Los Angeles
The Los Angeles band for all genres of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s
Knyght Ryder is based in Long Beach and has played all over Los Angeles County since 2002, from the L.A. Convention Center to Laurel Canyon to the Biltmore. Every Friday night you can catch us at Gaslamp in Long Beach.
Weddings, corporate events, private parties and summer concerts in the park. Anywhere within an hour of Long Beach is covered by our published rates, so there are no travel fees to guess at.
Every guest hears their song
A one-artist show is a great night for that artist's fans. Your guest list is bigger than that. In one night we go from The Smiths to Metallica to Backstreet Boys to Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre: all genres of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s, played live.
The 80s kids get their moment, the 90s kids get theirs, and the dance floor never waits around for a hit that might not come. You tell us the songs you love and the ones to skip. We read the room and steer the rest of the night where the crowd wants to go.
