Think you know the unsung heroes behind the hits? Test your knowledge of iconic artists and the backing bands that powered their sound.

Cue the spotlight for the side of music that rarely gets top billing—the backing bands. In this group-friendly trivia, you’ll connect front performers with the ensembles that drove their biggest moments across decades and genres. It’s perfect for music nights, classrooms, company socials, or livestreams, and it works great both in-person and online. You can duplicate this quiz with a single click to remix questions, run multiple sessions, or create custom rounds for different groups. Host it on Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, YouTube Live, Twitch, or Kick, or project it in a meeting room for team play. Suggested flow: 20–40 seconds per question, reveal answers, and add a quick fun fact or debate moment. Try team-versus-team, lightning rounds for tie-breakers, and bonus steals for naming additional songs or years. Keep score with a shared sheet or poll, encourage team banter, and close with an encore bonus for style, creativity, or best team name.
