We got Brooklyn Sound for our wedding in May, and they were absolutely amazing! We downsized from 200 to 35 people, and we weren’t sure what the energy was going to be like with a small wedding. I shouldn’t have given it a second thought because Jonny and Brooklyn Sound did an incredible job keeping the energy high and making sure everyone had a great time. By the end, I forgot there were only 35 people under our tent. They contributed so much to making our day special, and I can’t thank them enough!
The owner of Hank Lane was also extremely flexible with the ups and downs of COVID planning

We hired Brooklyn Sound for our wedding on 5/11/19. We heard that they were good but that is an understatement! Jonny Hirsch and the rest of the band are super talented musicians who had all of our guests on the dance floor for the entire wedding! They had amazing energy and played a variety of genres. When our guests chanted “one more song” the band politely obliged and played one last song. It was a great memory to end our night. Our guests could not stop raving about the band and how amazing they sounded! Jonny met with my husband and I a few weeks before the wedding to better understand

Fantastic band lead by Russ Bennett, a fantastic guy. Amazing musicians, and vocalists. Dance floor was packed corner to corner the entire night with high voltage. Sweet Child of Mine, a great but difficult song, for example, sounded like guns ‘n roses themselves. In combo with the Florentine Gardens our daughter’s wedding was spectacular and everything we had hoped for.

DJ Josh and everyone at MTM were fantastic to work with. From our first time sitting down with Josh, we felt like we were meeting with somebody who shared our vision for how we wanted our wedding to be. All anybody at MTM ever did was help us make our dream into a reality and we are so glad we chose MTM for our wedding. DJ Josh was great and so thoughtful during our wedding - we would recommend him to anybody. He also played guitar and sang during our cocktail hour, which was great.

The Billy Stone Band is incredible!! We hired them through Hank Lane to play at our Shadowbrook wedding in July 2018 based on our wedding planner's recommendation. My now-husband wanted to go with a band, but I was hesitant, thinking that it was not worth the money over a DJ and worried that we wouldn't know what quality we would get. We ended up hiring Billy Stone for a total of 8 musicians (one more than the minimum to broaden the scope of the sound) and two cocktail hour musicians (cello and keyboard). Boy was I wrong! They were all amazing!!
First, Hank Lane was very organized, professional

We could not have asked for a better band than the Frank Simmons band for our wedding. They were absolutely amazing! Our guests were on the dance floor the entire night and were constantly commenting on how awesome the band sounded! Most of the time you forgot that it wasn't the original artists singing the songs, they were that good! Overall, they were very accommodating, organized and easy to work with. We were beyond happy with them and would recommend them to anyone who asks! Music is one of the most important pieces of the evening and they truly made the party rock!!

We worked with Frank Simmons’s band. Our entire experience in working with Hank Lane Music as a company: from our initial meeting with Spencer where he was quick to work on a solution within our budget; to the communication process as we coordinated the logistics heading into the wedding; to our initial meeting with Frank and all our back and forth communications with him; etc. was a truly wonderful experience. In particular, I want to give extra praise to Frank whose passion and energy was contagious and he truly made us feel like we were the most important couples wedding he was ever going
