“We hired the Ziggy Band and the Kosher Klezmer Band for our wedding in Houston on 3/15/20. Every single part of working with the band, from the band themselves to Pam (who coordinates everything) was seamless and a pleasure! We organized this entire wedding remotely, with our wedding planner in New England, me (bride) in Virginia, and my fiance in Mississippi. Pam continued to be receptive, responsive, gracious, and professional. We had to move things around so many times, and everyone was so understanding and kind! The music on the wedding day was FANTASTIC. Everyone was blown away, and my family comprises both amateur and professional musicians who have extremely high musical standards. I wish I lived in Houston—they would be at any event I was part of!!! Especially if you are Jewish—this is a very reliable band to choose. If you want amazing live music of any culture, genre, etc....you know who to choose!!! Thank you so much to the Ziggy Band and Kosher Klezmer Band for helping to make our wedding so incredibly beautiful and special! Your music was a blessing to us.”

“ I can’t thank you and your bands enough for the great music you provided for the ceremony and reception party. It was a blast from start to finish! I really appreciate the time the Kosher Klezmer Band put in to learn the folk dances and to Janice for “learning” Bulgarian. The procession, the horas, etc., were so much fun I hardly noticed not eating. In fact, I was so busy dancing I hardly even had a crack at the drinks! Thanks again for helping to make it a tremendous day for all us.”

“Thank you for playing at our sons Bar Mitzvah Party!!! You guys were a hit! I knew it was a hit when I saw the Rabbi drumming away on the table and singing along to the music and the waiters were also dancing in the kitchen hallway. The music was fantastic and kept everyone dancing all night. That had to have been the longest hora we’ve ever danced to....we all had so much fun!! It has been 1 week since the party and people still keep telling us how much they enjoyed the music that evening, “The band was awesome!” You guys are the best in our book and we will most certainly book you guys for our next Simcha. We will definetly recommend ya’ll if anyone is looking for a good Band that plays a variety of music. Thanks so much!”

“I want to thank you and your wonderful musicians for the amazing contribution you made to the wedding of our children at Camp Young Judaea. Your music in the background during their ketubah signing made the moment even more magical. The music was transformational. You helped us move our large group from one place to the next and capture the mood of each place. From the ketubah signing, to the ceremony, to the reception and then to the Hora set at the dinner, we enjoyed your music and professionalism. I hope we can do it again for our daughter!!!!!”

“The Ziggy Band did a GREAT JOB with excellent live music and vocals from very talented musicians covering nearly every genre. Pam was super to work with remotely and pulled a short planned wedding (7 weeks) off with no issues and only smiles. I give them my highest recommendation and as a musician myself, I’m a tough grader. Viva Ziggy Band!”

“We received SOOOO many compliments on all aspects of your music for our son’s Bar Mitzvah…outdoor Jewish music, indoor Jewish music, rock/pop, and DJ!
Our party planner thought you were great! Thanks for making me look good and thanks for a great experience!”

“People were still talking about the Klezmer music Saturday night...and at the brunch on Sunday!! Lots of people said that they had asked about having music and were told no!...So we really lucked out!! Thank you so much for adding so much to the celebration...I know that you don’t need references...but I would be an extremely enthusiastic one!! Feel free to give my name and number as you wish!!”

“Thank you so, so much! Y’all were totally marvelous! You started the evening off in such a beautiful, fun, frailach. Your music energized in delicious ways and the energy in the room was fantastic! I can’t thank you enough and I’m telling everyone to call you for weddings, bar mitzvahs, or any event. The Kosher Klezmers are a wonderful group of musicians and you are a pleasure to work with!”

“On the fourth we got together with the families from our Chavurah group. Everyone said they loved all of the music for the wedding ! The music for the pre wedding and the Chuppah ceremony was beautiful. The Kosher Klezmer Band was terrific! And last but not least your Ziggy Band was phenomenal. The variety of the songs played was superb and your singers were something else! You were wonderful to work with and so very helpful! I would highly recommend you to anyone who is interested in hearing fantastic music!”
— Shelley
“I would like to thank you for your performance at our wedding on December 31. It was an amazing addition to the atmosphere of the party and your professional experience and sensitivity created just the right music for this event! Tali and Roy and our entire family enjoyed your band’s music tremendously and we appreciate your talent & effort.”

“Ziggy Band & The Kosher Klezmer Band helped transform our wedding into a night we will remember and cherish always. The band was extremely versatile and flexible for our needs. From playing traditional Jewish music during our wedding ceremony, to escorting us down the street to the reception venue afterwards, to playing light music during dinner and finally turning up the fun for the reception, they did it all. They learned a tremendous amount of songs that we had requested, they were energetic and kept the crowd dancing and asking for encores when the set was up. Months later many friends still bring up to us what an amazing time they had dancing the night away to the music from the band. We even received a message from a couple of friends who heard a song on the radio the band had played and reminisced about how it was better and more fun when the band played it at the wedding. Everyone young and old enjoyed and danced away to music from oldies to today’s pop hits. We highly recommend having them for your event, they won’t disappoint!”
