Rocket Town is a very special Houston Wedding and Party Band that plays wedding receptions and private or corporate parties in the greater Houston Tx area. We've got some of the top musicians in Texas. We cover all your favorite dance songs from the 50's through today's current pop hits. We are a Houston Variety Band, so we play all styles!
When it comes to crowd involvement, we connect. We play requests, sometimes allow sit ins, and get people dancing, even if we have to get out there and dance ourselves! High energy, high quality, non stop fun - book Rocket Town today for your Houston Wedding Reception Band or Houston Corporate Event Band!
The whole group was excellent. We planned a destination wedding in Houston and they were above what we expected. Troy would always get back to me within 24 hours at the latest. They accommodated all of the requests (even the last minute ones). Great music - a mix of hits from the 70's, 80's, 90's and today. Multiple band members so it gives them range to do a lot of songs.
We planned for everything to be outside and the forecast called for rain in the afternoon the day of the wedding. The venue had an indoor back-up location, although it was not ideal. I bring this up because the owner of the venue had told me during our rehearsal the night before, that Troy had stopped by earlier in the week to scout out the place and plan for rain. He didn't need to do that, but it meant a lot to us how serious they took our day.
Response from Rocket Town:
Thanks so much Jay! We had a blast and all the family was very easy to deal with. You were an awesome host as well. Blessings on your marriage!!!

We show up on time, with top notch sound and lights. Sometimes we photograph or video our performances. We are a fairly large band (7 to 8 members), so we need adequate space onstage.
Our sound system is wireless, and we use in ear monitors, so we can usually play whatever volume is best for the crowd, whether that is pretty quiet or really loud.
We are somewhat of a show band - we have some little comedic things we do, and we continually strive to involve the crowd in our show. We might get one of the attendees up on stage to "help" us with a song or two.
We play requests, but we play hits, so if the request is kind of off the wall, we will probably play something similar, but more popular.
We are a classy band. We don't get drunk at shows, and we don't curse. We try not to do anything that would get someone fired from a "real job".
We play a lot of classic stuff - not just rock, but anything and everything that people know and love. We cover line dance songs, country, rock, and lots of pop favorites. Our calling card is our vocals. We do pristine harmonies on very difficult material that we have rehearsed for many hours. Nobody does vocals like Rocket Town.
Can can work with any venue, client, individual to craft the show that works for your event. We are professional, flexible, and ready to rock.
