Awarded Best of Zola
Words can’t express how much we loved working with Ana & Jimmy and the entire Amp DJ Band Hybrid. My husband really wanted a band while I really wanted a DJ, Amp DJ band was the perfect mix. We found Ana & Jimmy immediately and were able to schedule a meeting with them the next day. We knew right away that they were right for us. They were extremely attentive and outgoing from the start. They answered all out of questions and addressed concerns we had. We booked them immediately because we didn’t want to miss out on the opportunity to work with them. We met with them several times through our 6 month planning process. They responded immediately to any questions that popped up along the way and even allowed us to make a last minute change the night before. They well exceeded our musical playlist, taking the songs we requested and tailoring the rest of the music to fit the vibe. There was a perfect mix of live songs and an awesome dj set. The amount of compliments my husband & I received about the band far exceeded anything we expected. All of our guests LOVED them (of course as did we). So many people reached out that night or the next day to say how impressed they were with Ana, Jimmy & the whole band. We also had an acoustic guitar player at our cocktail hour which was amazing. If you’re debating getting a band for your wedding because your heart is set on a DJ, seriously look no further than Amp DJ Band hybrid. You will not be disappointed. I want to have another event just to work with them again!

DJ Nate Murray is a consummate professional. He met with my wife and I before the wedding, gave us helpful and knowledgeable advice, and listened to our concerns. During the wedding reception he played the songs we requested for the first and second dance, and then (as agreed upon before) went into a playlist of songs he had arranged for the occasion, all of which were well-chosen and helped set an appropriately festive and easy-going mood. He interacted well with the guests, and set the right tone for the occasion. In short, I give him my highest recommendation.

Then, there are his musical talents he incorporates into the ceremonies as an option as well. Simply said, he is hands-down the best at what he does with the ukulele!

There is a reason why even after being in business since 2009, Jhakaas Entertainment has seen continuous success through our professional client focused approach leading to 5-Star Reviews on Yelp.

We loved having Mehul DJ our wedding! We hired Mehul for both our sangeet and our wedding ceremony / reception. He was very organized and provided suggestions and templates to make sure everyone was clear on what songs should be played at which moments (first dance, cake cutting, entrances, etc.). He did a great job of incorporating songs we / our parents had requested and did a great job of balancing between newer music and songs that got our parent's friends on the dance floor too! He also made sure to find us at the end of our Sangeet and asked if we were happy with the music / if there was anything he could improve on before the wedding the next day - he did great but really appreciated that he did this to make sure we were happy! All of our guests loved it and we had a full dance floor all night, both nights!

Kevin has been able to play for us on multiple occasions and each time he has knocked it out of the park, he played "Perfect - Ed Sheeran" when we got married at the San Diego Courthouse as a surprise for us. It was a fantastic performance and completely unexpected. He did a great job setting up and "hiding" away until it was the right time to come out. Then for our reception, Kevin played "Can't Help Falling in Love - Elvis" while the bride walked down the aisle and nailed it! He is extremely professional and worked with us to make sure that his performance matched our vision. He also played during cocktail hour and did a great job with our guests and playing amazing music!

He studied with the great Andres Segovia and has been featured on numerous CD's as a soloist and as a member of a variety of ensembles.

We are so happy to have had Fred at our wedding. He offered to let us use his PA system and in the stress leading up to the ceremony he was a true professional, everything was set up before I (the groom) arrived. Everything worked and it was one less thing to worry about, which was more comforting than I would have expected while I waited nervously. The music he played was wonderful and he seemed so happy to be there to play for us. He was accommodating and a very pleasant guest. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
