JUMPSTART BAND

JUMPSTART has entertained corporate clients of all sizes at formal, informal and theme gatherings throughout the central Texas area for more than 15 years with much success and repeat business. Please refer to our Testimonials and Performance Highlight links.

JUMPSTART has successfully entertained at wedding events of all sizes and denominations, from the most formal evening affairs to the less formal and informal parties celebrating each couple’s special day, throughout central Texas. We work with our clients in advance to tailor our song selections, complimenting each wedding day celebration and theme.

We tailor our attire and song selections, complimenting each special event’s purpose and theme.

"Best band I've ever hired!" -----Mickey Christakos "Just wanted to let you know again how happy we were with Jumpstart's performance Saturday night at our wedding. You could tell, I'm sure, by the fact that the dance floor was full and everyone enjoyed themselves and the music. I've heard so many people in Dallas talking about how good the band was. Thanks so much for helping to make Michele's and Steve's night perfect!" ---- Eileen, Mother of Bride "Exceptionally great band!" ----- Jenna Lang, Premier Communities “You guys did an awesome job Saturday night. Thanks so much for coming to Dallas. I know it’s quite an inconvenience but we really love you guys. You’re a great band. You made Ricky’s party perfect.” -----Darlene L.
