Peoria Music Live

Who Are We Missing?

Dexter O'Neal's 50th Birthday Party was the first indoor show I attended for Peoria Music Live and the first time I ever walked into Kenny's Westside Pub. 9/16/17 

I've said time and again that there is an amazing pool of talent in the Peoria area. It wasn't until we sat down to type up a list of the bands who have been promoted on the site that I realized just how many there are.

September 12th will mark the one year date of the page being started... Over 230 different bands have been mentioned in the posts of Peoria Music Live over that year!

Ellie and I have both been through the posts, but with that many bands and artists listed, it would be easy for one to slip by... and I don't want that to happen! We are hoping to use this list for a project and don't want anyone left out.

Can you check it out for us?

If you see a band or solo artist who was left off of this list, please leave a comment so we can make sure to get them added. I hope to finalize this list by the end of the week... so check it out and let me know! It wasn't on purpose! We want you on the list!

These are all bands and artists who have had shows mentioned on our page in the last year.

This band was from Galesburg and didn't reply to my messages back then...  (It's okay, nobody knew who we were or what we were doing yet at that point. It happened a lot.)
Now I can't remember their name... are they on the list?
