The Sons of the American Legion squad 980 Plum would like to thank the Bill Ali Band for helping make our award and charity banquet a huge success. What a talented, professional group of men who brought down the house in Plum. Meeting with the group before the event helped them create a playlist that kept our crowd dancing all night. Thanks again guys for helping out our veterans. you guys rock!
Classic Rock Band
Response from The Bill Ali Band:
Thank you Jim, we all had a great time and we hope to hear from you again for any other event that the Legion might have!
We hired the Bill Ali Band to play at our company Christmas party. It was a stab in the dark, as they contacted me when another band I had requested from the site responded that they were unavailable. After checking out their website, which includes clips of their performances, and reading some other reviews, we decided to go with them.
We are so glad we did, they did not disappoint! The entire band was extremely friendly, professional, and FUN! They are super talented and played a great selection of songs. They even let one of our employees play the harmonica with the band!
I highly recommend this band, and will definitely contact them again for future gigs. Thanks guys!
Response from The Bill Ali Band:
Thank you Alicia for those kind words, we enjoyed ourselves as well and look forward to working with you again!

About
Longevity might be an understatement to explain the life of one of Pittsburgh’s oldest performing rock legends. For over a period of Forty Four years Mr. Bill Ali (pronounced Bill AL-EYE) has been capturing the hearts and souls of many unsuspecting nightclub owners and fans! Former front man of the ever popular Toast Band one of Pittsburgh’s longest running great rock bands for over 36 years has switched styles just a tiny bit, going from a hard hitting Marshall Stack, Gibson Les Paul toting, in your face type of rocker performing songs from such artists as Megadeath, Danzig, and Judas Priest to a more refined in your face acoustic guitar slamming classic rocker performing cover songs from the 60’s 70’s, and 80’s from artists such as Marshall Tucker, C.C.R, Ted Nugent, Pure Prairie League, and to top things off just a taste of country with Johnny Cash. Teamed up with Matt Barranti vocals/ electric guitar one of only ten guitarists in the entire U.S.A to be invited to perform at The Sliders Ball in Macon Georgia, Matt’s work on the bottle neck is a sight to be seen and heard! George Harris percussion/drums/vocals, George is a former member of Gass House Annie, George has performed all over the country and adds the spice of life to the band with his unique talents. Tom (Huck) Huchel Bass Guitar/Vocals Huck started in the music business at the age of 10. Self-taught, Huck has mastered the trumpet, guitar, piano, and bass guitar, Huck's solid thump contributes to the unique sound the band has developed. These four men have combined to form The Bill Ali Band Pittsburgh’s Premier Classic Rock Cover band.
