Review by Sarah Jayne K.

WeddingReviewed on August 3, 2024From Stoddard, NH

The Chris Humphrey Big Band exceeded my already high expectations! I was very excited to have the 14-piece band play at my wedding, and they were even better than I could have imagined. Leading up to the wedding Chris was easy to work with and very accommodating. He was also a great MC, putting everyone at ease and very professional. I was blown away by the musicianship, friendly demeanor, and fun atmosphere of the band. Every guest had positive feedback! I recommend this band to everyone who is looking for a memorable experience and true quality in their music.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on July 17, 2023From Madison, ME

The Chris Humphrey Big Band was fantastic! Thank you, thank you, for making my birthday party something truly special. Despite some technical difficulties on the venue's end, Chris Humphrey and co. kindly soldiered on and played an amazing set of 1940s-era music. Every one of my friends and family reached out to me to let me know it was a fun, refreshing experience to have a live big band, and that it was an event they would always remember. I cannot recommend highly enough this talented group of musicians!
