Howdy!

I have a couple of private events to plan this summer in Bell County and was hoping to book a party band. I am primarily interested in one that plays late 70's and 80's rock, pop, dance, and R&B music.

Does anybody have any suggestions or recommendations for a band in the Waco, Temple, or Killeen areas that can play an event in Bell County? I have checked Austin, and they are mostly professional bands that start at $3500. These are small events and we cant afford that...

We need one that can play a gig for about $1500

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks!

I would look into trying to book "Sprung." Great band that plays a lot of 70's and 80's covers.

Will check out "Sprung", but if they are anything like the many Austin bands I have talked to, they will be way out of our price range

I have talked to several and they are anywhere from $3500 to $14,000!!!

Thanks

No idea on cost, but they are probably too expensive. They are soooooo good though.

Anybody familiar with "Rewind" out of Waco?

I was just about to say check out Rewind. I just saw their band trailer because they live in the area. I have no idea how good they are, but they do 70's and 80's music.

If you want to let me know how to contact you, I can give you contact information for my son. He usually does not bring a full band, just a three member group, but would be in your price range.

Rewind plays at my club multiple times a Month. They're good and very reasonable

Played our wedding and can do anything. 80's pop music? Jazz? R&B classics? Country and Western? They play it all and very well.
