Mother of the BrideHi Stacy I just wanted to touch base and let you know how thrilled we were with Klaxton Brown this past Saturday. They kept the energy up the entire evening and we have had a multitude of compliments! I’m not sure the bride left the dance floor except during breaks. Please convey to Bo and the rest of the band that they truly helped make our reception perfect! Beth M.

BrideKlaxton Brown was an absolute hit at our wedding! Â Suffice to say that at the end of the night we had guests chanting "ten more songs! ten more songs!" and they have been raving ever since about how fantastic the band was. Â We wanted our wedding to be a fun, energetic dance party, and it was just that and more. Â We have had countless guests tell us that it was the most fun they've ever had at a wedding - I think that says it all! Bo was really very nice and accommodating. Â I appreciated him taking the time to talk to me before the wedding to make sure that we were on the same page. Â All of my special requests were taken care of and I of course very much appreciated that as well. Â I would definitely highly recommend Klaxton Brown to friends in the future. Â And I truly hope that they enjoyed playing at our reception. :) Thanks again for all of your help as well. Kelley Z.

Birthday PartyKlaxton Brown was great in every way. Bo and Al were there to set up early and I enjoyed talking to them as we all got ready. They all really played beautifully and obviously enjoyed it and that comes through. All her Richmond friends and the many UVa kids and Shannon and I stayed on the dance floor and they played a great Happy Birthday version for Ramsey. Thanks for your help. Hank C.

PartySorry its taken me a while to get to you! Klaxton Brown was the best band we've had yet!! They were extremely courteous and professional. I worked mostly with Robert and he could not have been nicer and more accommodating. The venue wouldn't let them set up in the room until an hour and a half before the party began, and they didn't complain at all. They played music everyone enjoyed....in fact, they didn't play a song that cleared the dance floor once. Everyone had a great time dancing to their music. I would highly recommend them to anyone. Carter B.

Community EventKlaxton Brown was better than advertised, if that is possible... They were incredible to work with from the beginning to the end. They take pride in not only their music, but the way they treat "the customer". Their music may be "timeless" and you may have heard it 100 times before from a 100 different bands, but until you see and hear them then you really don't know what "Klaxton Brown" is about! They were professionals in every way and I hope to have them back again in the near future. Sammy M.

Fraternity Party - Pig RoastKlaxton Brown was by far the best band we have had since my time in Sigma Alpha Epsilon. Their entertainment pushed our annual Pig Roast to the best it has ever been. Many of our alumni commented on the excellent band and even our campus safety officers wanted to purchase a CD. I know that the brothers and I would enjoy having them back in the future. The band's energy really kept the party alive. The set list was extensive and varied with all of our favorite songs. From all the brothers here at Sigma Alpha Epsilon, thank you for bringing your entertainment to us. And once again, we can't wait till next year so we can hopefully book Klaxton Brown again. Arba W.

Fraternity EventGood to hear from you. Last weekend went really well-thanks again for all your help. Klaxton Brown blew all of us away. I heard from more than a few people they were the best party band they had ever heard. They were the best band I personally have seen while in Chi Psi, and they really made the event. You knocked it out of the park with that one! Jon

Couldn’t have been better! Klaxton Brown did a tremendous job working with us ahead of our wedding then were an absolute blast during the reception. The dance floor was packed start-to-finish and they played songs all of our attendees loved. We so appreciate them learning an extra song for us and for making the night truly special to the last dance. Thanks so much to Bo and the rest of the band!

Klaxton Brown was AMAZING! I cc’d you on my email to Bo because I wanted you to know just how happy we were afterwards with the music at our reception. Bo and the rest of the band were so professional, so nice, and just so much fun! We got so many compliments from our family and friends on the band. Ryan and I did not want the party to end. We loved every song that they played and they got people dancing who never ever dance. We wish that we could do it all over again! I also very much appreciated that Bo took the time to talk to me over the phone before our wedding to talk about details and playlists. We had made a timeline for the reception and Bo said that whatever I needed they would follow - so great!
Thank you to you and Klaxton Brown for making our day unforgettable! I will be recommending y’all to anyone who needs a band for their event.

Bride & GroomWe cannot thank you and Klaxton Brown enough for making our wedding reception an epic party. We are still receiving texts and calls about how awesome the band was - they really brought down the house! There weren't any issues with switching between band and iPod for specific songs and Bo did an incredible job emceeing.
Klaxton Brown really made our wedding reception complete. We had high expectations from their reviews and reputation, and they certainly delivered! We have also enjoyed working with you and appreciate your professionalism and support from beginning to end. We have all the confidence in ECE and appreciated you checking in periodically throughout the year.
Thank you again for helping make our wedding the best day of our lives. We will absolutely refer you / Klaxton Brown to any of our contacts in the future should they need entertainment.

WeddingWe had the best time celebrating our wedding with Klaxton Brown. They were such great musicians and so professional. It was exactly the type of band we wanted for our wedding. Two of our guests are getting married in Montana next summer and are sad that Klaxton Brown can't travel that far for a wedding! Everyone had so much fun.

WeddingThe wedding was epic! The weather was perfect, not an empty seat and the Band was so fantastic!!!! I honestly have never been in a wedding where so many people commented on the band. It was so much fun they were so great and we will definitely use them again although I don't have another daughter. I am being very candid when I tell you it's the best band experience my husband and I have ever had. All ages were participating it was fantastic. It was a pleasure to get to know you and I will tell you that anyone asks about an Entertainment coordination you will be at the top of our list. Thank you for all your help.

Company PartyThey were really GREAT! Our crowd loved them and didn’t want them to stop. We had to signal them to stop because we had to pack up the store. I’m sure they’ve never played a party at a retail store. Hahaha. We had a minor snafu in that their vans did not fit into our parking deck. It meant they had a long distance for loading in and out. I would love to automatically rebook them for next year but we don’t even know the date yet. I hope they enjoyed playing here. We told them on Saturday but please reiterate how much we loved the music. Thanks for making it such a smooth booking and an awesome event. Have a lovely holiday season. Mary Katherine

BrideKlaxton Brown's performance at our wedding was EXCELLENT. Â I couldn't believe how great they sounded! Â I loved when they played "I Will Always Love You" for the groom and me, and I had some of the songs they performed stuck in my head for days afterward. Â We received compliments from numerous people - everyone from my middle-aged relatives to my friends who are in their 20s. Â My first day back at work after the honeymoon, one of my coworkers who attended the wedding walked into my office and the first thing he said was, "So, who was that band you had at your wedding? Â They were the real deal!" Â I just can't express how much we appreciated Klaxton Brown's amazing performance!!! Elizabeth

Hello Jack. On behalf of NAMME, Inc, I gladly report that Klaxton Brown "set if off!" We received numerous platitudes and positive comments from members. The selections and performance were perfect for our occasion. Finally, I want to point out the level of professionalism the band exhibited. We were very late leaving an evening session. I dropped in to let the band know we were coming down soon. To my surprise/delight the band was already playing selections as though the room were filled. I hope that Klaxton Brown receives future business based on the impression left with our members. I will surely keep them high on my list. All the best. |
