From the moment we first contacted them to the final song, they were organized, accommodating, helpful, prompt, and attentive to every detail. Their commitment to delivering a top-notch performance was evident in every aspect of their preparation and execution!

Kid Galaga is a 7 piece band (which can expand for larger events) with sax, keys, two guitars, rhythm section and 6 vocalists. A band that’s been rocking stages from here to eternity (OK, maybe from SF to Tahoe to San Luis Obispo!). A band that’s played corporate events for 2K Games, VCA Animal Hospitals, WRA Environmental Consultants, CanDo! Education Fundraising for Schools, various Chambers of Commerce, private birthday parties and more since 2018. A band that covers 70s disco hits, 80s new wave, 90s alternative and the pop dance hits of the 2000s. We’ve got the exact energy you’re looking for and bring the party, every single time, with hit after blistering hit! Most importantly, we have a local following of great fans — we don’t just do corporate and private events, we’re out there on local stages playing to the public! — so you’re GUARANTEED to have a fantastic band at your event. Don’t hesitate, give us a jingle for your holiday party or other event, and let’s make some joyful noise together!
Unlike many bands we will not piecemeal you to death. We provide a basic light show, our LED “pop culture” screens and our full band including sax and trumpet. No extra charges for horns, fog machines, PA systems, etc. We can provide a stage which will ELEVATE our act (see what we did there?) for a nominal fee, as well as other audio packages such as DJ services, dinner music jazz combos, etc. Just say the word!
