Photo of Lifetime Rocker Entertainment Services Lifetime Rocker Entertainment Services "Great band with awesome song selections. Go see them you won't regret it. Tell your friends, I have!" Based in Temecula, California Nancy Spradling (Facebook fan review) Photo of Ken Sprinkle Acoustic Rock and Blues Ken Sprinkle Acoustic Rock and Blues "We have customers from all ages who really like Ken who's performed here many times. His show is engaging and is always a crowd pleaser with music from the 60's to current. It is amazing what he does with an acoustic guitar to recreate some of the best tunes from Beatles, van Morrison, AC/DC etc. Very good entertainer!" Based in Vista, California (21 miles from Temecula) 27th August 2026 Ashley - Belching Beaver Brewery Photo of SoRockBlu Band SoRockBlu Band "I had the pleasure of seeing this band perform at a local club in my city! I had the most fun that I have had in a long time dancing and sing along to all the great songs they performed! I hired them for a private wedding anniversary and everyone was just blown away by the band's energy and interaction with the crowd and had us dancing all night! But definitely recommend this band for your event or your club or function!" Based in Oceanside, California (25 miles from Temecula) Lee - Private Party Photo of Platinum Pianist Platinum Pianist "Petra entertained our dinner party with exceptional piano playing and by being there and present “in the mood.” Beginning with a previously discussed play list she read the tone of the gathering and the personalities of those present - improvising by reading the mood. Her effervescent personality added immeasurably to the evening, with hugs all around as the gathering ended." Based in Carlsbad, California (26 miles from Temecula) 7th July 2026 Charles Andy Matthews - private party Photo of Lefty Martin & His Right Hand Band Lefty Martin & His Right Hand Band "Great Band! They played for our member's western night at our Golf Club and it was a huge success! The members had a great time and raved about Lefty Martin and His Right Hand Band! There were even some members who were not country music fans but thought the band was awesome. They were very easy to work with, and I can't wait to welcome them back for another event!"
