About 70s Kids
70s Kids is a six-piece dance band built around one mission: bringing the music of the 1970s back to life in the most fun way possible. They cover a wide range of sounds from the decade, including disco, funk, pop, rock, and yacht rock, making them one of the more versatile acts you will find on the tribute circuit.
Their catalog pulls from artists like Donna Summer, The Bee Gees, Hall & Oates, Fleetwood Mac, the Commodores, Captain & Tennille, and Kool & The Gang, among others. The live show goes beyond just the music, incorporating costumes, props, and visual staging that make the whole experience feel like a production.
The band is made up of Shannon Remley on lead vocals and dance, GK VIA on lead guitar, Rob Bowser on synths and keyboards, Ray Hartsfield on lead vocals and guitar, Doug Grabowski on bass guitar, and Mike Graci on drums and electronic sounds. Together they bring a lot of firepower to the stage, and crowd participation is a big part of what makes their shows feel alive.
What You Will Hear
Expect the kind of night where you might hear disco anthems like “Hot Stuff” by Donna Summer, “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees, and “I Will Survive” by Gloria Gaynor woven in alongside funk grooves like “Brick House” by the Commodores, “Get Down on It” by Kool & The Gang, and “Play That Funky Music” by Wild Cherry. They might also reach for softer classic rock moments like “Dreams” by Fleetwood Mac or the yacht rock ease of “Escape (The Pina Colada Song)” by Rupert Holmes.
The set draws from across the full landscape of the 70s, from the dance floors of Studio 54 to the FM radio dial, which means the crowd is always kept guessing about what comes next.
