The Mighty Nish Band is a high energy rock band whose unique sound comes from their ability to mix popular songs from the 50's to the present with powerful four part harmonies, unique arrangements and a touch of humor. The performance is not just a collection of enjoyable songs but rather a fun interactive show with audience participation. Once the dancers are on their feet the Mighty Nish Band keeps them there with a tight rhythm section and impressive solos to entertain the dancers and listeners alike.

Everybody asks, "What is a Nish?" Once the music starts they find out that a Nish is a party and the Mighty Nish is a party band. People will be on their feet with smiles on their faces. Everyone will be talking about that great band with the crazy rock and roll accordion – yes, accordion. A Nish is just plain fun for all ages.

• We had the Mighty Nish Band perform at our wedding reception. From the start, Jason and the Mighty Nish Band were extremely professional and GREAT to work with. They were a blast at the wedding! They chose songs that kept people dancing all night. There were people dancing and having a great time who usually sit and watch. We had NUMEROUS people come up to us that night asking, "Where did you find that band?" We are still getting comments even weeks after the event about how fun it was and how much they loved the band. If we ever throw another party, or have another event we will have The Mighty Nish Band back before a DJ! I highly recommend them! 5 STARS! -- Kristi C, Ames, IA, 5/3/2008
• The Mighty Nish Band was an absolute hit at our wedding reception! They were very professional in their handling of everything, and their performance had our guests on the dance floor all night, beginning with their first song. The guests loved the audience interactions with different songs, and an engaged couple at our wedding is now interested in booking them for their wedding next summer. Awesome, awesome, awesome band!! -Annie & Ryan Peyton -- Annie B, Iowa Falls, IA, 8/1/2009

• The Mighty Nish Band was a huge success at our Fly Iowa Kickoff Ceremony. They were very easygoing and very willing to work with the surroundings. The only reactions I got from the crowd was that the band was amazing and everyone wanted to know when we we're going to have them come to King's Pointe again. If you want to have a night full of entertainment check out the Mighty Nish Band, they're sure to please ANY type of crowd. -- Holly G, Storm Lake, IA, 8/8/2008
