Colin Harder - Sach's Tee House, Johnson City, NY
One of the best bands in town! Had them a Sachs' multiple times this summer and it's a hit every time. We enjoy the variety of music that everyone can get along to. Looking forward to having them play more in the future.

We hired 5th Gear Overdrive with a bit of hesitation because it wasn’t our “Normal” kind of music we hire, but boy are we glad we did. The music is awesome, but it isn’t the best part. These guys are one of the most respectable bands we have hired. One out of two bands that i actually gotten a call from my staff to tell me how much they appreciated them. After the first show we just knew that this was going to be one of our regular bands. And another bonus, they DO BRING A CROWD! Every time they’ve played, we’ve had incredible numbers for the night. This band is a breath of fresh air to the 607 Music Scene!

I have worked with 5th Gear Overdrive on several occasions at events throughout the area and I cannot say enough about the band. Not only do they sound great and have a wide range of music in their repertoire, but even more important in my book, they are consummate professionals. I have worked with enough "diva" bands to know these guys are not that at all. An absolute pleasure to work with each and every time. If you have the chance to see these guys play or you have a chance to hire them for your event, do not hesitate. Just do it. You will not regret it!
Maybe YOU
We look forward to hearing what you think about the band!!
