Louisiana’s Best Party Band
Widely hailed as Louisiana’s best party band, Flamethrowers pride themselves on thinking outside of the cover band box. They pack dance floors at wedding receptions, fundraisers, Mardi gras balls, private & corporate events, and clubs across the Gulf Coast with their deep catalog of hits – old and new, remembered and forgotten.

Audiences love them for their powerhouse vocals, guitar wizardry, and groovy rhythm section. And with the recent addition of a top-tier horn section featuring some of the regions’ most talented players, the band has further cemented its place among the most versatile, reliable, and entertaining acts in the region.
