Spontaneous moments at weddings can be the best!
This August, our wedding band Closing Time treated guests to a super fun and spontaneous surprise when the groom jumped on stage with them to perform Def Leppard’s 80s metal hit “Pour Som Sugar on Me.” The band hadn’t performed the song in a while. But when the best man told them that it was the groom’s go-to karaoke song,…

We had an amazing time! The dance floor ended up being too small because of the energy that Julio brought. Being a wedding between an Irish and a Peruvian family, the music played spanned genres, decades and languages – the transitions were one of one. Aside from the music, Julio helped MC the event as well, periodically checking in with us, helping organize extended family photos during cocktail hour and ensuring that he made the right choice as to when to start the music given that the dinner service was a bit behind. Would 1000% recommend Julio Garcia and Murray Hill Talent again!

Amazing! Super easy to work with, great performers, and they read the crowd perfectly. Our guests were on the dance floor all night—couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Jett Barnes crushed it as our DJ, all of our guests had such a fun time on the dancefloor thanks to Jett keeping the vibes high throughout the night. Both the live band and Jett were so easy to communicate with. We dicussed the plan for the night over the phone about 1 week out from the big day so I had no worries the day of the wedding. The music throughout the night flowed so seemlessly! I would reccomend Murray Hill Talent to anyone looking for live music or an awesome DJ to make their wedding vision come to life!
Alice Mitchell, 8.30.25 wedding at Spruce Peak in Stowe, VT -
Closing Time was absolutely phenomenal at our wedding. From planning with Ryan, the band’s manager, to the song selections, lighting, and sound, everything was top quality. The band members are all very talented and professional. Our guests could not stop talking about how amazing Closing Time was. If we could give more than five stars, we would. The dance floor was packed the entire night. The variety of songs, the seamless transitions, and the overall ambience that Closing Time brings is unmatched. Thank you so much for making our ceremony and reception so incredible!Cassie

Closing Time was absolutely amazing! They sounded great live and kept the energy up all night. Their setlist was the perfect mix of classics and crowd-pleasers. Beyond their amazing performance, they were also total professionals, easy to work with, organized, and clearly experienced with weddings. They made everything feel seamless and stress-free. We got so many compliments from guests about how great the band was. They truly elevated the whole experience and helped make the night unforgettable!
Kendra & Nick, 8.23.25 wedding at the ICA, Boston -
Best band ever!!!! It is already a month after our wedding and our guests are still talking about how awesome Closing Time was. They brought the party all night long! Their song choices and high energy performance are unmatched! The dance floor was packed all night! They were also so easy to work with. The week before the wedding we had a great phone call to go over every detail of the wedding from start to finish – they were willing to try every idea we had and made sure to include songs that were important to us. They were flexible with us day of, allowing us to walk up and ask them to do things during the night such as announce our T- Shirt toss when we were ready. I could not recommend them more for an unforgettable night!
