    The Airwave Band was rocking!

    The Airwave Band played at my son and (now) daughter's wedding and they were fabulous! Having live music really is a great addition to any wedding and The Airwave Band gets everyone on the dance floor! We loved their music variety and selection. Stop by Jeff Ruby's or Carlos and Johnny's for a preview, see restaurants website for when Airwave's are playing. I highly recommend this band! Dixie and company rock!

    The grooviest band in the land!

    A band was a top priority for our wedding reception! We remembered the Airwave wedding band from a wedding we attended in 2018!! (That's how memorable they are!) WOW. Did they go above and beyond for our big day. They are worth every penny! Adam was SO amazing to work with during our wedding planning process. He was extremely professional, kind, communicative and willing to work with us through the COVID-19 adjustments and new guidelines. In our state, dancing was banned -- but we knew we wanted to keep the band for some amazing live entertainment. We are so glad we did! It was the hit of the night and kept people smiling, dancing and singing along. The band learned our first dance song specifically for our wedding because we choregraphed a dance to it -- they KNOCKED IT OUT OF THE PARK! Because of their performance, so many of our friends are adding a band to their wedding plans. Thank you Airwave for helping make our wedding day so memorable, fun and GROOVY!!

    The Airwave Band's reply:

    Thank you so much, Kenzie - we really appreciate the opportunity to have helped make your reception a success during these crazy times. Congrats to you and Mark!

    Great band for a wedding!

    Airwave was very flexible and easy to work with. Their vast song list made it easy for us to customize a song list for our wedding reception and they brought the energy to keep the party going all night. Many guests told us how much they enjoyed the band as well. We can't recommend them enough. They worked directly with the venue to determine the best setup which took one thing off our plate to coordinate.

    Airwave is by far best wedding band in Cincinnati! If I could give them 10 stars I would! My husband and I started looking for wedding bands shortly after we got engaged and stumbled upon Airwave on a wedding website. We decided to check out one of their shows at Carlo & Johnny and literally booked them that night (Yes, they are THAT amazing!) Dixie's voice is one of the most beautiful, soulful voices I've ever heard in my life! Just spectacular! We loved them so much that the months leading up to our wedding we went to almost all of their shows at Carlo & Johnny for our date nights. Ted, Dixie and Keenan all took the time to say hello during their breaks and even went out of their way to play our wedding song!

    The range of music that they are able to play is incredible- from Cole Porter Hits to Lady Gaga (and it all sounds great!) We really appreciated that they were able to learn two new songs (Simple Man and Do You Love Me by the Contours) for our Mother/Son, Father/Daughter dances! Ted was extremely easy to work with and did an amazing job emceeing the reception. Our guests went crazy when they played "Blurred Lines" for our Bridal Party Grand Entrance--too fun! Do yourself a favor and book Airwave for your wedding! Our guests are still talking about our amazing band and what a great time they had dancing the night away! Thank you Airwave!- Homana & Matt

    Unbelievable!

    My husband and I have loved and followed Airwave since we first saw them perform at his sister's wedding. We have watched them play live at Carlo & Johnny's. Then, when we got engaged, we booked Airwave IMMEDIATELY!
    They are just absolutely unreal. I wrote them an email recently thanking them for their performance at our wedding, and I thought it best describe how we felt, so I have pasted it here =)

    Adam,
    I cannot tell you enough how absolutely INCREDIBLE you and your band are! Our guests kept going on and on about your performance (And still are!). Despite seeing you all play as many times as we have, we were still blown away. Thank you for keeping people on the dance floor all night and for making our wedding reception unforgettable!

    I also want to thank you specifically for:
    1) Learning news songs for our occasion and absolutely killing it!
    2) Playing that Boz Scaggs song for my grandfather + announcing him to come to the dance floor... I cannot tell you how much this meant to him.
    3) Letting us use the mic to call people to the dance floor for photos!
    4) Being so organized, helpful and prompt in your responses throughout the planning process!

    You and your band are truly one-of-a-kind. With such extraordinary skill along with being so personable and friendly... just amazing. We will, without a doubt, continue to recommend you to our friends!

    Thank you again for everything,
    Ashley

    Airwave will never disappoint! Book them!!!

    Best Band in Cincinnati!!

    Airwave Band was exceptional! Our wedding was over a year ago and when we think back on that day this band was the best part. They were very accommodating and easy to work with. They learned a few new songs for us and helped us put together our playlist. They have great insight on how to structure the evening. Their range of songs is great and they make everyone get out on the dance floor. All of our guests commented that the band was amazing. They definitely made the night very special. If you're looking for a band for your wedding look no further! They did an amazing job and I am so happy we chose Airwave!!

    Awesome. There is no better band.

    Airwaves as always was exceptional. Very easy to work with, very accommodating, even learning some new songs for us. The crowded dance floor all evening was evidence of their ability to reach all generations and get them out dancing. We got an extreme amount of compliments from out of town guests. They made our daughters reception a truly memorable evening.

    Airwave Was Beyond Amazing

    Airwave was amazing! They made our reception what it was and everybody was dancing the entire time. They brought great energy in addition to their unreal talent. In addition, they learned our first-dance song and listened to our "do not play" list. Would recommend them to everyone!

    Book this band!

    The Airwave Productions team was the icing on the cake to our wedding. Adam Scovanner was a dream to work with- was timely with email and phone call responses, asked questions that we didn't think to ask our venue team, and assisted with the seamless transitions from moment to moment of a beautiful wedding day we so enjoyed spending with the band themselves. They kept our guests dancing and singing all night, and were incredibly attentive to the songs requested, wanting to be avoided, etc. We would 100% recommend Airwave for any event, and look forward to rocking out with them again in the future!

    Airwave is the Best!

    I have nothing but good things to say about Airwave. They made every part of our reception memorable. The music they played for intros was perfectly on point. From there, our first dance songs were exactly as we had asked for them - short and sweet. It was like Ed Sheeran was there! Once dinner was over, their music helped get ALL of our guests on the dance floor immediately and they were dancing through the night. I wished we had them for a few more hours. Thank you to everyone in the group - it was truly amazing. I have nothing but good things to say about them and would recommend them to anyone.

    A special THANK YOU to Airwave Productions for the awesome music at our daughter's wedding! They were incredible and very accommodating with all the extra help we needed for planning the father/daughter dance! The dance floor was packed from the moment the band started playing and very entertaining! We can't thank you enough for making the night so special! We will be sure to recommend you to our friends and family! Lauri & Kevin O'Connell

    Many of our guests told us that our wedding was one of the most fun weddings they had ever been to, and I contribute a huge part of that to Airwave! They were PHENOMENAL and had everyone dancing all night long! They were easy to work with and didn’t require any in-person meetings before the big day, which was great because I was planning a wedding from across the country. Airwave was by far the best money we spent on our wedding, and I could not have imagined it without them.

    I cannot say enough good things about this band! Aside from playing amazing music, Ted the band manager made my day completely come together. One of my favorite parts of my entire wedding night was sitting down for dinner and hearing Dixie and the band start to sing their dinner set- it was AMAZING. Honestly, I usually force myself to the dance floor and am over it by the end of the night, and now I would give anything to spend another hour on the dance floor at my wedding with this band. We added the horns section for our wedding night and it is worth every penny. Every song the band played was a hit ( awesome combination of current and 80s for the reception and also beautiful dinner music) -everyone want to be around the music. I am so lucky they were available for us and I wouldn't have changed a thing! They are THE BEST!

    Thanks Alyssa!

    we were fortunate enough to have Airwave play at our daughter's recent wedding and there is a reason they are one of the most sought after bands in the region :) they are FABULOUS ! They are professional, easy to work with , their play list is superb and their on-stage presence is fabulous. Most of our 180 guests stayed on the dance floor until the last song was played...and they would have stayed longer :) on a scale of 10 , Airwave is a 20 :)
    PS: splurge for the 10 piece to include the horn section...well worth the additional, minimal cost

    The wedding was even more incredible than we could have possibly imagined. The music was perfect and I must have gotten a hundred compliments on how fantastic the band was!!! From the ceremony to the very last song, Airwave set the tone and kept the party going - everyone was dancing all night long, which was exactly what we were hoping for. Thank you for all of your help over the last year. We could not be any happier with how our day and night turned out!

    Airwave was a HUGE hit at our wedding this past September (2017). During our band search, Airwave caught our attention when Adam invited us to watch the band play at their regular Wednesday night gig at Jeff Ruby's. We were very impressed with the range of songs they could play, and play extremely well. We decided on Airwave that night and the great experience continued all the way through the booking process and wedding reception. They had everyone (of all ages!) on their feet dancing all night. Many of our guests continue to compliment how great the band was. We would hire Airwave a thousand times over!

    Hiring Airwave as our wedding band this past month (September, 2017) was one of the best decisions we ever made! My husband and I searched forever to find a band in Cincinnati that we were happy with and it was not until we found Airwave that we felt we were in good hands. Turns out, Airwave went above and beyond our every expectation. They were incredible to work with and so quick to respond to all of my emails, easy about every request we had, and above all else, INCREDIBLE at the wedding! All of our guests had an amazing time and SO many people told us how good they were. Every singer in the band is incredible (which was SUPER important to me given my background as a performer), and specifically Dixie's voice is ridiculously insane..that woman can sing ANYTHING! We would hire Airwave a thousand times over! There is truly no doubt that they are the best band in Cincinnati!!

    Below is a message I wrote privately to the band:

    "Holy Smokes! Adam, the band was amazing last night! They kept everyone on the dance floor all night. Thanks for being so professional, entertaining, and fun! They made our night truly amazing. The rendition of sweetest devotion was out of this world."

    They are the best decision I made for our reception!! Thanks again!

    Ted Karas, band leader was incredibly responsive to all of our emails and inquiries. He worked within our budget and The Airwave Band was AMAZING! From the moment they started playing we had family and friends approach us to tell us how impressed they were with the band and in general how great they were. Our guests are still talking about The Airwave Band and we are looking forward to seeing them play locally at Jeff Ruby restaurants to continue to relive our special day!

    Amazing performance at our wedding! Airwave was fabulous! The energy level stayed high and the dance floor was packed all night--just what we wanted! The band learned two new requested songs--with very short notice. Airwave works extremely hard to please the client and audience. Not only easy to work with but a true pleasure to work with! 5+++ stars.

    I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful music and atmosphere created at our wedding. You all are such a blast and ever so talented! I can't tell you how many compliments we received on the music and how well you sounded live - after all nothing beats a live band, especially a good one:) It was even said you played the "Best Live" version of Journey's, "Can't Stop Believing" that some had ever heard! Also, thank you for keeping everything moving so smoothly throughout the night. You made our night one-of-a-kind and so, so memorable. You are a gem to work with and I hope to cross paths with you in the future when in need of a band. Thank you, thank you!

    Phenomenal!!!! Airwave made our wedding the perfect fun night that we had envisioned! They were extremely professional, responded to all of my questions quickly, and helped me organize the night. Everyone at our reception raved about the band and said it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to (I know people say that all of the time) and everyone was on the dance floor by 8:30 and danced the rest of the night! Their song selection was perfect, they picked a great playlist for their break, and their vocals were just amazing! I was so impressed and I could not recommend them enough!! Thank you!!
