Book this band, now! Having our wedding in New Orleans it was really important to us to have top quality music. Being a musician myself, I have high standards of musicianship and performance. These guys are 1000000% it! I honestly went through the entire catalog of bands in New Orleans as it had to be right (of which there are many many bands). Out of everyone I landed on Retro Punkz. Best decision ever. If I could give 1000 stars I would. Right from the beginning of establishing communication, Vegas, Jojo and the band have gone out of their way to understand what we wanted for our band at the reception. I have been quite specific in what I wanted and all of my requests were catered for, for which we will be forever grateful. High energy, fun and interactive our guests still haven’t stopped talking about them, ‘best band ever’ generally being the most popular statement said. I truly cannot speak highly enough of them and you will have 0 regrets booking them. Communication has been great, they’re professional, great value and really go out of their way to make sure you get exactly what you want to create an unforgettable experience. This band is absolutely the real deal and it’s the most fun my guests and us have had at a wedding. Thank you so so much for everything Retro Punkz. Every time we come back to New Orleans we are definitely seeing you guys. Great musicians and great people. Thank you.

Retro Punks is the best wedding band period!! They were the best and most entertaining wedding band we could have booked. Their song selections was perfect and kept the party going all night long. Their attention to detail and professionalism with everything from the sound for the ceremony to getting everyone up to dance was impeccable. They played a variety of genres of music which gave everyone a reason to dance and took out suggestions for what type of music we wanted to hear. We honestly couldn't be happier with our choice and received praise from everyone who attended our wedding that they were the best wedding band they have ever seen. Highly recommend!

We have nothing but absolutely amazing things to say about RetroPunkz. They are an unbelievably talented band and they know how to keep the dance floor alive. We saw them on a trip to New Orleans and asked if they’d be a part of our wedding in Houston. We’d highly recommend them for any wedding / private event.
Thanks again for being such a memorable part of our wedding!

The BEST Band!! Everyone was on the dance floor! We had so many people say how amazing they were and even some friends ask for their card after the reception.
Both Vegas and Jo are incredible vocalists and really get the crowd into everything!

I booked retro punk for my wedding and it was by far the highlight of the evening! They sound amazing, played so many great songs and they even found a musician who could play the ukulele for one of my favorite songs! SO many people were blown away by the performance. Communication was very easy and I would def recommend them

RetroPunkz absolutely stole the show at our wedding this past weekend! Their performance was nothing short of sensational, and they were without a doubt the highlight of the evening (aside from the bride, groom, and guests, of course!). From their energetic stage presence to their flawless execution of both classic hits and modern tunes, RetroPunkz had everyone on their feet and dancing the night away. Their ability to read the crowd and keep the energy high was truly impressive. We couldn't have asked for a better band to help us celebrate our special day. If you're looking to elevate your event to the next level, look no further than RetroPunkz!

We hired the Retro Punkz for my birthday after seeing them perform in New Orleans. We were AMAZED by their performance. The Retro Punkz bring a level of energy and excitement to the party that brings every guest to their feet. The first thing that we heard from guests at our party afterwards is how much they enjoyed the band -- a complete and universal hit. They have music for everyone, and it's impossible to sit on the sidelines when they are performing! I would absolutely recommend the Retro Punkz for any situation!
