Smokes like Lightning
"Smokes Like Lightning did not disappoint ! High energy, solid bass with energetic and charismatic performance by Patrick, spirited and engaging saxophone by Mitch and Ethan made himself heard on drums to rock the crowd ! Great guitar Brock to support and lead the strong vocals and musicianship ! Can't wait to see you again at The Bunker in Stratford on June 22nd, and at Streetfest in Woodstock !"
Cheap Thrills
"Amazing Band!
We hired Cheap Thrills to perform at my dads 70th surprise party.
Booking them was easy and they answered all my questions in a timely manner. They were professional and very talented.
The put on an amazing show and had everyone up dancing all night. Received so many compliments about them after the show.
Will definitely use then again for future events."
The Enablers/ Hammer Tones
"I saw the Hammer Tones in Brantford, 3 songs in and I was convinced that we had to have them play at our car show in Hamilton. They showed up and did not disappoint !!!!! What a great mix of songs as they covered many genres which satisfied our many age groups.The day was extremely hot and the band did not miss a beat - they pushed through like the professionals they are. The reviews from the hundreds of people at the car show were phenomenal. Although we do change our band selection each year, we will definitely ask the Hammer Tones to return in the near future. Great job guys !!!"

Thank you so much for making the event so perfect for everyone."
