Description
Every now and then a music group comes along that defies definition, category and convention; a group that has that certain something. The X-Factor.
Armed with a vast amount of talent and experience, X-Factor signals the return of the era of great bands. With an eclectic repertoire of songs from some of the greatest artists of our time, X-Factor puts a refreshing spin on classic R&B, funk and rock. Drawing from these influences to create their own sound, the band has put together original songs that showcase their background and experience without sounding like every other wannabe pop cliche.

- The X-Factor Band was awesome. Not only did they do an outstanding job, but the members wants to make sure that we secure them for the next event. X-Factor catered to the ages of all that attended our Spring Fling event. Overall it was tastefully done.
Thanks X-Factor.

- X Factor played at our recent family retreat in North East, Maryland. The outstanding musicians and supreme female vocalist, Jay Bird, produced a high energy show that had everyone dancing almost non-stop for two complete sets of music. The group played contemporary and oldie but goodies and adjusted on the fly to play requests from the audience. The audience was fully engaged as Jay Bird shared her tambourines with the crowd. The sound man kept checking to make certain that the musicians were not overpowering the vocalists. Anthony Rucker, the group's leader, was very professional and honest. We highly recommend X Factor and would use them again. -- Wc B, Northeast, MD, 7/27/2008
