April 4, 2026Family Reunion
We hired STYLUS DOWN to play our family reunion at Trinity resort outside of Mountainhome. They went all out to make sure that they had the right gear lights and production for our event and their performance was out of this world and had us all dancing, partying, and singing along! We’re definitely planning on having them back next year!
Hired as: Cover Band, Party Band, Top 40 Band

March 19, 2026What a show!
If you’re looking for a band that doesn’t just play a show but turns it into a full-on experience, Stylus Down is it! From the moment they hit the stage, the energy is contagious…you don’t just watch, you get pulled in! The crowd feeds off the band, and the band throws it right back, turning the whole night into a high-energy, singalong, dance-it-out kind of party!!
What really sets them apart is the musicianship. These guys are tight, polished, and clearly love what they do. The rhythm section hits hard, the guitars are dynamic, and the vocals are powerful and engaging. Add in their natural stage presence and ability to read a room, and you’ve got a band that knows how to keep things fun, flowing, and unforgettable from start to finish! We can’t wait to have them back next year!

Influences and inspiration
Soooo many amazing influences have been a part of this band's journey. We all have so many various backgrounds with music! I love all kinds of music as the lead vocalist, however, this band kind of takes a bit of a departure from the traditional songs you'd think a girl needs to sing! I prefer to choose songs in my wide vocal range, however I also love the 70's era, think of Led Zeppelin, Cream Beatle’s, Eagles, then add some big hair from the 80's, Guns and Roses, Van Halen, Foreigner, Journey, Blondie, Pat Benatar, Joan Jet, and even some British Invasion, Tears for Fears, The Outfield etc.. and then you hit the 90's and think of Radiohead, STP and Chris Cornell! We do a little bit of everything including some country with Miranda Lambert and Carrie Underwood and some harder edge rock as well with Foo Fighters, Ozzy Ozborne, and A in C along with Offspring! Throughout any of our performances, we are aware of the audience mostly. What does your crowd want to hear!? We cater to that for each and every show!
Setup requirements
We have all the equipment we need to perform any live local performance! We just need a place to set up, plug in, and play!
