80s – U.S.
U.S., for those who don’t already know, is a rock band whose main mission seems to be keeping rock music alive and well in the southeast. A good bit of their set is rock from the 80’s but don’t let that fool you, just when you think you’ve got them pegged they’ll kick off with a country standard like “Calling Baton Rouge” or “Save A Horse” and then turn it all around with their “Summer Love/Greased Lightning” medley from Grease. They entertain and interact with the crowds constantly and keep them involved. These fellows know how to show a crowd a good time.
They deliver every show like it’s the first one they’ve ever done or the last one they’ll ever do. U.S. has been burning up the highways for a long time and when you talk to Kelly Nagy, the vocalist, you get the feeling that he hasn’t lost an ounce of enthusiasm since they started. You can tell they enjoy what they do. Kelly, Jeff Manns (guitar), Richie Wright (drums) and Corey Lessard (bass) always spend a lot of time visiting with people and taking pictures between sets. They are very friendly and appreciative of all their fans and their fans seem to feel the same way. Some people travel long distances to see this band. Their elaborate stage setup is something that has to be experienced, there are giant video monitors, fog and more lights than the mothership in Close Encounters, and that’s just the backdrop for what happens onstage.

“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
