The Nomad Band performs live music from all styles for all occasions and at all locations. Music that ranges from Instrumental Jazz, Big Band, Funky R & B, Top 40, and New Orleans. The Nomad Band will allow you to customize multiple music packages for any Corporate Event, Reception, Wedding, or Private Party. Choose from a small combo to a large 10 piece contemporary ensemble for your event. The Nomad Band has been performing together for the past 15 years and consists of some of the best versatile performers from the Bay Area and around the world with successes from touring and recording. Led by Damon Hope (NomaD), we have played in such venues and events at the San Francisco Exploratorium, Yoshi s, Pier 48, and the Americas Cup and in cities like Boston, NYC and Vegas. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ "Having worked alongside Damon at countless events with a variety of groups, I have been blown away at his versatility and musical ability. I have seen Damon play in trios, New Orleans brass bands and top 40 groups in venues like the Exploratorium for a multitude of events and Pier 19 for the America's Cup. He's an incredible drummer and the music he's a part of is always a hit with guests. At holiday parties I have seen him go from background music to music that lures people onto the dance floor. The best part, in my opinion, is that he has something appropriate for any event." Mike Kuhlmann Director of Event Design Got Light. lighting. audio. video. drape. staging. "Having worked with this talented group of musicians on many occasions, I highly recommend them. They are so versatile and flexible - a great addition to any event." Nicky Baumohl- Owner Evolutionary Events "I work for a large real estate company that has hired Damon and his various music groups for many types of occasions. We've worked together on small customer events at various property locations in the Bay Area which require more ambient "background" jazz music to allow for conversations. We have also used them for our large annual holiday parties which start out that way but end with a big funk band to dance to after meal service. They play classics everyone knows and gets people out of their seats. Each time, Damon and his fellow musicians bring their smiles and can-do attitudes and are a real pleasure to work with. (Damon can even add lights if you contract them in advance!)" Janis Ross- Event Specialist Digital Reality "I have booked Damon for a variety of events over the years. His pool of performers are extremely professional and talented. He has entertained at the country club with both small and large groups. I can highly recommend him based on my continuing to regularly schedule his music services for events/holidays." Tom Schunn- GM La Rinconada Country Club Sequoyah Country Club
