THE RETREADS

Rockin the Treasure Valley and West Coast for over a decade. Book Now!


Welcome To The Retreads Website.

Here’s where you can find out about the band, upcoming shows, see videos, hear some songs and contact us for booking or more information.  Take some time to browse the site and look around!  The Retreads are a fun, dynamic and energetic band from Boise and Meridian whose niche is “playing between the lines.” The Retreads offer a great selection of classic to modern rock, pop and dance, Rhythm and Blues, and even Country songs you’re sure to know and blend in a unique mix of b-sides and less well-known tracks that are always crowd favorites. Our eclectic set and performance features variety that’s sure to please even the most discriminating audiences. The Retreads believe in having fun and making sure the client and audience is happy and entertained. You can expect nothing but top-notch professionalism, a fantastic selection of music and great sound from these seasoned musicians.

The Retreads also offer a stripped-down approach for smaller venues or gigs where sound level may be an issue.  Referred to by the band as “half-plugged”, this arrangement features all the same songs in the band’s playlist but performed with an electronic drum kit or percussion and either electric or acoustic guitars.

We provide several options for performing. We can play in the full 5 piece show band with female leads vocal, 4 or 3 piece with full band gear or Half-Plugged (Semi Acoustic) for teh intimate and small settings. There’s something for just about everyone to be found at a Retread’s show so check the calendar, sign up for our mailing list and come out and have a great time! Hope to see you at a show soon!

The Retreads

Meet The Band

The Retreads players are: JD Stefan on Guitar, Keyboards, Drums, Lead Vocals and any other instrument you can hand him.  Yeah he’s that good.  Trent Hill on Guitar and Lead Vocals. Patrick Pfeifer on Bass Guitar, Lead Vocals and Cowbell (via his feet).  Paul Kerr on Drums and Percussion.  And last but not least, Vittoria Milbourn on Lead Vocals and Percussion.

With over 12 years of playing together, 4 of the band members sing lead vocals, making the variety endless and never stale.  All voices offer different tones and specialties, as well as great 4 part harmonies on most songs.  The addition of Vittoria makes the song list choices and possibilities endless.  Being professional players, the band tend to tackle songs other cover bands would never attempt.  Read the players bios below.  Come up and say hi at the next show.  Rock on!
