The band was INCREDIBLE! The lead singer was one of those inspiring, funny, happy guys that the kids just love. In fact, every member was a lot of fun. I don't think we've ever had so much positive feedback regarding a band as we did that night.

NSP was absolutely great. Their song selection was outstanding and they were very collaborative with us in making the set list. They are a great dance band and had guests of all ages dancing past the 10pm closing time we had planned on---and that was lots of fun. They are friendly and enthusiastic and great singers and players. I strongly recommend them for wedding receptions or any kind of party. Their style is wide ranging everything from slow soul ballads to rock funk and rap. We were very happy with them. Thanks for arranging for them to play.

Lisa and I had seen NSP a year ago at one of our friend's weddings, and we thought they were great. We immediately thought of them when we were planning our wedding earlier this year, and booked them for our August 25th wedding in Chapel Hill. Our wedding was very formal, and very elegant, with only about 300 of our closest friends and relatives (Hah!). We were sure that most of our close friends would really enjoy the band, but were a little worried (before hand) that some of our older relatives might find the music somewhat young for their tastes. I can't tell you how wrong we were!!!! Everyone at the wedding loved the band, everyone asked us where we found them, and EVERYONE assured us that NSP was one of the best bands they had heard at a wedding. We feel so fortunate to have had them play at our wedding, I just hope they won't mind playing some of our parties in the future (in between selling out concerts)
They did an excellent job mixing classic wedding songs earlier in the evening with more contemporary dance mixes as the night went on.
They also did an excellent job of carrying along the reception events (cake cutting, boquet toss, etc) and provided lively, fun music for everything.
I would reccommend this band to anyone booking an event where people may want to "crank it up" as the night progresses.
If there is anything we can do to help you guys out, or the band, please let us know, you have our full support.

Wedding Reception
The band was a hit and we had a blast at the wedding. They really made the reception and numerous people asked me who they were so that they could use them for their upcoming events.
