First-Class Band!                         

Honeyshot is a FANTASTIC band. They have a repertoire for all ages and play their collective hearts out! Additionally, they're incredibly professional to deal with before, during and after the show. I love this band and will recommend them whenever possible!

Amazing!! Honeyshot was so great! I was so glad they were willing to start a bit earlier for our reception, rather than having people wait after dinner. Very accomodating!  I was really happy with all the songs they played and I was so happy to start the dancing early. Thank you so much, everyone had a blast!

Job well done! Talented musicians and powerhouse singing by the lead. Nice selection of music from classics to current. Danced a lot, laughed a lot, and was sad when they finished their last set. I would highly recommend this band to anyone. ~ Ellen H. ~ Madison College Centennial Party

Honeyshot playing the Summer Bash concert at Christy’s Landing was the most fun I’ve had dancing to live music in a long time! What a perfect combination of fun, high-energy, talented band and laid back, comfortable venue. The crowd was completely swept up in the moment and everyone had a great time! ~ James E.


We hired Honeyshot for our Island themed wedding reception and they made the party! They were very easy to work with extremely professional. They were willing to work with us on the playlist and even learned some new songs we wanted to hear. We would not hesitate to use them again or recommend them to friends and family. For a fun, talented party band… Honeyshot is it!!!!! ~ Rick and S.H.


Honeyshot played our wedding reception and was wonderful to work with! From planning to customizing their sets with a few of our special songs - they went above and beyond our expectations and went over big with our families. With the wide range of styles there's plenty for everyone to like. We highly recommend them!!


This was my 1st time hiring this band and holy cow!!!! Honeyshot blew me and my friends away! You are the best band we've heard in a long time!!! Def 5 star act!!!! I'm recommending your band to everyone I know!! Keep up the great work and see ya again sooooon!!!!! ~ Christine


Thank you so much for coming up and playing!! You are amazing!!!! Nothing but fantastic things to say about you!!!!


 

Your band put on quite a show and truly helped make the night an awesome time for Renee and I and our guests. We heard sooooooooooo many compliments about the band and the music and energy you created that night. Many a time over the course of the night, I stared in awe and disbelief at the dance floor! We can not thank you enough for all that you did to make the reception memorable and special. The next morning over brunch:  the band, the mix of music, and the fun we all had dancing were the center of conversation! Thank you so much for making the night a wonderful celebration!

This band performed at the Yard Arm in Dubuque Iowa last summer. They were awesome and kept all of us entertained. The 80's classic rock tunes, the singer's excellent voice and charisma combined to make a fun evening. The band is great about mixing with the crowd during breaks, worked hard at their craft, but most of all they seemed genuinely happy to be there and flattered with the response they got from the crowd. I hope they come back!!! I go to many shows from the biggest entertainers to the smallest venues, but this band stands out as a favorite. ~ Kevin S.
