Apologies for the super delayed response in this but we were SO thrilled with Crystal Clear Band.
We had several people ask us the name of the band and where we found them!
They had everyone up and dancing and the dance floor was full the whole time! We were so so happy with our choice!!
Thank you so much!!

Hi Summer!
First and foremost, the band exceeded all of our expectations. Their talent, energy, and ability to read the crowd made the night absolutely unforgettable. From the moment they started playing, the dance floor was packed, and they kept the momentum going all night long. The range of music they performed was perfect for our guests, and so many people commented on how much fun they had thanks to the band's performance.
I also want to highlight the experience of working with Sam Hill. You all made the process of selecting the perfect band so seamless and enjoyable. We had a specific budget in mind, and you all were able to recommend fantastic options that fit within it. Your attention to detail, professionalism, and responsiveness made the whole planning process stressfree.
I can't recommend you all highly enough for anyone looking for exceptional entertainment and service for their event.
Thank you again!

Everything went great. As far as I'm concerned, they were amazing to work with and did everything we requested. Adding the sax and keyboard at the beginning was wonderful. They crowd danced the whole time, and didn't want to leave the dance floor. I feel certain Nick and Alexis feel the same way, but will let them reply when they get back from their honeymoon.
I have two more daughters..so i'm sure you will be hearing from me again!

Hi Katie,
We had the absolute BEST experience with Wayne & the band. They truly brought our vision to life!! I think just about every guest was on the dance floor from open to close. They engaged the crowd so well and put on such an amazing performance. We had a younger guest list (I’d say probably average age being 30) and they customized the set list so that everyone knew just about every song and we’re able to sing along. We truly can’t say enough kind words about the band!

I was most impressed with Wayne and the lead femaleI am sorry I cannot recall her name but both were just absolutely lovely. They were not only receptive with the crowd but in particular with my young grandchildren who are still talking about it!!
I have received so many compliments on them and how they played so many older songs this crowd knew and sang along with , as well as many danced themselves to pieces!! It is a night my guests will not soon forget and the band is a major reason as they worked so well bringing disparate groups together in celebration.
I thank you for your recommendation and do hope I can have them again sometime!!

They were very interactive with the dance floor and kept the party going. Even on their breaks they played fun songs.
Best band anyone could ask for in their wedding.
Leading up to the big day the portal was very easy to use and working with Wayne was very easy. He was extremely responsive and ready to party with us. We had so much fun. And the wedding would not have been the same without Crystal Clear Band.
To the ladies in the band they were hitting all the huge notes in songs by Tina turner and Whitney! Truly amazing!

Wayne Ross was very easy to work with helpful, communicative, friendly, and knowledgeable. The band as a whole was professional, fun, and extremely talented. We had guests from ages 3065 raving about Crystal Clear they were a hit for all age groups! They took into account our song requests as well as songs we did not want them to play. They really knew how to play to the crowd and were successful in keeping the party going. I would highly recommend CC Band to friends and family, as well as Sam Hill. Sam Hill made the planning process a breeze when it came to reception music.
I will leave a review on The Knot this morning.
Thank you so much for your help!

We had Crystal Clear Band for our wedding and they were PHENOMENAL!! Wayne put together a set list that was exactly what we requested to keep our guests happy. Almost every single guest that we talked also raved about the band and how awesome they sounded. No one left the dance floor!! I would also recommend getting them a stage. They sounded amazing and were the absolute highlight of the night we never wanted the party to end!! We are so grateful to have gotten to work with this wonderful band and hope that everyone gets this same experience. The Sam Hill correspondence was also seamless. Everything was very clear cut and outlined in terms of contract agreements and payments. Highly recommend!

Crystal Clear Band was such a hit! Everyone raved and loved them. So many people had talked about them afterwards to tell me how much fun they were. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. From transferring music over from the ceremony to cocktail hour and the amazing reception, they truly played such a vital role in making my wedding day so magical.
The introductions were fantastic and they had 16!—pronounced every name correctly. And dance floor was packed the whole night with younger and older people, which is what I wanted from the very beginning. From start to finish, speaking with Wayne made me feel at total peace and ease. He assured me everything I had mentioned he would make sure to capitalize on it and he did. He was so understanding, and all around great.
I can’t imagine having anything different other than Crystal Clear Band. My mom would love to write a review. Do you mind sending us the link so we go to the correct vendor?

Thank you so much for checking in. We absolutely loved Crystal Clear Band they were so great to work with, and very communicative before and during the event.
Wayne and his team learned not one, but three songs (our first dance, Father Daughter Dance, and Mother Son Dance) so that they could perform them live, rather than from recordings during the reception. They also worked to put together a final song to send us off at the end of the night and it was SUCH an amazing surprise! Wayne did a great job working with our planner, and reached out prior to the event to answer any questions we had, and create a playlist to play during their band break. I really can't tell you how happy we are with all that they did to make it a great and FUN evening.
Thank you again for all your help in making the reception so fun and lively!

Hi Andy,
Thank you for all your help coordinating our wedding music. The Crystal Clear Band was phenomenal!
Their presence and talent truly made the party. From the moment they transitioned from dinner to dance music, all our guests were up on the dance floor for the entire night. Folks repeatedly came up to me to comment on how fantastic the band was and ask where we'd learned about them. The dance party was so terrific that we literally had to dance people off the floor and down to the buses at the end of the night because otherwise they'd never have left.
The band also handled transitions between the planned breaks for Persian music very smoothly. Have the two 45 minute periods of Persian music made such a difference to helping us ensure that all of our guests felt included, and I was so grateful to the band for their flexibility in accommodating that. They transitioned between their live performances and the Persian music flawlessly and kept the party moving seamlessly.
More generally, they were a pleasure to work with. Wayne was great at staying in touch via phone and email, and he was really thoughtful in listening to my preferences. In the midst of the whirlwind of wedding planning, his lowkey, considerate approach was also just a breath of fresh air. I really appreciated his positive, no stress attitude.
We felt so lucky to have CCB join us, and I'd recommend them highly to anyone looking for a great band for really any occasion.
All the best,
Nina

Beth,
Words will not do justice to the bands performance. The wedding was AWESOME…one that will be talked about for years to come and set the tone for the 3 weddings that will follow in our area.
One HUGE part of the success of our event was the Crystal Clear Band!!!
High Energy
Professional
Extremely Crowd Friendly
The music from start to finish was awesome…they covered songs for all ages in the room. Their video on the web page was good, but doesn’t do justice to their live performance…the band is simply aweinspiring.
Wayne was a pleasure to work with through the entire process. He kept the stress level down and provided great advice and mentorship.
The day of Wayne and his team were true professionals.
The song they learned, Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash, was a big hit with the father of the bride!!!
No one wanted the night to end…
Some had bruises on their hands from playing along on the tambourines J
Sam Hill Entertainment was also a pleasure to work with.
Y’all are the ones that suggested the Crystal Clear Band when, what we thought was our first choice for a band was booked.
Now the Crystal Clear Band will be the only band we use for any event in the future
Your office was very easy to work with and also helped keep the stress level down during our planning phase.
THANKS to all – you guys are super!!!
We look forward to working with you in the future.
Regards,
Lars

Hi Andrew.
Crystal Clear was everything we wanted and more, and I cannot tell you how many people have came up to me and said how much they loved the band. They were energetic, on the dance floor, and getting others to dance was easy with their music and personality. Beyond the music they are amazing people and I couldn't have asked for more. Wayne is a true sweet heart and his well wishes and advice to us I took to heart and I really appreciate the time he took during his break to compliment our ceremony and us as a couple.
11 out of 10 stars!

I really don't know how to put into words how great they really are besides publicly announcing they are the best wedding band in Atlanta this coming from a bridesmaid 11 times over before my own wedding. The number one compliment from my wedding has been how Crystal Clear Band was a total BLAST! From classic wedding songs to today's hits, we barely got through dinner before the venue was rocking. Wayne was also so fun to work with and super easy going which you need with wedding vendors. I would HIGHLY recommend.

Hey Mike,
Thanks for reaching out! We have nothing but wonderful things to say about Crystal Clear Band. They were AWESOME!!!
From the start, Wayne and the rest of the band were extremely easy to work with. Our event planner called Wayne the week before our wedding to talk through timing of events, music style, when we wanted the music to pick up, etc., and Wayne knew exactly what we were looking for and the band delivered accordingly. From the second the band started playing music, our guests did not leave the dance floor. Crystal Clear Band played the best variety of music and they were engaged with the crowd from start to finish. I would not have changed a single thing. We had multiple guests ask for the band's information by the end of the night because they enjoyed them so much.
In the early stages of planning our wedding, one of the most important things to us was selecting the right band that was fun, engaging, and energetic but also within our budget. Booking Crystal Clear Band was one of the best decisions we made throughout the whole process. I would recommend them to anyone.
We also had a great experience working with Sam Hill Entertainment. They provided us with excellent band options based on our requests and budget. Once we selected our Band, Sam Hill was great about explaining next steps and what to expect from them in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Everyone we worked with at Sam Hill Entertainment was quick to respond and very easy to work with.
We cannot thank yall enough for everything! Sam Hill Entertainment and Crystal Clear Band exceeded our expectations and helped make our wedding reception everything we hoped for and more!!!

From the moment they arrived until they departed they were professional and such a pleasure to have at the wedding. I can’t begin to tell you all the calls and comments we have had about them and how wonderful they were. The music was on point and they played without end, kept the crowd engaged and made the night so much fun. I simply could go on and on. After the wedding I made it a point to thank and hug each and every member of the band. If they were a touring band I definitely would be a follower for sure!!!!! We will be looking for another opportunity to have a gathering and of course hire Crystal Clear Band to perform again. They will forever be the only band we use. Please once again express my thanks and appreciation for everything to them for making my daughters night just magical.

From planning to the actual event, it all was so easy and stress free. We received SO many nice comments from guests raving about the band and music and we had multiple people ask about the band for future events! The planner even said that was the most people they have even seen on the dance floor!
The female saxophonist blew people away during cocktail hour and the tambourines were such a hit late night. We loved every single song choice and were thrilled to see the dance floor (and stage!!) packed the entire night. They created such a fun atmosphere and evening!
We couldn't have dreamed up a more special day and weekend. I wish we could do it all over again! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Mike,
i just wanted to take a minute to personally THANK YOU for your extremely helpful guidance in helping us pick Crystal Clear as our band for Caroline’s wedding on St. Simons Island, GA last weekend.
You may remember that I had a hard time making a decision and you were ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! I read about a million reviews of so many bands and watched so many youtube videos of lots of different bands. To be honest, it is so hard to determine much from those videos. But, Wayne Ross and Crystal Clear Band were truly AMAZING! They were perfect for us and excellent in every way!
I had several conversations with Wayne Ross. He was so very helpful in setting up the time line and listening to what we wanted. He was delightful and kind and we loved him before we even met him. I called him the day before to ask him a question and he was on top of every single detail. The day of the event, they were all so professional, pleasant and nice to have around. And then at the reception, they BLEW EVERYONE AWAY!
I know people write this in their reviews and it starts to sound cliche but EVERYONE loved them! They did a great cocktail hour set that set a really nice tone for the party. Then they played back up (beautifully) for my (other) daughter and her husband to sing for the bride and groom to dance. They directed us and the crowd from the stage in the nicest and most fun way. They all have such a nice, warm, happy way about them and everyone loves that! After their break they did a Motown set that absolutely rocked the house. Everyone was dancing and singing! It was perfectly done. We had set a schedule ahead of time and they did a great job keeping us on schedule. The second set was more current hits and the crowd loved that just as much!! They are responsive to the crowd and great about paying attention to what needs to happen next. I WAS SO IMPRESSED!!
I am a tough critic because we come from a family of bands and I could not have been happier!!!! The whole evening was a fantastic success. During both breaks, Wayne found me and Caroline (in a room of 300 people) to make sure we were happy with the way things were going. TOP notch people! Up and beyond in everything they did. And so talented and professional.
Thank you!

HI Beth!
They Crystal Clear Band ( CC Band ;) was absolutely fantastic!! First, their music ability, sound, and song choices were absolutely perfect. They introduced the wedding party and bride and groom and that was about all the talking they did, and I really liked that. They were so good that everyone wanted to dance, young and old! They were a great dance band with a mix of great Motown and favorite dance tunes, including popular stuff. Love that Uptown Funk!! Did I even hear a little Darius Rucker?? My feet have hurt for two days!! I also appreciate how easily and well you guys have remained in contact with us emailing information and encouraging my daughter's input. And then my daughter had the audacity to ask if her little brother could play a song on his sax with the the band! Only a professional band with a lot of confidence and experience would allow that and they did! ( Much to my surprise!) Now, I have confidence in my son and knew he was up to the task, but the band didn't have any idea what they were getting. And they politely allowed it anyway! My daughter, family and friends all loved it!!! Honestly, that was the icing on the cake! The bottom line, however, was that the band sounded great, looked very professional, and their song selections were awesome! Everyone said this was the best wedding band they have ever heard! They exceeded all expectations and were worth every penny!! Thank you so much!! Please use any video you may receive from my husband or brother in law. We will spread your name around here in Savannah and on Facebook!

Beth,
I wanted you to know right away that we were extremely pleased with the Crystal Clear Band at our daughter’s wedding this past Saturday night. They gave all they had and more. Letting my son play the sax with them was icing on the cake. My chest was about to explode I was so proud. I spoke with the band members afterwards and expressed my thanks but wanted to let you guys know as well. I will be giving them my endorsement to anyone in Savannah who asks about a band. Meredith and Jonathan could not have been happier. I know that I speak for everyone that was there.
Thanks so much,
Mark Stevens

Beth,
Words can't describe how perfect they made our wedding. We are huge music lovers and they absolutely hit every possible song we wanted to hear and then some of their additions. I could go on for days about how great of a time we had. We are still on our honeymoon and still enjoying the wonderful buzz they left us with. Several guests have written us to let us know that was the best wedding they have ever been to.
Wayne was very professional and made me feel very welcome. He went out of his way to let me know if we needed anything to just ask. I spoke with him before the wedding to follow up and he was very helpful then as well. The day of he couldn't have eased the already stressful day any better by being so polite and accommodating.
The only reason I wouldn't recommend the CCB is I wouldn't want anyone else's wedding to be better than ours. LOL. Another great part of the wedding was the rap type music they put on the PA when they took a setbreak. It was completely unexpected and gave a great break to the music and even had my 90 year old grandmother dancing in her chair.
We are so thankful we were recommended to work with the CCB for our wedding and will definitely recommend them to our close friends as they get married.
Thanks again for making our special day beyond perfect!

Beth,
Thank you! Chris and I just got back from our honeymoon and everything is settling down now. I cannot express to your how awesome the Crystal Clear Band was at our wedding reception and to work with! We could not be happier in our decision to have them share our special day. I spoke with Wayne multiple times leading up to the wedding. He was so nice and really worked hard to make all of my wishes come true at the reception. He was very easy to contact and was always willing to meet my requests. After the wedding, I have had so many compliments on their performance. They played all of the best songs, old and new. Everyone was on the floor dancing all night! I truly could not have asked for anything more from them. They made the night one to remember! We will, and already have, been recommending them to everyone we know in need of a band.
Thank you so much for everything. The band was absolutely everything I wanted and more.

Mike,
I wanted to follow up and finally give some feedback on The Crystal Clear Band for our April 9, 2016 wedding.
Wayne and the entire band were absolutely amazing. We first heard them at the wedding of some other close friends in March 2015, and every guest then (including us) raved about how great the band was at keeping the dance floor going all night with a great variety of fun music. Once we heard them then, we knew we couldn't go wrong with them at our own wedding.
I also knew after talking with Wayne about the logistics and game plan that we had hired true professionals who not only listened to what we wanted but also knew how to execute perfectly for the fun night of dancing we wanted. After that conversation, I felt fully confident again that The Crystal Clear Band was going to be great, and we were not disappointed!
The whole night was wonderful. Everyone was out on the dance floor the entire night, including the guests who don't typically dance! The song selection was amazing, moving from great oldies and beach music to start the night, on to the best of Motown and awesome current songs too. I could not have asked for a better band, and I hope I have the opportunity to use them or see them again sometime soon! I would recommend them to anyone!
I will also post this review on The Knot for you. Let me know if you need anything else. Thanks again for all the assistance! This was one of my favorite parts of the wedding!
Best,
Connor Macon

Hey Beth,
Crystal Clear Band was the best decision we could have made for our wedding entertainment!! They were so friendly and easy to work with prior to the event, sending us updates and accommodating our requests. For the reception, they were punctual, professional and full of energy. The dance floor was packed the entire night, and family members who never dance were caught busting some moves!! During the night and days after, guests kept commenting on how great the band was! We highly recommend this band to anyone who wants interactive fun for a wide range of ages and an overall stellar performance!!

The Crystal Clear Band was the best choice we made for our wedding reception! From the moment we first booked them, the band was professional, courteous, so easy to work with, and they turned out to be even better than we thought. They brought an energy and attitude to the reception that made everyone want to dance, and I had many people ask who they were and where did I find them. They absolutely nailed their four hour set, and kept the crowd dancing the whole time. All of their members were immensely talented, and all their songs sounded great no matter the genre. If you are planning a gig with live music, you should start your search with the Crystal Clear Band!

Everything was absolutely wonderful! Wayne was so great to work with and easy going leading up to the wedding and figuring out the timeline. Also, they were so flexible about the time getting into the place of our reception as it was not as early as they had hoped. You would have never known with their up beat, fun, energetic, crowd pleasing, and did I mention FUN performance!!! They were AWESOME and our reception was all we imagined and more because of The Crystal Clear Band! So many, many thanks to each of them for making our day special and fun for all! We would highly recommend them to any of our friends and family that are in need for a fabulous performance for any wedding or event!

We hired the Crytal Clear Band for my daughter’s wedding reception on Seabrook
Island, SC. To say we were pleased would be the understatement of the year. This is
a fantastic, energetic and charismatic group of professionals who really know how
to please a crowd!
Leading up to the event, the band manager Wayne Ross reached out to me to get all
the details of the reception. He answered all my questions, made sure every detail
was covered and even checked the pronunciation of the names of the bridal party to
ensure all were correct for the introductions. I had multiple conversations with him
before the event and found him to always be very helpful and available.
Extraordinary customer service!
On the afternoon of the reception, the band arrived several hours early and did a
short rehearsal – putting particular emphasis on the songs they learned specifically
for our event. When it was time to come on stage, they brought their A game. The
first set was during dinner so it was a lot of slow songs. I knew they were going to
be a hit when over 30 people got up and danced between their salad and their main
course.
The second set the band played all the crowd favorites – beach music, Motown,
classic dance music. The dance floor was packed the entire time! Even the facility
manager at Seabrook commented that this was the best band that has ever played
there. For the last set, Crystal Clear rocked the house with modern dance music and
it was truly amazing. We had over 130 guests and I bet 90 percent of them hit the
dance floor. Afterwards, all anyone could talk about was how good the band was.
This is a group of very accomplished musicians and genuine entertainers. They
have a good sense for how to make a crowd react and their timing was outstanding.
I can’t say enough good things about them and would highly recommend this band
for any occasion. A+ for showmanship, musical talent and customer service.

Thanks for the note and warm wishes. The Crystal Clear Band was fantastic! Everyone loved them and people are still telling us how much fun they had. We definitely had an energetic and guest list, so the young people and many of the older adults were on the dance floor the entire night. The band did an amazing job keeping the energy up and were flexible in switching between oldies, more current, and the classic ballads (which we and the crowd really liked).
Please let us know if any further details would be helpful to share. It was great working with you guys and we'll be sure to recommend Crystal Clear to friends and family in the area.

From the monument the music began, which was during the cocktail hour, The Crystal Clear Band far exceeded our expectations. They played soft dinner music during the dinner hour and set the tone for the entire reception.
Their voices blended perfectly, they had so much energy and sent such wonderful vibes that the dance floor was full all the time. As a matter of fact, when looking around there were always more guests dancing than sitting down. No one wanted them to stop. They played music from all eras.

Thank you for following up. The Crystal Clear band was absolutely awesome and killed it at the party!! I think I only stopped dancing twice only because I felt like I shouldn't be sweating so much as the bride! They whole time Beth coordinated with me wonderfully, and the band members were all great. They were interactive with us, had no problem setting up, and the generator worked great. There were a few moments when a strange sound came out of the speakers, but it only happened a couple times, and it was hardly noticeable. Thank you so much for your help. They were really great and I'd certainly recommend them to others.

And three weeks later, guests have commented to my parents what an outstanding band played at the wedding. We loved how some of the band members came down on the dance floor and kept the party rocking! Also, it was fantastic to work with the band’s manager, Beth, prior to the wedding to make sure that all of the details (first dances, breaks, etc.) were figured out prior to the big day.

Hi Mike,
The Crystal Clear Band was unbelievable. I was hesitant about the size of the band given the room was not very large but from the second I sat down at my table, Mike (believe that is the lead singers name) kept eye contact with me at some point during every song to make sure I was OK with the volume and to ensure i was having a good time...which I no doubt did. The band was very professional and read the crowd's mood perfectly. before the wedding they asked if we had a special request songs to add to the recorded music I believe I sent them two songs like two days before the wedding and I was surprised when I heard BOTH of them play. It was a special song my dad and I love and one that my husband and his mom love. Anyway, they met all of our expectations and SO SO SO much more.
Thank you so much for providing so much joy and entertainment with your musical talents.

The band was AMAZING!!! They played great music and were very considerate of our requests especially iPod requests which meant A LOT!!! You wouldn't believe how many friends and family were raving about how awesome they were. I know several people got some cards and I've passed some info along and will continue to do so. I am pretty sure my friend getting married in December is using y'all . Absolutely outstanding job. Everyone had a blast. Many people have said how fun the reception was and that has a lot to do with the band. Everyone was dancing the whole time. It was perfect. Please let them all know how awesome they did because it was incredible. I hope y'all gain some Bham business from this experience. I appreciate all your hard work as you were the one to make this happen. I truly had one of the best days of my life and I really thank you and the band for all y'all did to make this happen. Many thanks:)

I had you on my list of people to contact and thank for the wedding. The band was AMAZING!! They did such a great job with everything. They kept the party going and sounded wonderful. So good that we even managed to have the cops call and some neighbors called someone that was at the wedding and told them the music sounded great!
We got lots of compliments on the band and the food which can definitely make or break a wedding so we were thrilled to hear everyone was enjoying it as much as we were!! My aunt even joked that she hoped her daughter (who's 19 and not dating anyone) got married soon so they could use the band.
Thanks for everything! We couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Beth,
We just recently got back from our honeymoon so I apologize about not writing to you sooner. I just wanted to let you know how AMAZING The Crystal Clear Band was!!!! From the start of the reception until the last dance there was so much energy!!! They had even selfproclaimed nondancers (even grandparents) on their feet throughout the night! It really was incredible! People were commenting on how they have never been to such a fun reception and I’d have to agree!!!! We also so really appreciate the band taking the time to learn the song for our first dance! I would recommend them to any party any age group…they have amazing vocal talents and can sing songs from any genre!!! We were so impressed that when the normal contract time came up, my parents bought an additional 30 minutes because no one was ready for the band to stop playing!!! They were so engaging and got out on the dance floor several times to engage more people! If ever we are in need of band again…we’d use Crystal Clear in a heartbeat and will recommend them to friends in the future!! MUCH THANKS FOR SOME REALLY SPECIAL MEMORIES! Couldn’t have been more pleased with the band!!! They ROCKED!
Thanks,

Hi Elizabeth,
Thank you for your call and email. I really enjoyed working with the Crystal Clear Band on Saturday. They were very talented and probably one of the best wedding bands we've had in awhile. Beth was fantastic to work with. We actually ran behind by about 20 minutes all night (unrelated to anything with the band of course) but they adjusted their sets where needed and went with the flow. But what was more amazing was that toward the last hour of the event there were still had several activities to accomplish with the family and that would have only left a few good dance songs for the band to play. I warned the Bride of this and she requested for the band to play about 15 minutes longer than their contracted time. I told her that there might be a fee for that but I would look into it for her. Beth was very open to it and asked the band if they wouldn't mind playing a few extra songs. They agreed and it really helped make the end of the night be exactly what the Bride and family were hoping for. At TPC Sugarloaf we don't charge extra fees for events that go overtime like this one did, we are already here and we don't want to nickel & dime our clients with something like that so it was nice to work with another vendor that sees the value in working through an event to make it perfect until the end.
Sincerely,
Rebecca

Hi Beth,
Chris and I would LOVE to give you feedback about Crystal Clear, considering that the band is all that anyone has talked about since our wedding. Literally, person after person has said that is the best wedding band they have ever heard play, and several guests have asked that we pass their information along for other future weddings.
The first time I saw them play (Pat Morrell's wedding) I was struck by how well they read the crowd. The lead man is a masterful showman and brings tremendous energy to the stage and to the room. They did an incredible job of playing to the energy of the room starting with a middle tempo and then ramping it up big time for a major party crew. If the crowd was really loving the song, they would play extra verses, and of course that they picked up on the If you ain't sweatin', You ain't dancin' mantra and turned it into a song that everyone chanted was sheer brilliance and got everyone really fired up. They simply have a very intuitive understanding of what is going to get a particular crowd on their feet and having the time on their lives.
They were also really good about letting the crowd get involved they let my cousin get on the drums, and one of our best friends get on the guitar, which meant a lot to us personally. And of course, they let our best friend rap This is How We Do It a big ritual among our friends so their flexibility really made the evening super special.
Finally, the band effortlessly forges special connections with members of the audience. Chris, my fiance, was very touched to receive official Crystal Clear dog tags from the lead singer, dog tags that he literally brought with him all over Greece during our honeymoon and took pictures with. Amazing. (By the way, we will be sending you those pictures soon.)
So, in short, we were BLOWN away by their performance. My number one wish was that we would have a ruckous dance floor with an amazing band and that we would dance our hearts out until we couldn't dance anymore, and that happened times ten. Wow.
Please let us know if there is anything we can do to support such an awesome group of people.
Thank, you Beth, for all of your awesome help.

The band was FANTASTIC. Not only were they talented and extremely entertaining, they were kind and gracious which is a coordinator's dream. Megan and James were so pleased and hardly left the dance floor all evening. Megan's parents loved them as well. The flow of the evening was perfect.
Megan's ring bearer was a student of hers and during the band's breaks, they let him sing some solo's which were huge hits with the guests so all in all, they nailed it :)
I will definitely recommend you guys to future brides I work with. You all were fabulous.

They had people on the dance floor as soon as dinner ended and kept them dancing all night. They played a great range so everyone from my Mom's friends to our friends had something to dance to. People were ready to dance all night (even after we left).

We loved the song selection and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a wedding band! They were just what we were looking for.
Thanks for everything!!!!
Dear Beth,
Wow! Where do we start? The band lived up to their exceptional reputation and then some. So many people called us asking where did you get that band? They got everyone going and dancing and having the time of their lives! Then they invited Josh to come up and play with them...amazing. He had a great time, they played so well together, and the crowd really enjoyed that too. I can't say enough. Crystal Clear is a real class act; we couldn't have been happier. Rest assured, we'll pass the compliments on. Oh, by the way,. our Wedding Planner, love, love. loved them! Hopefully, she'll be recommending them to her clients!
Take care and thank you so much until we work together again,

I would definitely recommend them to anyone, and I will certainly recommend Sam Hill to folks in the future! Getting the binder in the mail with the DVD was really helpful in choosing a band for the wedding. The band's manager, Beth, was also really helpful and accomodating with all our requests.
Thanks so much for touching base with me you guys have been great to work with.

Originally we were trying to get this other band because I have been to many weddings and other events they have played, but they were boked. Not to take anything away from those guys, but Crystal Clear killed it, and that comment even came from a guy that had this other band play his wedding!

Andy,
I just wanted to let you know that we could not have been more pleased with Crystal Clear Band. They truly made the reception! Everyone loved them. Literally, they blew us away! In addition to being great entertainers, they were nice people, so accommodating and friendly. Beth was a true professional and so responsive. I would recommend the band to anyone looking for fabulous entertainment.
Many thanks to you and Sam Hill for working out the arrangement. It was everything I could have imagined for our wedding reception!
Thanks,
Tausha

The Crystal Clear Band was absolutely amazing and the perfect addition to our fantastic reception. I have never seen so many people on the dance floor so early on in the evening. They were punctual, funny, involved the guests, INCREDIBLE musicians and really made the party what it was. I have had 2 people ask me for their contact info for upcoming events and people in my office today (my first day back) have been going on and on about how great they were. Thanks for all of your help!

Oh my gosh, the band was awesome!!! I loved that they learned all of our songs, and they sounded great! I also was so excited that they let us play some of their accessory instruments like the shakers and the tambourines!!! Everyone got so into it and we had so many people at the end of the night!!! That's a true sign of a great band...
I am sure Chase can add more, but I LOVED them! I know that the wedding coordinator at Cherokee will definitely recommend them again...

Andy,
We loved the Crystal Clear Band. They were really fun, energetic, and easy to work with. Some of my favorite things about the band were there willingness to learn and incorporate specific songs we requested, the fact that they brought crowd instruments to play (tamborine, cowbell, etc), how they got everyone to interact and even called the wedding party on stage, etc. Everyone had such a great time, and we were very pleased and would definitely recommend them to anyone.
Thanks for a great suggestion!

Justine,
Just wanted to let you know how fabulous Crystal Clear was at my daughters wedding June 13th. I have never been to a wedding where 70% of the guests were dancing at any time from beginning to end. The guest came ready to party but the band had a large part of making this reception such a success. Best wedding and reception I have ever been to even if it was my own daughters. Please pass this on to the band, they were fabulous, engaged the crowd and performed expertly. Thanks again.

Dear Hank,
The Crystal Clear Band was a big hit at our reception. They were
professional, sounded great and were lots of fun. The dance floor was
crowded. Everyone asked about them. We have already referred them to
friends planning weddings.
Beth was especially helpful. She was with us early in the process,
planning, asking about special songs and establishing a timeline. That
evening, the band was set up early. Beth met us at the door when we came
into the club. The evening ran smoothly. We commend Beth and The Crystal
Clear Band for the excellent job they did.
Thank you for your help in planning the reception.

Hi Andy;
I just want you to know how wonderful our experience was from start to finish with you, Sam Hill Entertainment and The Crystal Clear Band.
From the moment I first contacted you to express my hopes for my daughter's wedding band, you have been so on it with helping me find the perfect band. Your website was great, your suggestions and finally the contacts you gave me all worked so well to help us narrow our search to the right group for us.
The Crystal Clear Band, managed by Beth was awesome to work with. It is hard to find bands with a manager who listens and puts you at ease about delivering the sound, songs and feel you want for your event. I use to book many bands for events, and this was by far the best experience I have had. The band learned four special songs for us on top of an already stellar song list!
To add to the challenge we presented, that being a group of people who love to party and dance; we also asked them to sing at the wedding on the beach! The three lead singers and the keyboardist did this for us and they set the mood beautifully with Bob Marlely's One Love and another song In Christ Alone/On Christ The Solid Rock medley. The first one brought the 220 people down to the beach with such joy and the second one set an amazing tone for this wedding which was set on an outcropping of rocks, ocean crashing behind them! It was perfectly done and so memorable for all of us that day.
On to the reception, quite simply put, Crystal Clear rocked the house. From the minute they started to the close of the evening, everyone was on their feet dancing. Curtis worked that crowd to a dance fever!! He was personable, funny and amazing with the crowd. The song list was great and it just kept everyone dancing and singing and cheering! I have to say it was even more fun than my college years as a Florida GATOR! And that says alot!
Thank you for making our wedding such the talk of our town!!! All the other parents have been put on notice by their kids that only Crystal Clear will do for their weddings!
Sincerely,
Patti Unruh

Mike,
I am sorry it has taken me a little while to respond to your email about the band, but THEY WERE AWESOME!! The only bad part was when they had to stop playing!
I am not sure if you have heard anything about the wedding but it was absolutely perfect! We had the best weather and the band was outside and we had a full moon come up over the oceanit was amazing. We also had the dance floor packed ALL NIGHT LONG!! One of my favorite times of the night is when Troy (my husband) and I stepped up on the terrace over looking the dance floor and watched ALL of our guests dancing and singing the with the band it was so fun!

Ashley and Neal's wedding was wonderful! Last week I sent Beth (with the
band) a note telling her how wonderful the band was and how much everyone
loved them. I have been to many weddings where no one danced and left
early not this wedding. When the band stopped everyone (including Ashley
and Neal) were still dancing and wanted them to continue it was, as the
bride and groom said, the perfect wedding. Thank you again and I will be
glad to refer them to others we actually had several people already ask
about them. I will send you pictures, if you would like, once I receive
them.

Andrew,
I appreciate you checking on your band. I have to say that they were amazing! They definitely exceeded all expectations, and the expectations were pretty high! Not only did they keep a constant crowd on the floor, but they had fun doing it. I like seeing entertainers who enjoy their gig and are not just there for a paycheck. As a Louisiana native, I appreciate great music, great entertainers, and truly a good time. The Crystal Clear Band provided all three. They're a very talented group and I would recommend them to anyone! In fact, I've been trying to convince 2 friends of mine who are getting married soon to have the Crystal Clear Band to play for their reception!
The band isn't the only aspect of the night that I would applaud! The band has a manager named Beth who is amazing as well! She worked with me through the planning process to make sure that we were getting the songs, at the times we wanted. She also kept me updated through the reception of our time frame. She was better than the 2 wedding coordinators that I had hired!
Out of all of the decisions that I made throughout the wedding planning process, the band was by far the best!
Thank you! I also enjoyed working with Justin. He provided a great deal of help while making the decision and I appreciate his honesty!
Thank you again!

THE CRYSTAL CLEAR BAND WAS ABSOLUTELY FABULOUS. THEY WERE PROMPT, PROFESSIONAL, AND COURTEOUS. WE COULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR A BETTER BAND. THE MUSIC AND SONGS WERE GREAT AND WE LOVED THAT THEY INTERACTED WITH THE CROWD. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD ABOUT THEM. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE THEM AGAIN. THEY ARE A CLASS ACT. EVERYONE RAVED ABOUT THE BAND AND THEY MADE THE RECEPTION A WONDERFUL OCCASION TO BE REMEMBERED.
