We first saw Funkee Station at Dick O’Dow’s in Birmingham to check them out to play our wedding. We were instantly impressed by their musical ability, song selection (it was like they could read our minds about what songs we wanted to hear!) and just their overall enthusiasm to play great music. We instantly hired them to play our wedding at the Roostertail. Again from the moment they went on, the dance floor was packed and the songs they played got everyone moving. We had a DJ to emcee and to play songs during breaks, but Funkee Station controlled the room. The most memorable part for me is when I was dancing with my wife and the sax player got off stage, came over by us and did a solo and made the moment extra special. We were so impressed with Funkee Station my wife recommended them for a corporate function that her work put on. You’re a truly exceptional band and we hope to see you guys play again soon! Thanks Funkee Station, you made our wedding day!

Going on our 3rd year of marriage and we
can't stop thinking about how memorable your band made our wedding. Our family
and friends are still talking about how great you guys were. My brother-in-law
is in a band and was having so much fun listening to you guys during dinner that
he kept forgetting to eat. One of Nick's cousin still has your card because he
is convinced that he is going to book you guys for one of his big family events.
I could go on and on, but the one thing I will never forget is how you learned
how to play "Faithfully" for us. We both instantly think of you guys playing at
our wedding when that song is ever played. Feel free to have any of your
potential clients give me a call if they have any doubt about having you guys
play in their wedding.
THANKS AGAIN FOR EVERYTHING--Nick & Ann

The only word I can use to describe your recent performance at my husband's 30th Birthday Party is absolutely amazing. Your group surpassed my expectations in every possible way. The music was top notch, the energy was electric and your group had all of our guests up shaking their thangs all night long. To add to it, the hall where we hosted the party is a difficult venue to do with it's high ceilings and terrible acoustics, but your sound was incredible and did not suffer at all. There were so many compliments from all of my guests on how great the band was, you really made the party. Thank you for everything especially playing to the crowd, making my birthday guy fell like the king, and enjoying yourselves. You are a great group of guys to work with! I am ready to book you guys again as soon as possible.Jeffrey & Julianne

Dear Kevin,
Funkee Station was one of the highlights of our wedding reception -- I really
can't imagine a better band for the event. Your music was great, you clearly
enjoyed yourselves while playing, and you were very professional from start to
finish. The dinner music set the mood beautifully and the dancing music got
everyone up, from little kids to grandparents. Everyone talked about how much
they enjoyed you, and at least one friend was planning to contact you for her
own event. Good luck and thank you so much!
Best,
Dave and Anne-Marie

You did such a good job at our wedding - everyone commented on how you made the
night great. You went from playing great jazzy music during dinner, to 'turning
it up' when it was time to dance - and you really got our friends out on the
dance floor. Friends were dancing who usually never get out & dance! The music
and song choices were perfect, and having a 'traveling' sax into the crowd was a
fun touch.
You were accommodating about playing requests. Everyone in the band is friendly
and fun. I will recommend Funkeestation 100% to anyone looking for a high-energy
and great band.
THANK YOU FUNKEESTATION!

When these guys get started you can’t keep from moving and grooving. Try
