I wanted to surprise my wife for her 40th bday. Justin responded to my request and was able to capture the vision I had for the surprise and they pulled it off perfectly! She was so surprised! They played for 2 hours and even ended up doing a 2nd line for us around the sidewalk of Robert's bar Uptown. It was a night we will never forget! That bar has never seen something like that before! But I hope I see it again someday!
Jay was the first person to respond to my request. They put on a great show for our friends birthday. They played out in front of our house and brought the neighborhood out. We would hire again!
From the beginning, Justin was very responsive and despite me booking about 9 months in advance, he continued to answer all of my questions and was amenable to the different changes I made. On the day of, Justin was available for last minutes questions and confirmations and most importantly, the band sounded Amazing. We requested a specific song be played once I proposed, and although on the day of I couldn't tell you what they played, when we went back and listed to the video I could tell they played exactly what I asked and they sounded amazing!!! The Grand Marshall they hired was equally amazing and engaging and I would hire the band all over again. A million thanks for making our special day even more special!!!!!
Thank you for being a such memorable part of Maura and Deegan’s wedding. You guys were amazing, and it looks like y’all found a new tambourinist!
The group made our wedding parade a lot of fun.
I wish I could give this band 25 stars. They came to my event in downtown Baton Rouge ON TIME and we shut 3rd street down. It was an incredible experience that I will never forget. Thank you guys so much.
These fellas made my night great and the attendees loved every minute of the Birthday Celebration. Curtis was always there to answer any questions and didn’t mind assisting! I would definitely recommend WYA for any event or occasion. They won’t disappoint you!
For a big college football weekend, I wanted to plan an event to kick the weekend and Friday night off right... Where Y'At did not disappoint! The second line was the talk of the trip and we had a great time. The guys had great energy and really got the crowd going! They were amazing and made for an incredible time
This band was everything I wanted in a Second Line Band and more. The band leaders communicated promptly leading up to the event and the day of were extremely professional. Unfortunately, the drummer was lost and couldn’t make it in time, but we didn’t even notice it missing because the playing was just that good. To make up for the missing drummer, the band leader invited us to their next gig the following night and would invite us on stage and purchase drinks. All the guys were extremely talented and super nice. Everyone was very impressed! I definitely will be booking them again for future events.
We had over 200 guests at our wedding ceremony this weekend. 50% of those guests were from out of town. Considering that they had never experienced anything like when the band walked in they said that was the best part of the wedding. The band was absolutely wonderful.
I threw my brother a second line parade for his bachelor party and these guys crushed it. Highly recommended!
They are good sounding band, but felll short in timeliness by being late for a surprise entrance to my party. This was planned months in advance and was emphasized how important this surprise entrance. They were to dress in all black as their photo, that.didn't.happen. Maybe this was an isolated incident for them and may never happen again.
They gave a good performance overall.
Although you may be nervous about booking a band site unseen, this band was the real deal. Pretty much on-time, energetic, and professional. I loved not having to tell them what/which songs to play. They knew just what to do to make our reunion welcome night a success.
This band and experience blew my friends away! Band was very responsive, easy to work with and helped plan event. Great value on price. Highly recommend!
My group loved the Nola jazz
Everyone at our reception complemented the band on their sound and how they stole the show. They were a on time & very professional they made our wedding day truly something to remember.
Justin was very easy to work with and provided a great experience for the 2nd line!!! All of my guests kept commenting on how great they were!!!
Professional. On time. And AMAZING!!! Our wedding and parade was awesome with help from this amazing band!
Justin and the Krewe were fanastic. We did a second line in the bywater. It was AMAZING. Rain threatened our original location and the guys were on standby willing to move locations if we needed it. The skies cleared for them. They brought the heat. 💕
The "Where you at" band was great to work with and exceed our expectation with their talent. Great band to book and reasonable pricing!
These guys were fantastic and a lot of fun. Our guests said they were the highlight of our party. Justin was very easy to work with. I would highly recommend this band.
Where Y’At Brass Band was exceptional. They were easy to communicate with throughout the entire process and did an excellent job the day of the event. My guests had a great time. I will definitely be using again in the future.
Their sound, performance and professionalism was outstanding!
These guys were great to work with. They made life easy for us and brought so much fun and energy. It made the day perfect. We couldn’t have asked for more
These guys were AWESOME! Absolutely wonderful, really got our parade walkers engaged and they were incredibly talented. Cannot recommend these guys highly enough!
