Onyx Music

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves New York, NY

Ranging from a full Dance party to prohibition-era Jazz, Funk and Motown, down-home Bluegrass, classical harp, all-vinyl DJ's and more, our commitment to authenticity in both sound and style brings a tasteful alternative to your event. Whether it be a huge corporate event at the Ritz Carlton ballroom or your dream wedding in your family backyard, we know booking a band can seem a little daunting at first. With Onyx Music, we strive to make the process as easy and transparent as possible to ensure that booking the band is the easiest part of your event!

The Speakeasies absolutely blew our minds! Everything from start to finish was so simple and thorough and Josh and Marie from ONYX were so sweet and professional every step of the way. From the initial emails figuring out what the best options were for us- to talking us through all of the questions we had along the way and always being so quick to respond to all of our emails/texts- I’d absolutely recommend ONYX Artists for any event you need a live band for. We had them play for both a seated dinner portion and a dance set and they were both perfect. Classy and not too loud when we needed it mellow and so fun when everyone got on the dance floor. We got so many compliments and we’ve just been looking for any excuse to hire them again :)

Cellist JA 

5.0

  • Ceremony only
  • Serves New York, NY

Beautiful, immersive and intimate music played on the cello for your event. I play solo, with backing tracks, with effects, and I have my own speaker system. I arrange my music custom for your event upon hearing what your vision is. I am fully insured and I am easy to keep in contact with. I began playing cello when I was around 9, a family tradition. I studied with a principal cellist of the Rochester Philharmonic. I am well versed in music other than classical, and am well versed in many different styles. I also take the time to talk to guests, friends, and whoever else is enjoying the music on the occasion.

James delivered a breathtaking performance at our wedding, flawlessly arranging and playing a selection of songs that captivated all our guests. His incredible talent added a unique and heartfelt touch to our ceremony, creating a memorable and emotional experience for everyone present. James truly has a gift for connecting with his audience, and his music elevated our special day to another level. We couldn't be more grateful for his contribution and highly recommend him to anyone seeking a talented and professional musician for their event.

I met Jamie while he was DJing at a venue in Manhattan many moons ago. I was immediately pleased with the music he chose and went up to the booth and we got to talking about music and art. He was so easy going and truly in tune with the beat of the venue. We kept in touch and I then went to several more of his venues where he was DJing with friends and also with my (now) husband. When we decided to get married and keep it really small our one must-have was excellent music because we love dancing but are not fans of standard wedding DJ music. I immediately contacted Jamie and on short notice he was able to schedule a meeting with us to discuss our needs. Jamie came prepared with a list of questions and helped us work through the different moods we wanted to set and organized the music choices. We gave him some ideas and he did the legwork of deciding what specific songs would lead into each of the unique parts of a wedding and reception (dancing, eating, more dancing, only the young people dancing, etc.). To this day my husband and I talk about how much fun we had at our wedding and how we were really able to make every piece of it ours - right down to the music that was not pulled off some Billboard chart but that truly reflected us and the people in our lives. In fact Jamie was so great the venue asked if he would be willing to come back and DJ some of their future events :)

HIRE MOD SOCIETY! You will not regret it!! From start to finish, everything about working with Mod Society was incredible. Firstly, Claudio is truly such a pleasure to work with- he is extremely responsive, organized, and kind! He made the entire process very easy and I could tell that he was genuinely invested in his clients. Secondly, the talent of the band is truly unbelievable. We had multiple different configurations of the band during our wedding- duo during the ceremony, jazz quartet for cocktail hour, part of the band during dinner, and then the full 9 piece band during the dancing. At every point in the day, they were amazing! The full band played the perfect set list and with such incredible energy that pretty much every guest was on the dance floor jumping up and down and dancing the night away. It was truly the most epic wedding party thanks to Mod Society! We had multiple guests tell us it was the best wedding band they had ever heard and some have already told us they they want to book Mod Society for their own weddings/events! I can't say enough wonderful things about Mod Society and would highly recommend them for any wedding!

My love of music started in the back seat of my dads car as he took me to daycare, with Marvin Gaye's "What's Goin On" on repeat. My love of music spans generations, cultures and genres, and has taken me all over the world, from England, Spain, St. Marteen, and Austria. My hope is that you allow me to curate a musical experience that will leave your guest talking about your wedding for years to come. As for me, I am a Brooklyn native, who during the pandemic was able leave corporate career to pursue my passion of music. My perspective, is to include and create, safe spaces for guests to feel young, and carefree - even if for a few moments.

Best decision we made regarding our wedding was booking Gregory. His energy, enthusiasm, and passion for curating the perfect music set for us was evident from the very start. He really cared to get to know us, our culture, and our musical styles—which was a very wide range! He really mixes all genres effortlessly. Like he’s truly an incredible artist. In addition to his musical talent, what’s most admirable is his love for music and passion for how music should make people feel. He put a smile on everyone’s face by interacting with the crowd and showing our guests new dance moves! Even though our wedding was 30 people the energy he created made it feel like a HUGE PARTY. Our other vendors even stayed beyond their contractual times because they loved the DJ and we’re having so much fun they didn’t want to leave just yet! Gregory is still the talk of our wedding, weeks later, guests have texted us randomly just to say how great the DJ was at our wedding.

Peter & the Master Keys is not only a great jazz band with vocals, it's also an energetic dance band specializing in the best soul, blues, and rock n' roll from the 50s and 60s plus a few more contemporary numbers to round out the set. Think Sinatra and Nat King Cole early in the night and then Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, Elvis and more later on. The idea is to play fun and energetic music that is timeless and can inspire guests of all ages to dance. We also perform as a trio and quartet for smaller occasions or cocktail parties. Packages include ceremony music, MC, jazz cocktail hour, and dance music.

music makes the difference between a normal wedding and an unforgettable wedding. From our first conversation to the last note that the band played, they were truly unforgettable. The first time we talked, Peter told me that his goal was to get everyone dancing, from the youngest to the oldest. All I can say is that all of my nephews spent the entire night on the floor and the grandmother of the bride got up to share a special moment dancing with her grand-daughter. They were nothing short of outstanding, and I can't speak highly enough about them. If you want a group that is talented, easy to work with, and care about their client, then look no further!

During the wedding he was punctual, flexible, and kept us on track; he made sure that we could enjoy it to the fullest. Plus, he was an excellent DJ and got everyone on the dance floor the whole night!

NO WEDDING SONGS OR SPORTSCASTER VOICE! We are music nerds. Once dancing starts, we put the mic down. We love being wedding DJs, but we are different from all the other wedding DJs. If you are looking for a DJ for your wedding, contact us now to schedule a Zoom call!

Working with Ben is always a pleasure. He is communicative, easy to work with and I know that the wedding day and night will be fun and go off without a hitch. Ben tailors weddings for each couple, understanding that no two weddings are the same and that every couple and family have different tastes in music. I've only known Ben to throw an epic dance party, his playlists on his website are amazing and is always willing to share helpful planning tips for his couples to make their process as stress-free and fun as possible. I highly recommend Ben :) Lara

New York Ceremony Music 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Serves New York, NY

Topu Lyo and Randy Bergida began performing together in 1999 when their friends and siblings started getting married. With each event came many personal requests for music and they discovered their knack for arranging any type of song and founded the cornerstone of New York Ceremony Music with their custom arrangements on cello and guitar. They have been collaborating in their musical endeavors for 20 years and now they have a diverse, ever-growing repertoire ranging from The Beatles to Fleet Foxes, Elliot Smith to The National, Depeche Mode to Django Reinhardt and everything in between.

As a professional wedding officiant, I am always relieved when I see that NY Ceremony Music will be providing the music for a wedding ceremony. Randy and Topu are brilliant musicians, affable gentlemen, casual, classy, creative, improvisational and just a joy to work with. My ceremonies often include creative elements with musicians, and they are always quick to catch on to what I want to accomplish. I love them. I can't say enough good things about working with them!

Shaded Soul Band 

5.0

  • Band or Ensemble
  • Starts at $5,200
  • Serves New York, NY

Shaded Soul Band is based in Connecticut and travels across New England to perform at weddings, corporate functions, outdoor concerts, and other events. R&B, Motown, Funk Soul, Jazz, Reggae, Swing, Rock, Pop, Disco, and Top 40 are only a few of the decades represented in our music. Five of our eight members sing lead vocals so we are able to offer a wide range of music to choose from. If you are looking for a high-energy, fun, versatile live wedding band with a flair for style and sophistication you have found us!

Renee and Shaded Soul Band were the life of the party at our wedding in Madison CT this June!! After speaking with a number of Boston and NY based bands, we came across Shaded Soul and had the opportunity to chat with Renee. For the first time in the process we didn't feel like we were being sold magazines at the door or an overpriced used car with hidden problems. Renee spoke with us like we were real people, had endless tips and tricks for planning a fantastic reception, and didn't nickel and dime us for every extra note sung or string strummed. Renee and Shaded Soul provided music for our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception. They accommodated our friends acoustic guitar number during the ceremony, played playlists we had put together during times they weren't playing, but when it came time to play the right song to keep everyone on the dance floor, we left it to the band and they made all the right choices.... we saved money on booze because no one would take a break from dancing to go to the bar! The musicianship of this band is top notch, they are all masters of their crafts and unlike many other wedding bands they have clearly been playing together for years. No rotating through a roster of musicians, booking the band under the same name at multiple events in one night, just a group of talented players with a deep repertoire whose passion is getting people to dance and have a great time. A huge thanks to Renee and Shaded Soul Band for helping make our wedding the best night of our lives!

The Vintage DJ 

5.0

  • DJ
  • Starts at $4,000
  • Serves New York, NY

The Vintage DJ presents the most electrifying music of the 20th Century as it was meant to be experienced! Spinning only original 45s, 33s and 78s from the 1920s through the 1970s on two tube-powered vintage record players, The Vintage DJ arrives and we hear that unique sound, filling the air with the feeling that anything is possible. His killer record collection runs the gamut between Jazz and Latin, Soul and R&B, Rock ’n’ Roll, British Invasion, Reggae and much more. As The Vintage DJ, Jonathan has been setting dance floors alight from New York City to Shanghai to Los Angeles.

When we were planning our wedding we wanted to make sure that everyone who came - our nearest and dearest - would enjoy every minute of it, and remember it fondly for years to come. The Vintage DJ worked with us to curate the music hour by hour. From arrivals, wedding entrance, cocktail hour, and party, every song was perfect, and everyone - even those who don't normally get up to dance - danced! Having a record player and the beautiful vinyl covers displayed was a beautiful touch which made our special day, even more special! Jonathan is a complete professional and a pleasure to work with!
