Bio
Wedding, corporate party and festival band. 1994 Pocket Change was formed to show that old school live entertainment was far more enjoyable than the blas� lip syncing track acts that were fast becoming the norm. We always dress to impress, and deliver high energy musical arrangements of your favorite Motown, Stax, Philly Soul, Blues, Reggae, and Classic Rock catalogs spanning the 60's, 70's & 80's. With high stepping choreographed dance steps and the most beautiful vocal harmonies this side of The Temptations., we never lip sync, use sequencers or any kind of artificial enhancements, other than natural talent. So dance and or sing along or just sit back relax and enjoy 'THE SHOW" as we perform the sound track of your life.
