Rory Lynch is a singer/songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and composer based in Santa Cruz, CA. He migrated to the west coast after a stint in NYC headlining shows at venues like The Bitter End and Pianos. His decision to move provided inspiration for a new collection of songs that showcase classic genres like country, jazz, and pop while blending in classic Americana themes. Rory’s smooth deep croon harkens back to the first days of Country Folk and fits nicely next to modern artists like Orville Peck and Sturgill Simpson.

The Night Agents aren’t just a band—they are the ultimate social dance party. Founded by Jeremy Pilling, professional dancer and owner of the Palomar Ballroom, the group was built with a singular mission: to create a cover band that would keep the dance floor packed all night long. Not only can you freestyle to every song, but you can partner dance to every song, something unique to their band.

Fronted by the suave male & female lead duo, they deliver an authentic multi-decade, multi-genre experience few bands can match. This intriguing 5 piece band moves effortlessly through rock, pop, hip-hop, and disco. From the grit of ZZ Top and the groove of Michael Jackson to the flow of Young MC and the pure pop of ABBA, the momentum is dramatic and energetic.

Whether you’re looking to West Coast Swing to a modern groove, East Coast Swing to a classic rock hit, or just freestyle to the 70s-2000s, the energy never stops. If you're ready to dance through the decades, they are ready to play.
