Next Level Band of Charlotte Reviews

Hear what our wonderful clients have to say about there Next Level Band of Charlotte experience!!

Get your party started with this band!!!!

My husband is a musician and music lover, so I knew he would be uber picky with choosing a band. He did the research and we booked the Next Level Band for our wedding. They exceeded our expectations!! The music was on point, their energy got everyone up and dancing, they even had the guests sing along to the classics. I can’t say enough about the band, their professionalism and John and Judy Floyd. They were a joy to work with and put our nerves at ease in regard to everything from the songlist, set up, to the announcements and any special requests we had. I would highly recommend this band if you want your guests to remember how much fun they had at your wedding.

We never stopped dancing!

First, let me start by saying this is the first time we had ever hired a band and we really didn’t know what to expect. We really wanted the band to play danceable funk and rhythm and blues. They did exactly that for us. Our guests danced non stop. We had so many compliments about how incredible the band sounded. They were accommodating and friendly to our guests. Everyone could tell they are an experienced group of musicians. Best decision we made!

I worked with Next Level Band for a wedding in Charlotte and they were wonderful. Judy was great to work with before and during the event. I have worked with a lot of bands and this one is definitely one of the best.

Brother of the Groom

Everything about NLBOC is AMAZING! They were prompt, courteous, professional and sounded phenomenal! Mr. and Mrs. Floyd were on point from the go. The entire experience from the set up to the show was seamless. And once the band got started…it was a wrap. They kept the party going until the very end mixing old school and new school music into their playlist. I highly recommend them for any and all wedding or social events!

30th Wedding Anniversary Dinner Party

This band played at our 30th Wedding Anniversary, They were amazing from booking to playing at the end of the night, all my guest has been talking about the band and how much they enjoyed them. The band leaders are very professional in handling setting up your bookings for the date of your event. and the entire band are very nice people. They will make sure that they cater to the needs of what music you are looking for. Book this band if you are looking to wow the crowd at your event, if you don’t you will miss a great treat from your event. Look them up on you tube if you don’t believe me.

Party Band of the CENTURY!

Next Level Band of Charlotte was the BEST decision I have ever made for my wedding reception! Their performance completely elevated our entire reception experience! They took a basic wedding reception to an absolute party the second they stepped on stage! Their music selection was large and they played all the best dance tunes! The horn section was absolutely AMAZING! The women vocalist danced and sang their absolute hearts out! Leading up to my reception I communicated often with The Floyd family. Mrs. Floyd was very thorough, she made sure she knew exactly what I wanted and expected! I cannot say enough positive words about this band. I will recommending Next Level Band of Charlotte!

Everything we could have asked for … and more

Before the story – just know, this band is fantastic and a pleasure to work with. They love what they do and they love “Love” and it shows. When we heard Next Level Band of Charlotte (NLBOC) five years ago at a friend’s wedding we knew that they would be perfect for our daughter’s wedding. Now all we needed was a groom! When that finally happened we let them listen to the band on youtube and it was a match. They worked with the bride and groom on song selection and then the magic began. We wanted to surprise them with a special song at the end of the ceremony (“All You Need is Love”) like they did in the movie Love Actually. Judy – she’s the boss! – loved the idea and worked with us and the ceremony string quartet to come up with an arrangement. They got together with the string quartet and at the end of the ceremony pulled it off just perfectly. The entire night was magical and the music was non-stop and got everyone up on the dance floor. You cannot go wrong with NLBOC!!!

Hands down, one of the best I’ve encountered

By far one of the best bands I’ve heard. Judy was so easy to work with , professional, caring and just out right fun to get to know and work with. She kept in touch with me during the reception, which was very appreciated so that all planned moments synced. The band members were so professional and engaging to the guests- they kept the vibe going thru the last dance. Everyone loved them! Would highly recommend them over a DJ for your event!

Book them – do it NOW!!!!

When they announce “We’re The Next Level Band of Charlotte,” you and your guests will be yelling “Yes, you are!!!” I’d give them a million stars for performance quality and professionalism if the site would let me. They sound amazing – vocalists and instrumentalists of the highest caliber. And then they go next level and make it so much fun!! From singing happy birthday to the groom’s 101 year old grandmother to bringing multiple sax solos down to the floor with the guests to shout outs to the bride and groom, they exceeded every dream of what our event could be. Plus they are the best people and care so much about making your event special. Judy, the manager, really listens and goes the extra mile for you. Love her!! Can’t say enough nice things about this great, super talented band!!!

Next Level Band of Charlotte was better than I could’ve asked for! They truly brought the party, and were wonderful to work with. They made sure we were well taken care of, and thorough with all details. I’ve had so many guests tell us the band was amazing, and I can’t recommend them enough! 🙂

Outstanding band!

I was recommended NLBOC by a friend after having to cancel and reschedule our COVID wedding twice. The bride and some of her guests kept telling me that they were “the best band they’ve ever heard”. Well I’m here to tell everyone, they are absolutely correct!! From my first email with John and Judy, I knew they would be great. They were professional, flexible, detail oriented, organized, and so lively and outstanding!! Not to mention, they sound amazing and know how to keep the crowd entertained! I can’t say enough good things about John, Judy, and every band / sound member I interacted with! They truly were the cherry on top to my perfect wedding night! I will definitely be recommending them to everyone I know!

Next Level Band of Charlotte worked so hard to make our wedding day special. Not only are they a talented group, but they work to personalize the entertainment for the reception. They are fun, professions, and the talk of our wedding. We would highly recommend!

Absolutely remarkable!

Where do I begin in describing my experience with Next Level Band, Judy and John.

We hosted a Friendsgiving event and wanted something to entertain our guests throughout the night. I had the privilege of working with Judy and John on a wedding back in May and I knew then that I had to have them for one of my events in the future.

The flexibility and talent that this group has surpassed everything that we had hoped for. We are now trying to figure out when we can host this band again in the future just so we can groove the night away again!

 

To each band member, Judy and John……Bryan and I sincerely thank you. This event would not have been the best without you all involved!

We had the unexpected pleasure of enjoying The NEXT LEVEL BAND OF CHARLOTTE, at our niece’s wedding! They made such a lasting impression on so many people that night! We have been involved with music for many years, and I have to say that I have not enjoyed a band as thoroughly, since the Temptations Review years ago. They are so versatile, ranging from MOTOWN to COUNTRY to Oldies to Jason Mraz and other new music! I am hoping they will release a CD, and one day start touring… THEY ARE THAT GOOD!! We SO enjoyed talking to and meeting the members of this amazingly talented group. My one word description would have to SUPERB! Talented, friendly, versatile. I have not seen so many people on the dance floor anywhere in years! Excellent sound, great lighting effects, fabulous vocals and music…. thank you so much for a wonderful evening. Judy, you are such a dear person!

Next Level Band Of Charlotte was amazing!!! I am a wedding planner based out of Asheville N.C. and this band is now my #1 recommendation when anyone is looking for live music. I was so excited to see them live after my clients talked about them and they did not disappoint! If you are looking for a great live band that can move from Etta James to Prince – you have found them! They came early and had everything set up timely. The music was out of this world amazing and had guests dancing all evening. Judy was awesome to work with. Highly, highly recommend!

Corporate Holiday Party

You won’t regret booking Next Level Band for your company’s event! Everyone enjoyed their performance and professionalism. They were willing to dress-up in our theme and gave us an opportunity to select songs from the set list and add new ones (up to 2) also! I was extremely impressed with their willingness to go above and beyond in making sure we had a successful event. I HIGHLY recommend them if you are looking for a professional and incredibly gifted band. Trust me, they won’t disappoint!

Amazing! They were the perfect band and made our wedding night so much fun!

Everything went perfect with Next Level Band of Charlotte! They are the nicest people and will make sure everything goes great for whatever event you are having. They performed at our wedding and they were so nice to us and helpful. They even took requests to learn a few songs if there was anything we really wanted to have played. They did the announcements/ bridal party introductions with live music and it was amazing. As soon as they started playing later in the night for the reception, everyone was on the dance floor and no one sat down all night. All of our family members said how great they were, and they were professional the entire time. The band is so good, and Judy and John the managers of the band were so nice to us through the entire process and were kind to everyone that was at the wedding. If you are in need of a great, live band for any event this is a perfect pick and you will not be disappointed.

Everyone at the party was asking who they were and how they could book them! Judy (the band manager?) has been so easy and pleasurable to work with.

Next Level Band of Charlotte is absolutely AMAZING!!! They are so professional, personable and talented! We had space limitations and they made it work seamlessly. Their sound, their vibe, the way they move the crowd far surpassed what we could have anticipated. We want them to perform at all of our events!! As I mentioned earlier in this whole process, we have never had live entertainment before. We raised the bar on the signature Teen Conference Gala and I am sure that going forward, the other chapters will want live entertainment. They made the event (that has been historically a little boring to tell the truth) very enjoyable. Everyone, all the guests, were blown away! I have to thank you again for your patience throughout the approval process. We look forward to working with you all again in the near future.

Mina said…

We booked Next Level Band for our first Summer Concert of 2017 at the Anne Springs Close Greenway’s Summer Concert Series and I can tell you we have already got them to hold the date for 2018!!! From the professionalism they showed before, during and after the concert, the AMAZING talent this group has, to the crowd interaction and enthusiasm, it was an amazing evening! Our crowd of 1200 guests absolutely LOVED this group and we had dozens of people approach our staff and ask when Next Level would return to our stage! The staff all said this was their favorite group we’ve had out in the 5 years we have done our summer concert series. You will not go wrong with this group who performed a diverse set of music, something for every age in our crowd! I highly recommend Next Level Band for any public or private event where you want to get everyone engaged and enjoying the band! AWESOME NIGHT!!! If you have any questions or need more information, please feel free to contact me. I am the Community Event Coordinator for the Greenway and I book a lot of bands. This is the first I’ve written a review for! www.ascgreenway.org

They were so organized and professional from the second we contracted with them. They were all so great to work with and their music is amazing. I had so many guests asking how they could find this band! Top notch, down to earth and so humble. I highly recommend!

The band was excellent. Mrs. Floyd was always available and provided quick answers to questions. The band arrived on time and was ready to go at their appointed time. Dinner ran long, so the band sang a couple of slower songs to go along with dessert. It was well received by the entire group. Once dinner was over the band kept people on the dance floor for the rest of the evening. Their songs choices were excellent, well done, and performed exceptionally with a lot of energy. The Next Level Band was well dressed, professional, and their breaks were on time and very brief. I would highly recommend this band

Next Level Band of Charlotte is absolutely phenomenal!!! They are consummate professionals with a breath of musicality that enhances any occasion. My family utilized the band twice – for a family reunion and a birthday party – and each time, they blew us away, not only with their skill and talent, but as truly genuine and down-to-earth people. The attention to details; the willingness to coordinate their attire based on our theme; and the flexibility with the playlist are all features that make them one-of-a-kind. All of my family and friends have been raving about the band since our recent party last weekend. They truly are on another level! I can’t emphasize it enough: book them right away! Peace and continued blessings.

Next Level Band of Charlotte is an excellent band. We booked them for a Valentine’s Gala. First, the sound was superb. They played a combination of R&B and jazz tracks that added the sophisticated ambiance we were looking for. There were some guests who were into the music more than they were the food. When it comes to coordination, they were very easy to work. They demonstrated a level of professionalism that was above reproach
