We were looking for a wedding band and came across Murray Hill Talent and the band Virtue. Having been to so many weddings, we had strong feelings on what we did and didn’t want. The band was receptive to our ideas but also shared some helpful tips from their experience. It helped us create the experience we envisioned and the memories of dancing the night away will never be forgotten. Virtue assisted us with sound and music for the ceremony and cocktail hour and when the full band kicked in, the energy was infectious. These folks are so talented, you will not be disappointed. Five stars! We hope we have an excuse to hire Virtue in the future!
Nora Sizemore, 11/9/24 Wedding at a home in Tiverton, RI -
We hired Virtue to be the band at our wedding and it was the best decision we could have made! From the planning stages to the last dance, the experience was flawless. We used the band’s keyboardist for cocktail hour which worked out great. The band was able to learn a specific song for our first dance which was one of the most important parts of the night. We were so grateful, as we really had our heart set on that song! The dance floor was packed with all ages. My 10 year old niece and 80 year old grandmother dancing together is something I will never forget! Thank you, Virtue, for helping us create such special memories!
Lance & Abby Karpowski, 10/19/24 Wedding at the Lyman Estate, Waltham, MA -
Murray Hill Talent were wonderful to work with for our wedding. Flipside performed during the reception and they were incredible. All of our guests were blown away by the music and loved dancing the night away. Corin was super easy to work with and quick to answer any questions we had. Tom Pendergast played during the ceremony and cocktail hour and was also incredible. I’d highly recommend Murray Hill Talent to anyone looking for live music at their wedding!
Kaly Tonis, 7.21.24 wedding at the Bradley Estate, Canton, MA -
Had a great time working with Cory and Scott at Murray Hill for our January wedding! Corey was super responsive and got us set up with the perfect DJ. Scott was a fantastic DJ and so easy to work with. We had a great initial planning meeting and were all on the same page. He did a great job with the ceremony and sound levels! We had very specific music we wanted to use and he made sure that happened. Scott kept the dance floor busy with a nice mix of genres that catered to the varying tastes of our guests. Everyone commented how great the music was the whole evening! We had such a great time celebrating, and music was a big part of it! Would highly recommend Scott and Murray Hill!
Felicia McGinnis, 1/10/25 wedding at the Barn at Gibbet Hill, Groton, MA -
We booked Scott for our DJ and added on the photo booth and uplighting. We can not say enough how truly incredible our DJ was. There was not a minute that the dance floor was empty. Scott knew how to play all types of different songs that people of all ages could enjoy, he truly made the entire night. The process of booking him and planning the wedding was absolutely seamless. Do not look any further, book Murray Hill Talent- WORTH IT!!!

Closing Time went above and beyond to make our wedding unforgettable! The seven-piece band brought incredible energy to our reception, keeping the dance floor packed all night. We also hired their pianist for our ceremony and a guitarist for cocktail hour, both of whom created the perfect atmosphere for each moment. Our guests had an absolute blast—thank you, Closing Time!
