My Monday Band isn't just about playing songs; it's about creating a moment. A moment where a whole room sings along to a classic hit they'd forgotten they loved, where the dance floor is packed, and where the energy is absolutely infectious. We are a five-piece cover band from Noblesville, Indiana, dedicated to bringing the best rock and pop hits of the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 2000s to your event.
The heart and soul of our band is the unique and heartwarming dynamic of our father-daughter vocal duo, Steve Ricker (on bass) and Audrey Olry (on keyboard). What started as a fun way to spend Monday nights making music together has grown into a polished, high-energy act. Their shared love for music and natural chemistry on stage is what makes every performance special and engaging for audiences of all ages.
Rounding out our powerful sound are three seasoned musicians: the intricate and soaring lead guitar work of Derek Van Natta, the solid foundation of Randy Surette on rhythm guitar, and the driving, in-the-pocket beat from our drummer, Graydon Lower. Together, we are five dedicated musicians who simply love this music and love performing it for people.
Our setlist is a carefully curated journey through some of the best decades in music, featuring crowd-pleasing anthems from legendary artists like Tom Petty, Fleetwood Mac, The Cranberries, U2, Amy Winehouse, and The Black Crowes. We pride ourselves on choosing songs that are instantly recognizable and fun, ensuring that every guest at your event feels connected to the music.
Beyond the performance itself, we are committed to providing a professional and seamless experience for our clients. We bring our own high-quality sound system, including a front-of-house setup, to ensure the audio is perfectly tailored to your venue and your guests.
Our goal is simple: to make your event fun, memorable, and full of great music. We can't wait to work with you!
