CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

We had a blast with Mark Valentine and the Old School Knights! They were the best "non-stuffy yet classy" band we could have chosen for our reception at the Nelson-Atkins Museum. The dance floor was going from the beginning to the end of the party because they were so fantastic! Mark was very easy to work with at the reception. He and the band definitely aimed to please us by making sure we were hearing all of the songs we wanted and he was very good at reading the crowd to decide on songs that we didn't request. We would highly recommend this band to anybody looking to throw a great party!"

Valentine's Old School Knights were the perfect wedding band! They had a lot of energy, were very talented, and they could play any song we requested.

A few words from Mark Valentine for Brides ...

It's your wedding reception. You have your own ideas. You need the band to understand. You need a band that is going to wow your friends and family and fit your budget. You need a band that can play songs your older guests like and still play music for you and your friends. You need a band that can play softer music and instrumentals during the cocktail hour and dinner, and play your favorite dance music later. You need a band with an extensive song list who will also play your special songs even if they have to learn them just for your wedding. You need a band with a front man who is a good emcee and a band who will work well with you. The Old School Knights are that band! Let us be a part of your special day. You won't regret it.

Sincerely,

Mark Valentine The Old School Knights
