Help find band in NJ!!

I am having a very hard time finding a band that can do everything I need it to do, with in my budget, for my upcoming wedding in NJ.  I need a cover/variety band that can play Latin music as well as American.  I don't need all of the music in Spanish. I don't even need half, but at least 25%.  If anyone has any recommendations I would really appriciate it.  I am trying to stay under $2500. Please help.  Thanks!

  • I was very impressed with Time Machine.  The customize the make up of the band and adjust their price accordingly, but I don't know if they'd be able to get down to your budget.  That number is pretty tight for a band.
  • I booked the other band managed by Time Machine... Silk. Their MC/singer is Latino and sang a bunch of songs in Spanish when we saw them perform.
    That being said- they came in at $7,500. I also looked at Elegant Ensembles, but they came in over $10,000 for the night.

    When I was originally looking, I was hard pressed to even find a DJ that was under $2500, let alone a band.

    Maybe if you researched some party bands that didn't typically play weddings... maybe they wouldn't have as much of a 'wedding upcharge' and could be more in your price range.
  • <div>Our band was FABULOUS, they come in higher than $2500 but  I think they are workable, so maybe they will work with you?  They played everything, and everyone was dancing all night, they were really amazing.  <a href="http://www.soulrevivalband.com" rel="nofollow">www.soulrevivalband.com</a>    </div><div>
