Feedback

  • Not many bands can have the entire dance floor full ALL night long but they did! Our daughters wedding was fabulous because of Goodfoot. I wish I could afford to have a wedding every weekend to hear them play. All our friends told us how great they were too. Dave is the absolute nicest guy and so pleasant to work with over the phone or e-mail. They traveled three hours to play for us and then after playing till 11pm, packed up and drove 3 hours home, not many bands are willing to do that! I would highly recommend this band if you like the versatility of quite piano music, soft dinner music and great get down funky dance music! Goodfoot is the BEST!!! -- Patricia B, Reston, VA, 10/22/2011
  • Had a great time with this band! I would tell you to book them for any and all parties! -- Alneasa J, Reading, PA, 8/27/2011
  • What a fantastic Wedding Band!! Goodfoot is a talented group of musicians that just set the mood for the party. Everybody commented to me what a great band this is and how it made the wedding so much fun. The dance floor was packed the whole time, with people aged 10 to 100! Yes our 100 year old uncle could be seen on the floor busting a move! I want Goodfoot to play at all of our parties from here on in. -- Bob W, Wilmington, DE, 6/25/2011
  • I would highly recommend Good Foot! Before the wedding, I was in touch with David Zipse, who was wonderful about staying in touch with me about details and taking any requests from us about what we did and did not want. At the wedding, all of the band members were professional and courteous and greatly contributed to making the evening fun for all of our guests. The music was perfect for a multi-generational crowd – everyone was up and dancing all night! Guests raved about the band afterwards. We are so thankful we found Good Foot - I could not imagine a better band to help celebrate any occasion! -- Naomi S, Towson, MD, 5/29/2011
  • These guys were great--so talented and professional. They really enjoy what they do and their enthusiasm carried over to the guests. It makes for a wonderful party. We had a wedding with a very mixed age crowd and everyone enjoyed the music. They certainly lived up to the reputation of getting all guests up to dance! David was terrific on the keyboard and provided background music for the cocktail hour and during the beginning of dinner. It was very pleasant and allowed people to actually have conversations. I highly recommend Goodfoot for your party. Linda -- Linda S, Princeton, NJ, 11/27/2010
  • Good Foot had absolutely everything to do with making our wedding a success! A perfect mix of slow and upbeat songs that kept everyone dancing all night. They learned a few songs that we requested and even let my wife and I get up and play with them for a song. Just a great group of guys! Most important to me was that unlike a lot of other wedding bands and djs, they weren't cheesy. They seem to avoid all of the tired songs that are always played at weddings while still playing music that everyone can recognize. I highly recommend Good Foot and, in my opinion, you can't beat the value. I can't say enough. Thanks guys! ----Nick & Monica -- Nicholas B, Abbottstown, PA, 9/18/2010
  • Good Foot was amazing! From the very moment I got in contact with Dave he was so professional. He responed to our many questions immediatly. They met every request we had for them, & their proformance exceeded our expectations. Our family did not stop dancing all night and the band only took one short break. All of our guests commented on how great they were. We think that bands are the best entertainment at a wedding & we would strongly recomend Good Foot to anyone. We don't have a single bad thing to say about them. Thank you Dave and the rest of the band members of Good Foot you made our day so amazing. I hope you all had as much fun as we did. Mara and PJ -- Mara F, Scranton, PA, 7/10/2010
  • I have nothing but great things to say about Goodfoot and David Zipse. The band was very professional, talented and overall just fun to have at a wedding. We received many compliments the next day on the choice of a live band over a DJ, and all of our guests had a great time. The band was very accommodating to all our requests and helped make our day very special. If you have some songs special to you, they are willing to learn them, and if you would rather keep the original version, they are able to provide a seamless transition to a song via mp3 or cd. -- Matthew B, Reading, PA, 11/21/2009
  • Great band, really nice guys, everyone at the party raved about them and the band also seemed to really enjoy themselves. Really fun and amazing voices and saxaphone and great song selection! -- John G, West Chester, PA, 8/15/2009
  • Goodfoot preformed for our homeowners association at an outdoor concert. All members were super nice and very talented. I received many compliments from our homeowners. Thank you guys, you were awesome. -- Julie E, Downingtown, PA, 8/16/2009
  • Good Foot was phenominal!!! They were the best band I have ever hired. This band played something for everyone -- a good mix of 50's through 90's. The sound was incredible. Hire this band!!!! -- Kathleen P, Philadelphia, PA, 1/10/2009
  • Good Foot was a pleasure to work with. I received numerous compliments from my guests about the music. The band made sure the noise level and song selection was appropriate for our function. I would work with them again without question. -- Mike F, King Of Prussia, PA, 2/5/2012
