Want a dance band? Bill Derry's band has rocked major regional events, large private parties and clubs. Events include the Taste of Tacoma, the Bite of Seattle, the Taste of the Nation and the Museum of Flight and the Seattle Aquarium. They have also performed for many weddings, clubs and festivals.

If dancing is the primary goal, they focus on high-energy, well-known classic rock songs. If your audience is mixed, they add original tunes, jazz and songs by adult-contemporary artists. They will work with you to provide a performance that is tailored to your needs. Got a particular favorite? Tell them, they'll learn it. All performances include excellent musicianship and vocal harmonies.

Bill Derry also performs adult contemporary acoustic music. People have said he sounds like the bluesy energy of the Rolling Stones mixed with the layed-back storytelling of Jimmy Buffett. His acoustic performances have been enthusiastically received throughout Puget Sound, at Whistler, Sun Valley and Napa Valley. Depending on the venue, Bill performs solo, as a duo or a trio.
While he plays mostly adult contemporary pop he likes to mix in a little acoustic classic rock, blues and jazz too. Bill's original music includes a similar mix of styles.

Bill and his band members understand that sometimes you want to be able to talk over the music and think that's just fine. They play with the same fun and high energy guiet or not so quiet.
