The Ballroom Thieves Tickets

I bought tickets for my daughter and friend (they just graduated college) and decided to also go. Hadn’t really thought that much about the show till the day of the event. I bought the premium seating (which allowed us seating in the 1st 3 rows) Actually 5 of us, 2 I’m 1st row, 3 in 2nd row, on purpose. It felt like we were VIP’s for the best show ever. I am only hopeful I get the chance to see them again sooner than later. Amazing show, was blown away by the cello , guitar, and mostly their voices which were perfect together. I will recommend this show to everyone I know, and cannot wait to see them again. I am pretty sure I will never see them that close and personal again but really hope I can be in the same room again one day. Respectfully, C.Good

they’re so good EVERY.SINGLE.TIME. I can’t get enough of The Ballroom Thieves!!

They have evolved quite a bit since I last saw them (2019). A little more stage-managed than I recall, but I enjoyed their antics and their music is just as great as always.

The Ballroom thieves simply killed it .. They play hard and have a blast doing so They mix old and new songs beautifully and as a group are so tight ... I told someone that the Martin, Calin and Devin's harmony's are so good you would think they were siblings One of the best shows I have seen in ages

Seen them many times before, one of my favorite bands and they are excellent live.

This show was incredible! They were accompanied by the Maine Youth Rock Orchestra, which was a special treat. Very intimate venue at the Port City Music Hall.

So excited for Ballroom Thieves. Didn't know they were playing WITH the orchestra the entire time. I was not aware that this was a fundraiser/silent auction for the orchestra. Thieves played only songs from new album--no favorites. Their amazing harmonies were drowned out practically by orchestra. And it was incredibly short. Couldn't believe it was over after 7 songs. So disappointed.

Ballroom Thieves stole the show!! Great Event - I'll definitely be seeing these guys again.

The Ballroom Thieves have an excellent live show!!

The Ballroom Thieves packed the house at Great Scott both Friday & Saturday. I was fortunate to be at the Friday night show. The Thieves never disappoint. You can't pigeonhole this band into just the folk rock category. Their music straddles the boundaries of rock and blues with some lyrical ballads thrown in for good measure. Their sound is immense for a three piece band and they make the most of the three voices with beautiful harmonies their hallmark. This was the 7th time I've seen the band perform live--and I infact discovered them for the first time at this very venue three years ago. I've been a firm fan ever since. Callie Peters joined the band two years ago and I think she was a fantastic add. I really enjoy her performance of "Bury me Smiling." I heard her sing it the first time at the "Folk the Cold" show in February at The Sinclair. I enjoyed it even more in this intimate setting. She has the most beautiful lilting voice that is redolent to a Patsy Cline or a Norah Jones. I'd like to see the band feature her more on lead vocals. Martin Early is amazing as lead vocalist/guitarist. He has a passionate voice that is perfect for the emotional content of his lyrics. I only wish that he would engage with the crowd more rather than appearing so introverted. The percussionist and supporting vocals from Devin Mauch are always fantastic and so perfectly complement the voices of Martin and Callie that this trio seems to have been made to sing together. I highly recommend their new album and suggest you catch them live if you get the opportunity. I'd have given this show 5 stars if not for the band that preceeded them on the bill. They were horrible. Friends of the Thieves called "Longtime" took the stage before the Thieves. I can't describe their music because I would not even call it music. It was loud and it hurt everyone's ears. It was difficult in the small space to find a place to move to to escape the pain it caused. They are the perfect example of why you do not have friends open for you. They aren't always good. It was completely the wrong opener for fans of beautiful harmonizing melodic music. The best I can say is that the bass player was good, even if the music played was monotonous, and the lead singer is not a bad guitar player--but he should never be the front man of a band. Martin from the Thieves said that this band has only been playing together for 6 months--and I defintely believe that. They've got a long way to go if they are going to be a band anyone wants to see on purpose. I frankly will avoid any show that has them on the bill. Longtime was sandwiched in between the Thieves and a solo acoustic perfromance from Haunt the House's singer Will Houlihan. Will was a quiet and unassuming countenance on stage. He has the MOST beautiful voice. And he has the whistling skills of a songbird. Haunt the House, which hails from Charleston, RI, will be playing at Newport Folk Festival and is well worth hearing. Having "Longtime's" disonnance featured between two beautiful sounding peformances really was a poor fit. Longtime must have a really strong friendship with the band to have been afforded this position which was so undeserved in this listeners opinion. While I applaud the Thieves loyalty to a friend, they did the audience no favors to subject us to them.
