What are your favorite bands on the Central Coast

I'm planning a garden wedding reception for late May. Anyone have any favorite bands in the area? I live in San Diego so am a bit disconnected from the local music scene. Any suggestions are appreciated!! 

specifics: I'm hoping to find a group that will get people dancing, but isn't the typical wedding band... all up for bluegrass or jazz or reggae or ???

thanks tons!!

    I didn't even listen to my wedding band before our wedding. Crazy right? DH and I told my dad that we wanted a band that could play jazz, swing, rock, standards, etc. He immediately said "Oh you're looking for the San Luis Jazz band" without even a stutter. Hearst Castle books them by the way. They were fabulous! The dance floor was full ALL night. I have amazing pictures of people having a great time. 

    They have a website and you can hear a tiny snipit of what they sound like. I know they are also excellent at latin music!

    Narrow Road is a great choice if you haven't already booked a band.  They can play, country, rock, bluegrass, and gospel.  Their harmonies make them stand apart from any other band on the Central Coast.  For bookings call (805)296-5825.
