A family friend who used to work weddings highly recommended Murray Hill Talent to us. We spoke to a few of their DJs, and every single one was responsive and professional. At our wedding, Brendan was incredible! He kept everyone dancing, even across multiple generations of guests. He was wonderfully calm and easy to work with, both leading up to the wedding and day-of. We really appreciated how organized he was, and how helpful he was walking us through all the decisions around introductions, announcements, and dances.
Ben Navetta, 11.12.22 wedding at Pine Manor College, Chestnut Hill, MA -
We highly recommend Murray Hill!! We had the honor of Dakeya Christmas DJ’ing our wedding. People could not wait to get to the dance floor and once the dancing portion of the evening began, it was packed until the very end!! I truly haven’t seen such an engaged crowd at any other wedding I’ve been to. Guests across all ages & dancing comfort levels had the best time. DJ’ing is one of those wedding decisions where you really have to put faith in the vendor you select and you can’t really preview the experience until the day of. That’s what made Dakeya so wonderful — we felt great trust in his ability to create an unforgettable evening of music. He listened carefully to us about all our needs & the outcome exceeded our expectations. Look no further than Murray Hill Talent & Dakeya!

We found Murray Hill Talent through our venue, Regatta Place, and we are so grateful that we did. Knowing that we were looking for a band, they had some great selections to choose from and we ended up going with Redline – which are the absolute best of the best! First of all, one of their lead singers Ellie is a true powerhouse of vocals, fun, and could keep the party going! Cory in the main office, and Ken the band leader helped immensely with organization, timeline for the evening, and keeping it all running smoothly. The whole Redline band was absolutely incredible and we got some many compliments from our guests on how great they were! Thank you to all of the band members for a fabulous wedding party!

We had a great experience working with Murray Hill Talent for our wedding. We were paired with Sam as our DJ, and he was excellent! He took the time to listen to our requests and adjust his plan based on our feedback. The music he played was great and really kept the energy up for our entire reception.
Dana Gottlieb, 10.15.22 wedding at Museum of Science, Boston -
We booked the Twilight Quartet for our wedding and could not have been happier with the service provided by both the musicians and Murray Hill Talent. Everyone we worked with was super responsive and easy to work with. Guests loved that we opted for a less traditional jazz quartet — it really set the mood! Highly recommend them.
Abbi Matheson, 10.01.22 wedding at Fridley Crossways, Harvard, MA -
Ken and the whole Redline team were incredible for our wedding back in August. They went the extra mile to make sure they had everything ready to go on our wedding way, and it was all executed flawlessly. We’ve received so many compliments about how incredible the band was and are so thankful we found them! I highly recommend Redline to anyone looking to have the dance floor filled all night!!!
