Band Bar Club Corporate Event Event Greenville Hot As A Pepper John M. Hoyt Party Upstate Venue

Everybody, let’s rock!

Do you love dancing?  I mean, do you REALLY love dancing?

Here’s someone who loves dancing:

If you love dancing as much as this young man, then please consider Hot As A Pepper for your next function! There’s nothing we like better than providing the groove for you to get down to!

We cover many styles of music in a show, most of the songs are familiar and perfect for you to dance to, whether it is a shag or a slow dance, and maybe even a line dance.

At our last gig, we had an actual Hell’s Angel member busting a move most of the night with us! If we can get big burly bikers up dancing, we can move your feet too!

Call us today and book a party, corporate event, wedding, or hire us for your venue because we play bars and clubs too! We mostly play the Upstate because we are Greenville, SC based, but we will travel to you if the gig is right!

It’s Party Time! Book a band – TODAY!

It's Party Time!
It’s Party Time!

IT’S PARTY TIME!

This is the time of year where parties abound! Whether it be for the occasion of a Family reunion of some sort, a sports team’s important game or the three biggest holidays of the year; there are more than your fair share of reasons to host an event that will certainly uplift everybody’s spirits and enhance the mood for all.

Now, I can’t begin to tell you what kind of food to serve as each type of soirée is suited best by a different type of menu. I can’t tell you who to invite because lets face it… only you know who you want there.

Neither can I tell you where you should have it. Do you have your own party barn? Back 40? Favorite watering hole? Perhaps you’d consider renting out a site.

Is this thing gonna be formal? Themed? What’s it’s purpose? Do we bring Dates or will cousins suffice?

I gotta tell you… You sure have stirred a lot of questions and I’ve only got one answer: Hot As A Pepper is the band you need to call! Between the professionalism of the musicians and the experience there isn’t anything this group of guys hasn’t seen. We can play it… Make it FUN… AND ensure that the poor soul that decides to miss your event will be sorry!

Contact us for the times and dates you have in mind before someone else does!! ….namely that person whom you weren’t going to invite – you think they’d invite you to their’s???

We play parties in the Greenville South Carolina area and all over the Upstate. If your event is big enough, we’ll travel to you!

SC Paralegal Association event at Embassy Suites in Greenville, SC

There are parties you look forward to and others, well… let’s face it – you just don’t know WHAT to expect! – Am I right?? Well, when Hot As A Pepper was contacted to play an event for the SC Paralegal Association at the Greenville EMBASSY on Verde, we thought Uh-Oh…. But – hey, we just surmised that EVERYONE likes to have a good time, Right?? Do they EVER!!

We had a BLAST… these are some hard working people who; by day, surely do not get enough appreciation for all the effort they put in, but what can be said but that they CERTAINLY know how to dole out the appreciation! These Guys and Gals know how to simply have fun!

Hot As A Pepper would have to admit that This gig was one for the memory books! Even though the long day had taken it’s toll on a few; most of the attendee’s stayed on and really let their hair down, danced and sang along as each song was played effortlessly by this seasoned group. From requests and acappella renditions to Rockin’ & Groovin’, there wasn’t a song that didn’t have someone’s toes tapping or singing along!

We had so much fun we were asked to play their 2013 event; invited to play a private party and are going to be actively plugged to be regulars at a local watering hole! Sounds like a successful night if you ask me!

Don’t miss out on your chance to see & hear Hot As A Pepper – or better yet, BOOK them while you can! You can use our CONTACT FORM or call 864-979-1224 for more information.

Sippin’ In Simpsonville Oktoberfest event turned into ROCKtoberfest!

The air may have been a little cooler, the Beer certainly was flowing cold & freely… but Hot As A Pepper was burning up the stage at the “Sippin’ In Simpsonville” event. We would like to extend a special thanks to our good friend Mark Rodeffer for having invited us to be a part of this exceptional Oktoberfest fundraiser event for the Arts.

The crowd was thoroughly entertained with new tunes & old… with slow dancers & rockers… I think there were even a couple attempts at shagging!! The only thing that was missing were our accordions! Then there may have been a REAL fire going on! All in all, this fun event came off without hitch at all. Heck, we even accepted the rain since it was kind enough to wait until we were done!!

Hot As A Pepper was really thankful and appreciative of the generosity of those who had organized this event and a very special thanks to the very accommodating and complimentary officer (you know who you are) for being such an encouragement during set up & tear-down.

Are you planning an event? A private party? A Club Owner/Manager looking to get a Band in that will bring the right atmosphere for fun? Look no Further – we’re here!! Our calendar is beginning to take shape as we received good leads and referrals for future gigs while Sippin’ in Simpsonville – Don’t you get caught in the rain with your glass empty; call Hot As A Pepper and Let’s Get it Started!!!

Band Corporate Event Event Greenville Hot As A Pepper John M. Hoyt Music Party Upstate

Hot As A Pepper is playing a block party on July 20th and you are invited!

In a couple weeks, we will be playing a block party and everyone is invited. Okay, so it isn’t Friday Night Music on Main in Downtown Greenville, but it IS a gig, and we’ll take it!

Michelle Black at Social Butterfly has decided that it would be a good idea to have an evening where people who drive by or live near her business in the Augusta Pointe shopping center can stop in, listen to some live music, check out her boutique, visit Grape & Grains (they sell beer and wine making supplies) or have an authentic Thai dinner at Royal Thai. I tend to agree with her, so Hot As A Pepper has volunteered to help make it as fun as possible.

We’ll start after it begins cooling down, after 6pm.  So come on by 104 Mauldin Rd in Greenville, between Augusta and Pleasantburg!  Bring a lawn chair, or stand around, just stop in!

If the temperature is anything like today, Hot As A Pepper will honestly be the HOTTEST BAND IN THE UPSTATE!

We’ll be playing a couple sets, or until one of us passes out, or until the authorities shut us down, which ever comes first.

Maybe we can get Latia Harris to stop by and sing a song or two with us.

If you are looking for a band for your block party, business promotional event or for any reason, please call us at 864.979.1224!
