Young Love and The Thrills

Young Love and The Thrills is a professional wedding band based in Beverly, Massachusetts, comprised of some of the most experienced and highly trained musicians in New England. The band's members have collectively toured around the world, performing in venues ranging from intimate dinner clubs to 20,000-seat arenas, and have shared stages with notable artists including Noah Kahan, 311, O.A.R., Paramore, Arturo Sandoval, and James Brown. The ensemble operates as a consistent full-time lineup rather than a rotating crew, with the same dedicated personnel performing throughout each season. This approach allows them to play with the intimacy and cohesion of a touring band. Young Love has been peer-verified by Verified Boston Wedding Bands for maintaining a dedicated musician lineup. The band specializes in creating highly personalized repertoires through their signature "Sentimental Years" concept, which draws from the musical era spanning clients' late grade school through college years. Rather than relying on overplayed standards, they curate setlists designed to evoke specific memories and emotional responses tied to formative moments like first kisses, high school crushes, and summer breaks. The seasoned yet young lineup of singers and multi-instrumentalists understands crowd dynamics and tailors performances to match the energy and vibe of each specific audience. Young Love serves all of New England, including Boston, Newport, Cape Cod, and venues throughout Massachusetts, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Vermont, Maine, and Connecticut. The band has received WeddingWire Couples' Choice Awards annually from 2015 through 2020 and multiple Best of Weddings honors from The Knot.
