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 Sticks And Stone Percussion Sticks And Stone Percussion "Stephen and his crew were amazing. Total Pros, arriving and setting up on time, followed cues and were completey respectful of our conservative crowd. Most importantly, the music sounded great! I'll book Sticks and Stone Percussion the next opportunity I get!" Based in Edmonton, Alberta Chris Schar - Jireh Industries 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 Moving Lines Moving Lines "“Powerful voice “Moving Lines - Love the way she sings very flattering stardom vocalist. audiences suggesting. their penchant for excess and the hyper-intense of their music is great. Based on their excellent band”. Moving Lines - the lead singer-songwriter has her words perfectly establish what’s to follow. Across the record’s “Dreams Will Never Die “ is one of the best vocalists I’ve heard for a while. The highlighting that the band developments and will be successes are ultimately their own reward for the experimentation on display. Great Work…..”" Based in Summerland, British Columbia (381 miles from Edmonton) Grimes Magazine Photo of Buddy and the scarecrow Buddy and the scarecrow "From the very first time I saw/heard this band at the FAIRVIEW PUB I knew they were something special, what sets this band apart from most is the way they play as a seamless unit, great jams that can get you moving on the dance floor and every member of the band is a really nice person that will engage in a conversation with any fan. I have seen them play many many times and each time I leave I am left wanting more and awaiting the next show. If you have not seen this band I suggest you take the time to seek them out and hear what you have been missing" Based in Vancouver, British Columbia (511 miles from Edmonton) TED COPELAND - just a fan of good music
