The band started in 1997 as a 4 piece, The Virtual Horns with an option to add a real horn section. In 2004 we changed the name to the Philly Horn Band, and in 2010 we changed it again to the Philly Party Band. Over our 20 year history we performed for over 500 gigs and about 400 weddings. Our Last Gig was in May of 2017, A fundraiser for Saint Lukes.
