Young Love and The Thrills

Young Love and The Thrills is a full-time, Boston-based wedding band available for weddings, corporate events, and private parties across New England. The 9-piece ensemble, featuring three lead vocalists and a dedicated sound engineer, is known for creative covers, custom medleys, and mashups spanning genres from 70s funk to Top 40; couples can work with the band to build a custom song list from ceremony through reception. Named Best of Boston Wedding Band by Boston Magazine, the band has played over 1,000 weddings together and includes members who have toured nationally and internationally with acts such as Noah Kahan, RIPE, Soulive, 311, O.A.R., Paramore, Robert Randolph and the Family Band, and James Brown. Based in Boston, the band travels throughout New England, serving Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Maine, and Vermont, including Newport, Cape Cod, and Block Island. Reviewers consistently describe the band as highly engaging, noting that the musicians read the room, accommodate specific song preferences and do-not-play lists, and keep guests of all ages on the dance floor the entire night; several couples highlight the band's willingness to add instruments such as horns and to incorporate unconventional, crowd-pleasing elements mid-set.
