About

We are a live-band karaoke band that specializes in making every singer feel like a rock star, and we'll help make your reception unforgettable!

Singing with the band is a big thrill, and we make it easy. We have an easy-to-use teleprompter so you can see the lyrics on a tv screen, and all the musicians sing back-up vocals and help keep the singer on track. We also have an awesome host who can take over and sing lead when the people just want to dance, so everyone has a good time no matter what.

We're perfect for wedding receptions because we're so flexible. We often get hired to play one set as a cover band during dinner/cocktail hour, then a karaoke set later in the night when everyone's ready to cut loose. We can also DJ when you don't want a live band playing, and our emcee is great for introducing the wedding party and all the other announcements. Our rates are competitive with many DJ's, but with us you get a full live band!

Check us out at our flagship show every Wednesday at House Of Blues Anaheim from 10pm - 1am, and feel free to get in touch to find out about other public shows (we play all over the place) or with any questions. We look forward to rocking with you!

Fantastic from start to finish!

We booked Casual Encounters to play at our wedding this past October and it was money very much well spent! I loved the idea of live band karaoke for our wedding, but was worried not many folks would sing--my fears were for nothing as our guests had a blast, often complimenting on how amazing the band sounded. It was so much fun watching our guests get into the music and sing their hearts out! We even did a "first song" instead of dance to help get the party started. They even were able to hook up the lyrics to the projection screen so guests could follow along with the songs!

Communication with Graeme was great--he always responded quickly to any questions or concerns I had and the band on the day-of was super professional. If you're thinking about booking Casual Encounters for your celebration, do it! A fantastic way to put a unique spin on your event.

My bride and I were married a week ago, with Casual Encounters providing the entertainment for our event. I had seen (and sang Karaoke with) these guys at a couple of other parties, so I knew that they were a great cover band. Of course, for your own wedding, you want everything to be perfect - and it was! Their repertoire appeals to all generations, from Bobby Darren to Lady Gaga. Durning the planning process, Graeme was very accessible, easy to work with, and they even learned our First Dance song, and nailed it. If you want to have fun at your own wedding, these guys are for you.

Casual Encounters is by far the best band to hire for wedding!!! They played at my wedding and filled the dance floor with each and every song. They are beyond professional and sound great! They are a very prompt group and looked great on stage. They made our wedding so very special because everyone LOVED the music and got up and danced the night away. If your thinking of hiring a live band for ur wedding and want to get one you can count on that will entertain and liven up your wedding ypu should
