Chicago Greek-American Band Performed for Hellenic League Debutante Cotillion and Crystal Ball at Chicago Hilton and Towers

Chicago Hilton & Towers

We were absolutely honored to provide entertainment for the Hellenic League Debutante Cotillion and Crystal Ball. There were so many amazing moments, from the presentation of the Debutantes and their Escorts by emcee Kim Vatis, to their choreographed trip through the history of Hollywood, to a killer dance party that catapulted the night into an after-party. We had a ball and can’t wait to do it all over again 🙂

We decided to play some Greek music too, it’s this little hobby we have. All we do is add a few Greek musicians to our rhythm section, and BOOM. Greek.

Hello out there!

Although this wonderful wedding got buried on our to-do list for the past several months, we’re so happy to share it with you now!

Dancing started with this tune:

And then all bets were off. Maggie and Dean’s guests came to party!

This one deserves its own post. Great new tune, and Barry & Dayna sound fantastic on it, don’t you think?

Always a fantastic time to visit our Alma Mater and perform! Here’s the very cool space for Abby & John’s wedding dinner

After a beautiful meal, guests transitioned into the domed space for dancing, and we had a blast.

This Bruno Mars tune knocked us out when we heard it on Saturday Night Live a couple of weeks ago. Here’s our first time though it — what do you think? Our guess is that this is going to be the hottest new tune of the year. WE LOVE IT!!

It’s not very often when the GROOM sits in with us – how cool is this?! Yeah John!

Chicago Wedding Band Performed for Kassandra & Brian’s Wedding at The Art Institute’s Stock Exchange Trading Room

We’re always humbled and honored to be chosen by each and every one of our couples. When we’re chosen multiple times by the same family, it’s an extra-special honor. And, when we’re chosen by a bride who is a professional percussionist and a groom who is a recording engineer, it’s pretty much the ultimate compliment. That’s why Kassandra and Brian’s wedding was so special to us. With the Stock Exchange Trading Room filled with musicians from around the globe, this was a fabulous celebration.

We were thrilled to work with Sara from Five Grain Events. The entire planning process was smooth as silk and every single detail was expertly attended to. Can’t wait to work with you again Sara!

Delighted to get this note from Kassandra a few weeks after the wedding:

Hi Chris,

THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH for everything during our wedding. You guys sounded amazing and went above and beyond! I keep hearing from everyone how great you were. I couldn’t have asked for a better band to have at our wedding. As you could tell, I barely left the dance floor, which I think is always a great sign. From one musician to another, I thank you for making one of the most important parts of my wedding absolutely perfect!

All the best,

Kassandra

We loved playing some traditional Greek music for them. Take a peek!
