Out of the love for Exotica, Country-Western and Blues comes the music of the Tiki Cowboys! We are the perfect band for your Private Party, Street Fest, Luau, Boat Bash, BBQ, Tenant Appreciation Party, or any event that requires laid back and fun music. Cowboy hats, Hawaiian shirts, and drinks with little umbrellas in them is what our music is all about! The band is a cast of well seasoned professionals of Chicago's music scene, coming together to form their own unique band, the Tiki Cowboys in the summer of 2009. The band's musical influences range from the classic country of Hank Williams and island-country of Jimmy Buffet, to Hawaiian music by "IZ", with roots from Chicago Blues legends like Howlin' Wolf and Muddy Waters. Together these influences combine for the Tiki Cowboys to create a Rural, Tropical, Urban music experience that crosses music genre lines like no other band.

We are available to perform as a Duo, Trio or Quartet with Percussion, Ukulele, Guitar and Bass. Tiki Cowboys also performs with special guests on ukulele, vocals and other instruments as required beyond our core formats.

• The Tiki Cowboys were the perfect band for a fun beach feeling bbq. The music motivated the party to dance as they played. Our condo association was on a very strict low budget. The Tiki Cowboys were fairly priced, therefore we were able to afford to hire them. We will ask The Tiki Cowboys to perform again at next years bbq. -- Denise Mckinney, Chicago, IL, 8/9/2010
