Best Band !

As a wedding planner I have worked with tons of bands and DJ's. Grand Central Station was great to work with on all fronts- professional, easy to work with, great sound! I would 10/10 recommend as a hospitality professional for anyone looking to have a great band for their event.

You Need Grand Central Station!

We could not recommend Grand Central Station more for your wedding. Paul was great in helping us with picking out songs leading up to the wedding and he captured our song list perfectly. Once they started playing, the dance floor was packed the whole time. They made sure to play a variety of genres and songs that everyone could sing along to. After the wedding, everyone commented on how great the band was and how much fun they had. We wish we could have kept the partying going all night! You won't be disappointed if you book this band!

Everybody loved GCSB!

We booked GCSB after hearing many good reviews and they absolutely did not disappoint! Paul was great to work with and we really appreciated his attention to detail with regard to meeting our expectations of what we wanted our wedding band/entertainment to bring to our reception. They promised a party for our guests and that is exactly what we got! They also learned our first dance song and played it flawlessly, which was so special.
