Testimonials:
Shugga was everything and MORE than we could have ever asked for of a wedding band!!! All our guests from our parents friends to us young, rockin' folks ;) have asked us: "WHO WAS THAT BAND?" "HOW CAN WE SEE THEM AGAIN?" etc... etc... It really made our big day that much more special :) Throughout the evening romance, ...love, funk and positive high energy was kept alive through the music that filled our reception hall! Thanks again sooo much, boys!
We highly recommend Shugga for a wedding/event band! We also want to thank, Arthur, for all his time and patience before the wedding which resulted in the perfect evening filled with wedding musical bliss ;)
Love you guys!!!!
Dan & Elana Cochran
Hello Arthur and Shugga: thanks for being the ultimate wedding band! As you could probably tell, all of us -young, old, Canadian crew and London party girls - absolutely loved the music and could not stay away from that dance floor (despite the extremely hot weather). The ceremony music and horas were perfect. The danc...e music was exactly what we wanted: fun, funky and high energy. We also really appreciated your professionalism and responsiveness to our multiple questions in the lead up to the big day. We'll be sure to recommend you to others and look you guys up if ever in Toronto.
Thanks again,
Maya and Dan

Feedback
- Shugga was an absolute dream to work with. From the moment that they went on stage, they had all of us out of our seats on the dance floor. There wasn't a dull moment the entire night. They were all extremely talented, professional and fun! If it wasn't for them, I would've had no idea how good the party could've been. If you're looking for a band to always keep the party moving and a great time, Shugga couldn't be a better choice!
