Free Rain is an incredible band! We had them perform at our wedding. Absolutely every attendee was dancing. I've never been to a wedding where this many people were on the dance floor. They played all of our favorite songs, took special requests ahead of time, and emceed our first dance. We loved their energy and repertoire. They are quite talented and were a pleasure to deal with! All of our friends that are planning weddings asked about them!

What a fantastic performance! Free Rain recently played our wedding and we could not be happier. From beginning to end they were easy to work with, accommodating to change, and willing to learn "our song." The dance floor was full the entire night, they didn't play a single dud, and were fantastic with playing to the crowd. A fantastic experience and great value for us, we would certainly recommend them to anyone.

Everyone's sore legs the day after the wedding said it all. Free Rain made it irresistible to dance. And this only can come from one thing: their tightness as a group. The polished sound that was created was up there with the best I have heard in a live act, and I have been to probably a hundred live shows in my life. They are very well practiced and a deep groove comes easily. When they're on the stage they are not just trudging through the songs; they are truly performing them. And their enjoyment of what they do is the contagious factor that creates a worry-free vibe for the audience. They read the night well and they're showmanship was honest and professional.

We hire bands for a corporate event every year. We received more compliments about this band than we ever have. They were extremely engaging and worked the crowd. The song selection was perfect. They were professional and courteous. The dance floor was packed the entire time.
The following day, we had a lot of customers thanking us for the evening. Generally, we'll have a half dozen thank us but the response was overwhelming for this band. Customers approached me at the dance to say that this band was better than any band we've hired in previous years. That's saying a lot because half of our staff are musicians and they help select the bands.

There are not enough superlatives in the thesaurus to fully describe how incredible Free Rain was for our wedding. Dale was a pleasure to work with from the first contact, and everything was perfect. The band was willing to learn a new song for our first dance, and they pulled it off flawlessly. Every guest (no exaggeration) asked where we found such an incredible band, and everyone loved it. Great mix of songs that had all ages on the dance floor, and the skill level of the band is impressive. They were able to roll with a few last minute changes to the plan, and Dale was willing to act as MC for a few announcements that had to be made. OUTSTANDING BAND!

We had Free Rain play for our wedding at Karma Vineyards in Chelan, Washington--they were absolutely PHENOMENAL! Every guest at the wedding raved about how good they were--they got the whole place dancing and even let me sit in and play some guitar on a few songs. They couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating to our requests. My parents even said they were the best wedding band they had heard since their own wedding, and that was over 30 years ago! In short, they are a great time, they sound great, they play everything, and I highly recommend them for any occasion.

Free Rain did an absolutely fantastic job at our wedding reception! They were professional and easy to work with throughout the whole process, and they were extremely accommodating (played the role of emcee throughout the reception, and provided sound system for our ceremony and toasts). Most importantly they really kept the party rocking! Our guests danced like crazy all night! We would absolutely recommend Free Rain.
Bar Mitzvah•Reviewed on April 1, 2012•From Seattle, WA
I think this was their first Bar Mitzvah party, and they were great. The party was in the temple social hall (not the most conducive place for rocking out), but they had everyone on the floor from age 4 to 60. They had a fun, funky, loose personality and got people involved. And they did a great "Hava Nigila"! They didn't really follow our recommendations, but almost every song the did do worked well for the party. They were very professional, and quite nice as well. I would recommend them strongly.

The band was great, very accomodating, terrific energy. We had a small wedding and they had all able bodies on the dance floor. Thanks, Free Rain!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on July 18, 2011•From Woodinville, WA
We could not be more pleased! Free Rain exceeded every expectation. They performed for my husband's 50th birthday bash. The dance floor was full the entire night & we had an absolute blast. They're very talented & more guests than I can count, complimented the band. We're already looking forward to another event where we can hire Free Rain again. They were absolute professionals in every way & made the event! THANK YOU!
Corporate Function•Reviewed on February 2, 2011•From Seattle, WA
We held a corporate event for 1,500 guests at the Museum of Flight and everyone absolutely LOVED Free Rain. They had a great energy and a lot of talent. I had to ask the band to quit playing so our guests would actually leave the dance floor to catch the bus back. I highly recommend them!

Free Rain MADE my reception into a FUN PARTY (which was exactly what I wanted!!!). They exceeded all expectations, and had people dancing till the very end!!! The dance floor was NEVER empty, Free Rain engaged with the guests and were AMAZING. We had guests ages 20-65 years of age who never left the dance floor - everyone LOVED the music and Free Rain was so very talented. If you want a phenomenal dance party with great music and people having fun all night long Free Rain is the band to hire!
They showed up on time (before time!), were very professional and accommodating, even helping my sister with a song that she wrote for her toast! THANK YOU FREE RAIN

On a rating scale of 1 to 5, we would give Free Rain a 15!! They played our wedding and I cannot imagine having chosen a better, more fun or more prepared and professional group of musicians. If you are looking to bring the house down and show all of your guests an incredible evening, Free Rain is definitely the band to go with. They play awesome, classic music that gets EVERYONE on the dance floor from young kids to grandparents. Whenever I throw a party that needs live music, I will be hiring Free Rain!! Dale and the Gang are my heros.....thank you a million times over for helping to make our wedding truly spectacular and unforgettable!!!!! FREE RAIN RULES!!!
