Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 1, 2024•From Chicago, IL

It was such a positive experience working with Mike Knauf, who was proactive with communication, professional, responsive and accommodating before and during the gig. Our friends and family had a great time at the polka party!

Oktoberfest Party•Reviewed on October 20, 2024•From Chicago, IL

Mike Knauf Music provided the Musikmeisters for our Oktoberfest. Mike was so easy to work with. He was great with communication, always available to answer any questions I had about our event. The four band members were wonderful, and not only played fun music, but got the crowd involved in the songs. They even brought bells and a long Alpine horn!! Our guests raved about the entertainment, and if we have another Oktoberfest, we will definitely be using Mike Knauf Music!!

We had Mike and the Musikmeisters out for a school Oktoberfest. Mike's Knauf Music was incredibly entertaining and easy to work with! They played a wide selection of traditional Bavarian music using a variety of instruments and kept the audience fully engaged throughout the event. We would recommend them for any fundraiser or school function!

Oktoberfest Party•Reviewed on October 7, 2024•From Roscoe, IL

Mike Knauf's band performed at our Fall Market this past September and they met all the special requests that we asked for, including dressing in lederhosen. The band sounded very authentic and pulled our entire event together. I would recommend his services for future events!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on August 25, 2024•From Lakeport, MI

Mike and the Musikmeisters did a wonderful job performing for my Mom’s 90th birthday. Everyone in attendance enjoyed their variety of music and most unusual instruments (Swiss bells and longhorn). If the opportunity presents itself where we’d require another Bavarian music theme, Mike and his group would certainly be at the top of the list.

Graduation Party•Reviewed on June 10, 2024•From Arlington Heights, IL

Our experience with Mike and his quartet was nothing short of exceptional. Mike was incredibly professional and accommodating leading up to our party, and he followed all of our special requests. Additionally, they were all phenomenal musicians. Each member was extremely talented, and I say that as someone who listens to jazz almost every day! We will absolutely work with Mike again if we need live entertainment at another event.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 3, 2024•From Dyer, IN

Hired Mike and one of his fellow musicians to play at the end of my father's 'Celebration of Life" ceremony. They made a sorrowful occasion a bit lighter. My entire family was very impressed with their talent and professionalism. My brother asked, "Who is that and where did you find them? I'm going to keep that in my back packet and hire them one day! "

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on December 23, 2023•From Dundee, IL

Phenomenal experience! Mike was so easy to work with - responding promptly, extremely detailed and clear, and truly made the process of hiring a band to fit our exact needs seamless. They were the perfect addition to our German-themed party. Our guests we having so much fun dancing and singing that we ended up extending their performance time. They gave us an authentic German experience, were open and accomodating to song requests and extended time, and made the night special for our guest of honor. Highly recommend!

Corporate Function•Reviewed on December 1, 2023•From Milwaukee, WI

I booked the Mike Knauf Jazz Trio for a corporate event I had. Mike was very communicative with me ahead of the event and we got many details squared away. He and his bandmates arrived early to set up and were a pleasure to listen to and work with. I would highly recommend working with them and I found them on The Bash website.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 25, 2023•From Chicago, IL

Mike Knauf and his band came to our college student banquet at Willis Tower in April, and they truly were the highlight of the night! Our Dean was so impressed and even said we need to rebook them, so hopefully we will be working with Mike and his band again soon. He communicated great - was very thorough and wanted no detail left missed. His familiarity with downtown venues was a bonus as he knew what questions to ask that I might not have thought of. The talent of the performers was superior in every way. Truly an event to remember. Thanks, Mike!
