    One of the best shows I’ve ever been to

    by Christina on 7/27/22The Masquerade - Purgatory - Atlanta

    This was honestly an amazing show. I had never heard of the opening act, Sumo Cyco, before, but now I’m a huge fan. They were great performers and really got involved with the crowd. Icon for Hire blew the roof off. They were awesome live, got the audience involved, and really made my night. The venue was small but perfect for the intimate crowd. Overall it was the best show I’ve ever seen.

    UNFORGETTABLE

    by E. K. on 11/11/19

    One of the most amazing concerts EVER! It was so close and personal. Icon for Hire talked and joked with the crowd, performed amazingly. It was the best night of my life. I was so sad to leave once it was all over. I will forever love them!

    Icon for Hire awesome show

    by Littlered500 on 4/5/18The Masquerade - Atlanta

    I love seeing Icon for Hire perform, the band really knows how to give a good show. Their connection with the audience is beautiful, you can tell they enjoy what they do. The only thing I did not like was the venue.

    Ariel gives an incredible, heartfelt show. Her music will always be inspiring and her Turn Your Pain Into Art journey might actually help me fix myself. Shawn, of course, had an epic guitar solo and pretty much rocked the whole time. Kickass drummer and an overall killer performance. Only complaint would be that it had to end

    High energy and great location!

    by ToxicRainbows on 3/23/18The Foundry - Philadelphia

    First time being at The Foundry and the feel of the place is cozy and comfortable. Also my first time seeing Icon For Hire (and the opening band, Makeout). Both had insanely high energy and stage presence.

    Great Experience

    by OrangeVette on 3/23/18The Club at Stage AE - Pittsburgh

    We went to see the band Icon for Hire and had an awesome experience. The opening band was a local Pittsburgh band called Young Lungs and they were every bit as good as the premier band. We met them after their opening show and they all signed their CD's for us. The bartenders were efficient and friendly. The beer selection was good and the prices were very reasonable as compared to other Pittsburgh venues.

    My daughter had the time of her life !

    by Dano2206 on 3/23/18The Foundry - Philadelphia

    I took my daughter and her friend to see Icon for Hire at The Foundry .. It was amazing, and she had the time of her life ! The venue is small and comfortable , and the perfect place for a concert .. The opening act Makeout was great, and the band members came out and socialized after the show .. Icon was great, and my daughter has memories now she will never forget .. I highly recommend this !

    Terrible

    by Ghhsegn on 3/21/18The Club at Stage AE - Pittsburgh

    The two opening bands weren’t there so they used a local band, and the main band put on a less than mediocre performance.

    Completely amazing!!!

    by Annettemm on 3/18/18A and R Music Bar - Columbus

    Icon for Hire is an amazing band and they are even better live!! Ariel has an energy that is just infectious and the whole experience is well worth any price! The venue was small, standing only, but very intimate and it was well set up. I would certainly jump at the opportunity to go again!!!!

    This was my first real concert and I was blown away by one of my favorite bands. Venue was super cool and clean. Atmosphere was great. 10/10 would recommend both venue and band.

    Icon For Hire puts on a great show!

    by Mokocchi on 2/18/18The Bronze Peacock at House of Blues Houston - Houston

    The opening act (Makeout) wasn't really my cup of tea but Icon For Hire did every song I was hoping for, Ariel even read a bit of her book to us and then covered 21 Pilots. We got not just one, but two encore songs too! Merch was decently priced, and we got to meet the band members without VIP by just waiting around. Free autographs too!

    Icon For Hire killed it!

    by kraber on 6/4/17The Bronze Peacock at House of Blues Houston - Houston

    I've been listening to Icon for Hire songs on YouTube for many months now and wanted to see them live while they were in town. The show was incredible. The energy was there and the music matched what they had recorded. Their stage presence was fantastic and I would definitely enjoy seeing them again live!

    I Love you guys.

    by DocDeadRecords on 10/23/16Aftershock - Merriam

    Sometimes words aren't necessarily or applicable for something. But; Shawn and Ariel Rocked me Sox! Duh right! I also would like to say that they've worked so darn hard to get to where they are today! Pretty awesome.

    Great show! Ariel is beautiful and a great singer. She even did a cover of the win, win, win song. Surprising she raps so well. She and the band are awesome and sweet. They took pictures with everybody who stayed after the show!!
