Dave Barton DJ

Outside of the venue, a good wedding band was our second priority and after significant research, we decided to go with the Attraction Band and it was the best decision we made! Dave, the band leader, was very responsive and kept in regular contact before, during, and after our wedding to make sure we were happy and that everything went well. The night of our wedding, the Attraction Band killed it and everyone was on the dance floor having a good time. We highly recommend Attraction Band!!! More...

There are not enough positive things I can say about this band. I scoured the internet, Instagram, Facebook, The Knot, Wedding Wire, you name it. ..to find the ultimate band. I wanted a band that can sing it all - they can. Not only can they sing it all - they sing it all incredibly well. Our guests absolutely raved about them and my dad (a harsh critic) said it was the best decision I made for our wedding day - aside from choosing my husband, of course!

Not only that, the majority of my friends and family traveled from big cities...Boston, New York, Los Angeles and more. ALL of them agreed...this was the best wedding band they'd ever heard and that says A LOT! Of course, especially when they are coming from major cities with all the bands in the world to choose from.

"Attraction" is incredible easy to work with. Dave...the band manager...is not only talented, but he knows exactly what brides need. I even met with them ahead of time to practice a song that I decided to sing for my husband on our wedding day. They worked with me, they gave the song everything they had and I appreciate it more than they know.

This band sings it all, they get the crowd up and dancing and they know how to keep the party going. Our only regret is that we couldn't dance to them all night long - seriously. Also, besides dancing... my friends who are future brides, all walked away with their business card. They are incredible! More...

The best wedding band I could have imagined. So much fun and professional. Almost every guest commented on how great they were and that they’ve never seen a wedding with so many people dancing! Dave even eagerly volunteered when we asked to do a Chicago Bulls themed starting lineup for our wedding party intro. More...

He was always pleasant to work with prior to the wedding. He played music appropriate for our family and my daughters friends and no cheesey talk in between. He was also prompt and professionally attired. More...

When planning our wedding we wanted it to not just be a typical affair but we instead wanted an all-out dance party. A champagne-soaked, sweaty, raucous good time. Attraction delivered big time. With a very small wedding of 78, each and every one of Attraction's 9 band members interacted with our friends and family. They involved everyone, from my nephews singing on the microphone to having my sister play the tambourine, they kept our night very high energy. With such a small wedding it very easily could have gone the other way but they ensured that wasn't the case. The sister with the tambourine? She flew home with a tambourine-related injury as she had so much fun she bruised her hand. The nephew with the microphone? He fell asleep that night in the hat the band gave him and has rarely taken it off since. And 8 months later, when I asked the band if they could record a video for said nephews birthday, they gladly agreed and made his day. He feels famous and I feel like the world's greatest aunt. Thank you, Attraction, for making our dance-party wedding wishes come true and for being all around great people. More...

Attraction was the band at my wedding on September 23, 2018. There were incredible! They have different members of the band come on to the dance floor and keep the party going! They sing a variety of different genres of music, so I think all the guests really enjoyed them. Working with Dave and coordinating different details went really smooth. He was super responsive and flexible. More...

We were so pleased with Attraction Band's performance at our wedding in September. Their genuine enthusiasm and high energy level created an awesome party environment, and kept our guests dancing for the entire night.

We were also very impressed with the band's poise and professionalism. They had a strong stage presence while simultaneously keeping our guests engaged with great music for all three of the sets they played.

We had several guests tell us Attraction Band was the best band they've ever heard at a wedding. The combination of two male and two female vocalists enabled them to play a very diverse set list, covering tons of classics and new hits.

They also were very strong communicators before the wedding, in regard to meals, set up time, etc. and also around timing for our first dance songs. It made the planning process very easy on our end.

Thank you so much Attraction Band! More...

Attraction was AMAZING! The dance floor was packed and I loved how lively and fun they were. One of the lead singers did a Stevie Wonder performance that was uncanny and super entertaining! They played a great mix of genres of music. The only reason I dropped a couple points off is because they took an extra long break at the start of the night (we chose to have their one big break be at the beginning during dinner - supposed to be 45 min to 1 hr long) and my mom had to tell the band leader to start. Overall, excellent communication leading up to the wedding date with the band leader when sending a song lists and first dance songs, etc. and SUCH A FUN AND TALENTED band!! We also had this same band for my older sister's band, and one of my best friends had them too! Obviously they are doing it right! :) Highly recommend Attraction for weddings! More...

ATTRACTION IS THE BEST WEDDING BAND, PERIOD!! Two of my bridesmaids had them at their weddings, so when my husband and I got engaged, this was an absolute no brainer - once we picked the date, I reached out to Sam Hill Entertainment to see if Attraction was available.
We had a large wedding - around 240 people - and so much going on (hookah bar outside by the fireplace, a Persian DJ to play during band breaks, a tasting room that was separate where many guests were hanging out by the fire). Attraction made sure that the people who were in the ballroom were on the dance floor - they played the best music, had phenomenal energy, came out on the dance floor, etc. They even pulled me up on stage to have me help "sing" (ha) one of the songs I had previously requested. They also obliged a few of my requests to customize some songs, and did everything seamlessly. Do yourself a favor and hire Attraction - you won't regret it!! Oh - and get the two additional horns to make a full ten piece band!! More...

Attraction is absolutely the best wedding band I have ever heard! We are so fortunate that they played at our daughter's wedding. Dave and the rest of the band are so fun, talented, energetic, friendly, and engaging that our guests just raved about them during and after the wedding. They played a great variety of songs from every decade so there was something for everyone. I highly recommend them for any special event. We could not be happier with our decision to hire Attraction. They were outstanding! More...

OMG, where do I start. Attraction was the BEST money we spent for our entire wedding. They were incredible. First of all, Dave (band leader) amazing to work with. Responsive, professional and so kind/down to earth. They learned several songs specifically for our wedding which was above and beyond. The energy was crazy. They truly made the party. My wedding guests were having such a good time after they played the last song everyone started chanting "encore, encore, encore". What wedding have you ever been to where there was an ENCORE! We had one. Since the wedding I've had countless folks tell me that they felt like they were at a concert and it was the best/most fun wedding they had ever been to. Although the ceremony was beautiful, I know it's because ATTRACTION brought the party!!! Do yourself a favor and stop looking for a band. Attraction was worth every single penny and so much more. We also had music for the ceremony (guitar and trumpet duo) and cocktail hour (pianist). They did a great job for the ceremony (which was outside)- it was something special for sure. I didn't hear the pianist during cocktail hour b/c we were taking pictures but I heard it was beautiful.

To get right to the point: I highly recommend ATTRACTION. If they are within your budget, look no further. They are talented musicians, play a wide range of genres, and put on an impressive performance. Literally, from the beginning to end of their performance, the dance floor was packed. I’ve never seen any other wedding band command such an audience.

Leading up to the event, we worked closely with band leader, Dave Barton. We coordinated with him directly on arrivals, schedules, meals, etc, and most importantly set lists. We provided some song requests to incorporate in their show, and they filled out the rest in a perfectly curated set list to please all guests ranging from ages 8 to 80.

The reception was held at a tent in a cow pasture at a family farm. This required significant flexibility on the band’s part as it related to pre-performance accommodations and scheduling. Throughout the day, not just the performance, they were professional, courteous, fun, jovial, charming, and brought the perfect energy to make our wedding special.

Our scheduling wasn't traditional: we requested they limit playing through dinner, and instead save up for the latter half of the evening. We budgeted in breaks but with dinner service extending longer than expected, the band rolled with it and played through the entire night without taking any breaks.

We couldn’t have been happier with Attraction. I only hope we get the chance to be a part of another event together soon. More...

This group has some incredibly talented vocalists. Holy smokes.
We heard them rehearsing before our reception started (we were taking some photos there), and got SO excited, because even just warming up, they were spectacular.
They blew us away! We had watched their promo video online and were very impressed, but that's nothing compared to how they were in person.
They did a wonderful job of picking up on the vibe of the party and keeping it going. They brought so much energy, and really turned our reception into a dance party. They engagde the crowd- it was almost like being a concert at our own wedding!
They also did music at our cocktail hour which was more instrumental and extremely classy.
They're performers, but everyone was so nice! We were bumping into them before the reception started and they were all so sweet.
My advice: check out their video, and then book! It's evident how talented they are, but they will exceed expectations. More...

This is a great band on its own but there are a few things that make it worthy of 5 stars.
- Range: they can play songs from the '20s or the 2000s

- Male/female vocals: great male and female vocals enables them to do just about anything
- Attention to detail: Talk to Dave about your expectations for songs, the vibe, etc and he'll make it happen
- Interaction: They do just the right amount of interaction with the crowd. The dance floor was never empty and my bride got to do a little singing as well (again just the right amount).

Final note: I can't count how many compliments I got on the band (which was my one major contribution) so if you enjoy compliments and a hell of a dance party then book Attraction. More...

We had potential weather problems, and the Band fully cooperated and worked with us. We had to make a last minute decision as to outdoor, or on the Veranda, and they helped relieve our stress by assuring us they would do whatever necessary and make it work, and they did!
They assisted us with their sound system to help us make our announcements and our wedding welcome and toasts so all could hear.
The music was amazing and Attraction had everyone up on the dance floor the entire evening!
They can play just about everything, and they respected the wishes of the Bride and Groom as to what they did not want to hear, but otherwise were free to play what they played best, and what the crowd responded to.
They are not only great musicians, but they are also great performance artists!
The band feeds off the energy of the people and no one wanted the music to stop and the night to end!
