WeddingJustin Trawick and the Common Good were fantastic. The dance floor was filled the entire night. Hire them and you won't be disappointed. They are easy going yet responsible, flexible and best of all fun. All our guests raved about the band.

GroomI’ll be quick because I’m on the run. Their band was amazing. Everyone was elated with their music. The great thing about their band is that young or old, everyone loves the music. We didn’t stop dancing from the first song to the last. Just great. Johnny S.

WeddingWhat a great band!!! They were perfect. Their sense of humor and poise made a stellar wedding even better. They are great instrumentalists and the fiddle, guitar, mandolin and upright bass had such pure, true depth...EVERYBODY loved them. We are so happy we selected them.

WeddingJustin and The Common Good were exactly what we were looking for. They did an amazing job creating the "concert" vibe we were looking for during the cocktail hour. Additionally Justin and the guys were perfect in introducing us as a new couple and playing our requests for first dance and parent's dance. The first dance was a new song for them and they were on point. Justin Trawick & The Common Good were a perfect addition to our special day.

BrideMy husband and I used EastCoast Entertainment to find the PERFECT band for our wedding: Justin Trawick. Eric and I wanted a very laid back, fun, engaging band that played not your typical wedding music but music that went along with our outdoor venue. Our wedding was hosted at River Farm in Alexandria, VA (a historical house situated between beautiful gardens and the Potomac River) but we had a pig roast, games, and lots of drinking and dancing. We wanted a band that went along with this feel. Justin and his band delivered above and beyond our expectations. Just as we wanted, they played a lot of original songs but mixed in remixes of awesome and setting appropriate cover songs that appealed to a wide variety of people and got everyone moving- (think Mumford and Sons and Snoop Dog). The guests demanded an encore when the band finished. Everyone during and after the wedding asked us about the band and our band is listed as the one of the top reasons that our wedding was the best that they\'ve ever attended. |
50th Birthday CelebrationChris and his band recently played at a big birthday bash given for me, and they were absolutely AWESOME!! Super talented, entertaining, and just all around great guys to work with. My friends are still talking about them! They have a great playlist--very diverse--and had the crowd on their feet practically the entire time. Chris even added some of my favorite songs and artists as well. We are already talking about throwing another party, just so we could have them play. Thanks to them, it was the best birthday EVER! |
