The Vipers were featured in New York Magazine Weddings 2010 "The Best".. Here is what they said: .. Regular performers at Cobble Hill hot spot Bar Tabac, this five-man band offers twenties and thirties jazz supplemented by old-timey-style tunes. They are favored by music aficionados the city over, and even musicians themselves: The band played Lisa Loeb's nuptials earlier this year. .... What our private party clients are saying about the band..... This band was the hit of our Inauguration Day party! We held the party at our home, and had families come after school. The band arrived early, allowing time to set up. They were professional in all transactions. They engaged the kids at the party in such a friendly and relaxed way! They had no problem keeping up enthusiastic and diverse music for three straight hours. The parents have been raving about their music and charm since. What a lively sound and energy they bring to an event! .. Andrea Scharff, 1/20/09 Short Hills, NJ .... Dear Chris, Billy, David, and Thom,.... James and I are so grateful that you made the trip to CT to play at our wedding. We can't express how happy we were that you were there. It was so refreshing to hear your music during the night and our quests loved dancing and watching you perform.

"The Blue Vipers of Brooklyn turned the whole damn (Big Tent at The Rochester Jazz Festival) into a swingin' Tin Pan Alley. The Blue Vipers' drummer apparently never graduated from the kitchen, as his whole set up was a lapful of odds and ends that he binged, banged, whacked, and attacked with thimbled digits like a Dixieland foley stage." By Frank De Blase on Jun. 15th, 2008, Rochester City Newspaper .... TAXI A&R review .. Oct. 5th 2007 .. "Excellent musicianship and cool, New Orleans/Ragtime/Dixieland Jazz elements. Very Nice all around with a solid vocal performance, as well. .... TIME OUT NEW YORK KIDS.. Oct. 1st, 2007.. BEST LIVE MUSIC BRUNCH :THE BLUE VIPERS AT SUPERFINE .. "Throngs of children and their minders head to this loft like Dumbo eatery on Sundays ready to rock out, and not to kiddie tunes from some lame band." .... IDOL UNDERGROUND .. GOTHAMIST Aug. 5th, 2007.. "The Blue Vipers of Brooklyn made us think of an act that we would hear on A Prairie Home Companion." .... CONCRETEBEAT .. March 2007 .. "The Blue Vipers of Brooklyn are a rare treat even in New York City." .... LINCOLN CENTER OUT OF DOORS .. Aug. 20th 2006 .. "The Blue Vipers of Brooklyn play old-time music from 1910 to the 1940's, just like your hip great-grandma's great collection of scratchy 78s." ....
