Reviews of Rock Bands available in Connecticut

5/5 from 770 reviews
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 David Sieling - Town Employee Photo of DON MINOTT & High Voltage Reggae Band DON MINOTT & High Voltage Reggae Band "Rating star filled in with goldRating star filled in with goldRating star filled in with goldRating star filled in with goldRating star filled in with gold Terry P. • September 21, 2021 This is a band that is not to be missed!

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.
