Mike and Those Guys are the best band I could have wanted to play our wedding. Leading up to the big day Mike was very helpful and communicated with us about everything. He worked hard to help us plan everything out, and on the day of was emcee, event coordinator, and musician all in one. The sound was phenomenal and the singing was perfect.
If I ever need to hire another band, Those Guys are my first choice.

Craig!!!! What a blast with your family! Congrats to you and Christine, and thank you again for trusting myself and everyone here at Those Guys Entertainment; the pleasure was ours! Woo-hoo!!!!

Crushed Crushed Crushed it!!!
We had a 5 person ensemble and they did an absolutely amazing job!! Our outdoor ceremony was rained out but they were able to set up in doors in a very short amount of time and rocked it. Our guests loved the music and were dancing all night long.
Could not have asked for a better band.
Thank You!

I mean EVERYONE at the party was talking about THOSE GUYS because they were so amazing! We cannot recommend them enough and if anyone is heisting about hiring Those Guys, there is no need to be they are amazing guys & are nothing short of fantastic. All of the guests were so impressed with the variety of music the guys were able to perform at such high level and kept asking us who the band was. If you are looking for a dynamic band that will bring your party, wedding, gathering to the next level then look no further than THOSE GUYS because you will not be disappointed and neither will your guests!

We could not have been happier with the band "Those Guys"! Mike, the lead singer, was just fantastic throughout the entire process. We had some venue problems and he picked up the phone to contact the wedding planner himself to make sure everything went smooth. Mike, and his band, are honestly true professionals and had everyone up on their feet all night. If you want your wedding to be a dance party, "Those Guys" is the way to go! Thank you again for being amazing!

We could not have been happier after booking with Those Guys, they did such an amazing job at our wedding! We really wanted a band at the wedding instead of a dj, but were also worried people may not dance as much. We had a Sunday afternoon brunch wedding outdoors, so we felt a band would be more appropriate for the setting. Those Guys had everyone up and dancing throughout the whole reception! So many people came up to us after raving about the band and how much they enjoyed them. Mike was so easy to work with from beginning to end. We can't put into words how highly we recommend Mike and Thise Guys! Thank you so much again!

Those Guys were simply incredible. Mike was amazing to work with before and during the event, providing excellent music for the ceremony and the reception. The band's set surpassed our high expectations. People of all generations had a blast on the dance floor all night, literally rocking the barn. Everyone could not stop remarking about how amazing the band and atmosphere were. We cannot possibly describe in words how amazing the night was and what a big part Those Guys played in it.
Book Those Guys now before someone else does!

Right after our wedding, our guests told us how amazing Mike and Those Guys were and we wholeheartedly agree. They know which songs to play to get a crowd dancing and having a good time. Mike communicated well with us prior to the event and the night of. He MC'd the wedding and it is quite clear how talented he is. Those Guys accommodated all of our special requests. We feel very fortunate to have found them for our wedding. Thanks Guys!

Those Guys played for our wedding last night at Waters Edge Resort and Spa, and they were absolutely phenomenal. The band surprised us by learning our first dance song, and it was fantastic! Mike did an incredible job playing at our ceremony and cocktail hour. The band kept the party going all night at the reception! We received many compliments about how great the band was. We would definitely recommend Those Guys for your next event! Truly a pleasure to work with and SO easy going ! Thank you for making everything so easy for us and putting on a fabulous show without a glitch!

We are so happy that we found Those Guys to play at our wedding. They made the whole day flow so smoothly. Before the wedding, we sent them a schedule and the day of all we had to do was show up and enjoy ourselves! Mike was on top of everything, from our schedule, to the names of people giving toasts, to our requested songs. The day worked out exactly like we pictured and that only happened because of this great band! They all had a great energy and had everyone dancing. Of course, they're also very musically talented. We requested some songs not on their set and they played them beautifully. We highly recommend this band! They're amazing!

We're so thankful & appreciative that we had Those Guys perform at our wedding. To be fair, they did much more than just perform. Prior to the event, they were nothing but professional, taking the time to learn about us & our vision for our wedding & making sure we were at ease going into the big day. They worked well with our other vendors & did a great job keeping us on track with timing, without making us feel rushed. As far as the music, they were amazing! They gauged the crowd well, playing music that really enhanced our party & kept everyone on the dance floor! Our guests even told us how much they enjoyed the band! We would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Those Guys are FANTASTIC! My parents are live music fanatics and wanted to hire one of the many bands they know, but my fiancee and I were adamant that we hire a band rehearsed in doing weddings & though they were not initially happy with our decision, they changed their minds VERY quickly on our wedding day. Those Guys got raving reviews from all of our guests who could not believe that a band we found off a website and hired without hearing live could be so amazing. Mike was in constant communication leading up to the wedding and very quickly responded to every request and inquiry. They are extremely easy to work with and very flexible. I can not recommend enough.

We are so thrilled with our decision to choose Those Guys for our wedding reception! We didn't have a wedding planner or day-of coordinator, so it was amazing to have Those Guys to take care of the schedule and flow for the reception. We planned a special entrance, and the band made sure to come out and organize and direct the bridal party. This was great for my husband and I, because we were able to enjoy the moment instead of answer questions and organize throughout the night.
Guests told us it was one of the only weddings they had been to where everyone was dancing! We got so many compliments on the entertainment and had the time of our lives! 5 stars!

Thank YOU Kim, we all had a wonderful time! Your family was great to play for, the honor was ours!!!

Working with Those Guys was a phenomenal experience! From the moment I reached out to Mike to the very end of our wedding- they were the best. Most importantly they saved our wedding! Thunder hit and it blew out all the power right before Those Guys were about to go on! There was barely any panic and they struck up playing our first dance song acoustic with the entire wedding singing along! It was remarkable! The band played on all night, even moved their equipment back under the reception tent to keep people dancing! We would recommend Those Guys to anyone and everyone and look forward to working with them again in the future! Thank you for saving our wedding!

I can't begin to express how pleased we were with the talent, professionalism, humor, attention, energy, and dedication that Mike and the band brought to our wedding. We hosted a black tie wedding for nearly 200 people, and Those Guys won the hearts of literally everybody there. I have never seen a wedding with every single guest crowding the dance floor and having a blast. Those Guys truly made the wedding what it was, with comment after comment from our guests about the excellent music. You can't go wrong with this top notch band! Thank you for everything, Mike!!

First off, Mike is pretty much the most professional and accommodating person I have ever worked with. He went out of his way to make sure every request was met. The band learned our first dance song and did an awesome job! Everyone raved about how amazing the band was, and they kept the party going all night long. Every person was out of their seats dancing and multiple people told me that it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to. We added on trumpet and keyboard players and I would highly recommend doing this....The sound was just amazing and everyone is SO talented! Hiring Those Guys was hands down the best decision I made for my wedding!!!

I also play in a wedding band. My expectations were high and they exceeded them. I looked at many bands and I knew they were it as soon Mike called me. I had a lot of special requests and they nailed all of them. They handled the sound at the ceremony, cocktail hour, and the reception. Mike was so incredible easy to work with and was super accommodating. They sounded amazing. Everyone was dancing their faces off. They also let me sing a song to my wife. I would highly recommend them for any wedding, corporate event, or party. I requested a keyboard player and female vocalist which was a great addition. We can't thank them enough for their everything.

I am beyond thrilled with Those Guys. They played for my wedding sept 2015 and they made the night! Mike was so helpful with song suggestions and timelines. He truly went above and beyond to make sure the day was perfect. Mike and Those Guys even went as far as to include my father and older brother in the band for my our first dance to make the song extra special. I truly can not say enough good things about this band and I am recommending them to anyone who will listen! They are awesome. They will play exactly what you want and will go out of their way to make your day!!!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on August 23, 2015•From Providence, RI
I can't say enough about this band. We hired them without even meeting in person, going only off of reviews online and their audio clips, and several conversations over the phone. Mike made us comfortable and made it clear that he would do whatever it takes to make our wedding exactly as we wanted it to be, which was incredible! Even more, we hired Mike only three weeks before the wedding after a falling out with an unprofessional Dj. Nevertheless, Mike came through in every way, played awesome sets that we customized with him beforehand, and they were certainly the hit of the wedding! Just terrific. Everyone raved about them. Talented professionals all around!

What an AMAZING addition to our wedding day!! From top to bottom, I couldn't have asked for more. The quality of sound, professionalism, wide range of musical styles, and the ability to get everyone dancing and having a great time from young to old, is all a testament to their skill involved and care taken with our important day. They are entertaining as they are highly accomplished as musicians, and so many times throughout the night my friends and family were RAVING about them. Beyond needing the band for my wedding reception, I also needed music for the ceremony at a different location, so Mike set everything up without me ever needing to worry. Truly top notch.

Those Guys were everything we hoped our wedding band would be. Leading up to the wedding, they were always so responsive and really did everything to make us feel special and make it clear that they would do everything they could to make our wedding the best it could be. In addition to having them play the reception, we had Mike play guitar during the ceremony, which was perfect. We recommend them completely and know that anyone who books them will have a top notch experience.

When my wife and i decided to get married i told her she could be in charge of everything except for hiring the band. Ive been playing music since i was a kid so having a great wedding band was extremely important to me plus i wanted to join in and rip it up with the band. I also knew i didnt have to pay 5 or 6 k for a super tight prof. Sounding band and those guys fit the bill completely. Not only was mike omara, jarrod, and john extremely professional and knowledgable about performing at weddings but they are some of the most real, cool, genuine, dudes on the planet! Everyone could not stop raving about how good they sounded. They are the best deal here period!

Have nothing but amazing things to say about Those Guys and especially Mike O'mara. They played for my wedding celebration in May. They learned new songs and played all the requests we had from their set list. Countless guests came up to me to comment on how awesome the band was. They are a group of very talented guys and they don't upcharge you for weddings, which is very hard to find nowadays. Would highly recommend them to anyone who wants to have a fun party!
