The Last Nites

Q: Do you learn new songs?

Absolutely! We know there is a good chance you have a special dance or a family party starter song that we don't currently have under our belts, but we're happy to add it to the catalog for you!

Q: Are the musicians I see the ones that will be at our wedding?

For sure. The musicians in our band are a part of the chemistry that makes us play our best. We have had almost the same line-up for over 10 years because we are committed to the music and each other. You will notice the difference once you see us perform!

Q: What do you wear?

We typically wear suits or dresses with a splash of color. If you're planning a black tie event, we can accommodate with no problem.

Q: Do you take music requests?

100%! We have one of the most diverse sets of music out there and we will make sure to tailor our set to be what you want to hear at the big party. Our vibe is all about the fun, and we are all about having the dance floor packed all night

Q: What makes you different from other musicians?

We're not like other wedding bands in all the right ways. We created this band because we truly love packing the dance floor with a fun and unique performance playing songs that aren't overplayed. And if it is an old standard, re try to re-invigorate our songs with a burst of energy to make them even better than the recordings! The musicians in our band are some of NYC's most sought after players, having side gigs with such bands as Bright Eyes, The Duke Ellington Orchestra, The Dap Kings, and more.

Q: Do you provide music for wedding ceremonies or cocktail receptions?

Yes we can. We offer live music for every event, all night, plus include use of our sound system for your officiant during the ceremony.

Q: Are there any extra fees when we book you?

No! The quote we offer will be all inclusive. We cover the insurance costs and don't add taxes at the back end. The only extra fees would be for extra ceremony or cocktail hour music, but we'll discuss that as we're putting all the details together with you.

About The Last Nites

The Last Nites

Band Leader

We are the go-to band for folks who want an authentic performance that is miles away from the usual Broadway-styled wedding experience. Our band was put together one musician at a time to make sure we had the right chemistry. That's why when you invite us to your celebration, you will not have to worry about not getting the band you hired. The Last Nites are a real band made up of amazing musicians who love to play music for music's sake.

We are a tight-knit dance band with over 15 years experience of infusing all of your favorite songs with new life. We’ve been told by couples, photographers, venues and other folks that we’re very easy to work with and a breath of fresh air, which was nice of them to say. If you want a band that is a talented, authentic and straight up fun, look no further than The Last Nites.

We had The Last Nites at our wedding in upstate NY on 9/14/24 and it was the best decision ever!!! Waylan was such a pleasure to work with, was very responsive and professional, and you can tell he's very passionate about what he does. We had The Last Nites do our ceremony, cocktail hour, and reception and they were amazing! Waylan had really great suggestions for song choices when we were stuck on what to do for the ceremony and entrance songs and it sounded fantastic. They learned 2 songs for us and executed them perfectly. During the reception, they truly brought the energy and everyone was up dancing ALL night! I received so many texts the next day about how amazing they were and asking how I found The Last Nites! We truly cannot thank you enough for making our day so fun, special, and stress free. I cannot recommend The Last Nites enough and we are so so grateful to have found them!!!

We had The Last Nites as our wedding band on 8-9-24 and could not have been happier with them! Our guests of all ages were on the dance floor all night as the band absolutely crushed some oldies, some classics, and some modern jams. Our guests kept telling us how electric the energy in the room was all night. The Last Nites also had to learn our first dance song and did an amazing job with it. They were accommodating every step of the way during the planning process. Could not recommend The Last Nites more, and we can't wait to see them again in the NYC area!
Couldn't stop dancing all night!

The Last Nites are without peer when it comes to making the evening truly unforgettable. People haven't been able to stop talking about how amazing they were - A perfect mix of old and new songs, an amazing vibe, and amazing sound. The Last Nites kept people on the dance floor the entire night, always bumping and dancing. It was important to us that the energy always be high, and The Last Nites absolutely delivered!
Absolutely Fantastic!

We had The Last Nites play at our wedding ceremony, cocktail hour and reception and everything was absolutely fantastic! Waylan was very flexible and responsive through our planning process and over communicative to the wedding event staff, in addition to ourselves. Our guests still rave about the music and only complaint was that their feet were sore the next few days from the non stop dancing. It was amazing!
