What types of events does Q The Band perform at?
We specialize in luxury weddings, private celebrations, corporate galas, and high-end social events. From intimate gatherings to large-scale productions, our versatile band brings the perfect energy to every stage.
What makes Q The Band different from other party bands?
Q The Band is unique in combining a full string section with a party band ensemble. Our 9-15 piece band includes strings, brass, rhythm section, and powerhouse vocalists - many of whom are Grammy-nominated or Billboard charting artists. We also perform multiple wardrobe changes throughout your event, transitioning from elegant dinner attire to high-energy party looks. We've performed for Blake Shelton, at the Winspear Opera House, and at Dallas's most prestigious venues including the Ritz-Carlton, The Adolphus, and Arlington Hall.
What makes us truly different:
-
Strings + Brass: Unlike typical party bands, we combine a 3-piece string section with a 4-piece horn section
-
Grammy-Level Talent: Our roster includes Grammy-nominated artists and a winner of The Voice Australia
-
Multiple Looks: We change wardrobes 2-3 times during your event to match the vibe from dinner to dancing
-
Billboard Success: Several band members have #1 Billboard charting credits
-
High-Profile Experience: From Blake Shelton celebrations to performances at the Winspear Opera House
