THE JON BATES BAND is a phenomenal group of great musicians and vocalists. Performing together since 1989, they have played at many high profile venues, clubs and events around the world. In addition to their own unique musical offerings, they have shared stages with and provided backup for some truly legendary performers (for those who like to verify and dig deep for credentials, there's plenty of info available on all your favorite search engines - get your motor runnin!). BUT, most of all, this is just a soul based party band with a reputation for great energy and making folks feel REAL good!
