Hotelheads have successfully performed for dozens of weddings, private parties, clubs and corporate events up and down the east coast and we specialize in delivering energetic and engaging arrangements of current and classic hits. The band showcases an eclectic mix of current and classic rock 'n' roll, 80’s & 90’s pop/rock, folk, funk, country and many of the hits from today!
In addition to a full-service event band, we also offer smaller, customizable configurations for any type of event or acoustic environment. If space is an issue or if the vibe is on the quieter side, we recommend our acoustic duo or trio, capable of setting just the right tone!
I hired Hotelheads for a surprise birthday party for my wife, and they were incredible! Great dancing music, communicative and easy to work with, and really talented musicians. Would definitely book them again for a similar event.
Response from Hotelheads:
It was an absolute pleasure working with you Jordan from beginning to end. You threw a great party! Kudos and wishing you both all the best!
Fantastic
