RoundAbout represents a partnership between some of the finest musical talents in Northern New England. It is their goal to reproduce the sounds, rhythms, and vocal performances of the most popular dance music of the past five decades. Early on, RoundAbout's members made serious commitments to perfecting the art and craft of their music. They are in it for the duration. They e-n-j-o-y what they do, however, they are never satisfied with staying in one place musically, and are continually refreshing and refing their sound. Their respect for each other's professional competence is reflected in their relaxed comfort with each other, offstage or on, and enhances their easy rapport with their listeners.

RoundAbout has been favored by audiences wherever they go, whether they perform for a small group, night club, wedding, concert, or convention. The band always gets the same response: They end with an encore, and the audience still wants more. Their presence promises a fun, upbeat, good time. Audiences all over New England find their music exciting, tasteful, and great for dancing!
