Jetpack has been featured on MTV, DVDs, TV & film, national record labels, and shared the stage with surf guitar king, Dick Dale. With over 15 years experience, Jetpack is also So Cal's most hired & best reviewed fun for all ages '50s&'60s surf party band, playing Knott’s Berry Farm, Huntington Beach Surf City Marathon, The Port of L.A. July 4th fest, LAX Coastal July 4th parade, an ACE Hardware national commercial shot in "Surf City" and more. Music includes surf rock/ '50s & '60s pop hits made famous by The Ventures, Dick Dale, The Shadows, Link Wray, Mancini, and exotica/lounge and movie themes. The real deal in authentic instrumental SoCal surf music!
Jetpack was the perfect band for our Barbie Beach Party movie night. They went the extra mile to dress up for our Barbie beach theme and even updated their logo with the Barbie colors. Their surf music was perfect and created a festive and entertaining atmosphere for our HOA event. Even though our guests can be a bit reserved, many got up from their beach chairs and started dancing :) Thank you Dan, Jennifer, Marco and Mark!
Jetpack is a group of skilled and talented musicians. Our audience has not always been so much of a dance crowd, but they had them dancing along to every song. Great band for a dance.
JetPack had lots of videos to view on their profile so I already had a good idea of their vibe. They were so great and their performance was above and beyond my expectations!! We had all ages at my party from 2-6 yr olds to 65s. Everyone had a blast and enjoyed the music so much. I’ve hosted this summer party for the past 10 years and this was THE BEST. They are also very nice people to boot and we had a great time chatting after the show. Thank you SO MUCH. See you next year! 🎸🥰
These folks are the BEST!
They were super professional & easy to work with before the event to figure out all the details & they were totally on the ball as far as doing everything they said they would.
They had the most amazing energy and contributed so much positivity and fun to the party.
...AND THE MUSIC - was brilliant! Every single guest was asking where we found them, and was in love with the vibe that was created through the day which was a big part due to the music being so stellar. And then of course there was Go Go - the hippest dog around.
Thank you so much Jetpack! We are now huge fans and can't wait to keep seeing you all live in the future!

Jetpack was absolutely amazing! They were punctual and set up early in order to play as soon as our guests arrived. The music was stellar - even better than the YouTube reels online! Our guests really enjoyed the ambiance they created and many friends mentioned they enjoyed chatting with them between sets as well. Although it was warm out and they had to navigate many stairs to get to/from the "stage" they were on board and ready to party with us all! I would hire them again in a heartbeat.
Jetpack was professional, timely, and most important, their music was awesome. They are supremely talented! Everyone at our event thought their performance was fantastic!
We hired Jetpack for our wedding at Howl Adventures in Long Beach, and they totally blew everyone away! Dan was very responsive to our emails in the lead up to the event and we couldn't be happier with their professional, performance, and style. Rave reviews from all of our guests, I simply can't recommend them strongly enough.
Jetpack made my party. Every guest wanted to know how I found them and I wouldn’t be surprised if more bookings came from my event. I never expected dancing at an 80th birthday party but they made it happen.
Their music was just the sound I was looking for. Jennifer’s saxophone is incredible! The whole band is great. They were fun and they had fun. They showed up early and were ready to go. They showed integrity from the beginning of our communications so I was never concerned about the band for my stressful event.
Thank you to all the band members but especially to Dan and Jennifer. Best of luck!
Response from Jetpack:
Thank you so much for the kind words and also for throwing such a great event! We are so happy we surpassed your expectations of a band for hire. We really did have a blast! Perfect location, amazing food, and great people!
I've been following this band for a while, ever since seeing them perform at a car show in El Segundo. We hired them for a private party, and it was EPIC!! Spot-on performance, and their music made our private party the most memorable event ever!!
Great Band! Great Sound and Vibe!
We hired Jetpack through GigSalad for several events and they were excellent and people really enjoyed their music and "look".
Lots of fun. Highly recommend.

Classic surf music = Perfect cocktail party!
I needed a surf band to play at my backyard Tiki cocktail party, not just any surf band, but one who played classic Ventures style music. After watching Jetpack's videos, I knew they were the band I wanted, and they did not disappoint!
Communication with the band before the party was easy, and made the night go very smoothly. They were very self contained, only requiring power (they even brought their own disco ball!). The music was exactly what I wanted for the evening, and it felt like they played non stop without tiring. The guests absolutely loved them, and they set the tone of the party perfectly.
Just to illustrate how amazing they sounded, as some guests were gathered on the front lawn, they had cars stopping and asking them who the band was. And we even had some neighbors tell us the next afternoon that they were sitting in their own backyards listening and enjoying a cocktail. In fact, one neighbor even told us that this was the best "neighbor noise" they had ever heard.
If there was one complaint, it was that we didn't book them for a longer time and that the party had to end. Jennifer and Dan were an absolute pleasure throughout the entire process, and were extremely personable with all the guests. I highly recommend Jetpack, and I will absolutely use them again!

Great Surf band.
We loved having Jetpack play for our cocktail hour at our wedding. They are the real deal and love the music they play. They were exactly what we hoped for. Almost a year later our guest still mention how fun Jetpack were.

Kobi, you and your staff are great to work with and we loved the event. I do not know why your text is missing and displayed in place of what you wrote are other reviews instead. Must be some html goof or format error? But thanks for the 5 stars!

Response from Jetpack:
If invited to Moria's party- GO! We had a fantastic time just being there. Great hosts- great guests. Thanks for the food and drinks. We will definitely come running next time you call. I have to say, Moria knows her surf music history! She wrote us asking not for a Beach Boys type band (which is music ABOUT surfing, but widely not considered "surf music" by genre historians and authorities) but a real authentic surf- meaning instrumental- band "like The Ventures". Needless to say, we all got along famously.

Response from Jetpack:
Thanks Michael! What a great set-up and wonderful wedding. A true pleasure to play for an aficionado of our material. AND thanks for coming to see us play since then!
We hired Jetpack through GigSalad for two different events - a woodies car show and the El Segundo Car Show. They were excellent and people really enjoyed their music and "look".
Lots of fun. Highly recommend.
Response from Jetpack:
Thanks for the review, Tara- don't know why it is listed "unverified". I guess you are writing from a different email than the one you hired us on through Gigsalad? No matter- we remember you! Both fantastic events with such great people. Thanks for having us play...and then play so soon again!
Price Range: $400 min.
Gig Length: 60 - 240 minutes
Jetpack puts on a show- even supplying a light show as well. Audiences can expect era-appropriate looking dress, guitars, amps, and of course...sounds. You'll even find the lovely rhythm guitarist and winds player performing with three saxophones: tenor, alto, and soprano.
Jetpack is known for mid-century instrumentals and surf, but you can also hear '50s classics, small combo jazz and swing numbers, country-western stompers, and a few surprises too.
MTV, The Sharper Image, Fuel TV, and more have featured the original surf/instro stylings of Jetpack. Based in Southern California Jetpack has shared the stage with Dick Dale, Gary Hoey, and other surf/instro guitar greats. Jetpack has releases on labels such as Pascal Records, Vitamin Records/CMH, and Sugo Music.

The band is old-school and self-regulates their sound levels. The sax player even has an amp so the band does not require a PA system or mixer, but can also supply their own when need be.
