I went to George's on Dickson Street to see the band Hot Lix. These guys were in the front room which was a surprise. Didn't know there was a band in the front that night.
THESE GUYS BLEW ME AWAY! They NAILED every song they played. LOVE THEM! Probably go see them again!!

What to Expect
Raised On Radio will take an audience on a fun filled trip through time via music!
There are many bands playing tunes from the 80's. The difference is E CAN HIT THE NOTES! No Free Bird. No Brown Eyed Girl. No cry in your beer country songs. No, what you get with Raised On Radio is FLASHBACK, FUN, AND A YOUTHFUL NIGHT (or day) OF UN-ABASHED FUN!
BE PREPARED TO PARTY LIKE IT'S 1985! If you want an 80's themed party.... THAT'S WHERE WE STARTED!!! We specialize in 80's music. We're not LIMITED to the 80's, but it is our strong suit.
Raised On Radio can provide a full PA complete with recorded music before, between sets and after show (you will SWEAR you're listening to your favorite radio station BACK WHEN!
If a DJ is requested we can provide that service as well. Also all lighting & special effects are provided as well if needed.
Shows typically run between three to five, 45 minute sets with 15 minute breaks between. Don't worry, BE HAPPY, 'cause the music won't stop! We will keep the tunes rolling as the band recovers! (We are very flexible regarding length and timing of playing time.)
About
"The Ultimate 80’s & MORE Party Band"
Based in Northwest Arkansas, Raised On Radio, formerly 88 Miles Per Hour, is a band of ADULTS with real jobs, but at night & on the weekends, they break out the AQUA NET and RE-LIVE the big hair days! Fun loving and always entertaining, the band takes its audience BACK IN TIME to days of past. Playing tunes by bands YOU grew up listening to!
In 2009 Robert & Elizabeth Mann started the band with Elizabeth Singing & fronting the band and Robert on guitar.
"We all had to grow up and get real jobs, but we never outgrew our love of music" says Robert Mann. "We all know we're not going to be the next Bon Jovi, but that shouldn't stop us from living the FANTASY on the weekends. Plus we ALL need a way to relieve stress that comes with life in the real world!"
There just aren't many bands out there that play this style or mix of music. There are many bands playing 70's and older music, Modern Metal, 80', 90's and so on. ROR focus' on fun songs, memories from the past and songs not a lot of bands play. ROR doesn't limit their-selves to one genre or decade. But, understand, the 80's is the bands strong suit!
Raised On Radio has it's own PA, Lights and can provide DJ services if needed.
No party or event is too small or too big. Raised On Radio is the PERFECT band for your wedding, party, special event or CLUB!
1.21 GIGAWATTS OF ROCK TO THE ROLL! Raised On Radio plays music we grew up listening to on.... THE RADIO!
