We used Bob as a pianist during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. We requested a few specific Queen songs for our ceremony and Bob had no issue learning the music. We had our ceremony outside and he had no problem working with our DJs and setting up an eletronic keyboard. For the cocktail hour we requested some Jazz music, and his music was delightful.
Overall, Bob was very easy to work with, flexible, and accomodating to our requests. Would absolutely recommend him to anyone for their wedding!

My family was incredibly happy to use Murray Hill Talent for our parent's 50th wedding anniversary party. We could not ask for a better experience. The contract process with Scott was clear and efficient. The band, Redline, was outstanding, with compliments all night long from party guest of how wonderful and fun they were! The dance floor was packed. Thank you, Ken, the band's leader, and Redline for making this event one of our most successful and special family celebrations!

Murray Hill Talent was easy to work with. My Wife and I found the DJ video interviews to be unique and made selecting someone to work with a great and easy experience. I will admit there is so much to art of DJ'ing that I can't begin to speak to it. What I can say is Murray Hill Talent and our DJ Dakeya Christmas took all of the questions out of the process from scheduling to day of, to dance floor details. The amount of knowledge and experience was truly impressive as was the professionalism. Everything went perfectly as planned and we trusted Dakeya to use his judgement on requests and found

Murray Hill was great to work with for wedding band arrangement. Scott was very helpful during the contracting process - he was especially responsive to our concerns regarding the pandemic. The band, Closing Time, was beyond excellent - band leader also was very helpful throughout the process. He arranged a perfect song list, and everyone at the wedding raved about music. They made our wedding beautiful. Definitely recommend Murray Hill for wedding talent hiring, and definitely recommend Closing Time if live bands are of interest.

Murray Hill Talent was a great organization to work with. Our DJ was Zeke Stern and he was great throughout the entire process. He was very good at taking instructions as well as offering helpful suggestions to make our wedding perfect. Zeke knew exactly what songs to play to keep the party going and get everyone on the dance floor.

We recently used Murray Hill Talent for our wedding and had a fantastic experience. We worked with Ken & his band Redline. Ken was great to deal with and very accommodating to our thousands of requests. Oh and the band was amazing as well! We 100% will recommend to family and friends for future events.

Scott was amazing!!! If you're a music lover, and you have specific genres or artists you want to be played, he really personalizes the set to your liking. He knew how to keep the guests engaged and on the dance floor. I highly recommend Scott for your upcoming wedding, no matter what type of vibe or set you're looking for.

We could not have been happier with Murray Hill Talent and Unity! Cory and Scott were wonderful, seamlessly and graciously rescheduling our wedding due to COVID, and working with us every step of the way. They were so helpful and organized by email leading up to the event, and Unity was absolutely phenomenal!! We got SO many compliments on the band, and the only feedback was that everyone wished they could've played for 3 more hours, as we were all having so much fun. I would recommend Murray Hill Talent, and Unity to ANYONE. One of the best decisions we made for our wedding!

Brian was fantastic and we are so happy he was a part of our day! He was so easy to communicate with, made us feel comfortable, and had great recommendations throughout our planning process. We got so many compliments specifically regarding our DJ and he definitely kept the party going all night. He was able to read the room and make sure everyone was having a great time. He was able to seamlessly integrate Bollywood hits as well - we had a blast! So glad we stumbled upon Murray Hill and their teams!

Flipside was incredible!! We could not have been happier to have had them as our band. They brought so much energy and were unbelievable performers. All of our guests were dancing all night long (no joke, no one sat down, not even my 86 year old grandmother). We had so many complements after our wedding about this band. If we could replay this night on repeat we totally would. Highly, highly recommend!

We’d really like to thank Murray Hill Talent for working with us. We had to reschedule and relocate our wedding multiple times and they were more than accommodating to make sure our special day included some musical talent. To Emilia, you absolutely blew everyone away with your skills playing the harp. My wife and I have received so many compliments on your performance. To Zeke, thank you so much for being the point man and master music generator on our special day. You did an awesome job at laying down the beats with a wide variety of music to keep everyone out of their seats and on the dance

After a lengthy band search for our July 2019 wedding we chose Flipside and Murry Hill Talent. The communication leading up to our event was the perfect amount and Corin the bands leader quickly answered all of our questions. Their performance at the wedding was so organized and seamless. They drew rave reviews from each of our guests. Our caterer asked where we found Flipside and said they were the best wedding band she's ever seen perform. We couldn't be happier with our decision. We highly recommend Flipside to anyone looking for a wedding band.

We worked with Scott Arrington for our wedding day, and it couldn't have gone more smoothly! From our first call, we could tell he was on the same page with us with regard to the tone of our wedding and the kind of music we were looking for. Because I can't help myself and organize everything to death, we provided him with a few playlists: one for the songs with purposes like what I'd be walking down the aisle to, entrance music, cake cutting song, etc., one with "must plays" for the reception, and another with music requested by our guests. We told him to use his best

My wife and I hired Scott Arrington as the DJ for our post-nuptial party and we couldn't be happier. He was absolutely incredible! The music was perfect, he was friendly, and everyone had a great time. He was even willing to add on an extra hour on short notice because everyone was having so much fun.
If I ever need a DJ again, I will 100% be contacting Scott because he was amazing. Cannot recommend enough!

Wow! Scott Arrington was amazing! We're still getting complements that it was the best wedding ppl have ever been to and our DJ was so on point, the dance floor was full at all times and how great it was that he had multiple generations on the floor the whole night. I couldn't have been happier with him. Also, his communication beforehand was unreal. He sent me the dj planner, was patient with my changes, helped me find versions of songs I liked and he really set me at ease days before when we spoke on the phone. He also helped my fiancé with finding equipment so he could perform a song

The incredibly talented Dave Sardella created magic on the dance floor for our son's wedding. Simply fantastic! Dave wove together traditional and modern Lebanese music with American rock/country/pop with skill, energy and expertise. Guests from age 3 - 83 boogied all night long.
Dave also did a superb job with the ceremony and cocktail hour music. Great music, great DJ - unforgettable night.

We were SO happy with our choice to work with Redline for our wedding in July. Ken was super helpful and organized leading up to the big day. He made it very easy to plan all of the little details that we were originally worried about. He even learned a few acoustic songs for our ceremony. Everything went flawlessly, the whole band was fantastic and kept the dance party going all night! We would highly recommend Redline to anyone who wants to make their wedding extremely memorable and fun. Thank you, Redline!

Flipside played our wedding in August 2018, and they were definitely the highlight of our event! We knew they were going to be great after having a chance to meet with Corin before the wedding - who was fun, easy to work with, and happens to be an extremely knowledgable musician. We had a hard time picking a band when we were planning or wedding, and we are so pleased that we ended up with Flipside. They also happen to be very accommodating, and handled some last minute changes on our end without any problems. (As a side note, we also used their uplighting, which I would recommend). Our guests

Murray Hill was wonderful to work with during our planning process. They were responsive and professional and answered all questions that my husband and I threw their way. We had Tom Pendergast, on the acoustic guitar, play during our ceremony and cocktail hour. He was amazing! Tom listened to all of our ideas and was able to play all of the songs that we wanted. DJ Marc Anthony was a pleasure to work with as well. We described our music preferences and specifically stated that we did not want the "usual wedding songs" played and he did a great job picking out music that guests of all

We had Redline play at our wedding this summer and it couldn't have been better! The entire band was amazing, but working with Ken was definitely a highlight - he worked with us to put together beautiful ceremony and cocktail music, he went out of his way to help us pick songs, and gave us tons of options and modifications for slowing songs down, changing it to fit the dance - whatever! He also went out of his way to work with my sister, the Best Woman (thanks for that title, Ken!) and helped her with a song and dance that she and friends did during the speech!

We booked DJ Marc Anthony (aka Marc Mendes) through Murray Hill and he was an integral part of what made our wedding so much fun. He was genuine, energetic, and kept the hits playing all night long so our guests were glued to the dance floor. He fit right in with the vibe of our guests and was one of the most complemented parts of our wedding.
He was a delight to work with. From our initial Skype call, we knew he'd be awesome, and he proved us right along the way and definitely delivered the day of the wedding. He totally got a sense of our taste in music (Whitney, Britney, Michael Jackson

My husband and I got married Friday November 11th, 2016 at Lakeview Pavilion in Foxboro, MA. Being a Norwich Alum, 2-tour Army Veteran and Police Officer, my husband had been suggesting we include the National Anthem somewhere in our Veteran's Day union. "It's only appropriate," he would say, referring to the several Active Duty & Retired Service Members and Veterans, two of which were in our Wedding Party. I pretended to brush him off.
Well, husband, I heard you loud and clear.
I reached out to Murray Hill Talent February 2016 to see if, by chance, Rene Rancourt was available

I couldn't say enough how wonderful our DJ Scott was. He made our Sunday daytime wedding feel like Saturday night. He is awesome at reading the crowd and made sure to keep everyone moving while playing the kind of music we requested. We asked him to avoid all the typical wedding songs so the fact that he was able to keep the dance floor packed with people of all ages despite not relying on the classics was nothing short of amazing. In addition, it was a double wedding and he was able to handle this non traditional set up with ease.

I must first confess to being a bit of a scatter brain when it comes to working with vendors. I know full well I was late in getting in touch with our DJ, Brendan. He, however, gave no indication of his being inconvenienced whatsoever. He was a consummate professional and impressed at every opportunity. Brendan was indispensably helpful in maintaining the flow of the evening's events, directing attendees for dinner, pictures, cake cutting, etc. The dancefloor was full all night long, it was a really great addition to what amounted to the best day of my life.
Thanks Brendan and thank you
