WOW

The band makes or breaks the events. And these guys did not disappoint! They brought all the equipment and were flexible with us when we wanted to interrupt them for announcements. Most importantly, they looked like they were having a great time and enjoyed what they were doing. So even if they were bad, you didn't notice - but they weren't! They were great! Played a mix of their songs, songs people knew... Oh it was a fabulous time! 10/10 recommend.

Amazing Performance!

What an amazing performance by The Adam Johnston Band! We hired them for my husband’s 40th birthday party at our home, and they really were the standout of the event! They are crazy talented and have a super fun energy. We gave Adam a list of songs several weeks before the event and he nailed all of them! We even had some guests commenting that they sounded better than the original artist! The only minor issue we had was with miscommunication about timing (set-up and start time). It wasn’t really a big deal because of the casual nature of our event, but if you had a set schedule, I would make sure that your instructions were made very clear and in writing so that there is no mixups. With the exception of this, we had a great experience with Adam. He’s the real deal!!

Adam was do great at communicating before my event and always responded very quickly to any questions I had. Adam entertained my guests and sang beautifully during the ceremony. My fiancé/husband liked Adam so much, he wanted information on Adam’s future gigs.

Talented and Versatile

I searched for weeks to find the perfect band for our event. I scoured the internet for cover bands and finally came across Adam's band. I watched videos of Adam and chatted with him on the phone where he assured me that they would be able to do anything we wanted. He was right!
The event was chilled out with age ranges from 18-80. They did an excellent job of appealing to every age group and mixing it up at the same time. However, the best part was at the end, when the older crowd had left and the band could let loose a little bit. They were so incredible that we asked them to stay for 3 additional hours to jam out and go with it.
I would most definitely recommend Adam and his band for any event as they are not only extremely talented musicians, but also have such great attitudes and are a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to the next time!

About

Adam Johnston, born April 20th, 1990, is a guitarist who’s sound is heavily influenced by iconic bands from the 60’s movement like Jimi Hendrix , The Who, Sly & the Family Stone, The Grateful Dead, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd , and many more. His roots began in Blues, Rock, Funk, and Soul music, ripping his licks from guitar gods such as Stevie Ray Vaughn, Clapton, & Hendrix. He spent years ‘cutting his teeth’ covering songs by the likes of Stevie Wonder, Marvin Gaye, The Isley Brothers, The Meters, Jim Hendrix's Band of Gypsies, The Beatles, Led Zeppelin and many more before forging his own distinct sound. His original music has evolved to embrace the sound of modern Funk, Disco, Jazz, Progressive Rock, and EDM. Its driven by heavy bass, pocket drums, gritty synths/organs, soulful vocals & soaring guitar riffs that deliver the full spectrum of sound. Pumping out infectious dance grooves mixed tastefully with ear-candy covers for an experience that unites both Musicians and Music Lovers alike.
