Frantic City

Frantic City is a high energy Rock Trio or Quartet playing popular songs from the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's to today's current hits. We can also provide DJ services in between the live music for continuous music for the duration of the event at no extra charge. We can even provide full DJ sets of the music that you select as part of the performance so you get a band and a DJ in the same package for your event.

If there is a genre or artist that you do not see in our song list we will either learn it or DJ that selection for your event. Need Jazz, Hip hop, Classical? You want it you get it Frantic City works for you.

Frantic City plays a wide variety of popular songs whether the crowd wants to dance, sing along or rock out Frantic City will provide the experience. The band features two and three part harmonies; our full sound is often compared with much larger bands.

We have been together as a band for over 15 years and never cancelled a booking and have never received negative feedback from our customers.
Our musical skills have been the rave of over 250 Parties, Weddings and Private events since 2002.

Customer Feedback

Chris, Stacey and Remo were FABULOUS!! We held an outdoor party for about 100 guests and Frantic City was the highlight! They sounded awesome and got all the guests up and dancing. We want to host another party just to get them back. From the very beginning Chris made it super easy to communicate with them about their playlist and other details. He was organized and really helpful. Thanks guys, you're the best!

Frantic City was awesome. Chris was very personable and worked with me in every aspect of the party. My guest loved the range of music played, and handed out several business cards to friends after the party! I would 100% hire them again for an event.!

Frantic City played for our reception party and were fantastic. Chris was very accommodating and flexible with all of our last minute requests and changes. They were very easy to work with. They sounded excellent and I got a lot of compliments and questions on how I found them. Several of my friends got their contact information for future parties! If I ever have an event again that calls for a live band, I will definitely have Frantic City come back. Very professional and a lot of fun!
- Robin O. 6/27/2015 Wedding Reception in Norfolk Ma, 6/27/2015

You guys sounded awesome and everyone loved the show. A lot of people asked about the band & were super impressed. Thanks for playing "we're not gonna take it" for Colin too. He said he was all excited to hear it live and then he ran for the hills! I think he couldn't handle the limelight = )

Frantic City did an amazing job entertaining a very diverse crowd. They are extremely talented musicians AND entertainers. I highly recommend Frantic City. The Hartford Windsor Marriott staff also complimented Frantic City on their professionalism. Chris was professional, flexible and accommodating when working out the logistics for the evening. If you want a band that will blow you and your guests away then hire Frantic City!
- Haideen S.,Connecticut Ski Council's Annual Snow Ball - Saturday, 11/16/2013, Hartford / Windsor Marriott

Frantic City performed for our wedding reception and exceeded our expectations. The talent, professionalism, and flexibility of the band blew us away. Chris really worked the crowd and got everyone on the dance floor. We highly recommend Frantic City to anyone looking for a great rock band!
- Alex W.,Wedding Reception Amarante's, East Haven CT on 6/1/2013

Wow! Frantic City is kick-ass! We love rock music so we booked them for our wedding after-party. At first, we were nervous since we never heard their music before. That aside, we can say only great things about FC. From song to song, they take on totally different styles/sounds with seamless transitions & range...very impressive with only 3 people. Our guests LOVED them & they were the highlight of our party. We're thankful to FC for their energy/passion & learning some songs for us. We highly recommend them & you WILL get a fantastic & professional show. FC made our wedding much more than we imagined!

-Elizabeth L, 5/5/2012, Bar Mitzvah, Pittsfield, MA

It has been two weeks and I am still getting compliments on the band. They were fantastic and I would hire them again without a second thought. If you have a chance to see them play or a chance to hire them for your party, you would be crazy not to!!

Frantic City was awesome. Thanks for a fun, rocking evening.
-Haley F, Chappaqua, NY, 6/3/2011

Frantic City were great. Band is super tight and full of energy. Terrific performers whether room was full or not. They were very easy to work with, patient with last minute timing, and adjusted to varying needs at the event. Most importantly they are great musicians and a lot of fun to have playing an event. Very, very satisfied.
-Christopher R, 3/27/2011, Bar Mitzvah, New York, NY

With all the great comments about you guys after your performances this year we would certainly love to have you back again next year. Would July 4th Weekend be good for you? We could do Saturday the 2nd or Sunday the 3rd, whichever works better for you.
Please let me know when you can. Thanks guys!

Frantic city was a pleasure to work with. It was my first time hiring a band for a private party and they were so accomodating. My husband knew he was having a 40th birthday party, but he didn't know that I had a band waiting for him on the back patio. He was thrilled and loved the party. The music provided by Frantic City made the night. All of our guests were impressed with their performance. I would definitely recommend them.
-Christine C, 7/3/2010, Birthday Party (Adults), Southington, CT

Frantic City played for my husbands 30th birthday party. They learned a couple of special request songs and were a pleasure to deal with. Chris was always very quick to respond to my questions. They have the feel and sound of a larger band with the benefit of them not taking up too much space. I was very impressed w/ their level of talent and I would highly recommend them. If you have this group to your event - you won't be dissapointed!! THANK YOU FRANTIC CITY!!! - Sara D. Sandy Hook. CT.
-Sara D, 8/22/2009, Birthday Party - Adults, Sandy Hook, CT

First I'd like to thank Stacey, Remo and Chris .(THANK YOU!) Not only where they great musicians, a great band but they where GREAT people. Everything Chris said would happen did. From arrival time for set up, start time for the show, breaks, everything! I asked Chris if he could play a special song for her. Adam Sandlers "Grow old with you" from the movie the wedding singer. He googled the song and learned it in time for the party. It was awesome, it made her cry.I already asked to booked them for the same weekend next year for my sons 13th birthday.We had a GREAT time Everyone loved it from my mother and mother-in-law to my youngest neices and nephews.
-Keith B, 7/25/2009, Anniversary, East Haven, CT

I have never hired a band so I was uneasy hiring one I wasn't familiar with. After their playlist caught my eye and checking with a prior venue of theirs gave me good feedback, I hired Frantic City for my husbands surprise 40th Birthday party. They were amazing! They WAY exceeded my expectations. Frantic City is a very talented, fun, energetic, professional, accommodating, down to earth group. They interacted with the crowd to keep everyone entertained through the day. My husband and guests had a great time and some commented on how they would hire Frantic City if they had a party. Thanks Chris, Stacey & Remo for making our party one we will never forget!
-Lisa D, 7/18/2009, Birthday Party - Adults, Windsor Locks, CT

They were an amazing group and sounded fantastic at our event. Frantic City was extremely professional and a complete pleasure to do business with. The group interacted with our audience so well, which was very important to me. Frantic City has great sound and a great range of songs to keep people entertained. I recommend this band.
-Gina M, 4/27/2008, Festival, Danbury, CT

-Lia W, 1/13/2007, Birthday Party - Adults, Cheshire, CT

Being a 3 or 4 piece band Frantic City requires a flat set up area of at least 12'x16' and there should be at least 2 power outlets. If the performance is outdoors during the day a tent or pavilion would be ideal to protect the band from the sun. If there is threat of rain and the event is rain or shine the customer is responsible for providing a tent for band coverage or an indoor area for the performance.

We will always require time to set up our equipment before an event. We must set up our equipment in the actual playing area prior to the performance. This setup takes between 1.5 and 2 hours. We are happy to show up at any time before the event to complete the setup. Because of the time it takes to set up take down and travel we have a minimum performance booking time of 2 hours.
Thanks
