Mirage Are you recently engaged? Be sure to ask about our ‘special pricing’ for newly engaged couples. Mirage, an award winning (past recipient of “The Knot Best of Weddings” band), 8 piece band with 20+ years experience, is your premium source (without the premium price) for high energy musical entertainment specializing in wedding receptions, corporate functions and more. Clients consistently compliment the band (check out our testimonial page) for their accessibility, willingness to personalize each performance and almost magical ability to engage guests at each event. From beginning to end, Mirage serves up a class act that all age groups enjoy -from today's dance music to the sounds of the big band era. Always fresh and entertaining, Mirage brings its' own brand of excitement and fun to each and every event. From countless wedding receptions, a feature on Fox 2 News to an engagement at The Fabulous Fox Theater, to pre-game entertainment at The Jones Dome for the St. Louis Rams, Mirage entertains those that are young and those young at heart. Mirage consists of 8 pieces - keyboards, bass and rhythm guitars, drums, a dynamic female vocalist (who tours with the United States Air Force Band when not performing with Mirage and is truly ONE OF THE BEST in the St. Louis area) and a wonderfully talented horn section of trumpet, sax and trombone. We are proud to say Mirage still contains several of the founding members (a characteristic not found in most bands who may change personnel year to year) - while the horn section (though not with Mirage from the beginning), has “played together” for 30 years. What this means to our clients is a unified group of musicians who truly enjoy performing with one another and is evident by the fun they have on stage. Mirage adds to it's diversity with ALL members contributing vocally, adding a full rich sound not prevalent in most bands, with only a singer or two up front. While we are very proud of our past accomplishments, awards, client comments, et al, we let our product speak for itself – meaning we invite you to come out and experience Mirage at a live performance. Out of respect for our client’s privacy, we do NOT print our private event schedule on our website. However, we’ll be happy to make the necessary arrangements for you to come out and hear the band live, something we highly recommend. For your convenience, Mirage does accept credit card payments. Most importantly, thank you for considering Mirage for your entertainment needs!
