An energy unmatched by any other band in Colorado (cover or original), The Average Joe Band is a four piece cover band with talented musicians who play more than one instrument at a time. The result is the full sound of a larger band with keyboards and background percussion. We play music that spans generations from the 1960's to the current hits of today, pop, rock, country, dance, and even a punk rock tune. We NEVER use click tracks! This is not karaoke. Our vocals are extraordinary along with backing harmonies and front man capabilities for any event, party, or club. We have professional sound reinforcement from a state of the art PA system, and can accommodate stage and lighting rental if required.

Our band members are professional and will strive to understand the needs of your event, party, or club. We can accommodate special music requests given sufficient time.

One of the things that sets the Average Joe Band apart from other variety/cover bands aside from our great sound is our ability to entertain the audience. As a "wireless" band, we bring the band to the audience and the audience to the band. We do not confine ourselves to the stage and we make audience participation a main part of the entertainment, all while providing exciting and great sounding music.

This is not a stuffy variety band playing the same monotone key and sounding more like lounge lizards than a band. This is the real deal. Real music! Real people! Real energy! And, REAL GOOD!

When you book Average Joe for your club, special event, festival or private party, you gain the confidence of knowing that the band members are professionals who have been successful in the business community for many years. We take pride in being great communicators and buttoned-up businesspeople... not flaky musicians!

Over the past few years, Average Joe has become established as one of the top cover bands in Colorado. We also do business events and private parties, festivals and charity events. We arrive well-rehearsed, well-equipped and ready to put on a high-quality and entertaining show. We have full sound capabilities including PA and monitors, mixing board, mics, etc. for venues & clients that do not have their own sound equipment.

Attractive rate packages are available, based on location/travel, show duration and sound equipment required. We have a full PA, mixing board and stage lighting available as required. All shows include our four piece band. We will customize sets and tunes for your event whenever possible. Shows usually consist of "sets" of a forty-five minute (1 set) duration and we have enough material for about four and a half sets (4 hours).

• Average Joe were phenomenal. They accommodated all my client's special requests and performed professionally. They are very talented individuals with a propensity towards keeping a crowd motivated as well as entertained. They arrived early, set up quickly without disturbing others, worked independently so I could concentrate on the event details, and reached out to myself and my partners when needed. I would highly recommend them for any event. -- Donovan L, Beaver Creek, CO, 3/20/2010
• These guys are the greatest band ever! They are so professional, nice, and the talent that exists is world class. If this bad did originals, they'd be touring stadiums. They setup quickly, got everything to sound perfect, and accommodated all of our special requests. Our CEO was so surprised and Mitch (singer) even went the extra mile to help me setup the surprise and act out the scheme. It was AMAZING! The whole Vail resort was laughing hysterically. What a great time for the whole company and thank you Average Joe Band for being at the top of your game! I will definitely hire you guys again and our CEO wants to have a party just to have the band play. -- Susan B, Vail, CO, 12/19/2009
• I could not have asked for better entertainment! Not only did they accommodate us on extremely short notice (no other band would), but they went out of their way to insure that our party was the best event of the year. They are professional, set up their equipment early, and then helped us set up. As for sound, they are better than the bands who orginally did the songs. Wow! We were all very impressed. Their sound system was fantastic and their ability to perform was like going to a concert in a big stadium. They even came out onto the dance floor to dance and sing with the audience. It was so much fun I will have parties just to have them come and play. -- Jeffrey L, Littleton, CO, 12/5/2009
