Thank you for an awesome night! You all ROCKED it! The music and energy was perfect! Also, thank you so much for making a difficult task of planning a party and booking a band an easy one! You were OUTSTANDING to work with. It was so awesome seeing my parents have a great time and it wouldn't have been possible without you guys. Everyone was talking about how great you guys were. Thanks again! Hope to party again with you guys real soon! ????

Angela, spokesperson for the band, is the absolute sweetest person to work with. And the band was just phenomenal! My guests are still gushing about how much they enjoyed their music and how good they were. I loved their repertoire. The dance floor was never deserted once the band started playing. Dancing was non stop! Thank you so much, guys! Hope I have the chance to engage your services again in the future.

DeNovo delivered! All of the band members are pure quality, they know how to get the crowd going and they sound amazing. I loved the extensive song selection, there was something for everyone. Special thanks goes out to Angela!!! She was amazing to work with, very kind, patient and positive. She was spot on with everything. I loved how she worked with my sister to keep things flowing and going smoothly, I did not have to worry about anything. She is a pro and she gets things done! I will most certainly book DeNovo for my next event and recommend them to anyone who is looking for quality entertainment!! THANK YOU, DENOVO!!

De Novo was fantastic. They looked and sounded great. They worked with us from the beginning to make sure their music fit our needs. Angela is so personable, friendly and easy to work with. We would definitely use them again. -Karen G, Groton, CT


Dear Angela,
You guys rocked!!! You absolutely delivered a perfect cross generational, super fun playlist that had everyone on the dance floor all night!!
Your interactions with the crowd were perfect, and you were right, other than the fireworks display break, you’re playing barely skipped a beat.
I want to thank you and the band for making my wedding night so memorable and fun. I had an absolute blast. I didn't want to leave the dance floor (I barely did in fact:)).
I would be more than happy to give you a reference or write something for your website. If you have any perspective brides, I'd be more than happy to speak with them.
You guys play from your hearts, it was evident that you enjoyed what you were doing and you incorporated the crowd into that energy.
Thank you so much, I am forever grateful.

Angela: Thank you for doing such a great job at my wedding! We got such positive feedback about you guys and will definitely recommend you in the future!!"

"De Novo was fantastic! They made coordinating the music portion of our wedding so easy. We had to plan our wedding across the coast, in Los Angeles and Angela was very patient and willing to work with our odd schedule. Not only that, the set they put together for our wedding reception was incredible. It fit the high energy level of our guests perfectly and lifted them even higher. We all lost track of time.

In addition, the talent of the band is awesome! "What a Wonderful World" was playing and I had my back initially turned to band. I thought it was a CD playing, but was pleasantly surprised to see the Keyboardist was singing! WOW! Great Band!"

"Excellent band - very communicative and accommodating. Great selection of music for cocktail time and post-dinner dancing. Very talented musicians - particularly guitarist and bassist. They were a pleasure to work with and enjoyed by all our guests."

"Dear De Novo, Thanks for helping to make our party a success! It was great working with you!"
- Vinnie and Antonietta

"De Novo really made a special event memorable for my whole family. Not only did they drive a great distance, but they also were understanding and supportive of a venue change. I could never understand anyone having any issues with this band. They have an unbelievable sound and i found myself dancing to songs and thinking "wow, they sound just like the original artist." I not only would recommend the Band but i hope to be able to hold an event and hire them again. Thank you to Angela Slocum, who made it possible for De Novo to perform at my mother's 60th birthday! THANK YOU TO ALL THE PERFORMERS OF DE NOVO FOR A PHENOMENAL EVENING!
