The Eli Young Band may have felt like an overnight success when they stormed the country charts with their No. 1 hits "Crazy Girl" and "Even If It Breaks Your Heart" in 2011, but in reality the success was over a decade in the making. The two tracks appear on the band's fourth album, "Life at Best," which climbed to No. 6 on the Billboard 200 and marked a career-high for a band that had never charted above No. 30 on the chart before. In 2013, the group teased their in-the-works fifth album with the new single "Drunk Last Night," and launched a headlining US club tour of the same name. The band got its start when founders Mike Eli and James Young shared a dorm room as freshmen at the University of North Texas. By 2003, they'd added bassist Jon Jones and drummer Chris Thompson to their group and, on the strength of their energetic concerts and countrified melodic rock, began to develop a deep fan base in Texas and the Southwest, sometimes selling a couple of thousand tickets to shows in the region.

The music was awesome and they really knew how to perform for the crowd!
Amazing venue. Amazing artists. Worth going. ......
Bands were good. Not enough ground space for seating. Great sound quality. Great ticket price.
This concert was so much fun. The amount of time in between performances was great and everyone did a wonderful job.
Best concert ever! Jacuzzis and concert what could be better
Went mostly for something to do, but ended up having a good time. Fun band to see live. Great musicians and then did a couple fun covers as well. Would recommend.
So this was my first experience in the Cone Denim EC, I cannot say enough about how great the sound was. That is also one of the best laid our venues around. We did have great seats, but the vibe was so cool there, oh and I did I mention the sound... Now as for EYB - I have seen them about 5 times, everything from an opening act to headlining the state fair, to headlining other venues. I love their music period. All their music, particularly the early days. But at this show, they played not less than 4 cover songs in their set. I mean don't get me wrong, they did a great job with the covers, but they could have played 4 songs from their past - Skeleton's, Small Town Kid, Every Other Memory, heck even groove out on Old Man's Son. Or play another off the new album. Fact is they are a great band with a great sound and they write great songs, there is just simply no need to play anyone else's.
Loved the concert. Got to meet the guys and it was so exciting. Been waiting a long time to see them and they did not fail!
great band, great performance, terrific cozy atmosphere with everyone up close to performers. would go again in a heartbeat.
The show started promptly at 7:00pm and ended promptly at 8:10. The shortest concert I have ever been to. Don’t go to the bathroom. When they played they were really good but wow that’s a quick in and out. For the money I’m gonna need a little more time !
Was not as good as expected. Not sure if it was him cutting away from the mic or some type of malfunction, couldn't hear the words on most of the songs sung very clearly. The one's that were heard clearly were great. However, would very much like to see again.
Nice venue but for the price I fully expected at least a couple hour show. This thing was over in 70 minutes start to finish. I go to a lot of concerts and never been to one with paid admission that was so short. No opener or anything. Disappointing
The show was great. The band sounded awesome and the venue was really small. Only thing, show time was only 1.25 hours. I'm glad we went but not sure I love the ticket price for a 1 hour show.
The first concert, I been to Belterra, great seats and an awesome show!!
Enjoyed hearing some of the new songs as well as their classics!. Really loved the performance and energy of the band members!
Staff including Katlin, Shawn and bartender Tracey made this a special night. Awesome venue with good acoustics and great interior.
I have listed to their music for years but was so disappointed that the classics i planned on listening to were not played. Between my girlfriend and I, we knew 1 song the entire show. It was quite the let down.
Amazing show! So cool meeting the band backstage!!
Civic theatre was a little smaller than usual places I see concerts.. Made for a better experience.. Eli young band put on a great show...Stayed at the Courtyard by Marriott (a great place!!) Akron is improving!! Check it out
