Custom-Tailored Big Bands

Drywater Band was formed as a 4-piece band in 2004 and has steadily developed into a live music and production powerhouse serving Houston, Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, and beyond. Our reputation among planners and repeat customers is earned by the relentless pursuit of quality in our production, talent, performance, and client experience.

For cocktail and dinner the band plays lower volume slow and mid tempo songs. When it's party time, the band provides non-stop high energy entertainment focusing on audience interaction, choreography and keeping the dance floor full. Always engaging the audience and never missing a beat, The Drywater Band performs one power house sing-a-long after another in a series of rehearsed medleys, segues, and transitions. But we call songs on-the-fly to ensure that we're ALWAYS playing the perfect music for every moment.

Never skimping on sound or lighting, our full production capabilities include wireless mixing, high-end line array speakers, wireless microphones, in-ear monitors, live DJ, dance floor lighting, and led screens; and is covered under the band's $1,000,000 liability insurance policy.

We are locally owned and managed, and are fully indepedent from other booking agencies and management companies. Book directly with our transparent 2-party performance agreement, and avoid agency upcharges and hidden referral fees.
