our wedding amazing and a very popular topic among our friends and family! To all wedding planners - Connexion was easily THE best decision about our wedding! read more

Connexion Band played at my wedding reception last week and they were A-mazing!!! Extremely talented musicians and vocalists. Kept the dance floor packed all night! They were so accommodating. They learned our first dance song and played it beautifully. All of my guests can't stop raving about the band! They really bring a sophistication to any event at a price you can't beat! read more

Connexion Band hands down exceeded our expectations. They knew exactly what music to play that would get everyone on the dance floor. The dance floor was completely packed the second dinner ended until midnight, where we begged them to play one more song and guests were shouting, "encore!" I cannot recommend them enough to anyone looking for an energetic band that guests will rave about! read more

The Connexion Band just performed at my Wedding in August. They were unbelievable. I never stopped dancing! There are nine people in the band and play electric guitar, bass guitar, drums, keyboard/saxophone and keyboard/trumpet. And what is very unique about this band is they have different vocalists two male and two female so you're not listening to the same voice over and over as with other bands. The package also included a DJ who played music during the cocktail hour and through dinner. The band was dressed in black tuxedos and the women in nice dresses. It was nice because it really tied into the classy and elegant theme of my reception. The played a variety of music that was appealing to all age groups. Everybody was dancing. They really kept my guests moving on the dance floor. There were people that usually never dance that were busting out dance moves. It was quite entertaining. Several people have already been requesting information from me about the band for their upcoming special events. And what's funny is some of the people didn't even attend my wedding but heard great reviews from their family and friends who were guests at the wedding. It has been a couple weeks now since my wedding and my guests are still raving about the band! I highly recommend The Connexion Band!!! read more

Ray and the Connexion band were the centerpiece of an EPIC wedding day for my wife and I on 11/4/17. They were extremely responsive through the whole process and willing to learn and adjust a few songs that meant a lot to us. The fact that they had 9 members left the crowd in awe of the range of genres....rock, country, rap, Top 40, oldies, and BRAND new songs (think 'Feels' by Calvin Harris'). The dance floor was ABSOLUTELY packed the entire night and every song was as though the original artist was singing. They were interactive with the crowd and we had more than a handful of guests say they were the best wedding band they had ever heard!
