Parkside Drive completely exceeded our expectations! With Covid in full force while we were planning our April 2022 wedding, we never had the opportunity to see Parkside Drive live so we committed based on their videos and our numerous conversations with Dave. He was so easy to work with and, given the uncertainty surrounding Covid, was always accommodating as we worked through the potential roadblocks of the band making it to Buffalo. Our first dance was the first time we actually heard them perform live and it was so much better than we could have imagined. They are clearly professionals who know how to set the tone for a great party. We left the setlist completely up to them and the dance floor was full all night! Our guests are still talking about how great the music was from start to finish. We really cannot recommend Parkside Drive enough!

f you’re looking for a live band or looking to take any event to the next level, hire Parkside Drive!!!
Dave (the manager of the group) is responsive, transparent, helpful, reliable and made the planning process so seamless.
The band itself was absolutely amazing! They brought an awesome energy to my wedding and everyone kept asking me who they were and when they could book them for their own party! Each member of the group was extremely talented and friendly. They were forced to worked in a very confined space and they simply made it work, no complaints. They are truly a class-act group that is beyond talented. I would highly recommend them for any type of event! Thank you Parkside Drive for making my wedding reception a blast for everyone and a night they will always remember! Can’t recommend them enough!

Parkside Drive are amazing! Meg has a powerful, beautiful voice and an incredible range. I can't believe she can sing Aretha Franklin and the Stones all in the same set with gusto! The lead guitar guy plays like Mark Knoffler or Stevie Ray with the slider. I have seen them many times and also had them play at my event at a local venue. They always put on a great show. I recommend them highly.

We could not have asked for a better band to perform at our wedding! Our wedding was in Buffalo, NY and Dave reached out far in advance to let us know that all of their paperwork was in place to come back and forth over the border for our wedding so there was nothing for us to worry about. Dave was very responsive and great to chat with when discussing details and plans. The band performed a trio during our ceremony, a 5-piece jazz band during the cocktail hour, and the full 9-piece band for the reception. The band performed and sang our first dance and both mother/groom and father/daughter songs - incredibly! They even did a (from what I know) last-minute happy birthday performance during my dad's speech, as we got married on my birthday. The band played the best mix of current and older songs that EVERYONE could dance to. We have not stopped receiving compliments from guests on how great the band was. We planned on having a live band from the beginning rather than a DJ, and they were everything we could have imagined for our special day and more! The dancefloor was packed the whole night! We can't recommend them enough!

Our other scheduled band canceled at 3pm the day before our wedding (singer got Covid). I reached out to Dave Barnes and he got back to me immediately. He moved heaven and earth and the next day I was blown away by the band in form of professionalism, talent, skill and energy. Parkside drive became the engine of the party. The dance floor did not stop with song after song of hits, many the previous band wouldn't play due to the difficulty level. The vocalist's interaction with the crowd, and level of energy really took the party to the next level. My fiance jokingly rapped a couple of phrases from 8mile in her speech and later the band actually not only started playing the song but brought up my wife on stage to show off her skills, of course helping her out when she lost her place and brought the song home, with flow and grace. It was an absolute highlight of the evening. The process of hiring, level of attentiveness and follow through exceed all expectations and I cannot recommend Parkside Drive high enough as not only one of the best wedding bands, but best bands I have ever had the pleasure of seeing.
