"New Waves were truly wonderful. We booked them to play at our wedding and couldn't have asked for a better experience or performance. They were so responsive to all of our emails, and incredibly accommodating of our music choices (they even learned a new song for our first dance!). Their sound is magical, and so many people came up to us on the day to say how incredible the band were. They had a great selection of songs and were so friendly and professional - they fit in like any wedding guest! We will be recommending The New Waves to anyone who is looking for a band in France. You would be doing yourselves a disservice not booking them for your event!"
"We are so happy we chose New Waves for our wedding! They were so professional, their performance was amazing they are very talented musicians! They looked great and sounded great. They even offered to learn a song for our first dance which was not in their portfolio. I would highly recommend them!"
"The band were fantastic from the start of the process to the very end. We were able to select what songs we would like, how up-tempo we would like it and everyone kept saying how amazing the music was!"
"From the moment we found out about New Waves, we knew they were the right fit for us. Their music and style were perfect for what we were looking for. The first contact we had with Jean-Michel confirmed we made the right decision. He was very prompt to respond and has been so accommodating through the process, and our various requests, it made us feel comfortable and confident that New Waves would rock the party. We decided to hire the band to handle the entertainment part of the night and they handled it beautifully. From the moment guests entered the venue, the band was on point and everyone loved it. Vanessa and Kenzy have wonderful voices and got everyone on the dancefloor. The transitions between songs were seamless and kept the party going. Jean-Michel had a computer playlist between sets and off time. Everyone from New Waves was so kind and they let us party until 4 AM as everyone continued to have so much fun. We would highly recommend New Waves to everyone and we would like to thank Jean-Michel and his band for such a wonderful experience."
