We hired The Smokin' Ocotillos for our Fourth of July party and wow they really achieved the goal! Great music, great energy! It was all Americana! Amazing sound and incredible team! They were so easy to work with and very accommodating. My girls and I danced sooo much! We had so much fun! The party would truly not be complete without The Smokin' Ocotillos! I def plan on booking them again!

We host a huge event every 3rd of July at our church and the band we normally go with broke up. So we had to find another one. Through a Facebook search I discovered Smokin’ Ocotillos and they were available. Not only were they incredibly talented, but they fit our clean family vibe with some fun classic songs. I also appreciated that they were prepared, professional, kind, and on time!!! They worked so well for our event and we won’t hesitate in booking them again!!! An EASY 5 star review for me.

Thank you Smokin Ocotillos! They played a fantastic mix of songs and kept the dance floor busy all evening. Everyone had a wonderful time, and we received so many compliments. Looking forward to having Smokin Ocotillos back at Oceanside Elks.

Awesome band to see! We saw them with family and friends, and the kiddos (ages 1–7) danced the night away, which meant we actually got to relax and enjoy the evening too. We loved the variety of music; they played all sorts of hits that kept everyone entertained.
They also made a real effort to connect with the crowd, which feels more rare these days. One of the sweetest moments was when the guitarist came over and played right near my toddler in such a warm and inviting way. So sweet!
Such a talented and genuinely kind group of musicians. Would absolutely recommend checking this band out!

We REALLY enjoyed this band. Their rendition of Clapton’s ‘Wonderful Tonight’ was really good, along with the rest of their music repertoire. Fun personalities, good crowd engagement, great playing - we’re gonna go see ‘em wherever we can!

These guys are awesome! Talk about a talented crew. And such a fun show. I loved the way they involved the audience. It wasn't just song after song, it was a whole experience. Being in the music scene myself I was blown away by their musicianship. Some of the songs they did far better even than the original artists. Definitely recommend you check these guys out!

Fun band to see! Love their renditions of all the classics :) even played some 'forgotten' hits. They also play some recent hits. All in all an absolutely great time at their shows! Don't miss them!
Saw them for our anniversary and they dedicated a song for us 💕❤️ super thoughtful and that was a great surprise we weren't expecting. We just happened to mention it was a special day for us.
