Cory Hotline (Rockyard band)

Words can’t express how amazing the band was! We hired them in 2020 for our wedding that got postponed, and we finally had a reception a few weeks ago, and was sooo worth the wait. Iv never been to a wedding where EVERYONE was on the dance floor. They play something for everyone and they have such an amazing vibe and energy. You can’t go wrong having them at your special event! Can’t wait to go see them play in Toronto again, everyone at my wedding is asking to see them again.

Amazing - The best money we spent on our wedding was spent on this band

This band is truly exceptional. Securing live music for our wedding was a top priority, so much so that we shifted around our budget, skimming from decorations to ensure their presence. This was a decision we emphatically didn't regret - the band made such an impression, no one even noticed the lack of flowers.

The lead singer, Matt, is exhilarating to watch on stage. His robust energy and impressive voice brought an extra dimension to our party. The proficiency of the instrumentalists was equally remarkable, adding to the overall high-quality entertainment that we'd hoped for.

Their performance was enthusiastically received by not only our wedding guests, but also the venue staff - seasoned pros who see countless bands come and go. They complimented us for having the "best band they'd ever seen", an affirmation of our choice.

We're so thankful for the energetic and melodic backdrop they provided at our wedding. A huge thanks to the band for their contribution in making our day even more special. If you're considering hiring them - simply put, they're outstanding!

Professional as they come

Rockyard are consummate professional musicians, they performed during our reception. Their music is flawless and their repertoire vast, as during the reception they started to take requests from the crowd, and to our surprise could play every song that had been asked. At no point did Rockyard have any difficulty with our requests (I even asked them to play a punk rock song for our first dance). The band was on time, prepared, well dressed and played to the crowd. They made the best day of our lives that much better. It was worth every penny and I highly recommend them."

A classy event

Rockyard blew my wedding guests’ socks off! I honestly do not know how to write a better review about this crew. The Band brought the level of class up at my wedding. Live music, and from such a talented bunch, playing epic tunes throughout the night! “What a Show!” is the response I’ve been hearing from all my wedding guests, since attending. This band truly has talent, both on the individual level, as well as at the band level. Rockyard was a good call and what a night of dance, celebration, and salutations, CHEERS! Thanks for making our wedding a memorable, classy event!

This band are insane!

We hired them for our belated wedding reception/party, after finding them on Instagram. They surely brought the house down and epically exceeded ours and our guest’s expectations. Conor was efficient and attentive to our requests. Their quirky, rock style had them killing rock classics and jazzing up their spin on modern chart hits. They even killed “It wasn’t me” by Shaggy. Our guests went wild. Rockyard are a fun bunch of awesome musicians, who know how to break barriers while staying professional. I would recommend them to anyone wanting good quality music at a reception or party! I would definitely collaborate in future! Thanks again fellas!

What a night!!!

I think every guest at the wedding commented how amazing this band was. So much fun, energy levels were off the chart and their performance overall was just fantastic. Everyone had a blast and these guys were a huge reason why. Highly recommend them to anyone who wants to turn their reception into a rockin' party.

Wedding Booking

Rockyard is an extremely talented band who preformed at our wedding reception. The band was willing to book with short notice and was very attentive to my emails/inquiries. I did not have any knowledge of the band prior to booking and they did not disappoint! I would highly recommend these guys!!!

Best Wedding Band In Existence!

The most common compliment that we had on our entire wedding was that our band was the BEST. I have never in my life seen 2 encores for a wedding band, but it happened, and it was amazing! Nobody wanted to stop dancing! They are extremely talented and had absolutely everyone on the dance floor!! I cannot recommend them enough! You will have the best party ever with these guys!
