Overview

The Nola Dukes Band is the function band that is not a "Function Band".
With regular showcase performances and a free demo CD you can see and hear them live before booking them, and pick and choose the size and configuration of your dream band. These full-time professional young musicians focus squarely on getting your night up and jumping, but without the cheese. Best of all, they are self-managed, so they are much less expensive than other bands in this quality bracket – you are not paying any agents or middle-men! Pricing from $2020 - $7520, depending on band size.

Best Night!

I cannot say enough good things about the Nola Dukes! From the planning process to the day of my wedding, we felt completely taken care of! They answered all of our questions and made our ceremony and reception perfect! I loved every minute! I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting a band for their reception! I’m already wanting to plan a party just so I can book them again!

Blown away!!

We never stopped dancing! Talented, professional, kind - they’re the best! Thank you for the most memorable night. Our guests are still talking about the music and I’ve had 3 calls asking for the band’s number! Best choice we made!

BEST OF THE BEST

NOLA Dukes Band is a first class organization of the finest caliber musicians. The nine piece band that performed at my Kings party was nothing short of spectacular. Punctual, professional over looking every aspect of party planning. Thank you Randi and company for such a wonderful experience.

What a night!

Nola Dukes was so much fun to not only experience but also to work with leading up to event. Randi is so easy to get in touch with and discuss the music for your evening. They are tremendously talented and so great at playing music that caters toward what you want and what will keep your crowd moving. We could not have been more pleased with the final result! Everyone we spoke to asked about the band because they were such great performers. We truly love Nola Dukes and would recommend to anyone looking for a great band...

AHHHHHHHHMAZING!!!! Book now!

My now-husband found these guys because he was in charge of music; both because he’s much pickier in this arena than I am, and also because I really have no idea what I’m talking about. I loved being able to go see them play at Little Gems Saloon ahead of time, and I immediately loved their energy and allllll the options working with them offered. We started looking early and considered many bands, but we kept coming back to NOLA Dukes. We couldn’t find the energy or options anywhere else. Once we started working with Randi, I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt we had made the right choice, and it was worth every penny. Randi walked the two of us through every step, brought up things we had never thought of and provided solutions, added a second-line band and took care of all city permitting and PO organizing, helped us figure out ceremony music last minute when we had no idea what we wanted, added an extra horn when my husband decided he couldn’t live without one at a NOLA wedding...all in all, incredibly helpful, thoughtful, kind, supportive, proactive, easy to reach and the end result was amazing. Our guests had an unforgettable time and nearly a month later folks are still getting in touch to tell us how amazing it all was. I’d go with these guys over and over and over again. If you’re not sure what you’re doing and want someone to walk you through things, or if you know exactly what you want, NOLA Dukes can do it all and we are so so grateful to have booked them, worked with them, and have them do our wedding absolutely perfectly. Thank you Randi and Co!

About

The Nola Dukes Band is the function band that is not a "Function Band".

With regular showcase performances and a free demo CD you can see and hear them live before booking them, and pick and choose the size and configuration of your dream band. These full-time professional young musicians focus squarely on getting your night up and jumping, but without the cheese. Best of all, they are self-managed, so they are much less expensive than other bands in this quality bracket – you are not paying any agents of middle-men! Pricing from $1980 - $5500, depending on band size.

They play all your favourite songs! The Nola Dukes Band can play all the classics and 70s, 80s, 90s etc, and all the latest stuff too – from Frank Sinatra and Chuck Berry to Black Keys and Beyonce – and everything in between. Although this band was built from the ground up to fill the dance floor, they are all trained jazz musicians, who are just as happy to play cocktail music, acoustic covers, and all of those tunes that work best at the beginning of the night, before the party has really fired up! But when it is time to fill the dancefloor, this is when the band really excels! They pride themselves on knowing exactly the right songs to play at just the right time to pack your dancefloor. See their website for a full list of tunes that they can play, plus live recordings etc…

The best musicians in town! Choose between 3 – 14 full time professional musicians who play with the likes of Alicia Keys, Gotye, Kanye West, Stevie Wonder, Beck & Tony Bennett, to name a few. At their regular showcase viewing nights you can check out the band in action, and see for yourself why this young band already has an enviable reputation in the industry. They are truly different to any other band in town. Come and see them live to experience the "look and feel" that sets them apart from the pack.

They've played for the best! Many of America's major companies and institutions rely on the Bachelor Boys to fill their dance floors! Regular clients include: Mercedes-Benz, Hilton Hotels, Caesar's Casino, US Air Force, NYU, L'Oreal, ABC Television, NBC, and many many more. The Bachelor Boys are experienced, and well… they just know how to rock a party!!
See website for more details.
