Funk Almighty

us at our wedding reception. The actual performers are incredible, and able to read the flow of the room, impeccably pairing some beautifully done vocal-forward numbers during dinner while bringing high-energy tunes when the dance floor opened up. They were also extremely accommodating – in fact, for our wedding, my wife and I had asked to join the band for 1 song, and they allowed us to do it, which made for an all-time moment for us!

pliment the music. They did a great job engaging our guests and using crowd work to keep the party going. Daryl and team are very easy to work with during the planning process and were true professionals at the event. I would hire them again for another event, when the need arises!

mend Funk Almighty to any couple looking for a fun unique party experience! 

s to closing time.

jazz trio during dinner to the full band for the reception. They were tight, funky and just a blast. We're still getting texts from friends saying “that band though” We couldn’t agree more. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

g out of the park and were very responsive and easy to work with leading up to the wedding. We requested several specific songs, and they learned them for our event - all of which turned out amazing. The energy they brought was unmatched. The band even hopped into the crowd during a few songs, which was a huge hit and made the night even more fun. We couldn’t have asked for a better band and would recommend Funk Almighty without hesitation.

small part in keeping us organized. We had a piano for the ceremony and they learned our song requests and played it beautifully. The band came out into the crowd during the night and our guests lost it. They kept telling us it was the most fun wedding they’ve ever been to and we couldn't agree more. If you’re debating between a DJ or a live band, go with Funk Almighty and never look back!!

p to the big day; professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in making everything perfect. They had everyone on the dance floor. We still have guests asking us weeks later for the band’s name because they can’t stop talking about how good they were.

nal, thoughtful, and absolutely brought the vibes. They even helped me pull off a surprise song for my husband. Guests kept telling us all night how much they loved the band. We danced the night away, but I would love to keep dancing!

s of the entire day. Everyone who attended the wedding made comments about how great the band was and how much fun they had!!

w they were the band for us. They play a great range of songs and really have a new young wedding band feel which is what we wanted. They worked with us to learn a few of our favorite songs and we've heard from SO MANY guests that they were blown away by the band!! 10/10 would recommend!!!

our guests and so many of them have commented about how great Funk Almighty was. In addition to the crushing the reception, they were great to work with leading up to the wedding. We FULLY recommend to book with them - they will not disappoint!

ave us the perfect ceremony, learning unique songs that are so special to us and our relationship. On top of all this, Funk Almighty was extremely professional and communicative, making us feel at ease and confident in the sometimes stressful wedding planning process. We would wholeheartedly recommend Funk Almighty without any reservations, and we hope that our friends book them in the future so we can see them live again!! Thank you so much to Daryl and the team for an unforgettable night!

eddings, up and dancing all night. Funk Almighty was very professional and always available for emails and calls with any questions we had. It was important to us to have a band that would play a range of music, not just the "typical" wedding songs. They asked us to make a list of songs we liked and they did their best to incorporate those songs or similar songs to the set list. They also helped us plan a unique "grand entrance" that we were envisioning! They really made our vision for our entire reception come to life. If you are looking for a band, look no further! Funk Almighty made our wedding unforgettable!

mmented on how much better the music was this year, and that's entirely thanks to this band. I wish we had booked them longer because of the overwhelmingly positive reception. The crowd kept chanting one more song at the end of the end of their set! Ahead of the event, we worked closely with them to share the vibe we were going for and identified some must-hear songs from their song list. They were incredibly responsive, professional, and easy to coordinate with throughout the process. If you're looking for a band for your wedding or event, we can’t recommend them enough. They truly made the night unforgettable!

a reason to.

y played all of our favorite songs, and absolutely brought it! Every set was incredible and our guests could not stop complimenting the band. Would recommend to any bride + groom for their big day!

also knew that a typical wedding band (no offense to those) were not going to do it for me. I feel lucky to have come across Funk Almighty and to have booked them for my reception. Their manager, Daryl, was very professional throughout the booking process. We hopped on a phone call after I inquired and he walked through all of the details with me, including providing pricing immediately. One of the first things that jumped out at me was Daryl's offer that the band would learn ANY song that we requested for our event. That was not typical based on my research. Leading up to the wedding, Daryl and I checked in a couple times to make sure the schedule was in place. I was really pleased with the communication before the event. We talked about what kind of set I was envisioning for the night and they delivered. The band was able to let us use their audio system for the ceremony and toasts, which was convenient. They set up early in the day with plenty of time in case any issues arose. Finally, once the time came to dance, they blew me away. Seriously, I had so many guests come up to me and express they COULD NOT BELIEVE how great the band was. The band played a lot of traditional wedding songs, but took a lot of solos between the trombone, trumpet, sax, keyboard, and guitar. I had asked Daryl for a lot of solos and improvisation, so I don't think you can do better than Funk Almighty if that's what you want. But, I have a feeling they can play the tunes straighter if you prefer. The singers were incredible, especially the female singer. They had awesome stage presence and were actually interacting with the guests, making sure the party never stopped. When the time for the finale came, everyone was spent from 2 hours+ of straight getting down. I could not recommend Funk Almighty any more. As a musician myself, I am EXTREMELY picky about music performances, and they knocked it out of the park. My only point of disappointment was that the venue we chose was very boomy, which made the echo a bit unpleasant if you were far from the stage. Obviously, that's in no way the band's fault -- I just wish I had thought of it earlier. Also, make sure that you provide Funk Almighty with whatever insurance details your venue requires with plenty of time beforehand. We had a bit of a scare the night before, but the band and venue were able to work something out.

They bring immaculate vibes and even came out to jam on the dance floor with us for a song which was SO fun. Incredible quality for the value and Daryl, the primary point of contact, was very responsive, flexible, and made sure the night was what we wanted. I’d 100% recommend them to any other couples looking for a band and would use them again in a heartbeat. - Original review on Zola.com

he dance floor was open, the energy was high and the band sounded incredible. Aaliyah and Troy sounded amazing, and the rest of the band was perfect. Funk Almighty respected our song choices, and were able to understand the vibe of the reception. 10/10 thank you Daryl and Funk Almighty.

ur favorite songs was a special highlight and our guests couldn’t stop raving about them. If you want a wedding band that makes your day unforgettable, Funk Almighty is the way to go. Highly recommended!

e, they have terrific correspondence and professionalism. They performed live our first dance song along with the father/bride and mother/groom songs as well. Once they started to get into their set, they rocked the house! Some of our guests said it was the best part of the night with how good they performed and how entertaining they were to watch! The overall experience was terrific and even a 9-piece band was well within our budget. If you really are on the fence about booking a live band, let this be the review to book this group because you will not be disappointed!

r venue to come up with solutions based on our set up needs both indoor and outdoor. Would recommend for anyone for their wedding!

l of our emails and questions.

fun to work with. Highly recommend!

aming! And they kept the surprise shift in tunes coming. We couldn’t get enough! They also blended genres and made each moment of the evening feel unique and kept the energy high. Their understanding of the crowd's vibe and how they kept everyone engaged was so appreciated. I could go on forever but I recommend hiring them and finding out for yourselves!

onto the dance floor with us, and that just blew our guests away! They danced and sang with us and our guests, bringing an amazing energy that was both intimate and exhilarating for us!! They even did a dance routine that all our guests caught on too and before we knew it everyone was doing the same dance. We looked at quite a few bands and we cannot recommend them enough because they made our wedding feel more like a shared experience with friends than a formal event. It was a highlight for many of our guests and truly showcased Funk Almighty's commitment to not just performing music but creating lasting memories, which was something Daryl promised us right off the bat. We're incredibly thankful for this special aspect of their performance and cannot recommend them enough if you’re looking for an unforgettable night!

schedule. Their flexibility made the day run more smoothly. Would recommend!

band went above and beyond and created an entire medley of her hits. This wasn’t just another wedding band playing covers, it became a whole show that added their unique funk twist. I can’t begin express how cool it was to watch our request come to life like that!! Daryl and the team's ability to transform our simple request into such an elaborate and memorable piece was incredible. Easily the highlight of the evening. And it was such a personalized touch that made our special day even more unforgettable. Aside from that working with them was a breeze. The rest of the night was great too but I really can’t overstate how much we appreciate them for going above and beyond with our request. That’s true talent and creativity so we can't recommend them enough for their exceptional service and making our wedding one of a kind!

incredibly accommodating to our needs. On the big day, they exceeded our expectations with one heck of a performance. Their setlist was a hit, blending different genres to cater to our very diverse group of guests. We gave them a heads up and they brought hits from the 70's all the way through the 2000's. What really set them apart was the band's chemistry and enthusiasm were infectious! They were having just as good a time we were and that made the dance floor the place to be all night! Despite a minor sound glitch at the start, they handled it with utmost professionalism. Their performance was a major highlight of our celebration that left us and our guests thoroughly impressed. We would wholeheartedly recommend Funk Almighty for their talent, but even more so the joy they'll bring to your wedding!!!!

reat they were! Cannot recommend them enough. I was so excited too because they ended up playing a Sammy Rae song off the playlist I sent them (one of my favorite artists). We had a few of them play our ceremony too and as soon as heard them play something by the Beatles I immediately started tearing up. Get these guys for your wedding or event!

ENTIRE TIME and we were! Funk Almighty is what's up. They were incredibly easy to work with and killed our first song, Home. They kept the party going non stop with an amazing playlist and just their pure energy. I don't think the dance floor was empty once. We had the best ceremony and reception because of them. Will hire for other events going forward. Truly, the best! BOOK, BOOK, BOOK!

ll night long and were so easy to work with throughout the entire planning process. Highly recommend!

Daryl (the guitarist and band manager) was responsive, flexible, and understanding through all our communication from start to finish and worked really well with our other vendors. They did everything we could think of to be a perfect fit for our wedding plans, guests, and venue. As a musician and live music nut myself, the band was one of my top priorities for the wedding and I was really picky with the band's sound when we were choosing. This group is really talented both individually and as a group, the fun they have up there playing together is contagious, and they're extremely versatile in the music that's in their wheelhouse. They gathered a great sense for the kind of music we wanted from just a few pointers in the right direction. Like their name says, they get the bass line going and the people moving - we had guests out on the dance floor that we never thought we'd ever get dancing! Highly recommend Funk Almighty in whatever configuration and whichever members/size you might be thinking of! We had a great time working with them and wouldn't think twice about doing it again.

for our community events. Music was fabulous.

During the reception, we had the 6-piece band play. The dance floor was always packed and the music was amazing. Outside of the wedding day, they were super easy to plan with, knowing exactly what to do to make everything go perfectly. I would highly recommend adding them to your wedding day!!!!!!

xtremely flexible and accommodating when our outdoor event turned to indoors, due to the weather. Wish we could have heard more of them! Can't wait to see them play nearby someday in the near future. If you are considering Funk Almighty for a wedding or private event, don't hesitate to book them! You won't regret it!

ith them. Between the choice of songs and the show the put on for us and our guests, we would highly recommend them for anyone looking for top tier entertainment.

ride's dancing pleasure. They rocked it! We had a blast and recommend highly!

at will be sure to please your audience and definitely get the party started. Daryl and the band work very hard to please and if you have any requests, and it is within their means, they’ll get it for you. I highly recommend them for your next wedding or party or corporate event. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that you will want Funk Almighty at your event.

was asking us all night for their information as they couldn’t believe how incredible they were. Their stage presence is out of this world that they even had a guitar and sax solo in the middle of the dance floor! I have absolutely nothing but amazing things to say about them!

talent were unbelievable! Daryl, the band manager, is highly communicative and helped tailor music for every aspect of our day; we had an acoustic guitar for our ceremony, a jazz ensemble for cocktail hour, and their 10-person band for the reception. We also used Funk Almighty's MC service for the evening and Jared did a fantastic job ensuring the events stayed on schedule. What sets Funk Almighty apart from other bands is their energy, they had everyone on the dance floor! Our guests raved about the music and I can confidently say they were right, Funk Almighty is the best!
