Skynyrd and Johnny Cash are in our repertoire too. We cater to your needs. Contact us today to see if we are a good fit.
We had Astronaut Junkies over for a house party during football season. They were a tremendous hit with our guests. They play a wide range of cover songs like rock, country, pop and oldies. They were able to answer a number of requests by guests. We will definitely be having them back!
This band is awesome! I would highly recommend this group to anyone looking to hire a band for their Wedding, Birthday Party, Halloween Party, or main event. This band played for our 4th of July Party and rocked the house! They were the life of the party! So thankful I had this group to keep the night going strong. They cover hits from the 70's, 80's & 90's. They are sure to please a crowd of all ages. This group is professional. Shows up early for set up, and stayed to hangout. Definitely the band you want to book for your next event. These guys rock!

You can expect a professional experience. From the pre planning to the open and responsive communication we are very easy to work with. We do NOT play originals. We play covers (your favorite songs that love hearing on the radio)
Before we accept the gig we will talk to you to make sure our style will be appropriate for your event. We can tone it down and play a softer dinner set or crank it up and really get the party going. We cater to your need. If for example you want a jazz band we would politely decline because we know we would not be the right band for you. We only want gigs we know we will please the crowd and please our customers.
The crowd can expect good music to be played and to have a great time. It will be hard not to get out on the dance floor. We play at the appropriate volume and can easily turn down per your request if needed. We try to play many unique songs that people like but most other bands don't or can't play. We can also M.C. the event and DJ when spots are needed and in between sets. We understand from experience that events don't always go as planned so we will roll with the punches. For example, at a wedding reception we can stop playing on a signal or extend a song if needed. We know sometimes the speeches go longer than expected or folks eat quickly and are ready to dance earlier than expected. We can adjust and adapt to the crowd very easily.
We have all been playing music most of our lives. We got together back in 2012. We have played restaurants, bars, 6 Flags Over Georgia, Killer Creek Harley Davidson, Wedding Receptions, Parties. We love playing rock music and more specifically 90s grunge, alternative, and pop punk. We also have some reggae and hip hop up our sleeve. Our passion is putting on a memorable show and engaging the audience with high energy and familiar fun songs they can sing along, dance, or rock out to. Contact us today with questions to see if we are the right fit for you.
Common sense stuff only required for us. We are pretty easy to work with but due to past problems I will mention a few major things. We need a working power outlet. Preferably 2. Clean power that is grounded properly and won't shock us. We can run extension cords within a reasonable distance (20 feet). If an outdoor venue we need cover if rain or snow is expected. We need a stage or just a flat area separate from rowdy audience members. If a stage is unavailable then anything you can mark off to give us boundaries really helps. Even cheap Christmas lights can help mark off an area for the band. We can squeeze into a 10 ft by 10 ft area but the bigger the better. We can't have uninvited audience members onstage disrupting the performance and endangering anyone's safety or our equipments safety. We need your help with crowd control as we are focused on entertaining everyone.
