Slow Dance Ballads

Nobody does ballads like us! Silky strings, warm horns, and gentle rhythm sections create a soothing atmosphere for our featured balladeer.

Slow dances are the most relaxing way to spend time with someone special on the dance floor. Slow, smooth melodies light a fire to rekindle a romance. They also make a great ice breaker

for getting to know someone new.


Well placed ballads are an essential part of any setlist, providing an auditory breath from the intensity of high energy dance music.

A Variety Band Set List

We are often asked for lists of some of the best dance songs we play and if we can perform something everyone in the gathering of friends, family, associates, ages, cultures, etc. will enjoy. It can be said that music is the most universal language of all so when it comes to playing music the most people will like there are some hit songs with such an ear worm of a hook, a recognizable hook, an amazing melody, lyrical rhyme, and pulse pounding beat that make any audience want to be part of the experience.


Below is a list of some of the most beloved songs in a variety of styles that draw crowds to the dance floor. These songs are in alphabetical order so the styles reflect a variety of styles just like you'd expect from our live band.
