Feedback

  • The Rhythm Kings played at our wedding reception, and they truly blew us away. Our guests can not stop talking about how great they were, and we agree! They had everyone on the dance floor all night, and their set list was spot-on. We could not have been happier with their performance - they helped make our night so fun and memorable. My only regret is that I don't have another event to plan so I can hire them again! Thank you so much again to the Rhythm Kings!! -- Katie A, Milwaukee, WI, 3/31/2012
  • The Rhythm Kings were fantastic, fun and we had a wonderful experience overall! We had an intimate wedding reception of about 80 people with ages ranging from 18 months to 85 years old and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the band. We received compliments on the music all night and I could not have been happier with having them share our special day. I would recommend them to anybody who wants to dance and have fun. You will not be disappointed! -- Lana L, Milwaukee, WI, 5/18/2012
  • We started the evening with a full dance floor at 8:00 and we finished with a full dance floor four hours later. It was an awesome evening! The group was very professional, engaging and energetic. The music was great. Everyone told my family it was the best wedding ever. The Rhythm Kings were a large part of the success! Thanks guys. -- Stephen S, Green Bay, WI, 8/27/2011
  • Would HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend the Rhythm Kings for any event. They played our wedding and had the dance floor rocking all night. Did a great job working the crowd and made the evening very special for the bride and groom. Even more important, they are the utmost professionals. They responded timely to emails, dressed for the occasion, and setup well in advance. With all the things to worry about during a wedding, the band was definitely not be one of them. Great group of guys, would recommend to anyone. -- Jordan C, Madison, WI, 8/6/2011
  • I've already received two emails from guests praising the music as excellent. Many people last night were complimentary and, quite frankly, I saw more people dancing then usual. The music was that good! -- Judith H, Brookfield, WI, 2/11/2012
  • The Rhythm Kings were in a word, great. best party band you could hope for. From the initial booking to the arrangements for setting up, the communication was excellent. The music was fabulous, fit both the crowd and the venue well. This is a cover band that really enjoys playing covers - they take pride in choosing the best music, not necessarily always biggest hits, and playing it really well. They also know how to get people up and dancing. I would definitely book them again -- Berel L, Franklin, WI, 7/30/2011
  • Marcell and the band were fantastic at our wedding in Lake Geneva, WI! Everyone at our wedding commented about what a great band they were. We enjoyed everything they sang. They were great at working the crowd and were very professional. I highly recommend this band! -- Jessica V, Lake Geneva, AZ, 7/23/2011
  • We could not have been happier for them to share such a big day with us. All of our guests just raved over them. We were lucky to have the Rhythm Kings play our wedding, which made the night a blast. A lot of our guest even were asking where the could see the band again. The best part about this band is they love playing their music just as much as we love hearing it! Chris and Katie -- Chris H, Kenosha, WI, 1/29/2011
  • There are no words to describe how good this band was to us. From start to finish, the level of professionalism, talent and overall likeability this group has is of the highest caliber. In addition to surpassing all expectations with their performance, Marcel and company went above and beyond the call of duty offering up 2 encores past their agreed upon times. They started early, played late and delivered an electric set tailored to our crowd. Besides wanting to have them out for my next 2 planned events, I have had 6 requests from other attendees for their contact info. A great group of talented musicians, and the nicest bunch of guys you could hope to meet. -- Mike L, Burr Ridge, IL, 8/28/2010
  • WOW! Sorry it took me so long to give feedback, we just got back from our honeymoon! Anyways, The Rhythm Kings were EXACTLY what we were hoping to have for our wedding reception. Every guest at the party came up to me exclaiming how awesome the band was! They kept us dancing all night! The band was also very professional, always returning phone calls, and also very accomodating. They let us make use of their equipment for toasts and our own music and they were very flexible. They were the perfect choice and I hope to see them again out at Summerfest or a friend's party soon! Eily Schroeder -- Eily S, Hartland, WI, 7/3/2010
