So if you're looking for a real rock band to get your party going, and keep it going with a dance party, we are the guys. Mike Hulo is featured on Lead Vocals, Guitar, Piano, and he's simply amazing. Backing is provided by Pete O'grande on bass & Vocals, and Buck Trojan on drums & vocals.

CLIENT FEEDBACK:
Hooch was great at our company event!!! Everyone loved them and their music was awesome. They played fantastic! Thank you~
--Gina M.

We were so happy with Hooch playing at our wedding. We had only heard small samples of their music over the Internet so we basically went on crossed fingers that they were any good. During the entire wedding, everyone kept commenting on how great the band was. Furthermore, they accomodated any requests we had before the wedding and came through in the end. Each member of the band was sincere and helpful and we truely felt they wanted to make 3 hours of music the best 3 hours possible, AND THEY DID!! Thank you so much Hooch!

Hooch went all the way to help us have a great wedding. They played alt all of the requests we threw at them, and they came prepared. They planned many tunes in advance from our favorite groups. Hooch ranged from mellow classics in the early set to dance tunes, to hard rockers later in the evening. They made everyone happy, and we loved Hooch!

Hooch was a smash hit at our wedding. All of our guests from 12-92 years old commented on how good the band was. They have a great play list and were willing and able to perform requests.
We did not feel like we were just another gig to these guys. They listened to what we wanted and went above and beyond to accomodate our needs. They arrived early and in the 5 hour gig only took one 15 minute break. I've never seen that before. Hooch took this job seriously.
Hooch is not only a great band, but is also respectful, professional, accomodating and a lot of fun. Wayne, Charlie & Laurence are great guys and real gentlemen. We are extremely fortunate that we hired Hooch as our wedding band and highly recommend them.

2 words "Hooch Rocks". I had hooch play at my wedding this past weekend and man they turned it out. I gave them a song list which mostly consisted of Red Hot Chili Peppers, and boy did they jam. Everyone was complimenting all night on how much they sounded and played just like the band they were covering. Even the older crowd was impressed. All I know is that I am trying to find another excuse to have shindig so I can here them jam. Thanks Hooch you guys are sick.

Hooch was a great band for our event. They played a lot of great music, and everyone was happy. They knew a lot of requests that people threw at them, and could go from mellow, to rock in a flick of a switch. Awesome group.

The band was excellent! Everyone said that this was the best party they had ever been too, the band HOOCH MADE the Party. They could sing just about anything. We loved them so much that we paid for 2 extra hours to keep them around longer. And at about 12:30am, we needed to quiet down a bit, so the lead singer grabbed his acoustic Guitar and played on the patio. He sang just about every request thrown at him.
It was truely a great experience, we highly recommend this band. The party was for a combined 30th and 50th birthday party...And all the guests loved HOOCH!!!!

Party was a complete success and Hooch was a big part of it! We were celebrating my 40th B-Day and it was a blast! This totally beat having a DJ. Hooch got the people into the party and there was plenty of dancing. I totally recommend Hooch to everyone and I will hire them again for future parties. Hooch rocks!
