Pride & Joy

Pride and Joy are amazing. They played at our recent wedding in Mill Valley at the Outdoor Art Club and they were absolutely fantastic. We saw them play at a friend’s wedding last year and knew we had to have them at our wedding. They are fun, extremely talented, and so professional. They had every wedding guest up and dancing and played so many wonderful classics. Coleman, the band leader, was such a pleasure to work with and the band even learned a new song for our first dance. My feet were killing me the next day from dancing, but it was so worth it!

This high energy band plays great dance — able oldies from the 70s. They got just about everyone up dancing here at this outdoorsy mall in Santa Rosa.
This is my first time to this mall but I had heard of this nine piece band in a different town. They definitely entertain you and get you moving. Just so much fun on a Saturday afternoon.
If you need this band for an event I’m sure you will be happy with your choice. I’m really picky when I listen to certain bands and this one definitely delivers!

Pride & Joy is without a doubt the best band ever! They played at my stepsister’s wedding years ago, and my parents couldn’t wait to get them back for my wedding in October. Coleman worked with me on every detail and was accommodating to the space and sound constraints of our venue. They got every single guest on the dance floor and delivered quite a show. I couldn’t be happier when I think about the music at my wedding!

Pride & Joy is, hands-​down, the best choice we could have made for our wedding band. They had every single guest up and dancing, and their energy and high-​quality performance eliminated any hint of cringe-​worthy «cheesy wedding band» that you find with other groups.
Since our wedding a month ago, two other friends have already hired them for weddings next year — and at least 20 guests have told us that we had the best wedding band they’ve ever heard.
Since their Unilocal presence is pretty small, we went to hear Pride & Joy play a live show before deciding to hire them. As soon as we saw them live, we knew they were the right choice for a wedding where we really wanted everyone to dance! As a bonus, they’re also multi-​talented musicians who played an hour of jazz-​standard cocktail music (at our request) before moving into the full set of R&B/soul throwbacks.
Coleman, the band leader, is also a pleasure to work with, and an all-​around nice guy. He called me a couple days before the wedding to confirm all the details, and made me feel very confident that I had made the right choice, even before the wedding began.

Pride & Joy played our wedding on 8.20.2011 and they were incredible. Since the wedding DOZENS of people have told us that they were the «best wedding band they have ever heard». However, to refer to Pride & Joy as a wedding band is a little unfair because they are more than just a wedding band. If you have the opportunity to see them perform at a large venue, do it. They put on a full stage show in which their passion and excitement literally fill the room. If you love to dance and enjoy Michael Jackson, 70’s funk and maybe even a little Outkast, this is your band. If you are having an event and you can afford them, do not hesitate.
