Great Show at Skippyfest, and a great turnout on a beautiful summer day!! Thanks again for all who came out to enjoy the celebration. Skippy's and MRB thank you for your support for the Make-A-Wish Foundation. We really appreciate all the support from our Families, Fans, and Friends.

MRB's next public event is the BigPigGig in Menomonee Falls - Sunday, September 21st. See you there!

 

The Mission River Band plays the great music from the “golden age of rock” - The Beatles, The Stones, Clapton, The Eagles, Van Morrison, Led Zeppelin, the Allman Brothers, Santana, Neil Young, Tom Petty, and some interesting “deep cuts” as well a few classic R&B favorites.

MRB evolved from the friendship of a group of guys - all busy in their professions, dedicated to their families, and active in the community – who got together to play simply for the joy of making music with people they liked. After a number of months of informal rehearsing on a semi-regular basis, in 2006, Mission River tested the performance waters, playing out at some private parties and local taverns. The response was more than the guys expected, and positive feedback fueled the desire to improve the performance and tighten the sound.

As the friendships deepened, the musicianship improved, and the repertoire expanded, the “mission” of Mission River also evolved. MRB is unique in that the band’s inspiration and motivation comes from performing in support of causes that are important to the group’s members. MRB has performed in support of fundraising events for organizations including Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Lumen Christi Parish School, the Boerner Botanical Gardens, Special Olympics, and the Retinal Research Foundation.

Check out the upcoming schedule. Come on out and join The Mission River Band in a celebration of the music we love, in support of causes we believe in. What’s better than Classic Rock, except Rock for a Reason?

Mission River… Let it flow.
