What Clients Are Saying
The Source - absolutely incredible!
Choosing Washington Talent Agency's The Source for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made, without question. We were initially drawn to them because of their incredible playlist and online videos, and after attending one of their showcases, we knew immediately they were the perfect fit for our wedding. The showcase was fantastic and completely confirmed our instincts. They played an amazing mix of songs, showed off incredible energy and chemistry as a band, and took the time to answer all of our questions. One thing that especially stood out was when Chelsea explained that, if we booked them, she would serve as the master of ceremonies during the reception and would guide us through everything ahead of time. She absolutely delivered on that promise. A few weeks before the wedding, Chelsea followed up with us and our wedding planner to walk through the timeline and all of the important details for the day. She was organized, thoughtful, and made us feel completely confident that everything was in great hands. We also asked the band to learn a song that was really special to us for our first dance — the acoustic version of “First Date” by Blink-182. Not only did they learn it, but they performed it perfectly. It was somehow even better than we had imagined, and it became one of the most memorable moments of the entire day. During the reception, Chelsea completely took control of the MC duties and kept everything flowing seamlessly, while the band absolutely brought the house down. We truly cannot overstate how incredible they were — it felt like we had our own private concert. The energy was unreal. The saxophonist and vocalists came out onto the dance floor multiple times while performing, which made the whole experience feel so immersive and exciting. The male vocalist, in particular, was an absolute rock star — his talent, smile, and infectious energy were on another level and impossible not to feed off of. Throughout the night and even after the wedding, guest after guest told us that The Source was the best wedding band they had ever experienced — by far. They made such a huge impact on the entire evening and helped create the kind of celebration we had always hoped for. We cannot recommend The Source highly enough. If you have the chance to attend one of their showcases, do it. And if you’re on the fence about booking them, this is your sign: go with The Source. You will not regret it.
"Hey gang, Gary asked me to connect with y’all about Saturday. I just wanted to stress that for the purposes of a gig that was supposed to feature more Latin music than normal, the additional singer AND the percussionist were critical. The percussionist was so additive, he was such a monster musician, and the vocalist was running conga lines and even had the father of the bride singing in Spanish on her mic. It added such a layer of depth and made the latin music feel much more authentic. Other than that, for whatever it’s worth, that gig is the best the band has been. Keys were dialed in, the new drummer is improving, and the individuals of the front line are really starting to gel. Just wanted to touch base and keep y’all in the loop.
