Orphan Boy features tight vocal harmonies and versatile song selection – the songlist has been constantly and thoughtfully refined on an ongoing basis through the years to address a wide profile within the realm of “classic rock.” It’s an extensive array of ‘good-time’ music you may well know by heart – it’s for everyone who likes to dance, bob their head or tap their foot.
The band has a large and very loyal following. The Orphan Boy Rock Band has always been enthusiastically welcomed back. The group conducts itself professionally, is very reliable, dresses to fit the occasion, and has its own sound system and stage lighting.
Some people go to dance, others to watch and listen, but mostly people get caught up in Orphan Boy’s ‘atmosphere of fun.’ No matter the place or occasion, a party breaks out – people leave at the end of the show tired from dancing and hoarse from singing along. Orphan Boy is Colorado’s premier 'good time' rock band.
