June 1, 2026Professional as it gets. Sounded like a million bucks.
Brain Waves Audio ran our sound at Canton Pickle Fest on May 30 and the bands were impressed, the crowd was grooving and it was so clean and just lovely. Wonderful, will never use another sound guy. He has me wanting to throw a music festival next time. Thanks for the hard work.

Thank you, Sarah! We had a great time at Canton Pickle Fest and are thrilled that both the bands and attendees enjoyed the sound. It was a pleasure working with you, and we truly appreciate the kind words. We'd be happy to help with any future events or festivals you have planned!

July 14, 202610 - Piece Blues Brothers Tribute Band
Ben and Natashia provided complete sound requirements for our Blues Brothers tribute band - The Soul Men.
We perform all over the country and have worked with sound company’s of all shapes and sizes, and Brain Waves Audio can go toe to toe with any of them.
From set up to tear down they took care of all of our audio needs.
Firestone Farms has a weekly summer concert series and several of the guests came up to me afterwards and commented how clean and crisp the audio was.
I couldn't believe how much equipment they brought out for our show for the rate they charged us.
When our travels bring us back to Eastern Ohio or Western PA we will keep Brain Waves Audio in our thoughts.

Thanks so much for the great review! We had a great time working with you guys, and we're really glad everything turned out the way you hoped. It means a lot to hear that both the band and the audience noticed the quality of the sound.
We really appreciate the recommendation and look forward to the call the next time you're back in the area.
