DESCRIPTION:
Since 1994 River City Band has entertained in Clubs, Festivals, Weddings, Anniversaries, Private Parties, Concerts, and Corporate events throughout the Northwest. Playing a wide variety of music from the Fifties to present day hits, RCB GETS YOUR PARTY STARTED! RCB will get you out on the dance floor and will have everyone singing along! We love to interact with and entertain our audience.

River City Band is comprised of four multi-talented professionals who all sing. Featured are three and four part harmonies, and switching of instruments during performances. River City performs with wireless instruments so we can be in the middle of the dance floor inspiring everyone to join in the fun.

If your event starts with dinner, RCB will lay it back with light jazz and easy listening. When you are ready to dance, RCB will step into high gear and pack the dance floor!

No matter what your special requirements, you can depend on The River City Band to make your event a success! Our Motto: "If you don't want to have a good time, you'd better stay home"

River City has been featured in the Columbian newspaper and in the national magazine "Making Music"

Corporate party? Grand opening? Home town celebration? Wedding? We can cover it. If you want dependable, fun, flexible, and professional, you want RCB.

You are ready for your wedding! Gowns & tuxes, Chapel, reception hall, invitation lists - the date is set, now you need entertainment. You need.....fun, experienced, live musicians interacting with your guests, hand-clapping, dancing, singing, a master of ceremonies to announce cake cutting, first dance, garter toss, special announcements, etc., a wireless microphone, help with the photographer/video coordinator and capture it all - you need us!

Food for thought from "Wedding Planner extra:" For entertainment at the reception, a DJ is nice, like sitting in your living room with friends listening to your favorite music. A live band, on the other hand, is like being part of the music. You can experience the music being created and be part of it.

    CLIENT FEEDBACK:  

    We hired River City Band to play at our wedding reception at the Governor Hotel in Portland, and were more than happy with them. They are all a bunch of really friendly and cool guys, and most importantly they are very talented. They more than met our expectations and they played great music, had great vocals, and interacted with everybody dancing. Basically these guys really rocked. They played great songs, and stayed away from all of the cheesy "wedding band" songs. I would reccomend them for any event whether it be a casual party or a formal wedding, these guys will guarantee a good time with great live music. I would definately hire these guys again.

    Hiring ANYONE off the internet can be handwreching. It was comforting to hear from River City Band frequently up until the time they arrived one site. This foursome really rocked the house! They proved to be very accomodating to the crowd keeping everyone on their feet dancing the night away! Members of our club gave me kudos throughout the night for finding such a great group for our New Year's Eve event. We would DEFINITELY consider River City Band for future events and would not hesitate to recommend them to our friends. They were awesome all around! Thank you Gigmasters for providing such a great service! Mona-Lisa Bremerton Yacht Club Bremerton, WA

    River City Band performed at our private event for approximately 100 people. All comments I heard from guests were extremely positive. The band contacted me several times prior to the engagement to make certain all bases were covered. They were on time, they were professional and, individually, quite pleasant. The band was more than willing to be accommodating for the space used, noise level, types of songs played - and they knew all requests. They were a joy to work with. I would recommend this group to anyone. They are not only talented, they also added a very fun dimension to our party.
