About David Rothstein Music

Founded in 1999

I had a dream to create a music company that plays all the music you love regardless of trends. I wanted to give you an above and beyond experience that helps you tell your love story through our band playing all your favorite songs! From the moment we meet you will know you’re in good hands. I'm a balance of using the latest technology and old school ethics of how to treat people with kindness to help you get everything you want for your wedding. Wouldn’t you love a music company like this for your wedding? We provide all our couples and clients like you with consistently packed dance floors, custom-tailored schedules, a state of the art sound system, and so much more. Our events range from 500 guests at the Drake Hotel to a dinner party with 30 of your closest friends. Our goal is to make your wedding or event 100% successful based on your specific needs. We also provide you with special resources that you can make your schedule and music requests fit in with exactly what you envision. The bottom line is that we listen to you more than the average wedding band. We’d love to give you a wedding that’s designed around what’s important to you! We think you’re special. You have a story about who you are, how you met, and what you love together. We want to hear all of it. While all our awards, reviews, and celebrities we’ve played for are wonderful, all that matters to us is making your wedding amazing! We work hard to create unique touches to make your wedding as meaningful and personal as possible. If you’d like a music company that truly cares about you and your guests for your wedding, David Rothstein Music is perfect for you!

How would you describe your entertaining style?: We play a wide of songs based on your preferences and most importantly what your guests are dancing to that night. Watch our videos and see our photos to see how great we are at packing your dance floor. We have a complete ceremony music department and Jazz Trio for Cocktails.
Can I work with you to customize a playlist?: We give you unlimited song requests. We have a huge songlist. We give a song request form where you can tell us your favorite styles, songs and artists. You can also tell the songs not to play. About 20% of our songlist are requests we've only played one time for one specific client.
How many musicians and vocalists are in your band?: We have an 8-piece Orchestra which includes (Piano, Bass, Drums, Guitar, Male and Female Vocalist, Sax, Violin/Percussion and DJ/Vocalist ). The 11-Piece Adds a 3rd vocalist, Trumpet and Trombone.) We also provide a Jazz Trio (Piano, Bass and Sax) as well as a complete ceremony department.
Is someone available to act as the emcee?: Yes David will act as your designated Emcee. His only job is to make all the announcements. He will work directly with you and all your vendors. The band will be there 100% to play music. Having a separate MC is a huge advantage since he will be accessible to you and all your vendors all night.
Can I listen to you perform before hiring you?: All our videos are from recent live real weddings. This way you'll be able to see the actual musicians and guests. When a band gives you a highly edited studio recording, you don't know who the singers are, when it was recorded, + most importantly, if the guests will dance. We show you what you get!
