Artie:

What’s going on? Well, Nicki and I are back from the South Pacific and settling back into reality. Thank you so much for everything you did at our wedding day at the Palace. It was a blast. Let’s chat about anything we can do to help promote you and we would be happy to be a reference in the future.

Specifically, we absolutely loved Eyes of the World Acoustic (Amazing!) Life during Wartime, Blister in the Sun, the Shakedown with Mitch and of course you learning both Water in the Sky and Let Me Lie. And, the Tamborine Man was just perfect. So many highlights and memories. 

Will be in touch soon and please let us know what can do to help you out at all.

Michael,

Monica and I just wanted to give our warmest thanks to Artie and the band for a great evening. They helped us throw a wonderful party and we were repeatedly complimented on how great they sounded. We especially want to thank you for getting us Rock Strings. We honestly had no idea what to expect given that we did it all with you over the phone, but they came out and blew everyone’s minds.

Lastly, our planner told us that there’s a chance we’ll get into Martha Stewart Weddings so hopefully we have chance to give you guys some more props in a more public forum.

Thanks again,

Monica and David

Dear Artie,

We can’t believe we have been married for almost 10 months! We feel so lucky to have had such an amazing day at Oheka Castle. We can’t thank you enough for all of your hard work and dedication in planning our wedding celebration. Thank you for taking the time to speak with us on so many occasions to plan our song list and make sure all of the details were perfect. Your ability to sing every song at the drop of a dime was extremely impressive. Your musicians and singers were terrific. All of our guests had a great time. Thank you for making our wedding day all we could have dreamed of and more.

Love,

Tim & Julie

Dear Erik, Artie, & the band,

We would like to thank you for the absolutely awesome job you did performing at our wedding at the Vineyard Caterers. You had all the guests out on the dance floor just as we’d expected. It truly was the best day of our lives!

Thanks a million!

Jennifer & Brendan

Dear Artie & the staff at Hank Lane Music,

On behalf of Ella and myself, we want to thank you with all our heart for your brilliant work on our wedding day that truly made the affair such a rousing success. Though months have passed since the occasion on September 1st, the memories of it all are still fresh in our minds. And the soundtrack for those memories will always and forever be set to your brilliant music.

Having just received our wedding video and reliving that momentous day, we were rewinding the incredible orchestrations and lively tone you set as our band. Not to mention the gracious personality that Artie displayed throughout the evening as a band leader. It truly made the difference between a good wedding band and a great wedding band. And so you know we have received compliment after compliment on your work and countless requests for your information. Considering that many of our guests were musicians or musical afficionados themselves, this is the highest praise you can get!

We would also add that long before the wedding, Artie was a warm, witty, creative and a comforting person to work with. He took in all of our musical requests, added his own great insight, and always made us feel confident. The result was a flawless playlist that made the affair so very memorable.

Artie and the staff of Hank Lane are comsummate professionals through and through. We wouldn’t have cahnged a thing and in many respects wish we could relive it all! We are happy to recommend you to everyone we know and would glady provide a reference if needed. We cannot thank you enough!

Love,

Brett and Ella

Artie,

Lisa and I got back from our honeymoon Sunday night and it is an absolute priority that I email you and tell you—

YOU ROCKED!!!

People can’t stop talking about how good the band was. We had the best time dancing non-stop. Your renditions of the songs we requested were STELLAR!! The phish crowd loved the phish, the beatles crowd the same. The dance music was incredible.

We will recommend you to everyone we know, and please feel free to forward this to Hank Lane.

Thanks for making our night so special.

Hope to see you soon,

Lisa and Paul
