FAQ's

How much does it cost to book your band?
We customize our pricing based on your event and budget. Want a quote? No pressure — just give Brian a call at 705-497-8779 or hit us up through our contact page. We keep our rates competitive and our value sky-high.

Will I recognize the songs? What do you play?
If you have listen to mainstream music or MTV, you will know ZZ Top. From the hard-hitting classics to deep cuts, we’ve got the whole catalog covered — including hits like Sharp Dressed Man, La Grange, Legs, Tush, Cheap Sunglasses, and more. It’s a high-octane show packed with songs you’ll love.

What kind of events do you play?
We bring the party wherever it’s needed — from theatres and festivals to motorcycle rallies, corporate events, private parties, universities, cruise ships, and charity gigs. If you’ve got a crowd, we’ve got the show.

How far will you travel?
We’re road-ready with Canadian passports and a hunger for the highway (or the runway).  We are ready to go Nationwide! 

So... what’s your show like?
It’s a full-on ZZ Top experience — not just the music, but the look, the feel, and the attitude. Costumes, lights, props, lasers, haze, and storytelling combine to deliver a true “ZZ Top-u-mentary” that hits all the senses.

How long is your show?
We’re flexible, but the sweet spot is 90 minutes. We can do anything from a tight 60 to a full 2-hour set depending on your event.

What kind of tech setup do you need?
We keep it simple and professional. We will send you a full tech rider and stage plot. Our crew is always ready to collaborate with your tech team.

Do you need hotels and meals?
That depends on the gig. We'll chat about logistics based on your location and schedule.

Do we have to provide gear like drums, amps, PA, and lights?
We prefer to bring our own gear so we can nail our sound — but we’re happy to work with your setup if it meets our specs. Our tech team will make sure everything’s locked in.

Why book “That Little Ole Band” over another tribute act?
ZZ Top has a legendary 50-year legacy and appeals across generations. Our show pulls in fans of all ages, and smart marketing can attract folks from well outside your region. We’ve seen it boost everything from wristband sales to local tourism.

Who’s your main audience?
Our biggest fans are baby boomers with a love for live music — and the means to enjoy it. They’re great ticket buyers, loyal supporters, and love collecting memories (and merch) from our shows.

Do you sell merchandise?
Typically, we don’t run a merch table — but we’re always open to custom opportunities if it makes sense for your event.

Can fans meet the band?
Absolutely! We love connecting with the crowd. After the show, we offer photo ops with a custom backdrop — perfect for fans to share and remember the night.

What’s your fan base like?
We’ve built a solid following that includes ZZ Top diehards, tribute show fans, and people who’ve followed our musicians in other projects. Our social media reach is strong, and we stay connected to a wide and loyal audience.

Do you help promote the show?
Big yes. We provide high-res photos, promo videos, and marketing support. We’ll even do media interviews and push the event on our channels. Your success is our success.

Do you play charity events?
Yes — we aim to perform at 3 to 4 charity events a year. Reach out and let’s see if we can make something great happen together.

How far in advance can I book you?
We book up to 24 months in advance. Popular dates go quickly, so if you’ve got your eye on a weekend or holiday gig, don’t wait too long.

Do you require a deposit?
Yes, we ask for a 50% deposit to lock in the date. The rest of the details — including refund policies — are clearly outlined in our contract.

Is there a contract involved?
Our contracts and riders are written in plain language, covering all the essentials to make your event smooth, fun, and successful.
