Only one problem with this performance: Security had to ask people to stop dancing on the furniture!!!! What an exciting gig for the UPBEATBAND.com!!! Our entire group was excited and proud to perform our music with heart and soul in celebration with the family - and we enjoyed rehearsing and performing “Let My Love Open The Door” (Pete Townshend), You Make Me Feel So Young (Sinatra), preparing customized sets, etc., to make the event special. We customized the set with mostly classics (that Mary chose), and several contemporary, including “I Got A Feeling.” After the party, KC (our guitar hero) and our vocalists agreed this was one of the very best dance celebrations we ever played for! UpBeat also learned special songs for the Father/Daughter Mother/Son dances. Mary became friends with the band during the planning process, and was nice enough to write a review for our upbeat chicago wedding bands on Martha Stewart’s Site:
” …Michael Cascio and the Upbeat Band were the highlight of our wedding day! The learned songs especially for our wedding which we thought was perfect for us because we have a large variety of songs/music that we wanted to hear. They played for hours and no one left the dance floor the entire night. The only problem we had was the people wanted to dance on the furniture (that is obviously against what we signed in our venue contract Looking back at picture, everyone is so happy and laughing and jumping all over. It really shows us how great the upbeat band was! People were chanting - ONE MORE TIME, ONE MORE TIME! after songs that they would play! I can’t thank them enough. My husband and I can’t wait to go see them at festivals or other venues they play at..…” -Mary and Dave

Very exciting performance for UPBEAT ORCHESTRA.com! “In Your Eyes” (Peter Gabriel) was the bride and groom’s first dance - beautiful song, very romantic - Tammy wanted an all inclusive dance party right from the start, and half way through the song, 250 family/friends joined them on the dance floor! This was our typical non-stop variety dance set, and we played one hour, 20 minute sets. Tammy is a huge Celine Dion fan, and we were happy to learn “I Drove All Night” and “My Heart Will Go On.” UpBeat also learned special songs for the Father/Daughter Mother/Son dances. Tammy became friends with the band during the planning process, and was nice enough to write a review for our upbeat chicago wedding band on Martha Stewart’s Site:
” …After meeting with a few different bands in Chicago we decided to hire Michael Cascio and the Upbeat band. Michael took the time to listen to our needs and was always 100% reliable in answering phone calls or emails. The amount of time which he put into planning the perfect wedding was more then we could have asked for. He even took the time to learn songs specifically for our wedding. His talent and knowledge helped create a magical evening with amazing music starting with the ceremony and up until the last song of the night. The dance floor was full all night long!!! We definitely recommend Michael Cascio and his band for your upcoming event…He will not disappoint.…” -Tammy and Sam
