The Matt Winter band was amazing for our wedding day. Our beach ceremony and reception was canceled less the 24 hours before due to hurricane Ian. When I called the band manager, Sara, in tears to let her know we had to move our ceremony to our backyard instead, with no reception, that we didn’t need the band anymore. DuringThe Matt Winter band was amazing for our wedding day. Our beach ceremony and reception was canceled less the 24 hours before due to hurricane Ian. When I called the band manager, Sara, in tears to let her know we had to move our ceremony to our backyard instead, with no reception, that we didn’t need the band anymore. During our conversation I said to her “they don’t make house calls do they?” She laughed and asked what do you mean? I told her it was a joke and was seeing if they’d still come to our home and play and before I could finish my sentence, Sara said “oh absolutely. They play at peoples houses all the time, if that’s what you want, when do you want us there?”. Once Matt and his band arrived they were nothing but kind. Most of our guests were scared off by the weather and after we said “I do” everyone left except for our small wedding party of 3 people. Matt and his band ROCKED OUT for the full 4 hours to 5 of us. But you wouldn’t know it because they made us feel like a crowd of 500!! I will forever be thankful for what they did for us and I will absolutely be hiring them to play in our backyard again one day!! They are very talented musicians!! Thank you Matt Winter Band!!

The choice to go with a band vs a DJ was the best decision I made. Everyone enjoyed the music and danced at every opportunity. The Saxaphone during the cocktail hour was amazing, it allowed everyone the ability to mingle and get to know each other or catch up with those they already knew.

I will defiantly reach out again to the Matt Winter Band, when I have another event. I will also tell my friends about the band if they are looking for music for an event. Thank you for the extra wow that my event needed.

After Matt performed at our wedding we knew we were in for another amazing performance at a milestone birthday party. MWB knocked it out of the park and blew us and our guests away! Not only are they amazing, talented musicians; but they are great people who’s only goal is to please you and your guests however they can.

We will certainly reach out to MWB for any future live music needs; I’d give them 6 stars if I could!

We LOVED Matt Winter Band. Having never seen them perform and booking them based off of recommendations we were a little nervous. But, they BLEW us away. They sounded amazing, were super interactive and let our friends and family have a karaoke session- HA! The band was super nice and took song recommendations- everyone loved them and not one personWe LOVED Matt Winter Band.

Matt Winter Band performed at our wedding on 4/29/23 for our ceremony with violin, Matt solo on guitar for cocktail hour and the full band for the reception.

Matt Winter Band is the best of the best! We knew going into our Big Day to expect great things from them – and they still managed to exceed all expectations! Between their great song selection and high energy entertaining, they had our guests of all ages dancing all night long.

We knew going into our Big Day to expect great things from them – and they still managed to exceed all expectations! Between their great song selection and high energy entertaining, they had our guests of all ages dancing all night long. Despite our wedding day also being the day Hurricane Nicole landed in Tampa Bay, the band didn’t skip a beat. Additionally, Matt Winter’s expertise helped guide us with A/V decisions for our multi-room reception layout to ensure guests had high quality sound no matter which room they were in. If you like jazz, we also STRONGLY recommend addition of saxophone player — not only did he provide great background music at during cocktail hour and dinner, but also serenaded my husband and I on the dance floor during our private last dance (a truly “WOW” moment). Matt Winter Band truly took our magical day to the next level, and our guests are STILL talking about them!

We had many guests tell us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and Matt Winter Band was the main reason! They kept the dance floor packed all night long, and the musicians were incredibly talented. We can’t thank them enough! We had many guests tell us it was the best wedding they’ve ever been to, and Matt Winter Band was the main reason!

Words cannot express how amazing Matt Winter and his band are in every way. Top talent and professionalism. Matt sang solo at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour. Our wedding was at Opal Sands Resort in Clearwater Beach. We had the band play at our wedding reception and we also got the photo booth through them.

Our wedding was at Opal Sands Resort in Clearwater Beach. We had the band play at our wedding reception and we also got the photo booth through them. My guests cannot stop talking about how amazing their team member running the Photo Booth was and how great the band performed. I was referred by a friend that had hired Matt in the past for a corporate event. His team was so responsive and extremely helpful before and after the event, I was so impressed by them and if you are contemplating making the investment in live music,Photo Booth or anything else… they are the absolute best!
