My wedding is May 28th in three weeks. I have had a band booked since last April. I just got a EMAIL saying that my band has double booked and they are cancelling on me. I am freaking out. I have found 3 bands open for my date but was hoping to get feedback from someone on the bands.
I have West End, Rewind, and Jubilation. Please let me know if you have anything or any advice.

    I've heard good things about Jubilation.  I haven't heard of the other bands.

    Do you mind sharing which band backed out as a warning to other brides?

    No Idea Band out of New Orleans Backed out. The "double booked" my wedding date and the "other bride" so called booked before me. I think they took a bigger gig, at like a a casino or something since it is Memorial Day weekend.

    This happened to a good friend of mine as well with No Idea.  I'm not sure what they have going on or why they don't mind booting brides.  Personally, I love the band Harvey Jesus and Fire.  They're a good bit older but they play whatever music you want, not necessarily stuck to the typical old school wedding music.  They've been playing together for quite some time I believe.  My mom remembers Harvey from when she was young but they move and groove like they were 20.  VERY entertaining.  Harvey's son is Dave.  His band is KARMA.  I've seen them at a wedding and at Hurricane's in Metairie and they're super fun too!
