The 96.5 House Band has been entertaining audiences in Western North Carolina and beyond since November of 2002. 

Based in Asheville, NC The 96.5 House Band has enjoyed the honor of supporting the likes of the Beach Boys, The Temptations, Gary Puckett, The Rascals, Ambrosia, The Drifters and more.  In fact, both the Beach Boys and Temptations requested the 96.5 House Band to play a few more dates with them (Tough to travel to South Carolina and Florida on very short notice and play for free, but a thrill to be asked!).  Also, Gary Puckett .... upon hearing the band’s sound check …commented “You guys are gonna give me a run for my money tonight”.  To which the band responded, “Hey, you’re the one with the hits!” 

While the noteworthy shows have allowed the 96.5 House Band to play in front of thousands of music lovers, the band’s bread and butter are local events such as weddings, private parties, community block parties, car shows, radio station events and more. 

With a playlist that spans nearly four decades of hits, the dance floor is a popular place when the 96.5 House Band comes around.  And if you’re not dancing, you’ll be singing along!
