Each performance features a setlist tailored specifically to the occasion, featuring only live instruments and zero backing tracks.

You may have seen them performing for the Anaheim Ducks, Amazon Web Services, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, the Michael Phelps Foundation, Toms, The OC Marathon, and other prominent organizations of all stripes. Not to mention, they’ve also entertained at private parties for 5 Seconds of Summer, Olympians Shaun White and Michael Phelps, former *NSYNC member Lance Bass, as well as for pop rock star Ryan Cabrera and WWE pro-wrestler Alexa Bliss’s wedding. They’ve also shared the stage with rapper Nelly, *NSYNC members Lance Bass, Joey Fatone, and Chris Kirkpatrick, Snoop Dogg, Tre Cool of Green Day, Biz Markie, Ryan Key of Yellowcard, Stan Frazier and Murphy Karges of Sugar Ray, illusionist David Blaine, and (as a surprise guest to both the band and their audience) NBA Hall of Famer and budding ‘90s cover band lead singer Dennis Rodman. With Sega Genecide, you get the camaraderie and synergy of a band who’ve been playing together for over a decade, the talent necessary to add new songs to their setlist each week, and the work ethic you can rely on for them to perform a five star show no matter what kind of event you plan to host.
