San Antonio / Hill Country · DJs & Music
Variety dance band playing Texas weddings since 1999 — country to classic rock to current hits.
why book them
A live band that reads a Hill Country crowd: boots for the country sets, everyone up for the 80s.
Gunpowder Soup has been the live-band answer at Texas weddings since 1999, with hundreds of weddings played and a 5.0-star average across more than 400 reviews on Google, The Knot, and WeddingWire. The repertoire runs country, classic rock, 80s, ballads, and current dance hits — the exact spread a multi-generation Hill Country guest list demands.
The operation scales: full variety dance band, dedicated country configuration, vocal jazz groups for cocktail hour, and trios for smaller rooms. They're a preferred vendor at major Texas resorts and are repeatedly praised for engaging crowds and extending sets when the floor refuses to quit.
