    Live music for your event with the Susie Hansen Latin Band!


    Call us for your party! We'd love to play for your private event -- house party, birthday, anniversary, wedding, Quinceañera, backyard party, company party, corporate event, nightclub, restaurant, concert or other special event.
    • We'll play all the great Latin music you love -- salsa, cumbia, merengue, bachata, bolero and cha cha cha.
    • If you like, we can perform some popular music, too - funk, disco, R&B, classic rock, Motown, swing (like Frank Sinatra) and jazz.
    • For a more intimate event, you might want to consider our trio or quartet, playing all Latin music.
    • For a large event, we could use our 9-piece or 10-piece band with horns.
    • Please consider our band-and-DJ package. Our DJ can play during the band's breaks, and until the end of the party. He's great at mixing, and has just about every song! Our DJ can also supply any lights you might want - uplights, pin spots, stage lights, GOBO monograms - as well as your photo booth.
    • If you like, we can emcee during your event, and help coordinate, too.
    • For lots more info, go to susiehansen.com/event-bookings. Call Susie at (323) 224-8006. We'll give you a full price quote.  Go to the contact page on our website.
