The Sweetbeats

The Sweetbeats is a seven-piece wedding band based in Boston, Massachusetts, founded in 2007 by performer and Berklee College of Music professor Serge Ioannisyan. Each member is either a professor or alumni of Berklee College of Music, bringing professional musicianship and performance experience to every event. The band consists of two to four lead vocalists, keyboard/keytar, guitar, saxophone, bass, and drums, with nearly all members performing wirelessly to interact directly with guests on the dance floor. The Sweetbeats specialize in soulful, high-energy performances that keep guests entertained throughout the reception. Their extensive catalog spans classic rock, contemporary top 40, R&B/soul, jazz, Latin, hip-hop, dance, pop, country, and acoustic styles, with all music customized to couple preferences. The band is willing to learn new songs for special moments and provides music for ceremonies, cocktail hours, receptions, and rehearsal dinners. Beyond musical performance, The Sweetbeats offer bilingual MC services to help direct the flow of events and make announcements. They provide their own professional sound equipment and carry liability insurance. The band serves Boston and surrounding areas in New England and New York, and is willing to travel to destination celebrations. The Sweetbeats have earned WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards annually from 2015 through 2026 and The Knot Best of Weddings awards every year from 2013 through 2026, including Hall of Fame recognition.
