Reviews of Rock Bands available in Ohio, United States

5/5 from 743 reviews
Photo of Let It Bleed Let It Bleed "What can I say, what an amazing band! Booked for the celebration of life for my dad who was a massive stones fan and it was better than I could have ever imagined. The sound was great, not gimmicky, just a great band playing the best stones song. 80 guests and everyone said how good they were. One thing that sets the bar high for them is I asked for a song that isn't typically found on a stones set list but holds deep sentiment to myself, with only a weeks notice I didn't think they'd be able to do it....and they did! Such a lovely way to remember my dad....he would have absolutely loved it! Thank you so much guys! P.s. sorry it took so long to write this review!" 9th July 2026 Adrianne Holman - Celebration of life Photo of Cristina Cherry Cristina Cherry "Christina was excellent. Performed an amazing 2 hour set for us and I would say if you love the sound of Amy Winehouse you will love her." 19th July 2026 Evan Brett - Small Dinner Party Photo of Shaun G Shaun G "Shaun is always a professional, on time and eager to please, he did just what i wanted from start/finish time to length and number of sets, his engagement with the audience is amazing even going into the crowd to have a joke with them, Shaun has played at my Bar many time both as a solo and his Band (Mojo Shaker) he always draws a crowd and is becoming increasingly well known which isnt to easy for an Englishman performing in France :D" 21st July 2026 Antoine - Bar Photo of Traffic Jam spectacular Traffic Jam spectacular "Thank you for the amazing evening traffic jam .....❤️" 24th July 2026 Kartik - Private Photo of George and Ringo's 2 Starr Revue George and Ringo's 2 Starr Revue "This show is brilliant.
