Client Reviews
“Motown was truly the best vendor we hired for our wedding, and entertainment was one of the most important selections for us during planning. The band was exceptionally talented and curated the music to our taste with absolute perfection. They created an electric atmosphere from start to finish, kept the dance floor full all night, and had our guests buzzing about the music long after the wedding. They didn’t just play songs, they elevated the entire experience and made our night unforgettable. Mike and the gang deliver such a performative experience that keeps the energy up the whole night, you can’t get any better musicians in Charleston!”
— Meagan“We cannot begin to explain how amazing this band is- from small events to large - Michael and his team was completely turn key solution to one of the best nights of our life - our wedding day!
The band is truly incredible form the bass, to the horns, keys, to the vocals - even DAYS after the wedding.... all of our guest kept bringing up the Motown Throwdowns!!”
— Ethan“Don't question whether or not to book Motown Throwdown. Just do it and you won't regret it. They put on such a show at our wedding reception and Mike was incredible to work with throughout the process with everything from picking first dance songs, MC'ing parts of the reception, and even a few off the wall requests. And they flat out JAM. All our guests continue to talk about how great the band was and we could not be happier with having them play at our wedding reception.”
— Eli“If I could give Motown Throwdown more than 5 stars for being the best band for our wedding, I absolutely would! I could not have dreamed of a more perfect match for the type of party we were trying to throw. Going into our wedding, the most important thing to us was having a live band that people would love dancing and singing to, and they were that and more. They are true rock stars! The vocals of the lead singer were insane, the instrumental solos made it feel like you were seeing some of your favorite classic bands playing in real time, and the energy they brought was unmatched. I had so many guests telling me it was the best wedding band they've seen, and I couldn't agree more. There were times people stopped dancing because they were so entranced by the talent on the stage, and at the end of each song, the crowd enthusiastically applauded like they were at a live concert. They were great when it came to song selection and modifying our first dance songs (because we don't have the skills to dance for very long). It also felt like they were sincerely just as happy to be sharing in our joy, and I gave them huge hugs of gratitude. Book them for your special event!!”
— Kathleen“I work at a large car manufacturer, and I hired Motown Throwdown for our Holiday Party. This band is amazing! Absolutely blown away but their performance! Working with Mike was an absolute pleasure, and I would hire them again and again! All the employees loved their song choices, and they had everyone dancing all night long!”
— Chrissy“I've had the honor of hiring Motown Throwdown for several corporate/nonprofit events over the years and they ALWAYS bring the energy and funk and soul wherever they go. The team is responsive and dedicated to making whatever function they're a part of the best it can be. Highly recommend (and bring your dance shoes).”
— Jordan“Motown Throwdown absolutely exceeded our expectations on our wedding night. They read the crowd and played the MOST fun music. They really took our interests and personality into consideration when coming up with the set list. The dance floor was constantly occupied!! Wouldn’t think of using anyone else.”
— Katie“Want a band that brings the energy and some of the most talented musicians in town, look no further! Motown Throwdown is one of our favorites to work with for any event and couldn't recommend them more. Mike is super fun and easy to work with making the planning side of things seamless and super easy!”
