DESCRIPTION:
WEDDING RECEPTIONS, CORPORATE EVENTS & OTHER PRIVATE AFFAIRS: 56DAZE is the Perfect Entertainment for your Perfect Occasion! 56DAZE is equally at home playing wedding receptions, corporate events, street festivals or other private parties as well as local and regional night spots. We'll work with you and adjust our song list to play the music you want to hear. We're not the typical "wedding band" – which is why we're such a great choice for your wedding reception or other private party. We are incredibly versatile and will literally drive the show through decades of "danceable" rock & roll favorites. From the rock classics and 80's dance, to the 90's alternative and today's modern rock and country, we have a little of something for everyone. Our goal is to create "ENERGY" through our performance that will motivate and captivate audiences of all ages. We guarantee a party at every show and promise to have everyone at your event dancing, singing, smiling, laughing and having an all out unforgettable experience.

EMCEE SERVICES: Tony Poling, of 56DAZE, will be happy to EMCEE your entire event. He will work with you to ensure the correct name pronunciations of all attendees needing an introduction, from wedding parties, board members, and special guests. There will be a wireless microphone available at all times for toasts, prayers, and any special announcements.

PRODUCTION: We are meticulous about our sound, lighting, and stage appearance. From our speakers, mixers, monitors, amps, instruments, and lighting, we use professional, touring grade equipment. This will ensure only the best possible sound and show for your event.

CONTINUOUS MUSIC: 56DAZE will provide pre-recorded music of your choice during the cocktail hour, dinner, and while on break.

DECORUM: We can assure you that if we perform at your event we will present ourselves professionally and reflect your requirements. We have performed at many local and regional night spots, weddings, festivals, and private functions and are well aware of the different atmospheres and what is appropriate behavior and dress for each.

Here is what some of our previous clients have said:

"AWESOME, Very Professional, & Top of the Line - Describes your work at my daughter's wedding. Everyone enjoyed - I mean EVERYONE, enjoyed the band and stated that you were the best band they have ever heard at a wedding. It was packed on the dance floor from the beginning to the end and was even more packed as the night went on! ~David Hautamaki (Father of the Bride) - April 12th, 2008 Wedding in Ann Arbor, MI~ ___________________________________________________________________

"Had a great time at the Firemen's Ball and looking forward to having you guys back next year. This was by far the best dance that they have had due to your entertainment. Throughout the night guests kept telling my husband (Northville Firefighter) what a great band you guys were. See ya next year!!! P.S. Thanks for posting all those pics. ~Adrienne Raschke (Fireman's Wife) - Feb 9th, 2008 Northville Township Firemans Ball & Fundraiser - Sheraton - Novi, MI~

___________________________________________________________________

"You guys MADE our wedding. I cannot tell you how many compliments we've gotten on your performance. You kept us on our feet from the first chords to the last of the encores! For anyone who's looking for a band to play their wedding or event anywhere near Northern Ohio the search is over- you guys (56DAZE) are it!" ~Carey Jaros (Bride) - Wedding in Cleveland, OH~

___________________________________________________________________

"The guys of 56 Daze rocked the square last night here in downtown Lima! We host many bands throughout the summer season and they were one of the crowd favorites. What a great mix of music! Thanks" ~Brett Shingledecker (Executive Director- ART SPACE LIMA) - Rally In The Square, LIMA, OH~

___________________________________________________________________

"Hilary and I want to express our sincere appreciation and thanks for your incredible performance at our reception. As any couple planning a wedding, we were faced with the decision of hiring a band or a dj. We wanted to have a variety of songs, but we also wanted our wedding to be a special experience for everyone. You guys made it that special experience. Our reception was absolutely perfect -- you guys played songs that kept everyone dancing, from parents/grandparents and little kids, to our friends. I don't know how you do it, but everyone, regardless of age, just loved the music! " ~Ross Bower & Hilary Lyman-Bower (Bride & Groom) - Wedding in Traverse City, MI~ ___________________________________________________________________

"Thank you so much for making Courtney and Jonathan's wedding reception so special. Family and friends are still talking about it and how great your band is. Courtney and Jonathan said from the start of all the plans for the wedding they had to have you. I know now why. Again thank you." ~Denise Shaffstall (Mother of the Bride) - Wedding in Cleveland, OH ~

___________________________________________________________________

"Tony, you and the guys did an incredible job with our annual Corporate Holiday Party. You were able to read the crowd and react accordingly. Your interaction with our employees kept the party going all night long, and the dance floor was never empty. I am so glad to see that 56DAZE has the ability to be diverse by being a great bar band, but kicking up the level of professionalism when needed to be a crowd pleaser for the corporate set too. Thanks again!" ~Mark Simon, (Surface Combustion, Inc) - Corporate Holiday Party~

__________________________________________________________________

"We wanted to thank you for 'MAKING' our wedding! To this day our guests can't stop talking about how awesome the band was at our wedding. The music selection was perfect! Thanks again for making our wedding unforgettable!" ~Andrea & Adam Fries (Bride & Groom) - Wedding in Toledo, OH ~ __________________________________________________________________

    If you want a great band to get the crowd dancing choose 56 Daze! We were a little nervous booking them because we had never seen them peform live. We just read all of the great reviews and got in touch w/ a couple of past clients. Everything was true--they were great to work with, our guests loved them, and everyone danced the whole night! They really made our wedding memorable!!

    Overall, 56 Daze is awesome! The dance floor was packed the entire night at my wedding reception! They can sing any song and they are so accomodating. Tony MC'd my entire wedding reception which was great! We spoke on the phone a week before the wedding to make sure we had everything planned out. My family & friends are still talking about how great the band was! This is a great band to hire for any type of occasion! They are worth every cent!
