What We Do

We specialize in classic and modern rock 'n' roll from the 50's through the New Millennium along with current hits, a sprinkling of Blues and even a few Dance favorites to keep the party moving. Versatility is our trademark. If you want 60's and 70's classics, we've got a whole nights worth of them. If you want oldies, we got 'em. Top 40 pop and rock, yep. Got a younger crowd looking for modern rock, metal and punk, we've got you covered. And if you're looking for a "hair bands of the '80's" style, nobody can touch our hard rock sound. Covering classic hits from Elvis to Lynyrd Skynyrd to Bon Jovi to Alice in Chains to Linkin Park and Disturbed, we have a knack for keeping ‘em on the dance floor as well as presenting a show that is as widely entertaining as it is flat out fun!

With our "shift on the fly" set system, we can cater to each audience and focus on what works best for that group on the spot. We are never locked into the set in front of us and we have the ability to play non-stop sets. Imagine a live band that operates like a DJ and you have a good idea of our strengths. With well over 150 songs, we have enough music to play a completely different show the second night on weekend club shows. We are constantly adding new songs to the list so we always have "fresh" music to play on return engagements. Taking requests is also a large part of what we do.



What We Don't Do

*Start Late

*Take Long Breaks

*Leave Our Garbage Behind

*Drink to Excess

*Play the Same Set Twice

*Behave Unprofessionally

*Ask for Tips

The band is led by Brian Phillips who was was born in Houston, Texas and moved to Denver in the early eighties where he continued refining his chops and finding people to play with whenever possible. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Music with a double emphasis in Music Business and Music Engineering. He has played with several bands both in Houston and in Denver. A couple of the more notable being WaterHouse, Cry Monday and Full Throttle. Aside form his powerhouse vocals, Brian also brings a ground shaking guitar tone and bluesy soloing to the band . His background in Classical adds a nice touch and he knows how to work a room! A consummate professional, Brian sings lead vocals, plays lead and rhythm guitar and handles all of the sound work for the band. Brian plays Jackson Guitars through Marshall Amplifiers and uses Shure Microphones.

Brian also has a solo Acoustic show available to book for any event or venue. The Acoustic show includes popular hits by the likes of Matchbox 20, Elton John, Billy Joel, Jim Croce, Johnny Cash, Poison, George Michael, Bon Jovi, Meat Loaf, Otis Redding, The Beatles, George Strait, Waylon Jennings, The Eagles, James Taylor, Jimmy Buffett, Hinder and many many more.

Both acts can provide sound and lighting for most venues and events.
