"Men In Black’s passion for energetic party rock is a result of the band’s musical leanings. Formed originally in the early 1990s by high school friends Brad, Keith, Bob, and Joe, the band was playing some of rock’s best contemporary songs at the time. The set list included an exciting collection of pop rock, alternative, grunge, and classic rock.

After an extended pause to pursue life’s other offerings, Men In Black re-formed in 2011 and was joined by high school classmate and long-time friend Larry. Expanding upon their original roots, the set list combines a vibrant and unique mix of popular songs with an edge from the 1960s to the 2010s, including many selections from the band’s 1990s period. Crowds love the song mix, and many have complimented Men In Black for playing songs not typically heard elsewhere. Our dear friend Larry semi-retired in late 2018, but the band continued forward by adding another friend from the past as App State (and NC State) alumni Jeff joined. Men in Black plays regularly at ROAR, Gas Hill, Dragon Glass Winery, Second and Green Tavern and Incendiary. They have appeared at numerous other venues including Amos' Southend in Charlotte. Wherever you find Men in Black, be ready for a lively show of favorites from many genres."
