Please hire them. Best band ever, we had Latin jazz music at our wedding, and I gave such a great vibe to it.
Sara H.,   Atlanta, GA
Hiring COT band was the best decision we made in all of our wedding plans! We had a mixed crowd of guests including Puerto Ricans and Americans, and the live Latin music was a hit for everyone. Our dance floor was packed the entire evening! We have received so many compliments from our guests about the band. In addition, Willie and the team have been so kind and great to work with throughout the entire process. I absolutely recommend!
Ashley J.,   Asheville, NC
This is a fantastic band ! They play the best music, and are so much fun ! Love COT
Priya P.,   Atlanta, GA
C.O.T. Band provided an outstanding evening of entertainment to accompany a fundraising dinner for us. We had a (nominally) Old Havana styled evening and their music was the perfect accompaniment for our chef’s menu. They brought just the right energy and were very accommodating of our small quarters. Throughout the booking process, Willie was always responsive (though in no way pushy); meeting him and his band in person on the evening of the event reassured me that this had been the right choice. I cannot underscore how impressed we were with this C.O.T. Band from the beginning through the end – a professional, talented, and delightful group that exceeded our expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend them to any one for an enjoyable performance!
Brian M.,   Atlanta, GA
We had such a great time last night with COT Band. The playlist was on point and they did a great job accommodating song requests. When they weren't performing live they kept the party going with a great selection of salsa, merengue, bachata and reggaeton. I highly recommend COT Band if you want to dance the night away.
Sergio C.,   Atlanta, GA
We have hired Willie and Juan from the COT band for several Georgia Hispanic Bar Association events over the past two years, each with around 300 guests. They are absolutely fantastic! Their Latin and salsa music, complete with incredible live horn instruments, always gets the party going and keeps the energy high. They are professional, punctual, and incredibly respectful—everything you could hope for when booking live entertainment. If you want a lively, unforgettable event with top-tier musicians, COT band is the way to go. Highly recommend!
William O.,   Atlanta, GA
C.O.T band was amazing!! From the start, they were extremely communicative, easy to work with, and made the planning process a breeze. They were also super flexible when we had to get creative to work around some rain. They put on a GREAT SHOW. Everyone was dancing and having a great time! I'd book again in a heartbeat. I am so thankful to have worked with this band!
Logan E.,   Chattanooga, TN

C.O.T. means Circle Of Trust. Back in 2010, our band started performing at a venue with a small stage, in order all of us could see each other and connect better was to form a circle.

We play a wide variety of latin rhythms like salsa, merengue, cumbia, timba, bachata, ballenato, reggaeton, bolero, rumba, samba, samba reggae, bossa nova. Also we like to make some fussion with funk, disco and blues. We do play covers, but also play originals, you can check our live videos.

expand_more Do I need to provide a PA/Sound system, or can the band handle it?

The PA (Public Address) system amplifies the sound from the instruments, vocals, and acoustic sources so your audience can enjoy a clear and balanced performance. Choosing the right sound setup is essential for a successful event. If your venue already has a professional PA system suitable for live music, we can connect directly to it. Otherwise, we can provide and manage the complete sound system for you. Please let us know the estimated number of guests so we can bring the right equipment to ensure optimal sound quality for your event.

expand_more Do you provide your own sound equipment and setup?

Yes. C.O.T. Band is a fully self-contained group within the Southeast region. We bring our own instruments, microphones, cables, and in-ear monitoring system, ensuring a fast and professional setup for any venue or festival. We can connect directly to your production company's console (Left and Right main outputs) or provide a complete PA system for up to 1,000 guests if needed. This setup simplifies logistics, minimizes soundcheck time, and guarantees consistent sound quality - while still allowing your sound engineer to make real-time adjustments through our Wi-Fi-enabled mixer. For air-travel events outside the Southeast, the client must provide equivalent backline and sound equipment.

expand_more Can we use your sound system for speeches and announcements?

Yes! We can provide wireless microphones for speeches, presentations, toasts, and announcements using our professional sound system, so there's no need to rent or set up additional audio equipment.

expand_more What are your power requirements?

If we are providing the PA/sound system, we require at least three (3) separate 120V AC, 20-amp circuits, each on a dedicated circuit breaker and properly grounded. The circuits should be available near the performance area and must not be shared with other vendors or equipment.

If the stage is outside we'll need a tent to protect the instruments. We require cover and a flat, hard, dry surface to play on. Also, water and heat can damage instruments, so please keep this in mind when placing the band. We always recommend to have a backup plan just in case!

expand_more Do you require beverages on stage, meals, a green room or any additional spaces/set up?

Yes, please, a meal for our team members will be appreciated. We'll also need a case of cold bottle spring water on stage. We do not require a green room, but if you choose to have one for us we'll appreciate it A LOT!
