Awesome experience!

Absinthe was a pleasure to work with. Very professional, showed up and set up on time and provided great entertainment for our guests. The setlist was spot on for a 80's 90's rock cover band. Solid musicians with top notch equipment, great quality sound. Would hire again in a heartbeat.

What to expect

Here are a few comments we have recently received:

I feel like we hit the jackpot with Absinthe. They came to the site of the party (which was in the northwest suburbs, while they live in the southern suburbs) and set everything up the evening before the gig. I was happy to see them take the party as seriously as we did! The party was for over 100 adults with disabilities, and they were such a hit...and thankfully super patient with a few over-enthusiastic party-goers. I can't say enough good things about this group of people - the music was lively and fun, the lights brought fun to the stage, and they enjoyed themselves almost as much, I think, as the party-goers. Highly recommend this bunch. -Jennifer G, Niles, IL

The band was excellent at communicating. They were great from start to finish, and they were so professional! The volume was perfect and people loved them at our event. They even dressed up in 80's clothes for our 80's themed party. It was such a nice detail and people really took notice. Chuck was our main point of contact and I have nothing but great things to say about him. They did a fantastic job and are so talented! Thank you! -Amanda S, Naperville, IL

I can't put into words how awesome Absinthe was! They were beyond helpful, accommodating, professional and last but not least- talented!! I loved their set list and they rocked it! Everyone had a blast and I couldn't be more than happy with them. I plan on going to their future events to see them play again, they were that good! An amazing time was had by all! It's nerve-wracking hiring a band you've never seen before but I'm so glad I did! Can't say enough good things about them! Hire them! You won't be disappointed! -Hilary J, Romeoville, IL

A great band! Played a great variety and was able to sing those great songs that require a female singer. It was great hearing Madonna and Blondie! Very professional and even dressed up with their great '80s hair. They also had a great mix of songs that everyone can enjoy and sing along with. -Cassie T, Wilmington, IL

Great band. Made our event awesome -Sarah T, Lisle, IL

They were great, and we would hire them again no problem. A group of very talented and professional musicians! They came at a great price, well worth every penny. We even paid them extra to stay longer because all of our party guests enjoyed them so much. -Darron C, Lake Village, IN

They did a great job! -Chuck S, Monee, IL

They were great!! Will definitely higher them again! -Charese C, Downers Grove, IL

Absinthe was a great choice for our party! They have a good playlist and are personable and talented musicians. We loved them! -Denise O, Manteno, IL

The band was awesome! They were very responsive to all my requests (and I had a lot) and were so easy to work with. We all loved the selection of the songs and made my husband's 50th birthday so much more memorable. Definitely recommend them. Thank you. -Rana H, Lincolnshire, IL
