Based in Barnstead, New Hampshire (68 miles from Boston) Customer - High octane 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 (93 miles from Boston) David Sieling - Town Employee Photo of Good Trouble Good Trouble "Excellent performance, funny, friendly, kind, generous. Fun to be around. 10/10 recommended" Based in Plainville, Connecticut (104 miles from Boston) Ellie McManus - Party

Hiring classic rock bands is a popular choice for weddings, birthday parties, corporate events, pub and bar gigs, festivals and any event where high-energy live music is the focus. Classic rock has universal appeal and works particularly well for audiences who enjoy guitar-driven music.

Rock bands are generally louder than acoustic or jazz acts. Most classic rock bands can adjust their volume to suit the venue, and many carry equipment that allows them to control sound levels. It is a good idea to discuss any noise restrictions or volume concerns with the band before booking.

Most classic rock bands are self-contained and provide their own instruments, amplifiers and PA system for standard event venues. For larger stages or outdoor events, additional sound and monitoring equipment may be needed. To get the best results, confirm technical requirements with the band.
