Reviews of 1970s Era Musicians & Bands based near Edmonton

4.9/5 from 11 reviews
Photo of RadioActive RadioActive "We held a 80’s themed 40th birthday party for my wife. We were rented out Plaza, bowling Co. For the evening and booked Radioactive to play the event. 10 out of 10! They reached out before the venue for details. They were on time, dress the part, played great hits from the 80s, and rocked out! We couldn’t have been more pleased! We will definitely be recommending them to everyone and anyone who is looking for a band to play at their event." Based in Edmonton, Alberta 23rd October 2026 Kevin - 80’s Themed Private Party Photo of Coffin Dodgers Coffin Dodgers "We’ve had plenty of live acts come through our doors, but The Coffin Dodgers are the ones people still talk about weeks later. Asking if/when they will be back. They know how to get a crowd moving, and their sound fills the room perfectly. Absolutely worth every penny we’ll be booking them again!" Based in Edmonton, Alberta David Mercer - Bar Owner Photo of The Strolling Accordionist The Strolling Accordionist "“Atmosphere” - I’m just going to state my bias right now: “I love Café Amore Bistro”. As soon as you walk in, one of the owners is right there greeting you with a smile; the serving staff are friendly and polite to a fault; the restaurant is bright and inviting in the daytime and dim and cozy and romantic at night. (There’s literally no other way to describe it. It’s a very intimate-feeling place at night.). There are always quirky little elements to look out for: Last time I went, there was an accordion player making his way around tables playing the smoothest damn music your ears have ever been graced with. The tables are close but you still feel like you have your space while you’re eating, and if you happen to spill your drink — and then maybe spill it again — the staff will be right there to offer you a napkin. They’re the sweetest. And, after you’ve stuffed yourself so full you can hardly stand the thought of getting up and going to your car, the owner will personally wish you a good night on your way out. A nicer, more courteous restaurant has never existed." Based in Edmonton, Alberta Victoria Chiu - The GATEWAY - U of A Media Photo of Playing With Fire Playing With Fire "Hello..I, along with friends, have seen this band twice in the last couple of months..once at St. Albert casino and then at Newcastle in Edmonton..our group dances all night so appreciate a good band that keeps us on the dance floor..this band, PLAYING WITH FIRE, did just that..it was a very fun night. Apparently, in the near future, they are going to be playing some new songs..interested to see what they have in store. If anything like the present we will be happy to see them live again. Check this band out. You will be happy you did." Based in Edmonton, Alberta Donna Photo of Alessandro Votta Alessandro Votta "We would look at have elvis , entertain us again in the future. Very happy with the way he had interaction with the crowd and his singing." Based in Calgary, Alberta (175 miles from Edmonton) 17th May 2026 Dale - Self Photo of Howard Lee Naylor Howard Lee Naylor "Howard arrived on time, promptly set up and was professional and polite. Howard shared his web page to listen to some of his work, this helped me to know what to expect and I was very happy to find him in a short notice. We enjoyed having Howard play at our client event. We received great feedback and reviews from our guests, everyone enjoyed his music! Howard even took and played some requests!"
