Feedback

  • Hooked On Sonics are not only one of the best live bands in Chicago, but they are the nicest guys you could ever meet. They made my wedding the biggest BASH of our lives and had the entire crowd on their feet the entire time! If you are looking for a band that can rock, funk out, and throw in some pop for good measure, this is YOUR band! Honestly words cannot do these guys justice, check them out live and you will see what i am talking about!! -- Will L, Barrington, IL, 10/31/2009
  • Off the charts these three guys were happy to be there and played like it to. Thanks for a great time Tim Calcagno -- Tim C, Elmhurst, IL, 5/8/2009
