Current Invention Dance Band from Asheville, NC

AWARDS- Gig Master's Loyalty Award, Best of 2012 Flowers are fine and good food is gracious. But whether people have a "nice" time or a "Wow, That Was GREAT!!" time at your party depends much more on the quality, versatility and energy of your live band! Current Invention specializes in playing a wide variety of music for weddings, receptions, private parties and other special occasions. You can have elegant, classy jazz for dinner and cocktails and later have the whole crowd shaking to some of your favorite rock and roll, R&B and Motown hits. We're also happy to emcee your event and to help manage the energetic flow of the evening from the stage. Our core group is a quintet (female vocalist, keyboard/vocals, guitar/vocals, bass/vocals, drums), but we can customize our ensemble to your needs and budget. For example, we can add horns (e.g. saxophone, trumpet, trombone) and/or percussion for extra flavor and kick. Or we can work the other direction and offer you a quartet, a piano jazz trio, duet or solo piano. We have hundreds of songs in our repertoire (we'll send you a more comprehensive song list) and are happy to learn a couple of new tunes for the "first dance" and the parent dances given sufficient notice. Thanks for checking out Current Invention. We want to help create a celebration that you and your guests will remember with delight for years to come!
