Your updated bio for Phoenix 5 now includes the Florida Guide’s Best Regional Band award. Here’s the revised version:

Phoenix 5 is a funk, soul, and reggae collective comprised of Central Florida’s most seasoned musicians. The band has appeared on Fox Good Day Tampa and is the recipient of Florida Guide’s Best Regional Band award. Phoenix 5 comprises a core 5-piece that can scale up to an 8-piece with the addition of the “Rising Horns” section, delivering a high-powered, groove-oriented experience guaranteed to entertain.

Known for unique spins on classic radio tunes from artists like Lenny Kravitz, The Beatles, Dua Lipa, Gnarls Barkley, Meghan Trainor, Marvin Gaye, Al Green, Curtis Mayfield, Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder, and Bob Marley, Phoenix 5 brings fresh energy to every performance.

Performance highlights include headlining The River O’Green Festival for the Mayor of Tampa, opening for Arrested Development, and playing major events such as the Lakeland Sun and Fun Festival, St. Pete’s 4th of July Festival, Tampa Bay Lightning Christmas Show, Winter Garden MLK Festival, Winter Haven Water Ski Festival, Lakeland Pig Fest, and Lake Wales Mardi Gras. Phoenix 5 is the go-to band for events, shows, and festivals, coming with a full backline, sound, PA, and upon request, a full stage.

Our dynamic dance band is making big waves up and down the Gulf Coast of Florida and beyond. Check out our 2024 show dates to #catchthe5 and sometimes #the8 for an epic experience to remember!
