They have been the best band to play.here in Belleville. The vocals were right on. The instrumentals were excellent. I could not get enough if their music. Not one boring song." Based in Belleville, Ontario (45 miles from Kingston) Carol - Outdoor concert at Zwicks Park in Belleville Ontario Photo of Good To Go Good To Go "Perfect for our event. Flexible and engaging We had a wonderful time with Mike and Suzanne celebrating our parents 50th wedding anniversary. They were very responsive, flexible, reasonably priced, and even took some requests for specific songs. They also did a great job interacting with the crowd and even inviting some more of the brave guests to join and sing along for a few songs. Thank you to you both for a wonderful experience. • Rating:   *****   • Reviewer: Kelly Medio • Event Date: July 26th, 2023 • Services Provided: Cover Band" Based in Belleville, Ontario (45 miles from Kingston) Kelly Medio - Private Party Photo of Marky Band Marky Band "Band Name: The Mark Prest Band Album/Performance Review The Mark Prest Band delivers a solid performance with their latest work, offering a mix of catchy riffs and emotive lyrics. Their sound has a familiar vibe that will resonate with fans of Rock, yet they bring enough originality to stand out in a crowded scene. The production is good but not so polished, and gives each instrument its due attention, but sometimes it feels uncontrolled, lacking some raw energy. Vocally, the lead singer has a distinctive tone that fits well with the band’s overall style. However, there are moments where their delivery doesn’t quite reach the emotional depth that the music seems to promise. The choice of songs is generally strong, with several standout tracks that display their creative potential, but a few songs feel like filler, lacking the spark that makes the other tracks so engaging. In terms of performance, The Prest Band shows promise, but they haven't yet reached the level where they completely blow you away. With more time to refine their sound and experiment with different styles, there’s definitely room for them to grow and improve. Overall, Mark Prest is a promising group with some great moments, but they're not quite there yet. A 7/10 feels fitting, as they deliver a competent effort with plenty room for improvement.
