80s – U.S.
U.S. is a high-octane rock powerhouse dedicated to the art of the live performance, delivering a stadium-sized experience to stages across the Southeast and beyond. Led by the infectious enthusiasm of vocalist Kelly Nagy, the band approaches every show with a “first-night” intensity that has earned them a fiercely loyal following. Alongside Jeff Manns on guitar, Richie Wright on drums, and Corey Lessard on bass, the group has spent years burning up the highways, building a reputation not just for their musical precision, but for an genuine connection with their fans that extends well beyond the final encore.
The sonic identity of U.S. is rooted in the legendary rock anthems of the 1980s, but their versatility keeps audiences on their toes and the energy levels peaking. Just when the crowd feels the weight of a heavy-hitting rock set, the band masterfully pivots, seamlessly weaving in country standards like “Calling Baton Rouge” or high-energy theatrical medleys from Grease. Their repertoire is a curated journey through the greatest hits of all time, featuring the soaring harmonies of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” the anthemic drive of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” and the raw, electric power of AC/DC, Van Halen, and Guns N’ Roses.
Visually, the U.S. stage production is a massive, sensory experience designed to captivate high-capacity venues. The show features an elaborate setup highlighted by giant video monitors, atmospheric fog, and a lighting rig so extensive it rivals a major arena tour. This cinematic backdrop serves as the perfect environment for their interactive performance style, as the band members constantly engage with the crowd, ensuring every person in attendance feels like a part of the show.
Whether headlining a major festival or commanding the stage at a premier casino or theatre, U.S. brings a level of professionalism and passion that is increasingly rare. Between sets, the band remains approachable and appreciative, spending time with the fans who often travel long distances to experience their “mothership” of a stage show. For an evening defined by “fist-in-the-air” rock classics—from Def Leppard’s “Pour Some Sugar on Me” to Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ on a Prayer”—U.S. is the definitive choice for world-class, high-energy entertainment.

“We hired The US Band for our daughter’s wedding on 4/3/21 in Chattanooga, TN. It was EPIC! The bride and groom had an unforgettable night and Kelly even included them on stage and let them perform a little! All of the guests raved about how much they enjoyed the band and how much fun they had! They kept the crowd engaged the entire night. They have an impressive stage presence with great lighting and video screens.Kelly was very easy to work with and made sure that we had an incredible reception that none of us will ever forget!” – Karen Collins
“My husband, Trey, and I were able to have The Band U.S. play at our wedding. We both ‘grew up’ watching them during our college years so we knew we had to have them help us celebrate our big day. But what makes U.S. different from any other band, is how personable they were. The band brought Trey’s grandfather on stage to sing 2 songs as the band had seen him sing during our ceremony. What was even more special, was that Trey, his grandfather, and Cole Hill (local Hattiesburg musician who sang our first dance songs) were all able to take the stage together with U.S. for a few songs. It was a night we will never forget and we can’t help but be grateful to have had such an amazing wedding reception with the help of U.S.! Thank y’all for everything! We still have so many family/friends talk about the amazing time they had thanks to y’all!!” – Nicole Tavares
“We had US The Band play at our wedding in September 2020. They absolutely made our night!!! They were SO great from the minute we booked them until they left that night-great communication, attentive to our requests, so kind, and SO FUN! We totally recommend US for any type of party you may plan-they will make it the best!” – Garrett & Raegan Hines
