Listen to TipTops

tiptop.jpg

The Tip Tops are a high-energy dance and show band based out of Mobile, Alabama. Their musical emphasis is "60's", "Motown" and "Rhythm & Blues."  The Four Tops, Otis Redding, The Temptations and Marvin Gaye are just a sample of the artists the Tip Tops cover.  Mix in some 50's from Elvis and Sam Cooke and some 80's funk by Kool & the Gang and round it off with the Commodores and you have three decades of music in just one show.

Beautiful, sensuous, and glittering are just a few words to describe "The Toppettes" which is a show in itself. These young ladies have mesmerized audiences throughout the southeast. The Supremes, Aretha Franklin, Gladys Knight, and The Pointer Sisters are just a few of the artists "The Toppettes" bring to your venue.

The high-energy, fast-stepping brass section (The Dancing Horns) make The Tip Tops a total entertainment package. Five part harmony, choreography, and costume changes will ensure your audience of a most enjoyable evening.

Featuring a powerful four-piece horn section, the group specializes in the melodic orchestration of 1960’s Atlantic Soul made popular by such artists as Otis Redding, Wilson Pickett, and Sam & Dave; the brassy punch of 1970’s classic acts like Chicago and Stevie Wonder; and the slick grooves of 1970’s funk characterized by Earth Wind & Fire and the Average White Band. The All-Stars also acknowledge their hometown roots and the influence of New Orleans R&B artists such as The Meters, The Neville Brothers, and Dr. John.

Listen to The Topcats

The TOPCATS
 
One of the most important ingredients for success in any party band is the ability to entertain. This aspect of The Topcats is easily handled by Rob Schulte. Whether behind the drums or "out front", entertaining comes natural to him. After all, his father, God rest his soul, was a professional clown! Rob's antics and the ability to "shake his bootie" give every night's performance a boost that is important to the success of The Topcats. At most shows, Rob shows off his famous surfboard routine. At first, Rob is surfing on a surfboard that is resting on two trash cans that have drum triggers built into them. Then, after he wipes out on the surfboard, Rob plays "Wipeout" on the trash cans! What a finale!
