Meet Jack Faulkner
My professional musical journey began during my senior year of high school. I was fortunate to be mentored by the father of a classmate, a renowned bandleader in the Philadelphia area. Throughout college and the years that followed, I was a sought-after musician, performing with leading bands in the city. This experience provided me with an invaluable firsthand understanding of the elements that contribute to a truly successful event.
How We Started
My wife, Catherine, was doing the same work around town and acquiring the same experience, so in the late 90s, we decided to combine our talents and form our own band.
While we were constantly on the road with our Philadelphia-based band, we were simultaneously planning a wedding in Catherine’s Massachusetts hometown. We remember how stressful it was trying to plan our wedding in the midst of our busy lives.
From the outset, we made it a priority to alleviate this stress for our clients, and even try to make the ensuring a smooth and enjoyable planning process. Fostering a respectful and supportive environment for our musicians has also been a very important to us. Something we hear all the time: “Wow, I can tell you guys are really having fun up there.”
Kind Words From Our Clients
“We couldn’t be happier with Jack Faulkner Orchestra ! They played at my sister’s wedding five years ago and were incredible then, but somehow, they were just as good/even better at ours! From the first song to the last, they had everyone on the dance floor. The energy, talent, and vibe they brought were unmatched. They truly know how to read a crowd and keep the party going. I lost count of how many compliments I received about the band—it was clear they made the night unforgettable for everyone! Jack is a joy to work with, and his passion for what he does shines through in every performance. Highly recommend!”
