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 !" Based in Woodstock, Ontario (84 miles from Sarnia) Marie - The Bunker in Stratford ! Photo of Rumours Rumours "This was my first time to check out Rumours but certainly not my last. What a talented and audience connecting group you are! Thank you for such a great time of great music with great people!" Based in Sandusky, Ohio, United States (107 miles from Sarnia) Therese Marie Avon Lake, The Barn Photo of the Pepper Shakers the Pepper Shakers "My go-to 3-piece cover band in the Toronto area. I have had the pleasure of working with Hank and the guys on several occasions dating back to 2014 - the Pepper Shakers never disappoint." Based in Toronto, Ontario (158 miles from Sarnia) Richard Cheeseman - event planner Photo of Dom Mar KZ Dom Mar KZ "An unbelievable night of spectacular live music in benefit of Montage Support Services was presented to all in attendance on this brisk fall night at the Vaughan City Playhouse Theatre courtesy of multi-talented Instrumentalist Dom Mar KZ, who was backed up by the mind-blowing Shining Star Band. Having been a fan of Dom’s work for the past 32 years, saying that I was looking forward to seeing this show was an understatement. I certainly wasn’t disappointed. Having seen Dom evolve from being the hard rocking Bassist of Graffiti Knox who made his professional debut in 1991 at Toronto’s legendary (yet sadly defunct) Rock ‘N’ Roll Heaven (along with his now Brother-In-Law and one of the Shining Star Band’s Guitarists - Lu Cachie) to becoming one of the most extraordinary and respected Musicians in Canada today was guided by a pre-determined fate. And his fan base across the Globe continues to increase via exposure through International Radio and Online Publications. Besides his Brother-In-Law, Dom was also joined on stage by his son Joe Marchese (Keyboards), Nephews (who also happen to be Lu’s Sons!) Andrew DeVita (Drums) / Carmen Cachie (Guitar), Eugene V (Bass), Daniel Monte (Violin), Piero Nunziata (Guitar), and Enrico Galante (Saxophone). This assembly of exquisite talent was enhanced even further with the Meta Centre Performers, followed by Prado and Juno Award Winner Liberty Silver, who mesmerized the audience and shook this Writer to his core with their stunning presence and vocal prowess. Some of the many stellar (pun intended) tracks churned out included “Destiny” , “In Through The Fire” , “Need A Favour” , “My Lady”, and “War” . Combined with a mesmerizing visual background comprised of photographs and memories from significant periods in Dom’s life, the mentioned songs combined with others included in the Shining Star Band’s set were taken to a deeper level as the Audience came to know and forge an even stronger bond with the Artist via the undeniable magic of music. I genuinely hope that this will be the first of many more performances to come from Dom Mar KZ and The Shining Star Band as their chemistry and passion tore the Vaughan City Playhouse Theatre’s roof off. Mega thanks to Laura Tonelli of Let Signature Events for her hospitality and months of hard work in making this successful concert in aid of an excellent charitable cause a reality!" Based in Toronto, Ontario (158 miles from Sarnia) Concert - Mark St. John Photo of Fusion est 1981 Fusion est 1981 "Amazing talent and loved having these guys play at Rumors Nite Club in Urbana back in the 90’s. Can’t wait to see them together again!!!" Based in Columbus, Ohio, United States (211 miles from Sarnia) Mark Muirhead - Venue Owner

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for rock bands ranges from $230 to $4,750+, with an average of $1,250.

Standard performance times for rock bands are two to three hours, typically split into sets with breaks. Rock performances tend to be louder and more energetic than other genres, so it is worth confirming volume levels and any venue restrictions when making an enquiry.

Most rock bands are experienced at adjusting their volume to suit different settings. Many carry equipment that allows them to control sound levels without losing energy. It is a good idea to discuss any venue noise restrictions with the band before booking.
