Southern City Lights was the BEST wedding band! The most important characteristic I valued in all of my vendors was communication and David Winkles was a great communicator! I think only ten minutes must have gone by from when I inquired about their availability and when I got a response! He was always so fast to respond to emails, dumb questions, texts, and calls! Other bands we had talked with charged extra fees for emceeing the wedding (literally just for saying heres the first dance, now theres cake cutting, lets throw the bouquet, its last call), for DJing between breaks, for special requests, for providing sound for the ceremony.. David so eagerly helped us do all of this at no extra cost! We had Southern City Lights do our ceremony music (guitar and violin) and reception (we got the 5 piece band) and it was amazing! The ceremony music was the perfect, volume, was clear, and was exactly what I had hoped! We asked David and the violinist to learn let it go by Passenger and Ho Hey by the Lumineers for our ceremony and it was better than any instrumental youtube cover we could find! They also learned Skinny Love by Bon Iver for our last dance in addition to doing a special request for our first dance and transitioning to a different song part way through! They were great about taking special requests throughout the night! Our wedding had 180 guests and the band and dance floor were set up under a 30 by 30 tent. They set up the sound system and lights and it lit the tent up like a party! Southern City Lights was such a great value and we are so appreciative of David and his bandmates! Hire them today, you wont regret it!

If I could give 10 stars I would! I had a huge Christmas party planned for months and my music plans canceled on me last minute. Not only did David step in to save the day, but gave us the experience of a lifetime! He made a good party great!! I can’t wait to hire him again! He was amazingly professional and responsive. Went above and beyond what I expected! Hiring him guarantees a successful event!

Great Band.

The band was fantastic! David worked well with us fitting the songs that we wanted in to the wedding reception. Perfect touch to cap off a wonderful evening. Highly recommend!

Southern City Lights played at our daughter's wedding and reception in December 2018. The band did a marvelous job for the ceremony and the reception, and the live music was really a winning decision and money well spent! They had just the right amount of volume, music selections to appeal to the varied ages of the crowd, and the live instruments and voices were excellent. We received many compliments on the music and the dance floor was never empty. This band is also willing to learn new songs for your event!! Thank you Southern City Lights!!
