Question 1

Do you play corporate events?

Accepted Answer

Yes — corporate parties, holiday events, company offsites, conferences, product launches, and brand activations are a core part of what we do. We bring a polished, high-energy show that reads the room — background grooves during dinner, dance-floor anthems after. We're comfortable with corporate run-of-show, AV coordination, and tight stage times.

Question 2

Can you play bars and clubs?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. GEMS is built for bar and club nights — loud, tight, and relentless. We pack dance floors with '80s, '90s, and 2000s anthems and we know how to keep a room moving from the first song to last call. We play venues all over San Francisco and the Bay Area.

Question 3

What kinds of events do you play?

Accepted Answer

Corporate events, private parties, bar and club nights, festivals, fundraisers, and brand activations all over the Bay Area. If there's a dance floor and a sound system, we're interested.

Question 4

How much does it cost to book GEMS?

Accepted Answer

Pricing depends on the event type, location, date, and set length. Reach out with the details and we'll send a quote within a couple of days.

Question 5

How long are your sets?

Accepted Answer

We're flexible. Typical bookings are two 60–75 minute sets with a break, but we can scale to a single high-energy set or a full night of music depending on what your event needs. Need a four-hour show? We can do that with two breaks.

Question 6

What areas of the Bay Area do you cover?

Accepted Answer

San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley, San Jose, Marin, the Peninsula, the East Bay, Walnut Creek, Danville, North Bay, Napa, and Sonoma. We'll travel further for the right event — just ask.

Question 7

Do you bring your own sound and lights?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We can provide a full PA and stage lighting for most venues, or play through your venue's house system. Let us know your setup and we'll match it.

Question 8

How far in advance should we book?

Accepted Answer

The earlier the better — weekends in spring, summer, and the holiday season fill up fastest. We've taken bookings months out and last-minute fills; reach out and we'll let you know what's open.

Question 9

Can we request specific songs?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We have a deep catalog of '80s, '90s, and 2000s anthems and we're happy to learn a key song or two for special moments.
