About this vendor
Based in Minneapolis, MN, the Legendary Percolators Band is a great little group of talented musicians. With a music catalog that spans genres, mostly hits from the 60s and 70s. They bring the party with them, wherever they go.
Based in the Twin Cities, the Legendary Percolators Band have played together since 1992. The trio is made up of Hans, on vocals and drums, Marc, on vocals and guitar, and Rich, on vocals and bass guitar. They can add two more (we suggest keyboards and horn), if you think your wedding would benefit. They play private parties and events, as well as at bars and clubs.
You can expect classics like Black Magic Woman (Santana), Sultans of Swing (Dire Straits), and Brown-Eyed Girl (Van Morrison). They play music that you and your guests can sing along and dance to, from rock to swing to country. And lots lassic ballads, perfect for that magical first dance. If there is a song with sentimental meaning to you, they are happy to learn it. They even supply their own sound system and lights, which can be adapted to suit audiences and spaces of any size.

The percolators did a wonderful job at our wedding in October of 2017.
I was first introduced to the percolators when my mom hired them to play an annual father daughter dance, the Frog Hop, that our Girl Scout troop hosted when we were in middle school. They played that event multiple years in a row and had a lot of fun with the kids.
When we decided we wanted a live band for our wedding, they were an easy and memorable choice. They play at many local venues so it was very easy to introduce my husband to be to their music and he instantly agreed to having them play our reception.
They are a high energy group that kept the party going and played extra Steve Miller songs when they noticed me singing along. Quality music and an excellent stage presence. We truly enjoyed having them as a part of our day. They have such a large list of songs that we had no need for them to learn an extra one, but appreciated the option.
Hans was always responsive and easy to work with. You can tell that the band loves what they do. I would strongly recommend them for any event.
We love the Percolaters! The day we first heard them, we knew they would be the perfect band for our wedding dance. The band plays fun, uplifting, familiar danceable tunes that draw people to the dance floor. Hans reached out to us to help create a playlist customized to our preferences. Even though many of the songs they play are from the 60's and 70's (which fit our era), the fact that they have Ed Sheeran's song Thinking Out Loud in their repertoire, which is 'our song', completely cinched the deal. Our goal of making our wedding fun and celebratory for our guests was met, with so many reporting to us what fantastic time they had! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Anyone hiring the Percolaters will not be disappointed! They continue to be one of our favorite local bands.
The Percolators were AWESOME! Hans is a really good guy to work with. I felt like he was genuinely concerned about our wedding day and making his part in it the best that it could be. I got a couple of calls from Hans throughout the planning to make sure the details were in place. The Percolators learned "When I Say I Do" by Matthew West just for us and they nailed it! It was our first dance and they played it again as the last song to close the night with a last dance. The Percolators played a great mix of music and kept the crowd engaged. We wouldn't have changed a thing, it was exactly what we wanted. In my opinion, live music is the way to go and we would not hesitate to choose the Percolators again.
The Percolators were the perfect choice for my wedding. I knew I wanted a live band; one that interacts with the crowd, plays all types of music and gets our guests dancing. The Percolators did not disappoint. Great communication, fun group and memorable performance. Definitely recommend!
My husband chose The Percolators for our wedding last October. He wanted good musicians; I wanted a fun wedding dance and we both got our wishes.
The Percolators are a Class Act in every regard. For a 3 piece band they have a very full sound. Their vocals were strong and harmonious. Their eclectic song list satisfied all age groups which made them a great wedding band.
They adjusted their songs to the liking of the crowd. And the dance floor stayed full all night. Lots of positive comments. Really fun personalities without making it all about them.
Hans was great to work with. He kept in contact with us over our engagement period, made suggestions and even promised to learn a new song especially for our event.
I’m sooo glad we had a live band instead of a Disk Jockey for our wedding reception. It wasn’t any more expensive and was a lot more fun. As one guest mentioned, "it's like a compliment to your guests to go through the trouble of finding a great band for them" And this would be the one!
