We have fun, so you have fun!

Necessary Diversion has been bringing FUN to stages in the Upper Midwest since 2010. Crowds love us because they know every song we play!
Event planners love us because we are friendly, professional and flexible.
As performers, there really isn't anything we would rather be doing than
playing great music for great people! 

We can't wait to see you soon!
