• ​We are a variety rock band and play only popular songs from Classic Rock, Funk, and Top 40 that everyone knows and likes. We are a high energy crowd pleasing band with some of the finest musicians with many years of experience, working hard to make the show a success. ​

• ​We are a very family friendly band and enjoy our fans from age 3 to older rockers and we love them all! No drugs, alcohol, controversial dress.

• Our sound system can easily handle 500 people or more and we have lots of experience working with professional sound companies for large events.

• The band sounds great and a frequent comment we hear from sounds companies is that it's a pleasure to work with a band that is tight, and sounds as good as we do.

• West Street is a four piece band consisting of:

​

   Mike Forgione - Guitar and lead vocals
