Griffin & the Gargoyles 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves Hastings, NE

Griffin and the Gargoyles is St. Louis’ premier high-energy party and dance band. Having won the 2020 St. Louis Post Dispatch’s “Readers Choice Favorite Band” award as well as the “Best Wedding Band” by the Perfect Wedding Guide’s Vendors’ Choice Awards six years in a row, musicianship and style is the reason Griffin and the Gargoyles has played to packed houses for many years. Their extensive play-list and freshness keeps the crowds coming back for more.

Griffin & The Gargoyles came together last minute to play at our wedding. We had another band lined up that canceled five days prior and while I was upset at the time, I lucked out! They are hands down the best, most fun and entertaining band you could hire! They will get the dance floor moving and it will be a blast all night long! Look no further. If you are reading this, then you should take my advice and book them already!

The Downtown Collective 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $6,800
  • Serves Hastings, NE for additional fees

The Downtown Collective Band was established in 2016 as just a couple of guys who wanted to jam out in the attic. We got some small gigs here and there doing hybrid DJ/live music performances. Then we found friends from music school/work that played instruments and made the jam bigger and got more gigs. Now we are known as one of the top bands in the Midwest. We love playing live music because you get a much more authentic experience with people actually playing instruments and sharing what they feel deep down in their soul as they perform! All of our past clients agree- Downtown Collective is a high energy group that gets everyone dancing!

Awarded Best of Zola
The Downtown Collective was absolutely outstanding and exceeded our expectations in every way. Their communication was excellent and professional from start to finish. The quality of their work and value was exceptional - the energy was amazing, their vocals were outstanding, and they were a true class act. Our guests raved about them all night long. Behind the scenes, they were communicative and great to work with. This band nailed it, and the energy was insane. If you're thinking of booking them, do it now - you'll be so thankful you did. Thank you, Downtown Collective, for helping us throw an amazing celebration!

Awarded Best of Zola
Erica is a delight to work with. Her music brings a cheerful, singer-songwriter-y, warmth to any party. She cares about her clients and seeks to make the moment special. She is flexible and doesn't get flustered by last minute changes even in a high-pressure moment. She learned several new indie songs just for me and the effect is something you would find on Sirius XM's coffeehouse station. Our guests also loved to sing along.

Wild Faith (Leonardo Armijo) 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $1,888
  • Serves Hastings, NE for additional fees

"My guests didn't stop raving about how awesome the band was." This is direct from a wedding client review. Our diverse repertoire allows us to help you create the perfect soundtrack for your wedding (Ask for our song list!) We are a contest winning, personable band looking to make your wedding unforgettable. We perform dozens of wedding per year. Great with all ages, special requests and have event planning experience. I'd love to provide price quotes tiered for up to a 6 piece band. That way you can find the perfect balance for your budget and music entertainment needs.

Working with Leo was a great experience. He went above and beyond in providing me the service I had anticipated. His band Wild Faith played for my wedding reception just last weekend and they sounded great. When I first started talking with Leo about his availability he was prompt in his communication and also offered to learn new song material beyond his already extensive set list. This was what really made Leo an exceptional value to us. His offer of learning special songs for us, attention to detail, timeliness in communication as well as showing up on time at our cold and rainy outdoor ceremony site were what he delivered. His band sounded great and he also nailed everyone of our requested songs. In my opinion Leo and his band were ultimately a great fit for us. His value in comparison to other bands I spoke with was unsurpassed. It's a shame that far to often when the term wedding comes up in the hiring process, bands and other vendors seem to charge more for no other reason than the simple fact that they chose to do so. Leo did not over charge for his services and his performance was simply amazing. My guests didn't stop raving about how awesome the band was. He made our wedding special with his professionalism, kindness and the unique sound of his band. He was engaging with the crowd and I wouldn't hesitate to hire Wild Faith again for any future needs. I highly recommend talking to Leo about any live music performances you need to book. He will over deliver and you will be the beneficiary of his work.
