JammSammich

HUGE 10 Year Anniversary Party February 2nd!

About Me

JammSammich is a six-piece party band from Peoria, Illinois, playing a wide variety of music, ranging from disco, R&B, Funk, soul, retro 80's, acoustic funk, island music, to downright CHEESE! Whatever packs a dancefloor. We've played hundreds of venues in our 10-year history, bars, clubs, events, festivals...even Vegas! Where shaking of the booty is required, there too you'll find us. We're sponsored by Budweiser True Music and Mix 105.7 and Triple A Entertainment. We currently specialize in cover music but have recorded individually with different projects...and when the time is right, we'll drop our own jams. Right now, the world is not ready.
