The Mustangs Band has been performing together since 1992. We play all the top dance hits from the 60's to now. We also have a fat selection of Sinatra, Big Band and Jump Blues. Our goal is to keep the dance floor packed...from 60's Soul to Sinatra, 70's funk and Classic R&B...there is never a dull moment.

The Mustangs are an 7 piece band with 3 lead singers....total of 10 players.
We have a nice big horn section, a percussionist & lots of vocals producing a very big sound and diverse repertoire.

We are 100% live-no sequencers, no soundtracks. We play a wide variety of styles. Over the past 14 years we've built a repertoire of songs that are geared to keep the dance floor packed all night. See our song list and watch our video.

Audience members of all ages can't get enough. And let me tell you, the band is having alot of fun as well! So come on down and have a whirl on the dance floor, sing along with the tunes, or just relax and enjoy.

And now, meet the band:


David Akers was part of Wilson Pickett's touring band for many years. David's vocals covers alot of ground-from James Brown, Sly, Commodores, Earth Wind & Fire all the way back to Louis Armstrong and Frank Sinatra.


Ignatius Mason -doubles as lead singer and is also a slamming drummer. Ignatius covers all the classic R&B favorites from Otis Redding to the Four Tops, motown, Stax, and more.

Pat Amakur- covers all the classic hits from Aretha, Etta James, Tina Turner and much much more. Pat also has a vast repertoire of contemporary R&B.

 

James Duval - is the quintissential guitarist...slipping easily between genres.

David Panzer-The Mustangs' bandleader, sings a wide variety of rock & roll. He traveled the world as lead guitarist of Wilson Pickett's touring band. He has also worked with the Flamingos, Gene Chandler, Sam Moore (of Sam and Dave), and many other legends.


Horns-Our dynamic three piece horn section (sax, trumpet and trombone) gives the raw feel and 100% live sound. The horns bring to life the hits of the 60's through now and especially the big band and jump blues selections.


Apple Jack, our percussionist who brings congas, timbales, and all the bells and whistles that make that signature motown and 70's sound.
