Lead singer Marc LaBelle, with his flamboyant outfit and showmanship, reminded many of a young Steven Tyler from Aerosmith. LaBelle’s impressive vocal range and commanding stage presence kept everyone hooked from start to finish.
One of the highlights of Dirty Honey’s performance was their impeccable interaction with the audience. LaBelle engaged the crowd throughout the night, creating a genuine connection. He made references to their newly released album, adding an extra layer of excitement to the show.

The band’s rendition of Prince’s “Let’s Go Crazy,” transformed into a slow funk jam, showcased their versatility and ability to make a classic song their own. The crowd went wild when they performed their cover of the Rolling Stones’ “Honky Tonk Woman.” During the song “Another Last Time,” LaBelle ventured into the crowd, and even onto the bar, creating an electric atmosphere as the audience went wild. “Walking The Wire” emerged as one of the crowd favorites, with its infectious rhythm and powerful lyrics.

As Dirty Honey left the stage, the audience erupted into applause and chants of “Olay, Olay, Olay.” The band returned for a four-song encore, beginning with “Won’t Take Me Alive.” LaBelle engaged the crowd once again, asking if they wanted to hear “Rome” or “Satisfied” for the second song. The audience called for “Satisfied,” but Dirty Honey surprised them with “Rome.”
The energy in the venue reached its peak during “Rolling 7s,” with an incredible drum solo by Jaydon Bean, driving the crowd into a frenzy. The band paused, and the audience clapped and sang “Olay, Olay” once more before Dirty Honey concluded the night with “Satisfied.”
