5/5 from 435 reviews
Photo of Hub Zeppelin Hub Zeppelin "Checked them out at Montes in Dartmouth Wow they Rocked the place everyone was impressed got to go see them highly recommended" Based in Halifax, Nova Scotia William Reginald Eccles - bar venue Photo of Corey Rieman and The Dilemma Band Corey Rieman and The Dilemma Band "How do I get across how good this band is. Everyone is so talented. And the lead singer has a talent and a charisma that is unique, real and wholly impressive. His voice is so genuine and so pleasantly different. Lead guitar dude rips. Just absolutely rips. Rhythm section crushed it at full groove level. Drummer is crisp and on it , bass is always on point. The woman on tambourine added such a nice flavor. Hired for an outside town event. Everyone loved the band. Everybody. It’s a no brainer" Based in Hartford, Connecticut, United States (500 miles from Halifax) David Sieling - Town Employee Photo of Grant Swift Grant Swift "Grant is an excellent musician and talent to work with. We recently used him for a corporate event where we brought in a number of our global senior leaders for a New York conference and have Grant perform at our reception was an incredible way to elevate the evening. He sang well, read the room and adjusted as needed, offered a wide variety of songs that resonated with the global crowd and performed in a way that still enabled networking and conversations. Can't wait to use Grant again soon!"

Based in Union, New Jersey, United States (607 miles from Halifax) Karl Becker - Private wedding Photo of Joshua Kocses Joshua Kocses "Joshua performs acoustic guitar and dual lead vocals with Sean Cox DC Duo and they are amazing. Their range of material spans from decades of performing in the New York, New Jersey and Los Angels & Orange County California area in restaurants, pubs, clubs, private parties, weddings, yacht clubs, boats and veterans/military events. Joshua is a former US Marine and that level of precision is scene and heard in their music. They interact with their audiences and make different people of all types feel welcome."
