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.

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!!

I've always been open to new music, and the first time I heard them it was an absolutely mind-blowing moment for me. Musically and vocally their talent is out of this world, and their live show (which I got to see for the first time last night, August 20, 2013 at the Gramercy Theater in New York City) is energetic, and leaves you wanting to see them again... hence why I'm planning a trip to Florida to see them next month. If you're considering seeing them or listening to them or falling in love with them, stop considering and just do it. They're wonderful, and sweet people to boot.

Signed recently by Linkin Park's manager, take notice, they are one the best, fresh, new groups out that deserve a shot at the bigs! With supergirl Ariel on lead vocals ,with her ridiculously awesome voice, (and fashion sense), her lyrics will be enough to blow you away. Most bands can make it on the lead singer alone , but theres more to Icon. Shawn is nothing short of amazing fierce(really, fierce!) on guitar, and Adam on drums is as energetic as a drummer can get! They are simply awesome together and great to see Josh added into the fold, an awesome bassist ! Each performance I've seen is as big and entertaining whether big or small venue. Ariel even had a sinus cold at a small local bar show, but sang it out and left nothing on the table. A totally flawless freshmen debut leaves fans wanting more , so now there's promise of a second cd to keep the party going! As well as an awesome band they all seem very genuine people as well. Shawn just came up to me at a show and started a conversation. Im not anyone special. They are for real , and they keep you wanting MORE!!

Saw them open for P.O.D., Red and Love & Death in May 2012 in Flint, MI. They come out with full force energy, enthusiasm, zeal and excitement. Their positive message and real lyrics will leave you wanting more. They are also humble and down to earth. They'll stop and take a pic and sign autographs for anyone. Great people and musicians. The only reason they don't get 5 stars is that I prefer music a little heavier.
