"WOW" is the best descriptor for Josh and Phase5 band! My husband and I added the guitarist for cocktail hour music (fantastic!), and added the saxophone as well. Just from the videos alone, my husband and I were so excited that we were able to book, but hearing them live is a whole new experience - they were the best live band I've heard!! I had so many moments where I didn't even realize it was the band, just from how fantastic and high quality their performance was. We heard the same compliments from many of our guests - everyone loved them, and most importantly, everyone

Phase5 is the best band ever!
Best night of our lives! We never wanted the band to stop playing... They were AMAZING! Every single one of the guests at our wedding were on the dance floor. Josh and Robyn's voices are amazing! Josh sang my first dance song and loved it even more than the original! So many compliments from the guests about the band. During the planning process Josh was so organized, friendly and accommodating. Wish we could do it all over again so we could have such a fun night with Josh Walther and the Phase5 Band... Thank you!

As a wedding planner, working with amazing vendors is the key to a successful event. Phase 5 is THE go-to band for my events. Every time a client hires Phase 5 I know exactly what to expect... an exceptional band and a packed dance floor! Their repertoire is impressive and appeals to both young and old. They cover everything from the classics to today’s hits. In addition to their stellar sound, Josh Walther is an excellent emcee (something that is hard to find). I highly recommend Phase 5 for any event!

I’m an event planner who has worked with The Phase 5 Band on multiple weddings, galas and nonprofit events. Every time I have worked with them, their mix of talent and professionalism has set them high above the rest. They can play for any audience and any style of music. Highly recommended!!!!

Josh and Phase5 Band were absolutely phenomenal! Josh was so easy to work with, great at communicating and most importantly-put together such a wonderful "show" for our wedding. They had everyone on the dance floor all night-played all of our favorite songs and even went along with my dad to cue an intro song during his FOB speech. Hiring this band is one of the best decisions you can make for your wedding!

Hiring Phase 5 was the best decision we made! Josh and his crew are all such a pleasure to work with. They ensured that I selected the best music for my event and provided wonderful recommendations when I was on the fence or unsure. We, unfortunately, encountered rain on the day of and they quickly broke down and set back up within moments! No complaints, no unhappy faces - they truly were there to make our day special!
If you’re looking for a band who will keep the dance floor rockin, look no more!

I’ve hired Josh and his band nearly a dozen times over the past couple of years. He is always professional, talented and goes above and beyond our expectations. The whole team is friendly, professional and invested in the work they do. I can’t wait to hire them again!

Josh Walther was so easy to communicate with from the beginning, that there was actually no need to even meet until the afternoon of the wedding. Knowing the Phase5 band’s wonderful reputation, I had no concern about the music ~ we just had a few other small decisions to make, such as set up, ceremony music, cocktail hour music, etc.
The wedding was held at an estate and a bit challenging due to the ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner and dancing being held in different locations. There were a couple of unexpected hurdles, and even though we never discussed a resolution, Josh was flexible and forward

Someone at our wedding came up to me and said "I didn't know a wedding band could actually be good. This band defies the wedding band stereotype, like what you see in The Wedding Singer." I think that says it all. Our guests absolutely raved about Phase 5. They are true professionals and so incredibly talented. Their versatility is amazing and they have a huge list of songs they can play.

They played for our cocktail hour and then 3 hours straight (!!!) during the reception. The dance floor was packed the entire time, they read the crowd so well, and for the end of the night Josh

This band is awesome! The girl ROCKS and gave me goose bumps. I'm dying for them to come play at Blu Que Island Grill on Siesta Key and hope to do a lot of work with them in the future :D

Phase5 rocked it! I heard them at the Yelp event at Datz. They played current hits across different genres. They weren't too loud or overpowering. They were very easy on the ears. I could carry on conversations and didn't have to shout over the band. I will definitely look for them because I would love to hear more!

I hope I get invited to the next party or wedding that Phase5 is playing at! I heard them at the Yelp Datz event and they were the icing on an already great party. They covered a variety of current radio hits (think 101.5, 93.3-type stuff) with a fun spin, although I think they play more styles as the Datz event was request-driven. The band is led by a female and a male duo with a strong band. Very approachable and fun group. I'd definitely hire them for a party but I'm also hoping to see them live again somewhere. According to their website they are at Timpano's on Tuesday nights
