About Girls On Top!
Girls On Top! is a high-energy dance band playing the
greatest soul, funk, and R&B tunes from the 70's and 80's.
Funny, smart, and playful, Girls On Top! doesn’t just play the songs you love to hear…we put on
a hot show that has the crowd on their feet with an uncontrollable urge to shake their
collective booty. GOT! is composed of 7 talented musicians, including 3 spirited and sassy
female vocalists. The cure for the common cover band, Girls On Top! imbues every
performance with theatricality, musicianship, and humor, encouraging the audience to get in
on the fun. GOT! playing your event is a guaranteed good time for all!
Girls On Top! also books under the name Girls Night Out! upon request.
Our Manifesto
From our start 14 years ago, Girls On Top! has set a tradition of three vibrant and theatrical
front-women supported by a tight musical groove, with an emphasis on camaraderie and
showmanship. Unlike ordinary cover bands, Girls On Top! is committed to providing a show that
is as entertaining to watch as it is to listen to. We do not merely provide a musical backdrop for
our audiences; we encourage engagement, interaction, and participation. The band’s sheer joy
in performing together is dynamic and infectious, and leads the audience to want to get in on
the action. This is the goal of every Girls On Top! Performance: to persuade the audience to be
included in the fun, whether by dancing with wild abandon, by singing along to their favorite
tunes, or by celebrating on the tables – provided that has been approved by the venue!
Girls On Top! is not a group of musical guns-for-hire, but an eclectic family of artists with a
wealth of musical experience and backgrounds; the core of the group has been consistent for
14 years. We feel that our audiences deserve better than iPod versions of the songs we cover,
so we arrange everything we perform as a collaborative group, with each member bringing their
own varied tastes and aesthetics. The result is a polished version of the very best songs of the
classic R&B genre - seasoned with influences from rock, pop, classical, jazz, and world music –
which combine to create a unique sound and a musical footprint that can only belong to Girls
On Top!
The audience-oriented, musically-collaborative nature of Girls On Top! is what sets the band
apart, and has allowed us to retain our popularity over the last decade, with a strong
community of supporters and fans. In fact, Girls On Top! is highly sought-after for local festival
organizers and non-profit organizations because of our large audience draw to their events, and
has repeatedly received accolades by the readers of the Boulder Daily Camera, Boulder Weekly
and Colorado Daily, as runner up and honorable mention for the readers’ choice for Best Local
Band.

What people are saying about
Girls On Top!
“We hired the band, Girls on Top! for our annual event called “The Beach Ball”. The event
raises money for Impact on Education, which supports public schools in Boulder, Colorado. They
were amazing. So often at charity events the entertainment has a hard time getting the talking
to stop and the party to begin. Not with Girls on Top! As soon as they took the stage, the
entire 550 person crowd stopped what they were doing and started to party! They will
make your event the talk of the town!”
-Lori Mitchell, Chair, The Beach Ball
“Girls on Top! is our favorite local band. In the many times we have been to their performances, we have always had wonderful experiences. Their music is always top notch and the
atmosphere they create is so much fun that we had them play at our wedding. Girls On Top!
helped to make our wedding a truly joyous and groovy occasion—everybody danced,
from toddlers to grandparents! Girls On Top! is still our very favorite live band to dance to
—they are funky, sexy, and SO much fun!”
-Jennifer Norton, PhD, Licensed Psychologist
-Marc H. Vick, M.A., L.P.C., Psychotherapist
“Girls on Top! rocks the house with a fun stage show and dynamic musicianship. They fill the
Bandshell every year with one of the largest crowds of the festival. They generate contagious
excitement that keeps all ages smiling, dancing, and yearning for more!”
-Satir DeMarco, Entertainment Booking
“The Burma Bash Benefit is a great cause and we were so pleased to have your group involved
with the fundraiser. Your band’s energy, enthusiasm and sheer presence of "good heart" was
exactly the kind of match we were looking for!”
-Mary Brooks, President, Indochine Inc. & Burma Bash Coordinator
Girls
“Girls On Top! has always played to a sold out crowd at Nissi's. They get people up and
dancing right away and know how to engage an audience. That's why Girls On Top! is one of
our most popular bands whom we enjoy having back time and time again.”
-Teresa Taylor, Owner/Booking Agent
“Thanks so much for the fabulous music – really makes an event fun! We kept our expenses
so low that we are able to give Free a Child about $30,000 to stop human
slavery/sexual trafficking. Hopefully more women will have control
over their lives because of our efforts last night! We were
successful because so many generous people gave
their time and skills. Please thank all the members
of GOT!”
-Nicky Wolman, BoldeReach
