Do you want your reception to rock?
Where's the fun in playing air guitar to a pre-recorded track when uncle Bob could be rockin' out, shoulder to shoulder, with a Next Exit axe grinder?
Remember, you're celebrating the biggest day of your life. So, when all the "formal "stuff is over and you want to let your veil down (or would that be up?) you want to throw a party friends and family will be talking about for years. We suggest you "ditch the DJ" and literally liven up the music. Why?
People will stick around for the party - There's little mystery in a DJ, but fill a stage with keyboards, guitars and drums and people want to see what it's all about.
Better pictures - With so much fun happening there's always something to get a shot of.
It's just more fun - Guitarists roaming the dance floor, a bridesmaid shaking the tambourine, even the bride and groom playing a little cowbell.
But don't take our word for it. See what clients are saying about Next Exit. (references also available upon request).
Next Exit is full of energy and they know how to get a crowd dancing! They are a blast and didn't want them to stop playing (we could have partied all night with them). We couldn't have chosen a better band for our wedding and would definitely hire them again for another event!

The band did a superb job. Many at the wedding reception asked about the Band and said how good the group sounded. We have been to many weddings over the years and several this summer. Next Exit is about as good as it gets. They kept the reception lively and interacted well with the crowd. They were so good that a number of our non-dancing friends were on the dance floor for a while. Our club management was very impressed and may well ask them to come back for a club-sponsored affair. Also, they were very easy to work with and extremely polite and polished. The song list was super. I would hire them again in a minute.

"Next Exit was fabulous. They were great MCs and excellent performers. We had so many comments from our wedding guests as to how good they were. We couldn't have been happier with any other band. They were also willing to work with our budget. That meant a lot to us. We couldn't be happier. We want to book them all over again!"

"Next Exit was excellent! We hired them without ever hearing or seeing them in person. We were not disappointed. Sean was very easy to work with and extremely organized, I think maybe even more organized than I was! We had around 170 guests at our wedding, a lot of them from Chicago, and I think all of them wanted to know how and where we found such a great band. Everyone was out on the dance floor and seemed to have a really great time. It's almost worth having another wedding just to have them come play again. We can't rave about them enough."

"We were so thrilled with Next Exit's performance. People have been calling and asking where we found them and how they can contact them for upcoming events. They were fun, personable, professional, and went out of their way to accommodate our needs. They helped make our wedding exactly what we had dreamed!!!!"

"Next Exit really does rock! We had an enormous client appreciation party with over 900 guests and I'm still receiving rave reviews! Additionally, they were extremely professional and provided a contract immediately upon agreement of terms, and communicated continually with me during the planning process. All I can ask is that if you plan to hire them, save dates for us as we will be using them as much as possible!"

I have been in charge of our Company Christmas celebration for the last 5 years. I would have to say that this is the first time that I did not have to stress about the band. They were very professional and work with us to make this a very big success. I have had nothing but great responses from everyone that attended. Great job Next Exit.
