"Southside Station was a total hit! Our group raved all night about how amazing the band was. We even had to move tables and chairs because everyone wanted to dance. What a wonderful time we had! Thank you so much for everything and I am happy to recommend them. Hopefully, we will have the opportunity to use them again in the future. "

I cannot tell you how much your talent made the night so magical! Already got our tickets for the Ballantyne Amp! Mack and Rose and all of our friends and family have gone on and on. All ages. About how great you all are. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your time and talent.

The band was terrific—they set just the right tone for the theme of the evening and were very patient with a couple of guests who wanted to lend their musical stamp to their best friend’s celebration. We had a terrific night and many attendees wanted to know more about them.

Southside Station played at our fundraiser event, and they were fabulous. All of our guests commented on how brilliant they were. The day after the event, some of our guests were already inquiring on how they can book them in the future. We literally danced all night; they packed the dance floor full and were just brilliant. Their song selections were just what we wanted. I would definitely recommend them for any occasion. All correspondence was professional and quick, and they were super flexible.

"We loved Southside Station. What we heard from people was the great variety of types of music they played and they played it all well. We loved all the different instruments they played. Jeff was very easy to work with. They were very good about letting Joseph play the trumpet. He got better as the weekend went on. They also worked well in the Waters Building, not too loud, we could still talk. Thank you for all your help."

Jeff and the entire band were a pleasure to work with! They were very accommodating and flexible as our timeline had to continually change due to a groom on crutches. They went above and beyond to ensure that the couple were happy even accommodating a last-minute song request in lieu of the first dance song. Each band member was very pleasant to be around and very helpful when asked to tidy up the stage and adjust the lighting per the planner's request for dinner service. Jeff was a great emcee and very easy to communicate with. He understood what our expectations were and provided a great evening of entertainment the entire night. Thank you to the entire band for a great event!

Your band is the ultimate in talent and sound and we could not have been happier with the trio and the reception performance! Don’t be surprised if your future bookings explode as we had rave reviews from over 50 guests. Tell all of your band mates that they are consummate pros!!

"Phenomenal—quite simply phenomenal!! The band blew us away—what an amazing group of musicians…their sound was everything we could have hoped for and so much more! Their energy level was perfect all night—the dance floor was full from start to finish—one song led to the next and no one stopped dancing…how does it get better than that?!? The song they learned for Hannah and Konner sounded wonderful—what a fantastic performance. The trio for the ceremony was amazing—ideal for the occasion and venue. We honestly loved everything about the music on Saturday—as did our guests! So many people mentioned the music to us throughout the night—singing their praises on repeat. Jeff was fantastic to communicate with—responsive, positive, flexible….he worked with whatever we threw his way in the most positive manner. The weather changed things up a bit on wedding day and they seamless moved from outside to in—they moved venues from ceremony to reception---they went from a trio to a full band….with smiles on their faces and never losing the amazing sound and vibe. Alex and I couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to play the day of Hannah and Konner’s wedding!!! I really need to check my thesaurus for other words to use in place of phenomenal—but for now, just know phenomenal works! Enjoyed working with you and ECE throughout the process—so appreciate all you did to help match up with truly the perfect band for a fantastic celebration!"

This band was amazing! They learned all of our first dance songs and provided an all night party atmosphere that kept the dance floor busy all night. The medley of songs going back to back made it feel like the party never stopped. Everyone loved the song selection and the energy that the band provided the room. Highly recommend for any event you would have. Thanks for the great memories.

Southside Station played at our daughter's wedding last Saturday at the Farm at Old Edwards Inn in Highlands. I just wanted to share that they were great! They hit just the right chord for the crowd with a great playlist and a lot of energy. We have had lots of positive comments on their performance. Thanks for your assistance booking them.

Nothing but rave reviews about the band!! Oftentimes, I’m told people enjoyed the band, but not often do people make a point to track me down to ask the name of the band & where they’re located. We hope this event is an annual event going forward & if so, Southside Station is definitely our first choice. Great recommendation – thank you!

I love this Band!! I saw them play about 6 months before my wedding, I already had a DJ booked but knew I needed them to be apart of my special day. I booked them right away and couldn't be happier with my decision. They are incredible. They play an array of music from all genres. They kept the party going and all my guest loved them as well. The band is also very kind, responsive and easy to work with! Thanks for making our wedding perfect Southside Station!

- Ally S.

(Jan 09, 2021)

The band was AMAZING. They played violin during my wedding ceremony, and a 5-piece band during my wedding reception. I can't tell you how easy they made things on me! They were so kind, and they were personal and easy to communicate with. They were so catering to me, and I just appreciated how much they seemed to care that I was happy! (I originally had a different band scheduled for my wedding, and they did not treat me this way, and I'm glad the other band fell through!!) And Southside Station sounded amazing when playing! They are so skilled!!!! They made my wedding so much better. Every guest told me how amazing the band was. I had such a pleasure working with them. I would recommend this band to everyone!!!

In a nutshell, you and the band were tremendous. Truly, I can not tell you how many guests told us you were the BEST wedding band they had ever heard, and this wedding was the most fun one they had ever attended. And we had guests from CA, MA, WA, CO, and in between. You were so flexible about learning new songs for us, changing the date from April to August, and making Eric’s surprise song with y’all just unforgettable. And the very best of surprises for the bride and groom! We really can not thank you enough. Please share with the rest of the band too.

Wonderful feedback shared from the client as well as Banquet team at Diana - the group LOVED their performance. From an Event Manager standpoint, Southside Station was a dream to work with - Ellie always makes the initial process so seamless - Jeff was easy on-site. Members were on time and did not require much attention once at the venue. I would DEFINITELY recommend them again! Thanks so much!

Southside Station is an amzingly talented band. They played at my daughter's wedding and everyone raved about how great the band was. From day one when we first talked to Jeff Jones about our plans, he has been nothing but professional and bent over backwards to accommodate all of our request. The whole experience from beginning to end could not have been any better. Thank you Southside Station for playing a huge part in our special day!

- John M.

We were blown away by you guys and had MANY people come up to us at our wedding to compliment the band, and we are still getting texts! David has seen the Allman Brothers many times and says your Whipping Post was one of the best he’s ever heard - it’s not an easy song to perform! Thank you so much for being willing to accommodate my bridesmaid Jennifer and my dad, and even David for the Napoleon Dynamite dance as a last minute request! You’ve been so wonderful to work with and I only wish we could do it all over again!! Thanks so much for everything!

This band was absolutely phenomenal. Sooooo talented! They made the wedding a huge success. In fact everyone was bragging that this was probably the most fun wedding they had ever been too. The talent was incredible. Playing everything! Johnny Cash, Charlie Daniels, Footloose, you name it, they played it, even playing requested rare songs! They are so incredibly talented and fun! Worth every nickel that you pay for them and you can be assured that your event will be a huge success. Would love to hire them again for another event. Great personalities too! Playing hard and long with huge smiles and making everyone dance, sing and have a fun filled evening!

Dear Jeff & Southside Band Members, Y'all absolutely rock!!!!! We are so incredibly happy we discovered such an incredibly mind-blowingly talented group of musicians and were able to have you all play at our wedding in Asheville :) By far the best decision we made! We have spent every day since October 13th talking about how much fun you all made the entire evening for everyone. So many guests told us they felt like they were at a private concert (and so much of what you covered was better than the originals!). You all are not only crazy talented, but salt of the earth people who made the entire night so much fun for everyone there! Thank you so so so much! Especially for learning our first dance song and the Michael Scarn! That was so awesome! We plan to continue following you all and hope to get to hear you play again in the near future! Many thanks!!!

This band made my wedding unforgettable. They did an amazing job reading the crowd and had literally everyone up and dancing on the dance floor. Working and coordinating songs that fit our audience was easy and flawless. I would highly recommend them for future events!

I also wanted to say you guys were not only great to work with and flexible all throughout the process but most importantly, you delivered exceptional quality music and flexibility on-site as well. I thoroughly enjoyed working with you all and can’t wait until the next opportunity. Thanks for bending over backwards to accommodate our corporate client’s ever changing show flow. You made what could have been substantial timing challenges into non-issues. The audience feedback I have received since is nothing short of fantastic. You truly hit all demographics ranging from the obvious male & female but from 20 year old’s all the way to guests in their 60s. Everybody loved you. Thanks again for the great work and let me know if you ever need a reference.
