I am so glad to write this review for WGB. They played the reception of our recent wedding and I…read morecannot stop thinking about how great the night was. We've had so many of our guests tell us what a great time they had out on the dance floor listening to WGB. They had people of all ages out there whole time! They played a great mix of songs and even learned a new one for our first dance. You could tell that everyone in the band really loves their craft and were happy to be there. They had excellent energy and did a great job emceeing. Anna and the band were responsive and super easy to work with leading up to the event. We booked this band even before we secured the venue - now that says something!

The band was friendly, personable and played their heart out! They were so talented I couldn't believe we had them all to ourselves. Excellent Motown music perfect for a family party with young kids all the way through great-grandparents. Everyone who came to the party wants to hire them now! Excellent, professional, accommodating. A perfect choice!

I do not recommend the musicians hired for my friend's private event this past Saturday…read more Prior to booking, I reviewed feedback from others and noticed a recurring concern regarding poor communication. Unfortunately, that was exactly the experience we encountered. After receiving payment, the musicians left the venue without any communication or explanation. The venue has a strict noise ordinance, which required additional coordination, setup adjustments, and effort in order to proceed with the performance. Despite being aware of these circumstances and after having already been paid, they chose to leave rather than communicate or work through the situation. Their lack of professionalism and communication created unnecessary stress and disappointment for my friend on what was supposed to be a special and memorable day. Clear communication, especially when unexpected challenges arise, is essential when providing services for important events. Based on this experience, I cannot recommend their services. I truly hope they listen to everyone's feedback and do better, no one deserves to be ghosted during any special event, and we do not wish to hinder people who love to work and love what they do. Please do better !! My friends and I support local businesses.

Not only did he play music, but brought serval instruments and included the guests into the experience. All the kids were on the dance floor using the shakers he brought. They had the best time! Because we had a restaurant reception we did not have a formal dance floor. I didn't expect anyone to dance. I just wanted great music. Well Goyo made it happen! I'm still in awe that everyone partied and danced for hours. He's the best!!

This review is entirely overdue, but much deserved for Zebuel, Lindsey, and the amazing and…read moreextremely talented team behind Sounds Elevated. Zebuel is not only an amazing musician and DJ, but also the curator of event excellence. He brought to life with his team a NOLA influenced second-line to keep our wedding celebrations alive post ceremony, heading into the reception with instruments and all the bells & whistles. Not only was this an epic highlight for our guests, but something my husband and I only thought could happen in our dreams! He truly listened to our wants/needs with flawless execution, but above all else, went above & beyond to ensure this was the best day/night of our lives. From lighting, a DJ/live instrument fusion, and photography from So Good Photobooth, we could not recommend this Team more for your next special event ~ whether corporate or personal! Because of this Team, we had an unforgettable and picture-perfect event filled with our favorite people and the musical experience of our lifetime. Thank you Sounds Elevated for rockin us forward into marriage & beyond!

Zeb and his team exceeded every expectation at our August 2nd, 2025 wedding in Monterey. For…read morestarters, he brings a great blend of laid-back willingness to meet any idea or request, with a sharp music acumen and event expertise. He worked with us during each step of the planning process, never pressing, to amplify our vision. A special shout out for a meaningful family/bridal party/etc. song. Playing a particular remix of a song we like. Nailing down particular subgenres during each stage of the night. Attentive to our song dislikes and "no plays". But at the same time, adding his expert feel and live touch for what the crowd was wanting. Zeb and his team built standout moments - our crowd even started a room-wide conga line (who does that anymore?). And a shout-a-long of Bohemian Rhapsody as our closer for the night. And the live sax fusion... everyone kept commenting about that being their favorite part of the night. At the same time, he simplified all of our anxieties in what can be a whale of a planning process. He got our mindset/vision immediately and was the perfect amount of helpful in steering us to the best party ever.

After our meeting, Richard selected Jayson from his lineup of DJ/MCs as the person who would be the best fit for us (since he was personally unavailable that day). Jayson has a friendly demeanor, he thoughtfully guided us through lines of questioning to determining exactly what our vision was and how he could bring it to life, and boy did he absolutely crush it. It was important for us that the DJ be a powerful guide for the evening, but also part of the background, in so far as they helped facilitate the timeline and pump the crowd, but don't make the day about them by taking too much on the mic etc. Jayson understood our needs with enthusiasm, nailed our request for music types, and did a great job at reading the room during party time. The party and dancing was super important to us, and he really understood the crowd and played music to get everyone pumped.

We cannot praise Richard enough as he helped us announce everything at the wedding, making each transition seamless and even learned to play a last-minute song for our first dance.

He even sang a special request of Over the Rainbow too - a classic on the ukelele. He encourages everyone to sing along as well so it was fun that we were able to do that. We were able to surprise my husbad when he showed up at the house and I told my husband there was a special delivery for him. My husband enjoyed it so much that he was almost in tears (of joy and happiness). There's something about the sound of the ukelele that's very soothing and peaceful. My husband said he couldn't ask for anything more. It made his birthday extra special.

The guy is traveling around the Bay Area. He is either solo, with the Bob and Lenny Show or with Cynthia Lin. Hula Hoops in South San Francisco, Oakland Museum of California, anywhere in the Bay Area Ukulenny is performing. He is a YouTube sensation and on Spotify! I will confess that I don't have his album but I have check out his performance across the Bay Area. He even teaches ukulele courses. Take his classes and you will learn a lot. What can't Ukuelenny do? He can do about EVERYTHING! Anyone who does not give Ukulenny 5 stars review should have a big ego. 5 star rating Ukulenny.

Working with Joey was an unbelievable pleasure. My now husband and I were quite nervous about…read morehiring a DJ (naturally given it was our first time!), but the second I found and spoke to Joey over the phone in an introductory call, I knew we were in good hands. His warmth, charisma and incredible professional experience was apparent, even during those first few minutes. Joey is an unbelievably talented performer (he played live cello at our ceremony) and a well seasoned DJ. What we didn't know when we first hired him, was just how much help Joey would be in helping us schedule and orchestrate the flow of our full wedding. We had multiple calls and meetings, well before the wedding day, where Joey kept us informed and confident all throughout. He helped us coordinate the music not only to the most important parts of the wedding, but also to all in the in-betweens, making sure that good vibes were always flowing throughout the whole thing. We truly couldn't have asked for a better person to make it all happen. Joey is also someone who is incredibly organized and pays great attention to detail and timing. He kept things moving (even though that was outside the scope of his work) and made sure everything was on schedule. Even when we ended up going overtime (not to the fault of Joey but family getting too carried away with speeches!), Joey quickly and expertly adjusted his set and made the final dance party something we will never forget. I truly mean this when I say don't look any further. Don't hesitate in hiring Joey--if we had to do it all over again, we would pick Cello Joe, every single time. --and to Joey: thank you so much for everything. You truly made our wedding a day we will never forget.
