Christmas Party•Reviewed on December 9, 2023•From Baton Rouge, LA

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on November 20, 2012•From Long Island, NY

Ted Hefko and his band were absolutely amazing. Everyone kept asking where did you find them. They preformed an obscure French song for our first dance. More than one person is considering them for their wedding! Thank you Ted so much!

Review by Bennett J.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 9, 2012•From Little Compton, RI

Without a doubt, one of the best parts of our wedding reception last August was having Ted and his band come up to from Brooklyn. We stumbled upon his listing here and couldn't have been more pleased with the timeliness, accommodation, and professionalism he and his crew showed throughout the event. The band played longer than our agreed upon time, which was great! When asked why, the answer was; "When we're playing to people who appreciate the music, we get into it too!". It is obvious Ted loves his genre and the craft of making music. Were we to do it again, we wouldn't change a thing!
