The Story of Burning House Band... The band acquired its name when their drummer's house burned down on the night of their first job in 1990 and he showed up to play anyway. Then on job #2 there was a fire next door to the club where Burning House was playing! Over the first year, there were over 14 fire related events, from burning houses, to outdoor tents and everything in-between so... the band members took this as a sign and named the band accordingly... to this day they strongly advocate fire insurance! Burning House Band has performed during our 19 year history at many State, County and City Festivals along with Church Fairs and Carnivals throughout Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland and New York. In addition we continue to enjoy our #1 status as the most popular dance band in our marketplace. Nightclubs, Country Clubs, Corporate Events, Weddings, and Specialized Functions like Benefits or Fund Raisers request our services to guarantee their event is a great success.
