Our second time having Retro Station at our venue, and they are a community favorite! Sooooo good!

Community Event•Reviewed on July 17, 2022•From Beaumont, CA

I was looking for a good band to bring a rockin' party to the community that I provide events for. But Retro Station was an INCREDIBLE, KICK-BUTT BAND that took the party into the outer realms of AWESOME! They entertained over 150 people with a fantastic range of songs. Rock, disco, country- you name it, they nailed it! I requested all the best upbeat party and dance songs, and boy-howdy did they deliver! I cannot recommend this group enough, and we can't wait to have them back!

Thank you Michelle for having us! You and your community were super fun and a pleasure to work for. We look forward to another fun evening! Michelle

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 18, 2015•From Santa Barbara, CA

Michelle and the Retro Station band were fabulous once again! Second year we've had them for our annual holiday dinner/dance and hope to have them again--many times if possible! This year more guests attended because they wanted to dance to this band. The dance floor was so crowded at times that people danced between the tables too. Michelle et al, were very accommodating and knew just what type of music the guests liked, and they varied the music enough so people could "rock and roll" or get romantic in some slower numbers. Great band, great musicians!

Wedding•Reviewed on March 12, 2015•From Palm Springs, CA

The band was truly amazing. My uncle is a great singer and they let him get up and sing with them for my father daughter dance, which meant the world to my dad, uncle and me. They also gave our friends and family the opportunity to take over the band duties during a break and they surprised us with a great song. Each member of the band was fun, talented and really interactive. Their set list was great, everyone danced the night away; we could not have been happier. We have seen Retro Station a few times, each time better than the last. Thanks so much! We could not have had a better evening:)

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on March 13, 2016•From Van Nuys, CA

I'm not sure where to start- This band was so amazing - not only was their performance spectacular, they were such a pleasure to work with. The band leader Michelle was so kind, accommodating, thoughtful and professional. I can't express in words how much I appreciate her. I would never use another band as long as they are around!

New Year's Eve Party•Reviewed on January 3, 2015•From Camarillo, CA

This is the second time we have had them for our New Years Party and they are perfect. We have a lot of different age people and they are hard to please, Retro Station is the only band I have hired that manages to please all of them. We will gladly have them back again.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 14, 2013•From Santa Monica, CA

Michelle and the guys from RetroStation were a delight to work with and to have for this wedding. As professional coordinators for a lot of events, this particular wedding we coordinated was for very dear, close friends of ours, which is to say that everything had to be perfect. RetroStation invested themselves into this event. They did so much more than just show up; they asked what else they could do to assist us in ensuring that this wedding was everything it was meant to be. If you want to have the best at your gig, we highly recommend RetroStation. Great talent, great group, lots of fun and very professional all rolled into the band you will love.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 3, 2014•From Santa Barbara, CA

The Retro Station band should be rated #1! They were awesome! At our annual holiday party more people were on the dance floor than ever before, enjoying the variety of music offered. A few people asked how they could contact the band as they wanted to hire them for future events. We hope to have Michelle and the band back next year for our annual party. Marge G.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on May 30, 2015•From Northridge, CA

My dad said it best when he asked, "Why isn't this band at all our parties?" My husband's "Mad Men" birthday party was a fairly small affair - under 30 people - and I worried that having a band would seem disproportionate. But my husband wanted a dance party, so I decided to take a chance. I needn't have worried. The members of Retro Station felt like old friends, albeit exceptionally talented ones! They provided the perfect background music for cocktails and dinner, and they got EVERYONE on the dance floor when it was time to let loose. Michelle even made my husband a "Mad Men" music cd to commemorate the occasion. If you want to have fun, call Retro Station.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 29, 2013•From Santa Barbara, CA

We loved Retro station! They are a first rate band that can play anything from slow romantic songs to rock and roll. They had everyone at our wedding dancing including people that never dance! Michelle, the band leader has a great voice and is a consummate professional. She was a joy to work with through the whole process and accommodated all of our special requests. She also emcees the event and knows just what songs to pick at the right times.

Wedding•Reviewed on July 21, 2013•From Pasadena, CA

We had Retro Station for our wedding and we could not have asked for a more perfect band! They are very professional, SO much fun, and very, very accommodating! They had he dance floor full the whole time! Thank you for making our wedding special! Michelle and the whole band were a pleasure to work with! Their passion for what they do really shows in their performance! Great versatile band for any occasion!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 20, 2014•From Malibu, CA

Michelle and the guys from RetroStation were amazing to work with and to have for this wedding. RetroStation invested themselves into this event by meeting with the venue coordinator without us to ensure the set up would meet the expectations for us and the venue holders. They did so much more than just show up; they asked what else they could do to assist us in ensuring that this wedding was everything it was meant to be. If you want to have the best at your gig, we highly recommend RetroStation. Great talent, great group, lots of fun and very professional all rolled into the band you will love.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 5, 2014•From Escondido, CA

I really could not give a better review for Retro Station! They were just amazing! The party would not have been the same without them. I gave them full control of what songs to play and how to entertain a crowd - and they totally delivered! I got so many compliments from my guests - it is quite a feat to entertain 200 people with such positive results but Retro Station did wonderfully! Thank you so much!!! I would 100% book you for my next party and will definitely recommend you to friends!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 16, 2013•From Upland, CA

We could not have picked a better Band! Our guests danced the night away to the wonderful sounds of the 60s. We highly recommend Retro Station, as friendly, talented Musicians who go out of their way to ensure a tailor made Event. We will never forget our 20th Wedding Anniversary, plus Stuart's 50th Birthday, thanks to Michelle and the Band. xxx

Community Event•Reviewed on July 5, 2013•From Newport Beach, CA

The band arrived early, introduced themselves and were not only incredibly friendly but professional as well. Their music was OUTSTANDING and we even got them to stay an extra half hour as the crowd was overwhelmingly excited about their music. I would highly recommend this band to anyone - whether you're having a huge event or even a backyard party! Just fabulous!!!!!

New Year's Eve Party•Reviewed on January 1, 2014•From Camarillo, CA

The band was great, we had a huge age range45-95 and not one complaint. We will hire them again!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on March 31, 2013•From Manhattan Beach, CA

As a professional keyboardist with over 250 weddings under my belt- I was now on the other side as the client in charge of my own party and Michelle was spot on in all things, including Master of Ceremonies duties. The overall musicianship and vocals were strong, the song selection was appropriate - and in an era of parties leaning towards DJ's- there is nothing like a live band. Rock on!

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on November 10, 2012•From Los Angeles, CA

RETRO STATION PLAYED IN MY BACKYARD FOR MY MOTHER'S 55TH BIRTHDAY PARTY. THEY WERE VERY PROFESSIONAL, ON TIME, AND ACCOMMODATED OUR REQUESTS WHEN WE ASKED THEM TO SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR MY MOTHERS BIRTHDAY AS WELL AS GIVING US TIME TO GIVES SPEECHES. THEY PLAYED AN ENTIRE 2 HOURS WITH A SMALL BREAK IN BETWEEN. ON TOP OF THAT, WE ASKED THEM TO INCLUDE SOME DISCO SONGS THAT THEY ORIGINALLY DIDN'T HAVE IN THEIR CATALOG AND THEY LEARNED THEM! THANKS SO MUCH TO MICHELLE AND RETRO STATION!! A+++

Perfect group for a family event. They play a good variety of oldies and know how to engage and play to the crowd. Easy to work with, on time and professional.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 9, 2012•From Dana Point, CA

Michelle and the guys were great from day one. They were extremely quick to respond and communicated well. The band was extremely fun and all about making our day the best possible, to include willing to learn new songs upon request. It was great to work with them. -Tyson and Linds
