Be Smart!

ALL of THESE reviews are of John Parker & his ONE band! - SO many companies sell the SAME band name MANY times on the SAME date using COMPLETELY different people - So reviews about them are worthless if you don't get those same people.

You can contact our reviews! - many other bands' "reviews" are written by the bands themselves, & promoted by websites that SELL them advertising on big wedding vendor sites. Sad, but true.

as in you can contact 100% of them!- because the reviews you see here are REAL John Parker band clients who YOU can call or email to talk to about how the JP band made their wedding, party, or gala great!

PS: we're SORRY! - We don't stuff a camera or phone in our clients face at the end of the night to make them give us a video testimonial - It's rude, it's incredibly tacky, & we're not going to do that to people (including YOU)! (but, hey, if that's your thing, not to worry - there's plenty of other bands that will! :)

Want clients' email addresses & phone numbers? GREAT - we can give you hundreds! You can then talk to people when it's NOT the end of their wedding or event & they're trying to say goodbye to their guests - LOL

AND KNOW; a lot of companies have "no negative reviews" clauses in their contracts (we do NOT) - and many PAY for positive reviews (yep, really) We think that's BS.

JP has no "twin" or "lookalike" - As nowadays so many "bands" are just companies that send out random musicians using the SAME band name for different events all across the country! - so a review for them means literally nothing because you have NO idea exactly who YOU will be getting. Does that seem good? Not to us.


Need someone professional, experienced, dependable & AWESOME that you can COUNT on? - JP was personally at EVERY event reviewed here, & John will personally be at YOUR event too!


With most bands you really don't know WHAT you're going to get. With John Parker - you DO!


  • "...Thank you John. You guys were phenomenal.

    You set the tone from the start. We knew from the beginning that even if everything else didn't work out,the band would be great!.

    I know people will be calling you to play for them after seeing you Saturday. Thanks again for being a big part of a special day for us all..."

    The way they performed everything - from modern day top 40, to oldies, made our night amazing.
