June 25, 2024Dan and Bill were AWESOME!! Excellent music choices, all of our guests were complimentary of their performance. The event lasted into the night and they played an additional set for us.
I would rate this experience as one of the best ever. Highly recommend these guys for any venue big or small.

March 27, 2024These guys rocked out for the Scouting 4 Eggs Adult Easter Egg Hunt (www.scouting4eggs.com). In a chilly spring day these two jammed and kept our 1,000 guests entertained for hours!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

When you hire us, you get two professionals who will make your event special. We can be quiet background music (appropriate for fine dining) or we can be the life of the crowd (getting people to dance and sing). We will cater to your needs and make the whole experience easy and fun.
Chester Copperpot consists of Bill Ferguson-Wagstaffe and Dan Tabeling. Playing in bands for over 20 years, they have been all around the country performing in everything from large venues to tiny hole-in-the-wall establishments. Bill sings lead vocals and plays rhythm guitar. Dan plays lead guitar, sings backup vocals and also plays some rhythm at times. Even though there are only two performers, they use accompaniment that they recorded in the studio to make it sound like a full band is playing. That way you get the full experience without needing a 4-5 piece band.
We honestly only need a power source that's less than 100' away and a 10' x 10' flat space to play. We will take care of the rest. If you are supplying the stage/sound man and want us to use your PA instead, we will need 2 DI boxes for our mixer, or a snake that's less than 12' from our set up.

Rock/Pop/Folk/R&B/Country/Jazz from the 70's to present. We cover such a wide range of music that our influences are equally as wide.
We need access to power, and if it's an outdoor event there needs to be a plan for inclement weather. We can provide everything else necessary to perform the show.
