About Dat Band
Founded in 2014
MUSIC FOR MAKING MEMORIES Let’s be real—people don’t remember the centerpieces. They remember whether the party felt alive and the dance floor was packed. That’s where we come in. We’re Dat Band, a high-energy, interactive live band from New Orleans—the city that invented the second line and lives for the groove. Too many bands check boxes. We light the fuse. From Motown to modern hits, funk to swing, our performances bring the full spectrum of sound and soul. Weddings, corporate events, or wild backyard blowouts—whether it’s a 4-piece cocktail set or a 13-piece party powerhouse, Dat Band is built around you, not the other way around. Here’s the plan: 1. Tell us your vision 2. Pick your vibe 3. Start the party When you hire Dat Band, you’re not just booking a band—you’re throwing a party you & your guests will never stop talking about. We make the music, you make the memories.
