Video Showcase
We can play the traditional wedding hits all day, but what sets us apart is our medleys and ability to go beyond the cookie-cutter soundtrack.
Couples are always looking for ways to make their wedding stand out - and what better way then the music?
Choose from our versatile 6-15 piece Chicago wedding bands - All Music Genres.
The name Funktastic is more than a genre of music - it’s a tight-knit family of stellar talent with a finely and meticulously curated repertoire spanning every style of music.
Pick anywhere from 6 to 15 of us based on your guest count, venue, and vision! Multiple members in the rhythm section sing and are multitalented, ensuring a full and authentic sound for every lineup.
We want you to hire us with one goal - to turn your wedding into the party of a lifetime for all of your friends and family. We take the songs that you pick out from our expansive Song List and turn it into a true concert experience. The recipe for us includes seamless song transitions, engaging with the crowd until your guests are all singing along with us, and 7 song requests outside of our list that we learn just for you! We invest so much time perfecting your custom songs that couples often reference them in our reviews about how we've played some better then the originals.
We go above and beyond to make the music planning process enjoyable and collaborative for you. Introducing our exclusive app that integrates seamlessly with your Spotify account. Say goodbye to spreadsheets and hello to a streamlined and effortless music planning experience.
​With our app, you have full control. You can preview songs before adding them to your playlist or do not play list, ensuring that we have the right versions of your favorite songs for special moments like your ceremony and bridal party entrances. We believe that music planning should be fun and stress-free, and our app is designed to make that vision a reality.
