Feedback

  • Could not have asked for a better experience. Common Clay Band was easy to work and very responsive prior to our wedding reception, were able to accommodate all special requests, and played a variety of music that entertained all our guests. We received numerous comments from our guests after the event, complimenting the performance of the Common Clay Band. They truly made our event a night to remember. I would highly recommend this band for wedding receptions and any other events. -- Neil S, Boone, NC, 6/25/2011
  • The music was awesome! Brandon was quick to respond to correspondence before the event. My only complaints are that there were a number of songs on their songlist that the night of the event members of the band stated they could not play (didn't remember, etc.) Also the band took a break about 20 min before the reception ended, which seemed ill timed. Although they did end up playing for about 15 min past the scheduled end time. Overall we were very satisfied and I would highly recommend this band. Everyone at our reception was dancing and having a great time. -- Renee L, Charleston, SC, 7/1/2011
  • I hired The Common Clay Band from out of town and with no references, but they totally met our needs and expectations for a fun, casual, outdoor graduation party with all generations attending. They totally rocked, and are excellent musicians! I highly recommend them! Kathryn from NY -- Kathryn C, Elon, NC, 5/20/2011
  • Common Clay played our wedding reception and were great. Before the wedding they were responsive to all questions in a timely manner. The playlist they selected was perfect. Our guests were up and dancing as soon as the band started playing and did not stop dancing. The band checked with us several times to make sure they were meeting our expectations. They exceeded our expectations. Guests told us throughout the night how great the band was and days later were still talking about the band. The band was one of the best parts of the wedding. I would highly recommend Common Clay for any event. -- Janice B, Raleigh, NC, 10/1/2011
  • This band is fabulous. We could not have imagined a better time!! Thank you so much! -- Meghan G, Conway, SC, 10/15/2011
  • Awesome. Even my mom, who doesn't dance, was dancing. Cannot say enough about this band. You would be foolish to pass up on these guys. -- Matthew M, Charlotte, NC, 11/5/2011
