New York, NY

Band or Ensemble
Starts at $3,500
Serves Princeville, HI for additional fees

Based in New York City, The Hook Club is one of the tri-state area's most exciting and unique wedding bands. Owned and operated by a tight-knit community of musicians, they are known for their attention to every musical detail and the professionalism they bring to every event. Their unconventional group has mastered the art of creating a great dance party that keeps guests on the dance floor all night and then humming the songs the next day!

“I don't think there are enough superlatives to describe our experience with The Hook Club. "Sensational", "Awesome," "Fantastic" are the first three that come to mind. We hired The Hook Club for our 125 person wedding after speaking with Dan, the owner of the band. He was incredibly friendly, professional, and knowledgable. He immediately made us feel confident that he understood the vibe we were going for and that he could deliver a fun energy packed evening. His passion for music definitely shines through. The planning process is a breeze- they have a great system for letting them know what music you like (and what you don't) and for special requests. Their repertoire is extensive. I mean really extensive. Pop, Contemporary, Oldies, Classics, Rock, Country, they can play it. The day of our wedding, The Hook Club NAILED IT. We had very specific requests for the ceremony. Our parents walked down the aisle to Lovely Day and it was a gorgeous arrangement. And we walked down the aisle to Thank you For Being A Friend- The Golden Girls Theme) and when they played it- everybody went crazy. It was so good!!!! The bespoke trio brought the celebratory, loungey fun vibe to our cocktail hour. The reception exceeded expectations. They had the dance floor packed from our pre-dinner dance session (Thank for the suggestion Dan!) all the way to "Last Dance" when everybody took their final spin around the dance floor. We had so many people come up to during the wedding and say how good the 10 piece band was. The entire band and vocalists were engaged, super fun, and sounded like a billion bucks. The energy they create takes a great wedding to an exceptional memorable elevated event. If you are looking for a band for your event- look no further.”

“One thing about me, I’m going to leave a review! Having officiated several weddings over the years, I've witnessed a myriad of bands take the stage, but this particular band stands out. Living Jade’s remarkable blend of professionalism, talent, and passion elevated the atmosphere of the entire ceremony and reception. It’s refreshing to have musicians who understand volume control during the ceremony. I could actually hear myself think and I didn’t have to compete with their playing when moving the service along. Their ability to read the crowd, catering to both young and old, ensured the dance floor was never empty. The soulful melodies during the vows brought tears to many, and their vibrant tunes during the reception brought uncontainable joy. I wholeheartedly recommend them to any couple seeking a musical experience that resonates long after the last note. Exceptional in every sense!”

Serves Princeville, HI for additional fees

"My guests didn't stop raving about how awesome the band was." This is direct from a wedding client review. Our diverse repertoire allows us to help you create the perfect soundtrack for your wedding (Ask for our song list!) We are a contest winning, personable band looking to make your wedding unforgettable. We perform dozens of wedding per year. Great with all ages, special requests and have event planning experience. I'd love to provide price quotes tiered for up to a 6 piece band. That way you can find the perfect balance for your budget and music entertainment needs.

“Working with Leo was a great experience. He went above and beyond in providing me the service I had anticipated. His band Wild Faith played for my wedding reception just last weekend and they sounded great. When I first started talking with Leo about his availability he was prompt in his communication and also offered to learn new song material beyond his already extensive set list. This was what really made Leo an exceptional value to us. His offer of learning special songs for us, attention to detail, timeliness in communication as well as showing up on time at our cold and rainy outdoor ceremony site were what he delivered. His band sounded great and he also nailed everyone of our requested songs. In my opinion Leo and his band were ultimately a great fit for us. His value in comparison to other bands I spoke with was unsurpassed. It's a shame that far to often when the term wedding comes up in the hiring process, bands and other vendors seem to charge more for no other reason than the simple fact that they chose to do so. Leo did not over charge for his services and his performance was simply amazing. My guests didn't stop raving about how awesome the band was. He made our wedding special with his professionalism, kindness and the unique sound of his band. He was engaging with the crowd and I wouldn't hesitate to hire Wild Faith again for any future needs. I highly recommend talking to Leo about any live music performances you need to book. He will over deliver and you will be the beneficiary of his work.”

“Sean was exactly what we wanted in a musician for our November 4th, 2023 wedding at Loulu Palm in Haleiwa. We were looking for a professional musician who could stand out and make our ceremony special, but also provide the entertainment in the background during cocktail hour. Sean is professional, courteous, and very responsive. He can play a variety of music and knows so many songs as listed on his website. Sean delivered and we are very happy with his services. If you are looking for an incredible guitarist, singer, and musician for your event, we highly recommend Sean Cleland. Thank you Sean!”
