November 2, 2018Wonderful band
The band was awesome, my guests really enjoyed them. They were also very communicative prior to our wedding and made the effort to learn new a few new songs for us. They also performed their DJ duties flawlessly. I would recommend them.

What to expect
Expect the... unexpected? No, that's not what you want to hear. Planning an event is hard and you've got a lot of details to manage. With Cake Fight you can just hit the easy button and count on a rocking good time.
About
If you want a lively band that knows how to have fun, look no further than Cake Fight.
We'll put on an energetic show that will have all your guests on their feet and dancing in no time. We play a little modern pop, a little classic rock, and a little of everything in between. A typical set could include everything from Dua Lipa, to Devo, to the Doors. So, everyone from your teenage niece to her grandfather will be singing along to their favorite songs.
We can provide a full sound system including lights, lasers, and thumping bass to get the party started. We'll show up early, be set up on time, and hit the first notes right on cue. We sweat the small stuff so you don't have to. And we have fun doing it!
**DISCLAIMER: No actual cakes will be harmed in the course of your event. Unless it's a wedding. Or a birthday. Or any event where the guests will eat cake.**
What people say about us:
"We LOVE working with Cake Fight. Anytime we hire them, our guests compliment the music and leave us positive reviews. More importantly, they pack the house. What is normally a somewhat tranquil, quiet winery quickly becomes a joyful dancing hall full of intoxicating energy. Small children to retirement aged guests ditch their tastings to cut a rug and sing along. Our staff dances their way through their shifts with a smile. We highly recommend locking these folks in for your wedding or private event." – Eastwood Farm and Winery
"They are lively and fun and can get a group up dancing with familiar song selection as well as update versions of many songs. You will have a night of fun if you hire Cake Fight to play!" – The Pub @ Lake Monticello
Additional booking notes
We can provide:
- Sound system with thumping bass to get people dancing
- Disco dance lights and lasers
- Pre-recorded music during breaks
What we need:
All you need is love... Well, in our case, love and a couple power outlets.
We're a five piece band which means we can start a party almost anywhere. Small stage? Large stage? No stage? Not a problem for us. Just give us a place to plug in and we're good to go.
