We live in Tampa, FL and hired the Jonathan Moody band (Jonathan plus 3!) for my husband's 50th birthday party. The band was the HIT of the entire party! All night long, our guests were telling us how amazing the band was, and we saw people that we have NEVER seen dance or get loose before get totally loose and dance like crazy on the dance floor! It was such a great time - we had about 120 guests from ages late 20's to late 70's and even 80's and EVERYONE loved the band and had a blast! Jonathan Moody band made the party!!! Then, when the party wrapped up, instead of high-tailing it out of there, Jonathan and his band stayed and chit-chatted with us for a while and just made us feel like old friends. TEN stars!!!

Thanks, Jenny! It was an honor to be a part of your event! We had a great time and left with some new friends!
I had the pleasure of working with Jonathan Moody, and I would definitely book him again in the future. He has an incredible voice, and everyone absolutely loved his performance. In addition to his talent, he was exceptionally polite, punctual, and delivered an outstanding performance. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Chelsea! It was a pleasure working with you, and I’m thrilled everyone enjoyed the performance. I truly appreciate your recommendation and would love to work together again in the future!
I contacted Jonathan to play at a Celebration of Life to honor my friend's father. As soon as he got the request, he called me to learn more. I told him the event was to commemorate the incredible life of a father, friend. brother, and more. I told him this is a monumental loss for all who knew him, and we wanted the music to embody his memory. Jonathan immediately replied by sharing his passion for music and how it can be extremely healing for the heart during times of grief. Jonathan's performance brought an exceptional level of emotion and sensitivity to each song, creating an atmosphere of comfort and reflection. His voice, both powerful and soothing provided a sense of unity for all the attendees who were brought together in grief and love of a very special life.

Thank you for your kind words, Courtney and for allowing me to be part of such a special day. It was truly an honor to help honor his memory and bring comfort through music. I’m deeply grateful to have been able to share in such a meaningful moment!
This is the second time we have had Jonathan sing at our company reception held in conjunction with a international convention. He is very professional, has a good rapport with the audience and is very easy to work with. We look forward to the next time!

Jonathan is highly recommended.
His voice is wonderful and his repertoire huge. His music made the party a full success and he has a wonderful personality. You can truly see that music is his passion and he has played so fantastic. All my guests loved him and people who haven't danced in years went to the dance floor! Thank you, Jonathan!!!
We loved loved loved having Jonathan for my husband's surprise birthday party! The band played so many great songs and he just understood the group and played to their tastes! He brought people out on the dance floor and soooo many people complimented on how incredible they were. Our event would not have been what it was without him and the band and I would recommend him to anyone! Talented would be an understatement. Simply the best.
Jonathan was amazing! We just had him play for our ceremony and reception. He was awesome! Everyone came and stayed because they were all enjoying listening to him play all night. It was perfect(:

Response from Jonathan Moody:
Thank you for your wonderful review, Indy! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed the music throughout your ceremony and reception!
Absolutely incredible and literally exceeded every expectation. From song selection, to energy level, to communication and professionalism, Johnathan was flawless. The band had every age group packed onto the dance floor from start to finish for a solid three hours - dancing, air guitaring, belting lyrics, hoisting people in the air, and way way more. I'm probably bias, but they created the most incredible atmosphere of any wedding I’ve ever been to, plus Johnathan absolutely nailed our first dance song. Seriously can not say enough great things about this band and how genuine of a person Jonathan is. Might just have to throw another party to get them back out here :)

Response from Jonathan Moody:
Thank you so much for the amazing review, Ali! I’m thrilled to have been part of your special day, and it was an absolute pleasure to perform your first dance song. I’d love to be part of another celebration whenever you’re ready to throw one!
I can't say enough good things about this band! They were early showing up, and did EVERYTHING perfectly! For me, I'm reminded of Zach Brown Band when I hear their style, and their talent goes right along with it! I only wish I could have spent more time getting up close to hear them, but I'm thankful I was able to hear them throughout the venue. Am already looking to having them perform again next year. Thank you, Jonathan and company, for such a perfect performance. Would love to see you back soon! Margret

Thank you, Margret, for such a wonderful review! I truly appreciate your kind words and can’t wait for the opportunity to perform for you again!
Due to time constraints, we opted for a virtual concert for three hours for my daughter‘s 18th birthday. We worked with Jon on a playlist. I couldn’t believe when we got the virtual recording. Jon and his drummer Not only played great music but also really were genuine and heartfelt and their singing happy birthday songs to my daughter. The music from the playlist was a combination of country and other tunes and was exceptionally done. I would highly recommend John for any event. He has the ability to make you feel relaxed and comfortable all while playing amazing music.

Thank you so much Cristina!!! Can’t wait to play for you guys again!
Jonathan was a smashing hit at our event, and so kindly integrated our message into his performance. He worked really hard amidst a busy schedule to provide a really high quality performance for a virtual corporate conference for our customers, and everyone just loved it so much. Jonathan exceeded all our expectations, and is just such a great person overall. We can't wait to work together again!
We had Jonathan do a live virtual event for my work occasion and he was very responsive and professional.. He was really great to work with and very good about responding to questions and inquires leading up to the event. He made the event seem so personal and so special. The quality of the live event he used exceeded all expectations. Jonathan thank you for bringing joy to others and for making this event so amazing!

I talked with Jonathan about doing something special for a couple in my family for their anniversary. Jonathan kindly explained all the options he could offer to accommodate my needs. When the couple received their anniversary gift, they were thrilled; they absolutely loved it. Jonathan is a very nice person who is really talented. Book him! You won't be disappointed.

Thank you so much! It was a pleasure!
We had Jonathan do a pre-recorded virtual show for us for our friends 40th birthdays. We all love live music so much and figured given the times this would be the best way to bring live music to the party. He was really great to work with and very good about responding to questions and inquires leading up to the event. He made the event seem so personal and so special. The quality of the video he sent to us exceeded all expectations. The birthday boy and girl loved it and more particularly liked his rendition of every song. We hope to see him in person some day soon! Thank you so much Jonathan Moody for making this event so amazing!

Response from Jonathan Moody:
Thank you so much! You guys were great to work with as well and I’m so glad everyone enjoyed the virtual show! Hope to see you guys in person soon as well!
Jonathan was wonderful to work with for this surprise mini-concert even in short notice. Though it was virtual, it felt like we were there in the room with him. My friend was so touched and loved it! Jonathan is really talented, in both vocals and guitar. Once the virus clears up, we’ll be calling for a longer in person show!

Thank you so much for this awesome review! I’m so glad that she liked it! Please do reach out for any events, virtual or in person, that you need me (or the band) for!
It was great music and vive coming from his Stream performance. It was a great surprise for my wife's birthday. I highly recommend him to sing to anyone that loves live music 🎶.

Thank you Jose! I’m so happy to have been able to spend Sarah’s birthday with you guys virtually! I appreciate the review!!!
Jonathan Moody's performance was thoughtful, professional and first rate! I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Jonathan Moody provided a thoughtful and seemingly effortless virtual singing telegram for my adult daughter's birthday. Jonathan quickly produced a 3-song medley bracketed by personal comments gleaned by him from our brief telephone conversation. His country-style singing and guitar playing hit it out of the park for this occasion. I recommend him without reservation.

Response from Jonathan Moody:
Thank you so much Warren! So happy to create a special moment for you guys!
I wanted to find a special way to celebrate my husband's birthday. He loves live music and has really been missing it with the current shelter-in-place situation. Then I thought, "what if I bring the concert to him?!" I found Jonathan through this site and his play list and style lined up perfectly with music we love. Jonathan was incredibly responsive to all my questions and he helped me put together a surprise virtual concert that wowed my husband. I worried it would feel cheesy or low quality but this was definitely not the case. His equipment was fantastic and the show felt like watching a real concert - just on our TV from the comfort of our living room (maybe we should do this more often!?!). He even sang Happy Birthday. The whole event was great. I would highly recommend Jonathan for any event and would encourage anyone to consider creative solutions like this for some fun entertainment. It's also a great way to support artists!

What a nice review! Thank you so much! I would love to do another one for you guys!
Jonathan and his violinist performed at our wedding October 5, 2019 in San Antonio. It was a very intimate wedding (less than 30) and they fit the bill perfectly. He even had my 10 year old nephew come up and play his guitar when he found out he was into music as well. Such a sweet moment. We couldn't have asked for a better time and are super glad we decided on a live band even though none of us were big dancers. It set the tone of the night and we received compliments from everyone on their performance.
Acoustic Band
Jonathan and his band mates did a fantastic job playing for a grand opening party I hosted back in February 2019. The song set was broad and covered many decades which is perfect for all crowds. The guys are personable, down to earth and worth taking time to get to know. I will book them again!

I hired Jonathan earlier this week for a corporate event in Dallas, TX. With HQ in Arizona, the entire event was planned remotely which can cause some heartburn, especially when booking live entertainment. Having had both good and bad experiences in the past, I usually enter a little skeptical and almost solely have to rely on their business acumen as the initial indicator. Jonathan not only drips with talent but he is prompt, professional, responsive, flexible, and eager/willing to please. He went above and beyond for our event (and our group in general) and what we took home was more than exceeded expectations but memories our team will cherish for years to come.
If you're considering Jonathan, jump at the opportunity. He literally IS your event.
If there were more stars, I would select them. He was Fantastic!!!
Corporate Entertainment, Guitarist
Wow!!!
That is the very first thing that comes to mind while I begin this review.
I am still floating on cloud-9 from our fabulous weekend... and a big part of that feeling was the addition of Jonathan and his amazing talents.
Jonathan was the right guy for the job to play and sing live for our pre-ceremony, ceremony, and cocktail hour!! He was on-point for every second and interacting with him was Super stress-free, which I appreciate even more than words can explain!
Jonathan was all the below and more:
Talented
Punctual
Flexible
Great Communicator
Harmonically-rich
Highly Recommended
Beautiful
Peaceful
Entertaining
Perfect!
There isn't anything I would change about Jonathan and his addition to our special day! I can't wait to see our wedding video, so I am able to re-appreciate his talents and the mood he set to kick off a beautiful celebration of love and life, and our own happily-forever-after.
So, thank you again, Jonathan!!

Jonathon Moody was recommended by Lottie Fowler(Grit+Gold Events) and he did not disappoint! Live music makes for a good party and Jonathon Moody and his band made for a GREAT party! The 20 somethings all they way to up to 80 years plus were having fun on the dance floor! Jonathon’s band ROCKED Villa del Lago over Lake Travis! We contracted for an extra hour on the early side of our party; if we were not limited by an outdoor sound ordinance, we would have paid his band off to keep playing as our crowd chanted 2 more songs over and over! Jonathon, at special request learned a few new songs for the bride and groom and they were perfectly awesome! Thank you Jonathon Moody Band!
True musicians, great vocals with a super sound! Book this band for a lot of fun!

We decided to book Jonathan Moody to play at our wedding after stumbling across them on YouTube and it was one of the best decisions we made! Jonathan was always available if we had questions, easy to work with, and helped make everything run seamlessly; even our wedding planner said they were one of the best bands she's ever worked with. Our guests still talk about how great they were and my husband and I are already looking for a reason to hire them again.
If you are looking for a band that is great to work with and will have your guests on their feet dancing all night, look no further!

The Jonathan Moody band by far is my all time best find! We hope they can play every year for us. From Acoustic, Country, Rock, Classic Rock- you name it they can play it better than imaginable. Jonathan was wonderful to work with!

Jonathan was so easy to work with. He is very dependable. Not only did he pick up on what we were looking for, he recommended what pieces should play. He also learned a song for our bride/groom dance. He made our night so special and our guests loved it! If you want a laid back, kick back, easy going band... this is for you.
Wedding Band, Cover Band
I would recommend Jonathan Moody to anyone looking for a band for an event or wedding! Everyone in the band was so polite, professional, punctual and TALENTED. For weeks my guests raved about how wonderful the band was! It was perfect to see everyone out on the dance floor connecting with the band right up until the reception was over!
Wedding Band
Jonathan Moody Band played for my daughter's backyard wedding in Dallas in October 2017. Jonathan's music range with the ability to provide a personal playlist was appealing to us and we loved listening to his various styles of music in choosing his band as well as the night of the wedding. We had a four-piece band for 3 hours of great music, dancing and listening for all who attended. Jonathan is extremely professional and communicative both during the booking as well as the performance. His band exceeded our expectations in every way and are also great fun! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Bluegrass Band, Classic Rock Band, Wedding Band
We loved having Jonathan play at our wedding. Everyone was dancing and had a lot of fun. We were really impressed. They also played for our ceremony and I was thrilled to have him. They really created a great atmosphere and helped make the day so special. Couldn't have asked for more from Jonathan!

Jonathan and his band were top notch and great to work with for our outdoor corporate event.

The entire evening was a great success, in no small part to the Jonathan Moody Band. They played a wide selection of music, which was important as we had a mixed crowd of various age groups. They were professional during the entire process and would love to work with the group again.

Jonathan was a true pleasure to work with -- everything from booking and communication prior to the event -- to arriving on time day-of and putting on a great show! I hired Jonathan for a corporate event and he was the perfect fit for the crowd. His set list was great --- songs you can sing along to and created an overall great vibe for the night! Would highly recommend Jonathan and look forward to working with him again on future events!

Jonathan was very communicative and absolutely killed our corporate event! He performs a great variety of songs and kept everyone entertained. Can't wait to hire him again!

The only regret I have over Jonathan performing during our wedding day cocktail hour is that I couldn't spend more time listening to him! My husband and I spent hours upon hours searching for the right fit for the vibe we wanted for our cocktail reception outside - laid back yet still high energy and someone who could play a wide range of songs/styles etc. Jonathan fit the bill there and I'm just trying to figure out which of my friends can hire him so I can sit down and enjoy his music!
He has an incredible voice and on top of that he's just the nicest guy. We loved getting to know him on the phone and he flew in from Texas to our wedding in Carmel, CA. What I loved most is that all of the pricing for his travel and extras such as additional musician were all built into his original quote. Made it so easy to work with him!
Finally - I have to say that our wedding day was one of the hottest on record - 110 degrees! In spite of that, Jonathan set up in the shade, played for a few hours and was still happy, smiling and professional even in an incredibly hot environment. We loved working with him and I really hope I get to see him play again soon!

Jonathan Moody and his band were not only exceptional to listen to, but to work with as well. They have preformed at multiple corporate events of ours, and we plan to use them again in the future. They set the tone of our events, providing family friendly cover music to over 1,000+ guests and we are so thankful to have them as a partner. They travel to any city we need them to, making it one less thing we have to worry about as we know they will deliver and are a partner we can trust. I highly recommend Jonathan for any event you may be having!

Jonathan and the band did a great job at our corporate event. People stuck around far after the event was supposed to end just to enjoy the music!

Jonathan and his band were an absolute hit at my wedding. He was exactly what I was looking for! I had SO MANY people compliment how wonderful they sounded. They played beautiful acoustics as I walked down the aisle. It was such a nice touch to have live music. Jonathan was great at keeping the reception lively and he very entertaining. Jonathan was very personable and very easy to work with, he asked me what I was looking for and delivered much more than I expected. I would hire him again in a heartbeat, he was OUTSTANDING!

I am so happy I hired Jonathan. He was able to learn and perform all the songs I needed. I highly recommend him. Thanks to him, I was able to propose to my girlfriend in a memorable and meaningful way.

The Bluegrass trio that Jonathan put together for our trade show was perfect. All three musicians were very talented and provided a great atmosphere for our party on the patio theme.

This guy is awesome! Not only does Jonathan have a fantastic voice & great musical talents, he's honest, professional, punctual, reliable, flexible, easy-going, sociable, & FUN! We were afraid we would have to resort to an iPad for our wedding ceremony music, but Jonathan came through for us at the last minute & we're so glad he did! He did a fantastic job during the ceremony--music was beautiful, timing was perfect, setup was great! We couldn't have asked for more.
Also, he totally fit in with our crowd! Since all of our friends & family loved him so much, we wound up coaxing him into staying for the dinner & reception. We even put him on the spot to sing karaoke and play our father/daughter/mother/son song, and he totally went along with it! Talk about easy going!! Jonathan, we thank you so much for making our wedding day personalized and special. We consider you a friend of ours, and we hope you reach out to us the next time you're in town. Thanks again for everything!!!

We hired the full band plus fiddler to play at our wedding reception. They put on a great show, and we received so many compliments. The band was so easy to work with and I couldn't be happier with their performance. My husband and I had wanted something different from the standard DJs or typical wedding band for our wedding. We were originally worried that a country band could be risky for getting people dancing at a wedding reception, but these guys were awesome!! They played a great mix of Texas country, country, pop covers, and the classics. They also played a couple of great songs that hadn't been on their song list that I loved (particularly Copperhead Road and some Thomas Rhett). They had people on their feet dancing, and they were such a huge part of making our wedding reception everything we wanted. When our reception ended, no one wanted to get off the dance floor! They looked great, sounded great, and were honestly a steal for the price. I highly recommend the Jonathan Moody Band.

Mr. Moody is professional and extremely nice. A true pleasure working with him at our private event. He sounds great and knows how to keep the guest entertained and engaged. Thank you so much for coming out and we look forward to working with you again the future.

These guys played the launch party at The Whitehall Houston Hotel 4/14/2016. There were awesome! They played outside with a bluegrass feel and everyone was talking about how great they were. They later played in the restaurant and mixed up all types of music. We had so much fun listening to them!

Johnathan and his band played at our July wedding in Breckenridge Colorado. We decided to go with a band very last minute so we were very nervous we were not going to find a great band. My husband spoke to Jonathan on the phone and instantly knew he was our guy. So nice and professional! Our wedding day would not have complete without this band. Our guest could not stop dancing! All night long I had people coming up and asking me where we found them because they were so impressed! Despite the 10:00 noise cutoff Jonathan and his band played a few more songs because our guest couldn't get enough. And I must mention, our wedding was at 10,000 ft elevation, so the air was a little thinner and these guys still rocked it! To this day our guest still talk about them! They were the nicest group of guys, and I hope to one day book them again! Thank you Jonathan Moody Band for the best wedding entertainment ever (and putting up with my "overly fun" mom) :)

Jonathan did an amazing performance at our outdoor family festival. He was a solo guitarist and came prepared with a wide repertoire of pop and country music. He was dressed appropriately for the event and brought all his own equipment. He was gracious to guests who asked for special requests. The audience was enthralled by his voice during the 3-hour event.
In addition to being a wonderful musician, I really appreciated his professionalism throughout the whole experience. He returned messages on the same day, usually within an hour. He was also accessible by text. On the day of the event, he called to tell us there was a bit of traffic, but he still arrived 30 minutes early. When we had to reschedule our original event date due to thunderstorms, he worked within our budget to provide some alternative setups. My recommendation to people who are using GigSalad to find performers is this: musical talent is important, but you also want to work with a professional business person who signs contracts, returns calls, and treats you like a customer. Jonathan Moody is that whole package. We will definitely ask him to perform again at our next event!
Singing Guitarist
We hired Jonathan and his band for our wedding. He was more organized than I was and able to quickly improvise when I forgot things. He was a super fun addition to our wedding and helped make it a wonderful event that all ages enjoyed - everyone (I wanted to capitalize that but that's not allowed

Jonathan Moody was so personable and professional from start to finish. We had a 4 piece acoustic play at our private wedding celebration. They were amazing. The sound was phenomenal and our guests were blown away. They played a great selection and took requests from our guests. Everyone just loved them. It made for such a memorable experience for that day. I would highly recommend them if you want someone who is talented and sounds so great live. We booked online with him and were not able to link up to a show to see him. We did our research and watched/listened to his music on his website and on YouTube. We couldn't have found a better band to play for us. We love live music and I felt like he covered alternative new to old classics. It really was amazing and the perfect fit for our celebration. I highly recommend them. You won't be disappointed.

I am a wedding planner for Casa Mariposa Venue & Villas, an AMAZING destination wedding venue on South Padre Island. Our bride wanted something unique and special for her wedding band. The Jonathan Moody Band came through with flying colors. They were professional and the music was perfect! Jonathan was a joy to work with. We hope next time we book the band, they get to stay the weekend and play on the island with us! -Ana Covey
We hired Jonathan to perform for us during our wedding ceremony in Orlando, Florida. We have nothing but praise for Jonathan, not only was he extremely professional, but he is an exceptionally talented performer. He even learnt a specific song we requested for our wedding. Without a doubt I would highly recommend Jonathan and I hope there is an opportunity for us to book him again in the future.

Jonathan's band performed at our wedding and did an outstanding job. His music includes alternative, classics, and country, all with his own Texas style. They were on time, communicated well, and exceeded all of our expectations. Definitely made an impact on the entire night and we are so happy to have included such an amazing band on our special day!

Jonathan played the cocktail hour(s) at our wedding. He was incredibly fair on pricing, and most importantly was tremendous. It was the part of our wedding people commented on the most, and we still have folks asking us how we found him. Literally sounded as good as the real thing (better in some cases). I really couldn't have asked for anything more. We will absolutely use him again in the future when we have an excuse to!
Not sure if I'm able to act as a reference through the site but if so I'm happy to.

I can't say enough good things about Jonathan and his band! I live in Colorado and found him on this website as a featured performer. After visiting his website and hearing some of his original music, my wife and I knew he'd be the perfect fit to play our wedding. My only advice to Jonathan would be to upload some more videos of him playing so people can get a better idea of his breadth. He really can play anything.
From the first time I reached out to Jonathan to the first time I actually met him (shortly before our wedding), he was extremely responsive and professional. He tailored his band to our needs and budget, bringing a 4-piece acoustic band - Jonathan on guitar, a violinist, lead guitar, and percussionist. He even offered to bring all sound and lighting equipment, however our venue had that installed. Once we realized we didn't have music for our private ceremony before the reception, we reached out to Jonathan a couple nights before. "No problem" was a text I received from Jonathan about a dozen times. He is extremely easy to work with. Have a Bridezilla on your hands (or are one yourself)? "No problem".
Jonathan's music definitely focuses on the folk/americana/country feel, but he played a wide variety of music. Check out his set list on his website for an idea of some of his songs. From the classic interpretation of "Wagon Wheel" to Frank Sinatra and AC/DC...Jonathan put on an amazing show.
With the smaller band, Jonathan was even able to take requests from our wedding guests and just roll with it. He knows how to read a crowd, and played the perfect mix of intimate songs and dance hits. He kept the party going the whole time, and I can't thank Jonathan enough for playing our wedding. I just hope he had as much fun as our friends and family!
For anyone looking for a great live show, I highly recommend Jonathan. Not only is he an amazing musician, he's just a genuinely nice guy who was a pleasure to work with. I hope I have the opportunity to book him for other personal or corporate events - I'm not sure his schedule will allow with all the referrals he surely got from our wedding!
My only advice is to not think twice and to book Jonathan. I know it can be very nerve wracking to book the centerpiece of your event without seeing him live, but I have ZERO regrets from doing so. Thanks for making the night special, Jonathan!

We booked Jonathan's 4-piece band for our backyard wedding & reception (roughly 100 guests), and these guys were totally worth it. They're a busy group, but if I called/texted/emailed, Jonathan always got back to me as soon as possible. They arrived on-time for our event and were set up and picking within ~20 minutes. We just had a small area for them with stools and a power outlet and they did the rest. We actually had them up next to the groomsmen to play some great acoustic stuff as guests were being seated, then they played the wedding party up & down the aisle. We even had a family member sing a song with them before the readings and it was beautiful. After the ceremony, they moved back to the reception area and were back to playing within minutes. They're really great at adapting to any mood or situation (even a medical emergency we had), and have a broad range of genres they can cover, though we were all really enjoying the country/folk rock stuff. To this day, friends and family still say the band really made the event. Finding Jonathan Moody really took a big chunk of stress out of our planning process. Do yourself a favor: book these guys if you can and cross the music off your "to do" list. Search YouTube for some wedding footage I'll post, as well as his other stuff!

My husband and I hosted an engagement party for our best friends that turned out to be a total blowout that people are still discussing 9 months later. Jonathan and his guys came in and rocked to a crowd of 100 people ages 25-65 with everyone dancing on their feet. Not only do they have an incredible list of covers, but they have an original style, hearts of gold and truly put on a professional, authentic and original performance. From the booking, to their lighting guys that transformed our backyard, these guys are IT. SOLID!!!! Allie and Jay Fields

We have been hosting the Symphony League of Beaumont Debutante Ranch Party at our ranch for 15 years. We wanted to hire a live band for our upscale country themed party. We chose the Jonathan Moody Band on GigSalad. Jonathan immediately responded, and sent me an example of their music. Luckily for us, they were performing in Houston, Texas on Saturday. He agreed to drive an hour and a half on Sunday afternoon to play for our arriving guests. We placed his band on the back of our old red pickup located in our outside pavilion. They are wonderful!! They truly set the perfect mood for our event. Everyone was so impressed by their talent, professionalism, and down to earth personalities. Jonathan's band not only played the perfect mix of country, but also included any top pop requests that our Debutantes and dates wanted to hear. We are so impressed with their wide range of music options. We have booked them to attend the upcoming Debutante Ranch Party in October of 2015. Jonathan and his band are extremely talented. We are excited to hear how well they are progressing in the music scene. We are lucky to be able to have them perform again this year. We highly recommend this wonderfully talented group of performers for any event. We are willing to be contacted for a personal recommendation anytime!
Country Band
How does one begin to say how grateful we are to have found and chosen The Jonathan Moody Band for our House Party in Rio Verde, AZ. Jonathan is a professional and promptly answered all our questions prior to the event. He and the band members. David and Jonah, had everything they needed for their show and asked very little of us. Plus, they had all their equipment set up well before the start of the party. Once the music began we knew the party had started! The band played a perfect mix of tunes that got everyone in the mood. Along with the tacos and margaritas, the night was certainly one to remember. The rave reviews for the band kept coming and the music made our party one that this neighborhood won't soon forget. Many guests are already thinking of ways to get the band back to Rio Verde! If you have any reservations about hiring the Jonathan Moody Band... push them aside. You can't go wrong with them.

Jonathan was very responsive to communication and accomodating with timing and pricing. He is a very talented and versatile musician who interacted well with my party guests and easily took everyone's requests. I would not hesitate to book him again.

Jonathan and David joined us for a small gathering at our ranch in Bandera. It was a delightful afternoon with great music. Jonathan was so very personable and interactive with our group. He has great talent and was able to entertain our group of all ages. David (fiddle player) was also very talented added a wonderful touch to the show. I would highly recommend this group and look forward to a return performance.

We are an out of town bride and groom, we hired Jonathan unseen, unheard, unspoken to...and it was the best thing we could do! Leading up to the wedding he was communicative, able to work with us on budget and he just seemed like a really cool, nice, genuine guy. The day of the wedding he was on time, professional, learned a song and rehearsed it with our singer. He was approachable, chatted and laughed with guests young and old and was a highlight of the whole day. We hired him for pre-ceremony and ceremony, and our cocktail hour, as a very last minute thing and I am so, so, so happy we did. I cannot tell you enough, having that live music added so much to our wedding. Lots of people commented on him, enjoyed him and my husband was up there singing with him.
My only regret is we couldn't afford to hire him to play the whole reception, I think that would have been even better and totally awesome. Don't hesitate to book this guy, he is very talented. Thanks for doing a wonderful job for us!

Our office scheduled an open house/anniversary party for our clients to view our office and also celebrate having an office in San Antonio for 10 years. We catered food out on the patio and Jonathan was a wonderful addition to our event. He had a play list that guests could request from and it included a little something for everyone. He was very personable and everyone that attended enjoyed the experience. We heard compliments for weeks after the event that included how much they enjoyed the music. Even now as we plan for the coming year, and the potential for a yearly open house, many still bring up how fantastic Jonathan was and how much his presence added to our event.
Singing Guitarist
I hired Jonathan based on reviews and the phone call I had with him regarding the music we were looking for. He was very friendly, accommodating, and delivered exactly what he promised. The event was for a professional business crowd on the opening night of a conference, and we received nothing but compliments. Everyone was happy to hear such a variety of music that seemed to fit everyone's tastes. We could not have asked for a better experience and are looking to hire Jonathan and his band again for our company's holiday party!

My company just celebrated an anniversary and hosted an open house on the patio of our building. Jonathan arrived on time, he was flexible with setup area and he played wonderfully. A lot of our attendees made requests from his versatile playlist. This was the first time I had ever booked entertainment and Jonathan was quick to reply and discuss event details to make sure he created the right setting. Our location and food were great but Jonathan rounded out our event to make it special for our clients.

The Jonathan Moody Band not only played my wedding but also my daughter's life celebration. When he plays everyone is dancing and singing along.... you would be crazy not to book him!

Jonathan Moody recently played at my wedding ceremony and reception. He did an awesome job! From the very beginning of the wedding planning through the day of he was professional, easy to contact for questions or changes, and overall great to work with. I did not know him prior to the event but it didn't matter. I felt like he took my wedding as serious as he would a family member or friend. He was punctual, took requests from the guests, even personally downloaded the Aggie War Hymn at the reception when I realized it hadn't made my playlist. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with him, not to mention his voice is amazing and he can play ANYTHING! Awesome, great, fantastic! I would definitely recommend him to anyone and everyone.

What to Expect
What you can expect as an audience member when you hire Jonathan to play at an event varies quite a bit. He caters the setup of his solo performance or a band and the type of music for the feel of each specific event. Some events want Jonathan and his guitar or a couple of acoustic instruments to play background music that is just easy to listen to and creates a relaxed atmosphere. Some want music cranked up by the full blown band that makes them want to dance. Some want a little of both or something in between. Either way, the goal is to create the atmosphere that each client is looking for at their event. That can be expected at each event that Jonathan is a part of.

Testimonials
Jonathan Moody is my number one contact when we need music for an event at the Hyatt Wild Oak Ranch. He is very kind and professional, brings his own set up and equipment and he takes all types of requests from our guests and will play it on the spot. Besides being professional he has a great voice and I personally have used him the last three years for any type of music event. I now use him at the Hyatt Wild Oak Ranch. our guests love him and I will always go to Jonathan first for any type of live music we made need here at our property. I highly recommend Jonathan for any type of music event!

We first heard Jonathan play at a venue in San Antonio and were amazed at his range and talent. Also, the fans started lining up and stayed for his entire set. We booked him and his band for our charity event in Dallas and were glad we did. In addition to his great original songs, he and his band have an extensive setlist perfect for acoustic and live shows. We had quite a range of people from old to young with various musical tastes, and everyone really enjoyed his music and had a great time. Hope to book him again, if he’s not touring or in Nashville!

The Jonathan Moody Band was awesome! Their music got our attendees up on the dance floor almost immediately, they were able to read the crowd on the tunes and type of music they enjoyed, and the band members became part of our family for that evening.
I highly recommend this band to any event planner that needs a band/music for one of their corporate events – no matter where your meeting might take place!

Dear Fellow Meeting and Event Planners:
I planned a conference in Scottsdale, AZ that required a country band for one of our evening events. After listening to the many groups recommended by the hotel and event company, I could not find a group that satisfied me. One of our VP’s commented in passing, that it was a shame we “couldn’t get that guy from Texas that plays in the lounge at the Westin La Cantera in San Antonio. He has the best voice I’ve heard, but he doesn’t sing country.” That was the lead I needed!
I contacted the Westin, got in touch with Jonathan Moody, and found that he not only sang country, rock, etc., but he also had a band. After exchanging numerous calls and videos, we booked Jonathan and his band, flew them to Arizona, ended up paying less than the groups that had been recommended, and our attendees had the time of their lives. The band even worked with our management team in their line dance performance!

Dear Jonathan,
Thank you for playing such an important role in the success of the 93rd Annual NFHS Summer Meeting in Nashville. Your participation in our event not only added entertainment value but enhanced the quality of the conference.
You were excellent to work with from the start. We appreciate your professionalism and eagerness to play for our group. During scheduled performance times, you were always punctual and prepared. You had a great attitude and remained composed during high stress situations.

But – possibly more importantly – he is extremely easy to work with. Flexible, responsive, punctual, and professional. I always know that I can count on him and don’t have to worry that he will follow through with everything as promised. As an event planner for both corporate and non-profit events, this makes my job that much less complicated. I would use Jonathan and his band at every event if I could."

"Jonathan Moody is a clean, consummate professional and always set up and started on time for corporate events. His sets are clever and varied and he engaged the crowd and got them dancing, even at stuffy country clubs! His country look belies his knowledge of many genres, this boy can rock too! I would highly recommend booking his talented band for your party, they will not disappoint!"
