About us: We are an established dance band that plays mostly covers from the 60’s through current, covering a wide variety of styles as long there is a dance beat.

We occasionally also play unplugged/acoustic music.

Our drummer recently retired, so we’re looking for an experienced drummer who can start us off at the right tempo, has a good feel for the pocket on relaxed vs. energetic songs, and can play softer when needed to help us keep the stage volume down. We love to learn new songs, and we ask everyone to practice at home and come to practice ready to work on the ensemble. In addition to being a band, we are all friends who enjoy the social time at practice. So its important to us that everyone in the band is easy-going, willing to compromise and generally shares our progressive views.
If this sounds like something you’d be interested in, please contact us ASAP if you have any questions about us and to set up an audition.
