Why have just a “band” when you can have the Dino Martinis?

We began as a swing / cocktail / jump blues band playing mostly original music and our favourite old-school Las Vegas strip covers by Louis Prima, Frank Sinatra and Wayne Newton. Over the years we added a huuuuge repertoire of songs and developed a reputation as one of Calgary (and Canada’s) best wedding, event and party bands.

We’ve played across Canada and around the world, touring the U.S., Europe and Japan. We’ve also played for some of the world’s largest corporations and household names including Tom Hanks, Glenn Frey, Bill Clinton and even members of the Japanese Royal Family.

We’ve always kept that fun Las Vegas-stage-show approach. With a huge variety of high-end, glamorous costuming, we focus on putting on a professional show that elevates your event (or brand) that really connects with the audience. Some other “bands” are essentially a group of musicians, who show up in basic black suits, punch the clock, playing the charts they were given for the show. As one client said to us recently, “Why would we get just a band, when we can have The Dino Martinis!” We always play like our lives depend on it!

Even after all those shows and learning hundreds of songs, we still rehearse as a band and we’re happy to add your special request, or two, to the show. We personalize our set on the fly to keep the dance floor full playing more of what the people in the room seem to be enjoying

We also pride ourselves on over-the-top customer service. We make your event easy. We can help you plan your event – we have a great list of excellent and attentive wedding and event planners, or we can easily handle some logistics for you. What that means is that once you’ve booked the Dinos – you don’t have to worry.

Just pour yourself a martini – or any other cocktail you prefer – sit back and let the fun unfold.
