About Dennis Winge /The Way Band
Versatile, flexible, engaging, and easy to work with to create memorable events! If you are planning a private party or corporate event: imagine having the perfect song being played at the perfect volume for all the different portions of your event. If you’re planning a wedding: imagine what it’ll be like when you get to hear and dance to lots of your favorite songs, and everyone else, young and old, has a great time as well! In The Way Band, we pride ourselves on being very versatile & we love to access our extensive repertoire and decades of experience in knowing what to play when, and at what volume. This lets you rest easy that the right mood will be set for each part of your event. Whether your event requires strictly background music or in-your-face dance music, or any shades within those extremes, we are there for you. Our commitment to being very accommodating means you’ll find the entire process of working with us seamless and enjoyable both before and during the event. Because we are flexible, it means you can customize the details: the instrumentation, the playlist, and even tricky set-ups such as different portions of the event being in different rooms or locations, or unusual outdoor locations. The Way Band fosters a personal and family-oriented atmosphere, treating you like part of our own family and ensuring that our wide range of age-appropriate songs keeps everyone involved and happy. Our personalized, interactive, and family-oriented approach to live music gives you confidence that we can and will play something for everyone in your group, even despite very wide age ranges. It can give you confidence that a group of people who don’t know each other well (such as a bride & groom’s families who live in different parts of the country) will come together easily through the enjoyment of the all-inclusive nature and wide variety of the music. We specialize in smaller events of 50 guests or less with our core trio, so if you have a only small party and want a band that will be fun but not overwhelming, The Way is a perfect choice. Having said that, we have also played many events of 200 or more guests and our band’s instrumentation is flexible enough that we sometimes add keyboards, saxophone, trumpet, or all 3 depending on the budget and what is most musical appropriate. What sets us apart from other wedding bands is our love of spontaneity. Unlike cookie-cutter bands, we don't plan our set lists in advance, except for specific requests made in advance. Not only do we curate the perfect songs for each moment of your event, we love interacting with the guests by taking requests, inviting musicians or singers to join us on stage, and even doing group karaoke with our wireless mic! We love to help people celebrate their special occasions and make them memorable for a lifetime! And we do it every single time. That, to us, is "The Way."
Reviews
We thoroughly enjoyed having The Way Band at our campground! They were a huge hit! I would highly recommend them for any occasion. They had a wide selection of music they played from, were extremely interactive with the audience and sounded amazing! Top-notch!
Dennis did an excellent job performing for a surprise proposal. He learned two new songs that I requested and played them to perfection. He also did quite the acting job to help sell the surprise. I could not have been more pleased with Dennis’s musical performance and would highly recommend him for any events!
Dennis was great and he accommodated the audience wonderfully
If I could give more stars I would. Dennis was professional, timely with his responses, and absolutely rocked his show for our Mardi Gras party. We had a very wide range of people (ages 55-103) and he was able to adapt the music so that there was something for everyone. He even got everyone to sing a long with some of the more well known tunes AND took requests! We can't wait to have him again at our venue!
The Way put on a great show for us. All of the guys showed up time, dressed for our theme, and ready to play. The music was great and I would definitely recommend the band to anyone look for some classy jazz!
We recently hired Dennis to play guitar at our engagement party at our new house. It was amazing!! Dennis arrived early to set up and get ready, he played a variety of music, and was very accommodating. My sister-in-law is a very talented singer, and she asked if she could sing Landslide with him. He was very accommodating and announced her and invited everyone to clap for her after. Of course, then my fiance wanted to sing as well, which also went really well. My fiance and I also made a speech with Dennis's microphone, and he offered to introduce us to lead us into the speech, which was perfect. The best part, though, was that I lost track of time, and Dennis ended up playing for a full extra hour because everyone was loving it so much! We included the extra hour in our tip, but he definitely just loves music and loves playing for people, and didn't mind playing extra at all. We don't have a lot of pictures of him playing, but here is one when he was getting us ready to make a speech to our guests.
Didn’t require much direction. We gave him a timeline and he stuck right to it. He was extremely responsive and very prompt. Would definitely work with them again! Thank you so much for everything.
I planned a surprise 40th birthday for my husband from out of state and I knew I definitely wanted a band, but not being from that area made it a challenge. I have to say hiring David and The Way band was the best decision I made for that party. They were so good we even paid for an extra hour! We were singing karaoke at the end, the kids were learning the drums and everyone was just having a blast. I would hands down hire them again and recommend them to anyone.
He has a great selection of music something for evrryone sounded great too!
