TESTIMONIALS:

JumpStart was amazing at my wedding. Their attention to all our little details really made our party special, not to mention that all their individual talent is amazing! Their new female vocalist has an amazing voice. I was so lucky to be able to hire them! With their blow up plastic guitars for the audience, incorporating my guests, and keeping the party going...we had so much fun. Thank you thank you thank you! We didn't have to worry about a thing, such professionals! -Johnna & Josh Restori -- Johnna C, Reno, NV, 10/16/2010


These guys totally rock! Other vendors in the Tahoe area generally are flaky, incompetent, and overpriced. But not JumpStart - these guys are pros and it shows. The music was fun, high-energy, and kept our wedding crowd on the dance floor all night. If we could give 6 stars, we would. Hire them for your wedding and you won't be disappointed!

--Jenna & Brian's Wedding Incline Village, NV.

JumpStart added so much to our wedding ceremony and reception. They are an amazing collaboration of extremely talented, great spirited, non-attitude band members. They knew exactly what to play to fit the festive mood of our event! Literally, every song they played had people running to pack the dance floor. My sister and girlfriend discovered them playing at Camp Richardson during the Summer and called me right away and told me they "found the perfect band for my wedding". I immediately visited their website and listened to their awesome music. I booked them as quickly as I could. I am 100% satisfied with their performance. They are worth every penny and then some. They even played for the ceremony which was an added bonus. Everyone was so touched by their rich and soulful voices. Stan did an excellent job at MC- ing the event as well. He is a charismatic speaker and knows how to organize and time things well. This was a great asset to the evening. Added bonuses included a lot of audience participation such as having the bridesmaids jump on stage and play tambourines and sing, a solo song they let me sing with them, and letting my dad play harmonica and sing a blues tune! What fun. I highly recommend this band if you want a truly magical experience that great music can deliver. I recently attended two other receptions. One had a DJ. It was good but did not have the excitement or personal touch that LIVE entertainment delivers, especially GREAT live entertainment like JumpStart!! The other reception didn't have music at all. It was very mellow. All there was to do was talk for hours and eat. The right music and dancing adds so much more! If you get a chance, visit their website and check them out! Or better yet, see when/where they are playing and experience them yourself. They are truly awesome!! I will book them with out a doubt again any chance I get!

--Jennifer Plevel (The Bride) -Hawaii

Excellent....Had a wonderful time watching and dancing. You really engaged the guests. We had fun with the blow up instruments.

--Dee Dee, Sonoma, CA

JumpStart absolutely ROCKED at our wedding reception (Very professional). The good energy they created was infectious. They had the dance floor packed all night. We would refer this band to anyone looking for an awesome time.

--Shawn & Trish Huestis, So. Lake Tahoe, CA

Hats off to your performance Friday night. This was the first times in years that we can remember having to tell people the event was over and that the dancing had to come to a stop. We think the partiers would have stayed all night if allowed.

--South Tahoe Association of Realtors, South Lake Tahoe, CA

We really enjoyed your band and hope to see you perform again soon. You guys rock!

-Lynne Murphy, San Bruno, CA

Feedback

  • JumpStart was terrific from the get-go. Stan was communicative and gave me confidence that it was going to be great. He said, more than once, don't worry, we will take care of the music. When you are working with someone you have never worked with before, you tend to be a little nervous. I received many comments "they were the best band we have had". We will use them again. Besides all of the above, they were fun. Good time was had by all! Thank you. -- Sharon M, Stockton, CA, 12/3/2010
  • FANTASTIC! The most accommodating, cheerful, fun, enthusiastic, professional, entertaining band we have ever hired. They did not put on a concert for us, but rather engaged the entire group of 300+ in an evening of sheer enjoyment, laughter, entertainment, and fantastic, danceable music. They played to a very diverse demographic group and successfully entertained everyone. I heard nothing but rave reviews for a week after our event. Current, hip, classic -- you get it all with this band. We will be hiring JumpStart for our next event and have already been asked by our event venue personnel to pass on JumpStart's information to them for New Year's Eve. -- Tonja J, Santa Rosa, CA, 12/18/2010
  • It would be hard to top this band. They were top-notch and well worth the cost. They worked hard and sounded fantastic. The announcing portion of the event was handled by Stan Freeman and was well orchestrated. The first dance was Elton John's "Your Song" which was beautifully done. Mom wanted Guns'n Roses's "Sweet Child of Mine" which turned out to be a perfect lead in song to get everyone on the dance floor before it was over and all geared up for a rocking good time. The energy steamrolled into several hours of raucous fun! All ages of guests were captivated by the music. People can't stop talking about it! What a great night! -- Diane D, Santa Cruz, CA, 9/3/2011
  • They were great. Would love to use them again in the future. -- Samantha T, Napa, CA, 10/22/2011
