2016 Pacific Northwest Harmony Sweepstakes Champions
2019 Pacific Northwest Harmony Sweepstakes 2nd place
2016 #2 Best Local Band in Seattle A-List, voted on by the public
Restless has the experience and versatility to entertain audiences with covers spanning decades and genres - from Bill Withers to Bruno Mars, The Temptations to Michael Buble, and more.
Sporting events to Schools, Bite of Seattle to Taste of Tacoma, surprise proposals, corporate events, weddings, and even the random street corners, these friends love to entertain all types of audiences.
We are also experienced wedding MCs and DJs.
Not only did I find the group to be professional, courteous, fully aware of their audience and special needs, but they are a fantastic singing group. The harmonies are beautiful, sound effects realistic and outstanding,and each member has a spectacular singing voice. They are also prompt, well planned, very organized and do a great job of keeping you informed regarding your event. They worked super well in a smaller venue then expected and made everything work well. On top of all that, they are friendly, funny and all around terrific people. I intend to always have them on my radar. You wont be disappointed in hiring this group!
Response from Restless Vocal Band:
Thank you, Terry! We had a great time celebrating your sister's special birthday with you and your family.
They rocked the house for our corporate event in Bend, Oregon. They sound so good and the play list had something for everyone. They kept the good vibes rolling song after song and every member was featured in multiple songs without a let down. Even the event staff came up to me after it was over and were amazed at how good they were last night. One lady even said that a song brought here to tears. I am not sure where they hid all the instruments? That's a joke, they were just plain amazing!
Response from Restless Vocal Band:
Thank you so much! We had such a lovely time hanging out and performing with you! Hope to see you again soon!
Photos from this event
I used them for marriage proposal at our home while surrounded by friends and family. They were on time and did an amazing job. The group was easy to work with and sounded phenomenal. Couldn’t have been happier and I highly recommend.
Response from Restless Vocal Band:
Thank you so much! We loved being part of such a special day!
We hired Restless Vocal Band to sing at our daughter's wedding and reception. It was without a doubt, the best decision I made! First of all, it was a surprise to the bride and groom! Brian and Angelo were so helpful as we planned their performance under the guise of hiring a DJ. Their ideas were perfect! They sang as the bride entered and as the wedding party exited. The singing (I would say performance but they were careful not to steal the show) was impeccable!
Following the wedding, Restless performed during our cocktail hour. Guests were mesmerized, and seemed to enjoy every minute. We were running late for dinner and because the entertainment was so good, nobody noticed! I received so many compliments from our guests about the group. It made the wedding very memorable for them.
Last but not least, Angelo (and company) helped us dance the night away with their DJ services. As MC, he kept everything flowing. The night was absolutely perfect.
I cannot stress enough how amazing this band is. They were professional and courteous in every way. I would hire them again if the opportunity presented itself!
We loved hearing them sing at our Twinstar Credit Union 77th annual breakfast meeting. They where very lovly. Amazing singers!
We hired 5bit as the "surprise entertainment" for our bride to be! She loved them, the entire party loved them. They sound amazing! They were quick to communicate, affordable and really nice guys. We would highly recommend them for any event! Everyone at the party and the bar we were at loved them!!

Restless always provides professional service and can adapt to the situation or event at hand. Whether you're looking for an all-ages, family show or something a little more "grown up", they will adjust to fit your needs. From outfit coordination to custom song choice, they will give you the performance you desire. RVB has worked extensively with event planners who require specific choreographed movement, blocking and a little acting here and there; RVB enjoys the showman aspect as much as the singing.
Every RVB show is high energy and audience interactive. They invite you to sing, dance and clap along with them but also understand that some audiences just want to sit back and enjoy the music. With nearly 3 hours of music spanning 100 years of top hits, there is something for everyone in the mix. Those booking RVB are invited to look through the song list and select the songs that best fit their ideal performance. RVB also allows custom song requests with an adequate amount of lead time and small arranging fee. Along with stellar vocals, Restless can supply their own top of the line sound system to accommodate audiences of up to 1,000.
Restless is available for shows ranging from small, intimate settings to large fairs or clubs. We even do school events including educational programs tailored to suit your needs.
When you book Restless you get a show unlike many others. Fun and professional entertainers putting unique spins on current radio hits and paying respect to the classic favorites, all done with just the magic of the voice.
It's always a special memory to walk down the aisle or share your first dance to a live version of your song. Start your corporate event with an upbeat rock song. Pull people into your fair with the unique sound that only 6 voices can create. Special requests are available with advance notice.*
WEDDINGS and DJ SERVICES
In addition to being great cocktail hour and dinner music Restless members are experienced DJs and MCs who know how to read a crowd, take requests, and keep you and your guests dancing all through the night. Instead of hiring a separate DJ you can get it all in one package, with one point of contact, including the full sound system.
