The Rockits
A fun 6-piece Motown, soul, disco beach party pop band that gets everyone on the dance floor, THE ROCKITS are IT!
All those songs you remember and love, the soundtrack to your life, as funky as it gets, smooth and romantic too! Cool and hip, from Beatles to Buffett, Beach Boys, Bruce, Blondie and beyond… music for all ages, in all styles.
THE ROCKITS are an energetic combo with ‘sax appeal’, with a magical mix of guitars, keys, horns, and voices. Three entertaining and engaging lead singers with amazing harmonies. Contemporary DJ style in the breaks to keep the party alive. Universal appeal – combined elements of 60 years of music influences make THE ROCKITS unique. Six experienced, versatile, professional, international, affordable entertainers.
The Rockits with sax player $1800 – $2500
From the leader of the band
I’m Peter Grattan, an international entertainer, performer and former TV producer / director with TVNZ, BBC, COMCAST and NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC.
My talented singing partner ROBIN BROWN and I specialize in Music and Video production, from parties and weddings to corporate events and cruises, performing two to seven piece.
We love to make Music, with experienced, top musicians in the D.C. area. We aim to bring YOU the very Best in Entertainment.
Recent engagements have include a season as the singing drummer with top Beach Boys tribute STILL SURFIN’, jazz at GU, DC Convention Center, Dutch, Swedish, Australian embassies, steel drums at The Hilton, lavish weddings and drumming with The Star Spangled Dixieland Band at The Natural History Museum. Recent clubs include JVs, Lost Rhino, Paradiso, Mac Dowells, Blu 1681 and Vera’s. And we play fun private parties, reunions and galas. Most recently, RSVP BAND played the NACE DC ’80s GALA. Enjoy the video below. I recently backed KE$HA at The Planned Parenthood Convention in DC. We recently formed THE DYLZ and THE FABZ, our Bob Dylan / Beatles tributes. A real crowd pleaser, 40 songs by Bob and friends, 5 to 8 performers with sold out shows at JAMMIN’ JAVA.
The PG AND ROBIN duo is ideal for cruise ships, we are as happy playing locally or to be on a plane, bound for a beach wedding in Florida or corporate function in Cabo. In February we’ll be performing in Australia and NZ…
We offer a variety of combos, each perfect for that special occasion, be it a wedding, party, bar, club, soiree or corporate event. And if you need a video produced, I’m your man!
I look forward to our meeting and my customizing the music affordably, professionally and reliably… especially for YOU.
