Remember that old radio you had when you were a kid - the one that always seemed to be playing all of your favorite songs, ALL the time?  Well, you can flashback now to those good old days with RADIO RETRO RADIO RETRO is a fun-packed, high-energy dance band that faithfully reproduces all the best music of the 60’s, 70’s, 80's and 90’s. Great bands like: The Go-Gos, The Rolling Stones, Tom Petty, The Beach Boys, The Bangles, Lynard Skynard, Fleetwood Mac, Madonna, Pat Benatar, Journey, The Supremes, The Cars, AC/DC, The Eurythmics, Dion, Men At Work, Joan Jett, The B-52's, The Eagles, The Beatles, Elvis, U2...the list goes on and on...but it doesn't stop with just rock-n-roll.  RADIO RETRO can also tap into a huge variety of material from the other genres as well: Motown, country, disco, reggae, southern rock, standards, and jazz - all selected from Billboard’s Top 40 charts and ALL INSTANTLY RECOGNIZABLE HITS.  No obscure songs that nobody remembers. This deep repertoire makes RADIO RETRO the perfect party band for listeners and dancers of all ages. Want all 80's music?  You got it.  Want just 50's - 60's music?  No problemo. Maybe toss in some country tunes along with some classic rock or a mixture of everything?  You name it, you got it.  And along with their energetic live music, RADIO RETRO keeps the energy running high by playing CD/iPod music on their sound system during their short breaks. So, in effect, you get a live band AND a DJ! WHOA!  PLUS RADIO RETRO can provide the music background for you and your guests to sing "live karaoke".  This has been a real kick at some of our recent gigs.

They stay in contact right up to the day of your event and the band is always appropriately dressed for the occasion.  Depending on the client’s wishes, the band can even wear formal tuxes and gowns and, of course, they are always ready to play over-time if you want them to. RADIO RETRO's sole purpose is to make your special event just that - special.  You’ll be able to rest easy and have fun with your guests knowing that the entertainment portion of your event will be spot on.

Thank you, Radio Retro, for playing at our 2011 Christmas party at the Austin Country Club! You were awesome! Many of my co-workers commented on the quality of your sound and how they enjoyed your flexibility of taking requests for different songs.  We look forward to having you back NEXT YEAR!

Radio Retro played my wife's 30th birthday party recently.  They were fantastic!  Several of our friends asked for their card to play future events.  They had great communication skills, were flexible with the type and content of their show, and most importantly they had as good a time performing as the partygoers had dancing.  I would highly recommend them for your show!

Radio Retro went well beyond our expectations.  I hired them to play for my wife’s 40th birthday party, and they were terrific from start to finish.  They were extremely proactive in communicating with us before the party, and they played unbelievably well at the party.  I would highly recommend Radio Retro for any occasion.

Jim,
Thanks!  You guys were great.  I was working the event so I missed the entire first set, but the second set was rocking.  You even got the gov up on stage!  The next one is going to be bigger and better.  We are looking forward to it.

Dear Jim,
Thank you so much for playing at our event.  You and the band made the association's party, a "party" totally. Everyone loved the music and the musicianship! We look forward to our next event where we can have you and the band back. Not soon enough judging by the audience response.

Thank you again.

Jim,
I wanted to write and let you know how much I appreciate you and your band playing again at Sculpture Challenge this year.   I can't begin to tell you how many people complimented me on the music.   You all are professionals and really set the mood.  Hope to have you back to perform here again.
