August 25, 2025I hosted a party with over 120 guests at my home last weekend and hired Next of Kin to perform. They were absolutely fantastic! The band played a wide variety of music—including requested dance hits—and had everyone engaged, from kids happily dancing to adults raving about the performance.
I received countless compliments from my guests on how incredible the band was, and I couldn’t agree more. They created the perfect atmosphere and kept the energy high all night. I will definitely hire them again for future events and strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a talented, professional, and fun band!

Next of Kin is comprised of brother-sister team Paul Geasland and Nikki Green and features guitar phenom, Arnie Vilches. The project was born from a desire to form a high energy Acoustic Rock group that really gets the crowd going. Although they are all highly experienced they don't take themselves too seriously! They truly enjoy the music they play. The trio can perform at smaller, more intimate venues as well as larger scale events. Adding 1-2 members for an expanded group is an option as well. All three band members have extensive experience, having performed all over the world. They've played with some of the biggest names in the industry, including Mark Farner, guitarist/frontman of Grand Funk Railroad, Bobby Kimball, former lead singer of TOTO, Bill Champlin, singer/songwriter/keyboardist for Chicago, and more. They are out to have a good time and play all of your favorites so you have a good time too!
Adequate power required. That is all.
