June 6, 2016I've never hired music talent for a party before and didn't know what to expect. Brian was incredible! He came early, stayed late and did a wonderful job playing hits that everyone loved. We had people stopping us as they left and calling us the next day telling us how much they enjoyed his talent. I absolutely recommend him to anyone.

We provide the full band experience, complete with PA.
Three guys, one BIG sound. No autotune, no phony backing tracks.
The set list focuses on the smash pop/rock hits of the 80's (see our set list!).
With the sound system, we can also provide DJ-style dance music to keep your guests moving during our set breaks.
We are seasoned, professional musicians from southeast GA who grew up in the 80's and cut our musical teeth on the MTV era. We lived it & now we’ll help you re-live it! We are more than just bass, drums, & guitar. You won’t believe it’s just three people playing!
We travel light and require low space for a full band.
Other requirements include:
1. Power access with separate outlets.
2. Flat, dry surface for equipment set up.
3. Adequate lighting to see while setting up & tearing down.
4. Load in access for vehicles.
5. Shows in excess of 90 miles one way may require additional charge for band lodging.
