  • “John Parker was 10/10.

    Such a great singer and emcee, with a hugely fun ice-breaking personality. His experience and his classy but fun & down to earth way with people was perfect for our guests.

    Our whole group were dancing the entire time - JP just keeps it going - super obvious it wasn't the first time he's done this.. LOL.

    Hopefully you'll get him for your wedding. Then invite us please!”

  • “We had the 8 piece JP band for our wedding and John did not disappoint!

    They were great, and given unfortunate experiences my friends had with their bands, we feel lucky we got him.

    Our friends went from their 20s to 30s, & our parents and other guests to their 70s & John got them ALL dancing. He took requests & had an upbeat vibe.

    We’re extremely happy to recommend JPB to anybody wanting fun for everyone & to not have to worry about anything”

    If there was one thing I knew I needed to have at my wedding it was you and your band and boy was it worth the wait!

  • “We had JP play for a small wedding on Ocean Key Sunset Pier, 15 people and they played for us like we were a party of 100. I appreciated that.

    The best part was the next day around town we heard how much others liked them! We overheard at the pool how people at the hotel sat out on their balcony to listen to the band.

    The next night at a bar in town we heard a group saying how great the band was at the pier the night before as they were eating dinner, they stayed to listen. I was SO excited to hear that others could enjoy them too.

    Thank you John Parker - You rock! 😀”
