September 20, 2024Energetic Cover band!
Chuck Roast is a dynamic and talented group of musicians that rock the house and keep their fans dancing and wanting more. With strong vocals and swift guitar licks, the drum beats are times welln and balance out a rocking setlist every night. With their eclectic mix of classic songs from bands like the Talking Heads and John Mellencamp to newer music by Elle King, there is something for everyone to enjoy with this band. Highly recommend them for your next gig!

August 28, 2024This band is EXCELLENT!
Hired the band for a party of about 70 and had a blast with Chuck Roast. A great mix of music that was curated for the night and performed with high energy and enthusiasm. They showed up early and had set up and sound checked well before the party time, which typically is the opposite of most bands hired and was one less thing to worry about. Everyone loved them and the set of music was great. Some classics mixed with deep tracks across several music genres, which kept you wondering what might come next. That was fun! Thank you Chuck Roast!

About
Rocksteady Riot is comprised of 5 band members: Krista on vocals, Rich on guitar, Devin on Bass, Michael on Drums, and Cris on Keyboards. We are all located in Marin County and have played music and/or been in various bands for years. We all have "day jobs" but really treasure being in Rocksteady Riot. We take performing very seriously.
We love playing Punk, Ska, and Reggae and curate out set lists to be fun and surprising!
Additional booking notes
We love a big stage, lights and full PA system but, if that is not available, we can bring all of our own equipment, including a fun light show. We prefer to play a 1.5 or 2 hour show but are willing to play a 3 hour show as well.
