Feedback
- Ok stop what you are doing and book this band now! They are AMAZING!!! (and even amazing doesn't cover how incredible they are). My wife and I were looking for a fun interactive cover band that would play a huge variety of music and we were lucky enough to find Sugar the Band! My parents and their friends loved it and were dancing all night, our friends were dancing all night, my grandparents danced and also had a great time. Bryan really listened to us AND give great planning advice!!! Sugar the band should charge double what they charged us. Yes they are that good!!! Thanks for making this the most fantastic wedding reception ANY of our guests had ever been to! -- Eric L, Chapel Hill, NC, 10/18/2008
- Hands down this is the best wedding band our guests had ever seen!Sugar the Band are so good you can't really call them a wedding band. Every detail was looked after thanks to Brian and Kat's voice is truly incredible. All of our guests stayed on the dance floor all night. Song after song our friends and family couldn't get enough. My sister is getting next year and we have already booked them to play her wedding reception. They play such a variety and they really do let you pick ALL of the songs. My parents were so blown away that such a cool band played songs that EVERYONE LOVED. We LOVE Sugar the Band. Thanks for making everything so special!!! -- Mary A, Charleston, SC, 10/21/2008
- We hired Sugar the Band for our corporate holiday party and they ROCKED! No other band has ever interacted the way Sugar the Band did! Everyone commented on how great and talented they are and demanded we have them back again next year. If you are looking for a band that can play a HUGE variety then they are it! Thanks to all of the members of Sugar as they made our holiday party the most successful/fun we have ever had (no one else compares!). -- Francisca H, Raleigh, NC, 12/4/2008
- Sugar the Band is one of the best bands we have ever seen! Everyone during the reception was up dancing and I mean everyone. Sugar was very engaging with all of our guests. Many of our guests asked where we found them and when we told them we booked them originally based on their online referals and feedback alone!!! Sugar the Band was like going to one of your favorite concerts and now that we have seen them we would have paid $10,000+ to have them play the reception. Everyone in the band is so profesional and Bryan did a great job ensuring that it was a huge success. Thanks for making my reception, "the BEST reception any of our guest have ever been to". -- Christ B, Southport, NC, 5/31/2008
- SUGAR the Band is amazing! I hired them because of the ratings on gigmasters after seeing them perform live. This has to be one of the best cover bands we have ever seen!!! ALL of my guests had a great time and commented about how awesome they are!!! If you want to impress your guests with a band that puts some national/major acts/bands to shame, hire Sugar the Band. And one more thing, they are EXTREMELY PROFESSIONAL!!!!! -- Tracie R, Wrightsville Beach, NC, 3/30/2008
- SUGAR (the Band)put on a fabulous show! They are by far one of the best bands many of us have seen. They were fantastic! We will definately book them again for our corporate functions in North Carolina. Brian was a pleasure to work with, very professional, and accomidating. Thank you SUGAR (tha Band).
Sincerely,
Meghan Porter

- This band was AWESOME, from management, to music, to the professionalism! Everyone was fun and personable. They played a great musical variety for all ages and tastes! They are a great choice for your wedding, they are not your typical, boring wedding band! They are FUN FUN FUN! -- Kate P, Williamsburg, VA, 9/1/2007
- Sugar The Band was the perfect match for our corporate launch party. They displayed a high level of energy and talent. The band has an expansive play list which can please ANY crowd. We certainly were impressed and would love to have them entertain for us again in the future! They ROCK!!
-- Jeff S, Cary, NC, 8/16/2007
- These guys are absolutely amazing. They made our wedding one that not only my wife and I will remember, but everyone else in attendance will always remember as well. I would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing cover band for a wedding or even just a party. Bryan rocks and is very easy to work with. Thanks again guys for an awesome time...we'll see you again next time you're playing in town and we will be booking Sugar again in the future. -- Dj U, Wilmington, NC, 7/14/2007
- Right from the start, it was great working with Bryan! The process to secure and book Sugar went incredibly smoothly.
Bryan's accessibility and willingness to work with our family was unprecedented and his enthusiasm added to our energy, which helped to make our planning process easy.
Sugar was extremely accommodating in all aspects, through constant communication and willingness to work with us on our song list. They were even willing to learn a few new songs for us!
We appreciate all of Sugar's hard work to make our event a successful one! -- Emily S, Winston-Salem, NC, 6/30/2007
- We hired SUGAR the Band for our private event and were blown away by their performance! We are hiring them again for our next event. SUGAR's professionalism and overall performance are comparable to national acts. I cant say enough about how great the music (very diverse) and members of this band are. If you want to impress your guests hire SUGAR the Band! -- Chris D, Fuquay Varina, NC, 5/26/2007
- Sugar the Band is outstanding! They absolutely MADE our wedding reception. I would hire them again tomorrow. They had everyone dancing and the energy level never died. I give my highest recommendation for this bamd. -- Kelly D, Burlington, NC, 5/12/2007
- SUGAR the Band was unbelievable. We knew they rocked when we hired them but their actual performance at our wedding surpassed all of our already high expectations. And we are major music snobs! And so are our friends because all of us have been to so many weddings where the band can really make or break a wedding reception. Every single guest (young and old) commented on how much fun SUGAR was and how talented they are. They can play anything and were so engaging with the crowd. Many people said that they had never seen such a high percentage of wedding guests on the dancefloor all at the same time. And the other guests who were standing on the edges watching (probably b/c they had to rest their dancing feet for a moment) were having a great time as well watching the band and everyone dancing. My parents' friends were up dancing, all of my friends were up dancing, we had some little kids on the dancefloor as well...I would recommend SUGAR to anyone. They completely rocked and ended the night with 200 enthusiastic new fans. We had friends saying that they already wanted to hire SUGAR for their own wedding. I would have rated them a 10 on a 1-5 scale. They were so friendly and accomodating with our requests beforehand. They are also good at going with the flow and feeling out the crowd. They were professional and such a pleasure to work with. My husband and I had the best time at our wedding and it would not have been the same if we hadn't hired SUGAR.
-Amy (the bride) -- Amy Z, Bluemont, VA, 5/5/2007
- From start to finish, SUGAR (the Band) provided the utmost in customer service. They immediately responded to our request for information, were one of the only bands willing to play 3 hours without taking breaks, were wonderful to deal with in terms of song-selection (not to mention that they can do nearly ANYTHING, including a LOT of current songs) and their talent was incredible. If they don't get a recording contract in the next couple of years, I'll be shocked.
Our guests were floored by how talented they were; the dance floor was packed from the first song until the last. Our parents couldn't believe how professional they were and we were thrilled with the way they ran the entire evening.
Finally, they are very reasonably-priced for what you get. They were the best cover band I've ever seen, and even rivaled some concerts (like Dave Matthews) for entertainment value.
To sum it up, SUGAR (the Band) ROCKS, no pun intended. -- Jacque R, Charleston, SC, 4/14/2007
- They were fantastic! All our guests were so impressed by their performance and enthusiam throughout the night. -- Amanda M, Charelston, SC, 1/20/2007
- We had a 1920's Great Gatsby bash for the Junior League of Wilmington. SUGAR was the hit of the party! Not only did all of the members dress up twenties style, they were in high spirits & got the crowd dancing the night away! I would definitely reccommend SUGAR again & again!! -- Jana F, Wilmington, NC, 12/9/2006
- SUGAR was great. The entire night went off without a hitch, and we had a blast. Our guests were so impressed with Cat, everyone danced all night long. We are recommending them to all of our friends. The price is great too!
-- Morgan Z, Durham, NC, 10/7/2006
- Sugar is one of the most Professional bands you can hire! They go the extra mile to make sure everything is customized and they EXCEED your expectations! A VERY INTERACTIVE band that keeps your crowd happy and dancing all night. Great coordination and communication before/during the reception. The music and harmonies were INCREDIBLE with female and male vocalist, they played a great diverse mix of music! If you want your guests speaking about the fun they had at your reception, hire this band!!!!!
-- Jean T, Carthage, NC, 9/29/2006
- We were so thrilled with Sugar's performance at our wedding reception! Even some of our guests have commented that they were blown away with their performance. They were high-energy all the way through & were very successful getting our guests out on the dance floor & keeping them there. Bryan was extremely helpful & conscientious with the planning process during the months before. Our bridal party had the opportunity to go with us to see Sugar perform at WildWings a couple of nights before our wedding, & after that night, we were all very stoked to see them perform at our wedding. Needless to say, they exceeded our expectations!With many thanks, Troy & Lea McDowell -- Lea G, Charleston, SC, 10/13/2007
- Sugar played at our office holiday party. They were awesome! All of their songs sounded like the original artist. The problem was that most of our employees did not take advantage of such a great band to dance, but Sugar tried very hard to get people out on the dance floor. Eventually we did get some and they had a blast. Thanks again for a very successful event!! -- Alison H, Raleigh, NC, 12/16/2006
- Sugar the Band rocked the wedding. we got numerous compliments about their performance. In addition to their musical talent (which got just about EVERYONE at our daytime wedding dancing), they were fun, professional and interactive (e.g. had the best man sing with them). I would highly recommend Sugar to anyone. -- Christian M, Chapel Hill, NC, 10/21/2006
- Sugar the Band was absolutely fantastic! They kept my reception moving and played just the right songs to make sure everyone had something to dance to. Cat is a great singer and Paul..... well let's just say he can make a guitar talk! -- Kassandra H, Greensboro, NC, 9/20/2008
