Dirty Honey Takes the Stage

Dirty Honey has been making a significant impact in the rock scene, captivating audiences with their blend of modern and classic rock. When they took the stage, the excitement was palpable. The crowd erupted into cheers as singer Marc LaBelle's voice carried above that of the other band mambers: John Notto (guitar), Justin Smolian (bass), and Jays=don Bean (drums), and I could sense the uncontainable thrill. They kicked off the show with fan favorites that highlighted their distinctive sound.

The band’s performance was intense and captivating. With powerful guitar riffs and Marc LaBelle’s dynamic vocals, Dirty Honey generated an energy that spread like wildfire across the audience.

Dirty Honey not only played their music, and a masterful country-esque cover of Honkey Tonk Women, but also engaged with fans, sharing personal stories and expressing gratitude for such a memorable event. The connection they established was heartfelt, making it feel like we were all part of something special.

Support from The Band Feel

Opening for Dirty Honey was The Band Feel, a talented group that brought fresh energy to the night. Their set was a perfect way to warm up the crowd, featuring a distinctive sound which I can only describe as this genertion's take on classic rock. Audiences appreciated their performance so much that I overheard several attendees discussing their favorite songs as they left the venue.
