The Hook Club was incredible on our wedding day and we would highly recommend. They came well reviewed from friends who had attended weddings where THC performed and we totally get why. They killed it! Everything about working with The Hook Club was easy - they were responsive throughout the booking and planning process and never left any doubt we had made the right choice. From the initial set of band configurations they had sent over at varying price points to the setlist planning and actual wedding day Dan and Adam were professional, friendly and on top of everything. We wound up going with the DJ/Band option and it was perfect - nearly everyone (including elderly grandparents) were on their feet all night dancing to THC and all we heard about for days after the wedding was how great the music was. They went out of their way to work in a wide mix of genres and the band breaks allowed the DJ to play other fun numbers. There is a lot to keep track of when planning a wedding and the band is one of the most important parts of the reception - do yourself a favor and book The Hook Club.

Christina was our DJ. She responded to our initial inquiry within two hours and sent a form to get to know us better.

Bassist and bandleader Josh Levine got his start in the professional music business busking in SoHo with The Flying Neutrinos in ’93, so when NYC shut down in Spring of 2020, he capitalized on his experience as a street performer and began to play regularly in the parks of NYC with percussionist and sonero, Jainardo Batista, renowned flutist Itai Kriss making his debut on Cuban trés guitar, and María Raquel on vocals and minor percussion. Before long, the quartet had generated some buzz, several venues hired them to play outdoors and pianist Gabriel Chakarji and Grammy winning flutist and vocalist Jeremy Bosch became staples of the group.
