Let’s face it…..when a band puts a song list together for a promo package, they know what the various venues want to see on that list, and what they want to hear. I am going to cut to the chase, and allow you to get back to whatever it was that you were involved with when you opened this package. Once again, I thank you for taking a brief moment out of your schedule to review this.
We have been together for 18 years plus as a band. In that 18 years, we have
worked constantly. We have currently over 400 songs in our song list that we
perform regularly. I will list some of the popular and most requested songs and
groups below. I will also be brutally honest and forthright about what we
aren’t. We are not a new country band, a rap or hip-hop band, a broadway show
band, or a dance revue of any type whatsoever. That being said, we can and do
perform some of the musical styles listed above, and if we can’t do what you
specifically need, it is included in our huge repertoire of recorded music that
we generally supply for intermissions via computer. If you do have a specific
song or group of songs that you would like us to perform, please let us know in
advance and we will work them up for your engagement. No problem.

We regularly perform at Pastinos Restaurant in Largo, Fl. and have been with
these great folks for a number of years. We have grown and nurtured a
substantial local following at this unique venue, where they let us get away
with anything musical. It is truly a musicians dream to perform for folks like
this,and the success has been exemplary for both parties. Their web address is:
As far as the blues goes, we know a ton of it, and unless you are a trivia
expert or seeking to stump the band, I’ll bet we know whatever tune it is you
are seeking.
We have been involved with many different agencies and promoters over the years,
and most of those previous relationships have been pretty positive. We have
recently embarked on a different path with a full time personal management
representative who is our sole representative. It is a handshake relationship,
which is the best kind in my mind. Because of this, we have covered more ground
in the last few months than we probably have in the past five years. Included in
this package is a CD with snippets of some of our live performances. Not all of
your favorite tunes may be included, but you will be able to get a pretty good
feel for what one of our live shows might be like. We own and carry production
capable of covering a 1000 seat room including lighting. We also thrive in the
more intimate smaller venues and will gauge our production needs accordingly. We
are not egomaniacs bent on the destruction of your hearing. ……...and wimpy we
are NOT either. If you have read this far, you should realize by now that we
like to build relationships. We want to perform for you once, and hopefully,
many times afterward. If you need further information, or would like to see us
perform, please email us at:
We can forward an itinerary to you, or give you a list of venues we will be
performing at in your local area. You can also get up to date information about
the band at our
website:
A couple of last minute thoughts. Most of the pictures included in this pack are
from a concert with 24,000 people in attendance. The black and whites are from a
show at the Largo Cultural Center in Largo, Fl. The black and whites are from a
newspaper spread, and our dress for that show does not come across so well. The
color shots are from the Clearwater Seafood Blues Festival. We DO dress
appropriately for each individual venue, and if you want tuxedos and ball gowns,
..we got ‘em. We are flexible, detail oriented, and we aim to please. Thanks
once again for taking the time to read our “not so normal” promo package. It is
our greatest wish to be a part of your next event and to contribute to it’s
success by bringing you the best live music possible.So please give Charlie a
call at Kingfish Management We look forward to hearing from you.
