Glamorous jazz chanteuses and gutsy blues shouters front New York City's Empire Beats, drummer Mark Boquist's five to nine piece rhythm band, as they explore an expanding book of Rock/Roll&Soul music ~ familiar and forgotten hits from the past and funky new originals. For events, parties, and weddings of all kinds, Empire Beats can pare down to a three piece combo to provide instrumental and traditional cocktail hour and ceremony music as well as expand exponentially with sweet backing vocals and a brassy horn section for a full-on dance party extravaganza.

As the funkiest cabaret band in New York City, their acclaimed live music / burlesque show, the *Juke Joint Revue,* is bawdy hip shakin' and tassle twirlin' fun for after hours adults. And as a real live karaoke band, Empire Beats provides the soundtrack for holiday parties, team building, and networking events for businesses that want to cut loose and get on the same page. * Weddings * Engagement Parties * Bachelor/Bachelorette Parties * Corporate Flesh Pressings * Networking Symposiums * Team Building Retreats * Sporting Events * Headlining Showcases * Opening Slots * Rent Parties * Loft Parties * Block Parties * Company Parties * Retirement Parties * Roasts * Divorce Parties * Society Mixers * Product Launches * Family Reunions * Irish Wakes * Holiday Affairs * Fun Raisers * BBQs * Clam Bakes * Happy Hours * After Hours * All Night Jams * Plain Ordinary Whoopee Parties *
