River Ratz Band

Unfortunately, due to circumstances out of our control, our June 6th show has been canceled. We were looking forward to rocking with you all, but don’t worry… we’ve already picked up ANOTHER festival date for July 5th in Plano! 🤘🎶

Fun fact: every single gig we’ve booked so far this year has been festival-bound… except for one awesome campground party coming up in September! We seriously can’t explain how cool it feels to keep getting picked as part of these festival lineups. Huge thanks to everyone supporting us, booking us, and coming out to party with the band.

Hey River Ratz Fans!
June 6th @ Boondocks Tiki Bar is currently cancelled until further notice. But don’t fret! We have a summer jam packed at festivals!!

Festival Season is officially HERE for River Ratz 🎶🔥

For years we cut our teeth playing the local bars, American Legions, and anywhere that would let us plug in and turn it up. Now, seeing our calendar packed with festivals, car shows, campgrounds, biker events, and big summer parties honestly means the world to us.

This year marks the MOST festival style events we’ve ever had booked … and it feels like all the hard work, late nights, hauling equipment, and support from YOU has finally pushed us into a whole new season for the band. We couldn’t be more grateful. ❤️

Here’s a look at what’s coming up:

📍 July 5th - Plano Festival - Event Details coming soon

📍 July 17 – Village of Creston IL, 250th USA Celebration

📍 July 25 – Dirty Birds Car Show Sycamore
Classic cars, loud music, and summer nights 😎
