The band

We play the whole room.

Cover Story is a high-energy, genre-blending party band based in Seattle: soul, funk, disco, rock and feel-good throwbacks from the '70s, '80s and '90s, played loud and played right.

Wedding, corporate party, casino night or city festival — we show up ready to work the room, read the crowd and keep the floor moving for the whole night. Meet the band and see how a night works

What we bring

The whole night, one booking.

Live band, DJ, PA and lights. Tell us what your night needs and we'll cover it.

  • Live band

    The main event. Two or three sets of soul, funk, disco, rock and pop, built around your running order.

  • DJ for the evening

    Before the first set, between sets and after the last song. The floor stays full from doors to last dance, with no second supplier to book.

  • PA and sound

    A PA sized for the room, set up and run by us. The venue needs nothing.

  • Stage lighting

    Lighting that makes the band a show, not a corner of the room.
