Rick and the band were a pleasure to work with, and we would absolutely have them back again. They worked with us to identify the kind of music we were looking for, and put on a great, high-energy set at our event. I would highly recommend!
Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 24, 2016•From Elmhurst, IL
My husband and I hired The Stingers for our backyard wedding reception. It was a casual event that called for a jam band that would get the guests up and dancing, and The Stingers delivered just that. Their setlist was well developed and kept the party upbeat and singing along. Rick and the rest of the band have a great sound and are extremely talented. What I truly appreciated most it that these guys are in it for the love of the music and nothing else. I cannot recommend them enough for your event, I promise they will not disappoint, and by the end of your experience you will be happy to have made friends with this band.
Thanks again Stingers!

The Stingers fully discussed their performance beforehand, told me what to expect in terms of set-up and site requirements, showed up on time, was very professional in their performance and got the party rocking. All the guests complimented me on the choice of the band and I was asking many times how I found them. So in the end, the Stinger were a great promoters for Gigmasters.

Hired The Stingers classic rock band for my 50th birthday bash. They were amazing and everyone at my party thought they were outstanding! Band leader Rick is super nice, very easy to work with and very accommodating. Perfectly kept the flow of party going strong and everyone danced! I highly recommend The Stingers to others and would hire them again! Peter R.
Anniversary Party•Reviewed on April 12, 2016•From Chicago, IL
This was a 50th Anniversary party and I cannot think of anything that could have made our experience with The Stingers any better. Communications throughout the preparation period were excellent and timely. The talent quality of all the performers, the song list and the extras were fully appreciated by all our guests. We screened 5 different groups and The Stingers were head and shoulders above the others. All special requests were honored without any negative feedback and several of our guests took business cards from the band for consideration for possible future events. If you are thinking of using a classic rock tribute band for your event this is the one.

The Stingers were so great! From the minute I booked them, Rick was super communicative and professional. They came yesterday to perform at our park, only made it about half way through the set, and of course it started raining. I was so bummed not to get to enjoy them longer- really terrific and talented band. I highly recommend them and look forward to having them back (fingers crossed for nicer weather).

Great band -- really rocked our block party! Everybody loved them. Terrific set of music. They worked the crowd, and got the kids involved as well. Plus, they were a pleasure doing business with. Rick was a great communicator. The contract was very fair and straightforward. A great time at a good price! We will definitely be booking them again for next year's party.

After listening and dancing to the music of The Stingers, we hired them to play for our 50th wedding anniversary party at Metropolis Ballroom. Rick was a delight to work with. They offered us an extensive playlist, made suggestions, and totally respected our wishes. When we asked them they could accompany our granddaughter in a vocal, they readily agreed and helped her in doing this. Morgan, the vocalist in the group, brought talent and energy to their performance. They performed like they enjoyed it and gave it their whole heart and soul. The best part is that the music was great, and very danceable. They were a great choice for us.

The Stingers areare awesome! Very professional, but the sound was truly amazing. The addition of Morgan has just raised the band to another level. Ricks riffs, the harmonica, the keyboard, the whole experience had our block party rocking!! Thank you so much for coming out and will definitely have you guys back out soon!!
