Thanks for Listening! Club 37 I had high expectations for the band at my wedding, and Club 37 exceeded them. After dinner, when the music started, everyone was so impressed - Club 37 can really get the party going! Shawn's voice is amazing and her presence on stage is engaging but not demanding. Club 37 did a great cover of "Thriller", and John's narration sounded just like the original track. Everyone at the party got up to dance, even the oldest guests. We hired a three-person band (singer, keyboardist, and guitarist), and the ensemble was perfect for our venue (90 guests). Club 37 is awesome, and I highly recommend them to anyone wanting a professional band at their wedding. -- Katrina J, Wheaton, IL, 6/5/2010 Club 37 exceeded our expectations. We couldn't have asked for a better wedding band! I had so many people tell me that they were the best wedding band they've ever heard - everyone was so impressed. The band even allowed a few of my family members to play/sing along with them! Shawn also graciously accepted to sing at our ceremony, which added a beautiful touch. I highly recommend this group for any wedding, you will have a blast! Thank you, Club 37 made our night! -- Amy F, Waukesha, WI, 10/2/2010 Club 37 helped make my son's wedding in his words, "100% perfect!". John's experienced suggestions about how to ensure that the reception flowed well without deadtime was invaluable. But most of all, Club 37 played awesome music and they had everyone dancing all night long! I had nothing but positive comments about how good they sound, how well they play and how tuned in they are to what the guests want to hear and dance to. I've already recommended them - and I don't hesitate to say that will make any reception a blast! -- Rochelle P, Whitehall, MI, 9/17/2011 Club 37 made our wedding a blast! Our wedding was out of state and they traveled to Wisconsin and were there about 6 hours early to set up for the three locations that I needed them to play. The first set up was outside by the lake for the ceremony, then on the patio for a cocktail reception and then inside for the dinner reception. They were so accomodating and professional and all looked great! They learned new songs for us for our wedding and performed them like they had been playing them for years. The voices of the band are amazing. They worked with the crowd so well and made it so fun that our guests were on stage singing and playing bongos with them. Our guests the next day while relaxing at the pool could not stop talking about the band, and how incredible and fun they were. I would recommend Club 37 to anyone who wants beautiful music and a fun celebration! I want to have another big party so that they can perform for us again! Don't miss out on this band, grab them fast before you lose out and have to settle for just an ordinary band! -- Linda N, Delavan, WI, 6/23/2007 Club 37 was amazing and made our wedding reception wonderful. We had people from many different countries and of all age groups, but Club 37 managed to literally get everyone in the room dancing. They were completely professional, and willing to accommodate all of our special requests. They are extremely talented. Everyone that was at our wedding has been complimenting how fantastic the band was and how they really made the reception so much fun. We were so very happy that Club 37 was our wedding band. Weeks later, we are still talking about how great the music and dancing was. Thank you so much, Club 37, for making our wedding reception perfect! Beth and Seamas -- Elizabeth M, East Peoria, IL, 7/25/2009 Club 37 was highly professional yet friendly, accomodating, and a delight to work with, from booking through the performance. We asked them to work in a somewhat unusual environment, a converted coffee shop, and they handled it with ease and sounded dynamite. As for the performance, they were smooth, tight, and obviously very talented and experienced. The audience happily danced the night away and wanted more. We recommend Club 37 very enthusiastically. This is a top group of musicians and a fun band. -- Rod H, Boscobel, WI, 6/6/2009 What a great band! Our wedding reception was wonderful with their participation. Every song requested was made available and they even accommodated my talented son who sang his own song for our reception. Thank you Club 37 for being there for us! We plan to have them play at our one year anniversary party! -- Christine M, Marquette, MI, 9/15/2007

Angie's blues/jazz background adds a unique signature to the band's rock/pop cover songs not found in other bands.
