Can we ask for songs that are not on this list?
Yes. Tell us before the date and we’ll work your picks into the set. We know far more songs than this list shows. We also keep quieter songs ready for cocktail hour and dinner. Want an acoustic set for cocktail hour? We can do that too, with Sonny on percussion instead of the full kit. Just don’t ask for a slow jam in the last set.
How do our songs stack up against what everyone else in town plays? We compared song lists from Austin bands. The full overlap is in the songs Austin cover bands play most. See our band's page for which parts of an event we cover and how we handle requests.
If you ain’t first, you’re last. Grab your date before somebody else does.
