RIVERBOAT RASCALS

specialty (polka, mariachi, etc)

Step right up, ladies and gents, and let the Riverboat Rascals whisk you back to the golden age of swing! This Oshkosh-born outfit is a bootleggers dream: a razzle-dazzle dance band built to light up speakeasy soires, corporate galas, private parties, weddings, and any shindig begging for that genuine roaring-20s sparkle.

Led by the ever-charming, award-winning canary Kate Voss and her slick-fingered partner Jason Goessl on guitar, the Rascals deliver the real juicehot rhythms, smooth melodies, and a floor-filling groove that keeps dancers cutting rugs til the wee hours. The full 6-piece lineup (vocals, guitar, tenor sax, trumpet, upright bass, and drums) brings maximum razzmatazz, but the band can slim down to a 5-, 4-, 3-, or even 2-piece outfit for more intimate affairs or budget-friendly engagements.

Every member is a seasoned pro, playing across the Midwest and beyond, guaranteeing a polished, high-energy performance every time. From classic swing to cha-chas, rumbas, waltzes, and even electro-swing, the Riverboat Rascals deliver rhythms fit for ballroom beauties, seasoned jitterbugs, or folks who just like to wiggle with a grin.

Available for travel far and wide, the Riverboat Rascals are your ticket to a night of glitz, glamour, and good-time revelry. Book them, and let the good times roll!
