Review Centre: Motown Bands

"It is said that the largest portion of a bride’s budget should be directed towards entertainment. I am a living witness that investing in your entertainment is crucial. Even more so, the RIGHT type of entertainment. Andrew Thielen Big Band band was the right choice for my Thanksgiving eve wedding. Let’s be honest, in this day and age it’s a challenge to find professional entertainment that soothes the soul and inspires. Andrew Thielen Big Band did that and then some. Hear me when I tell you, this band ROCKED the house. They added the air of class and sophistication that I so desired. Not only were they amazing to engage, the quality of music was second to none. Their sound is PHENOMENAL. I almost shied away from hiring them because I only had 75 invited guests. I was concerned that their larger than life sound would overtake us. My Gosh was I was wrong. Their larger than life sound brought the funk, soul, jazz and pizazz that kept my guests on the dance floor until the very end. We laughed, we cried and bonded with the band in a way that brought us together as family. Every time that I reflect on them playing, You’re the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me (Gladys Knight) I tear up. Andrew went out of his way to make our wedding reception a night to remember. Thank you! ♥️??? The soloist we’re incredible! And y’all, let’s just say, COME THROUGH HORNS! Readers, if you’re harboring ANY doubt, release it and hire this band. It is my desire and promise to bring them in for all of my future events. Many blessings to the Andrew Thielen Big Band! "

"Danny T. West Palm Beach Florida, Feb 3 2024 8:54 AM Just wanted to thank you Mr. Gibson for the wonderful music that God allowed us to hear through you. I’m not even old enough to qualify as a real fan as I’m only 26. However your music touched my father who is a full time pastor at Destiny International Ministries. Loved your music always since I was a young boy and it has influenced me as a music producer. Thank you and God bless."

"The Tigers DJ and Pam met our every requirement and more! Right from the get go Pam ensured that every aspect of our event was covered. The team went that extra mile that our event went without a hitch. The band and DJ read the crowd perfectly and honestly bought such a great atmosphere to the event. We have since used them for 5 other Events and will be using them again this year! They are all incredibly talented. "

"Raphael and the band played at the aperitivo of our wedding and created a magical atmosphere for all of our guests during sunset. We loved it! Also all the communication with Raphael was very easy, professional and he is super responsive. He even offered to play at the ceremony as a pianist. We will definitely recommend! "

"Ikembe recently played for our party of around 150 guest. They were do easy to work with, and communicated clearly and often about the entire booking process. The music they played was exactly the sample of Jazz,R&B and Blues that I requested, and they hit it out of the park with their styling and sound!!! I can't thank them enough for being the highlight of my dad's 70th birthday party. Ikembe is not some hobby or tribute band. They are gifted musicians and singers,and deliver a polished performance. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS BAND !!!!"

"Ant was absolutely fantastic. Aside from being a very talented singer and musician; he is incredibly, polite, versatile and overall lovely. He had fantastic communication, we spoke on video before the wedding, emailed and whatsapp’d, he’s very responsive. We discussed song choices and he was very receptive to the specific songs we wanted, including learning to play some new ones. Ant took the initiative on our wedding day, setting himself up and started, before we arrived, for our guests. He was able to be flexible when our timings changed on the day (we had an outside wedding in the UK… It rained when we were supposed to be walking down the aisle still went great, don’t worry). He ran across the field and played without his equipment for the ceremony when we had a break in the rain. We would defiantly recommend him and 100% hire him again for any other musician needs we may have!"

"Mary was such a pleasure to work with!! She always made herself available to discuss details, and she met us at our venue a few months prior to the wedding to coordinate locations and day of scheduling. She also helped us figure out the Italian SAIE license. The band has such a wide range of musical options so we ended up booking the pianist for our ceremony, jazz trio for our apertivo, and band for the late night dancing. Our guests raved about the band and we had the best time celebrating with them!!"

"I booked Ant to surprise my boyfriend with a marriage proposal on 7th Feb 2021. He was so professional, friendly and down to earth. Great communication & flexibility before the event. It went absolutely perfectly, how I dreamed and he even learned a new song for us. His voice was beautiful and bless his fingers turning purple in the icy cold wind. I will definitely be in touch with Ant when lockdowns & viruses are done with to play at our wedding. Much love Ant, can’t thank you enough! x"
