Current popular cover band songs (this decade),

[easyj]

I am looking for some advice from those of you currently gigging. I play in a cover band: all older guys, electric and acoustic guitars, 1 keyboard, bass, drums, good vocals. We play a lot of classic rock, but we also do some 80’s stuff, some oldies, some alternative rock, but nothing from this century. We are trying to get some modern stuff in our set list.

I am looking for suggestions of songs, from 2010 to present, that we might be able to pull off. I am interested in songs that consistently go over well with audiences, from your experience.

Some may not be post 2010, but I'm assuming you're trying to appease the dance crowd:

Get Lucky
Cake by the ocean
Uptown funk
Moves like Jagger
Shut Up and dance
Forget You

Those are my bands male dance songs.

Exes and Ohs.
Black Keys tunes are popular.
Weezer probably even more so.

Can you be specific about the songs by The Black Keys and Weezer that work well?
