Last Friday at Russell’s, Electric Avenue took the crowd back to the 70’s playing disco favorites “Brickhouse" by Commodores and “Shake Your Booty” by KC and the Sunshine Band. Always keeping the audience guessing, they dedicated “Brown-eyed Girl” by Van Morrison to the ladies and in a surprise turn of events, threw in Nelly’s “Hot in Here!”
"They play great songs to dance to.
I love how they play different genres!"
-Miranda from OKC
Their act was enhanced by their awesome light show, flashing bright disco lights to give add to the Electronic Avenue persona. Some of their other projects they are involved with include Hollywood Squares and Nite Fever.
The guys of the band focus on providing fun entertainment for their audience, while having fun doing it, no matter where they play. It’s a philosophy that shows at every performance! Electric Avenue plays regularly at Dan O’Brien’s Pub, Russell’s – Marriott, and Riverwind Casino. Be sure to check them out!
Toby Wayne really rocked out Friday night while everyone enjoyed the great food and fun atmosphere. The band opened up with "That's Right Where I Need to Be" by Gary Allan and the crowd never looked back. Toby Keith's I love This Bar & Grill was full of great people who were ready to have fun. 
Being the night before Halloween, costumes were present in the crowd. People were dressed for a night of memories and excitement and I am pretty sure they were not disappointed. Toby Wayne and his band played country hits from "Guitars, Cadillacs" by Yoakam Dwight to "The Dance" by Garth Brooks. "My Girl" by The Temptations was even added to the songlist with some country swing added to it.
During the concert I heard many "yee-haws" and "whoo-hoos!" People were obviously enjoying themselves! It was a great night to enjoy tasty food, great music and a fun atmosphere.
However, Kristen and company proved they could deliver, entertaining and pleasing the crowd with many favorites throughout their multiple sets, spanning across country, pop, blues, and rock genres. Her first set began with “Famous in a Small Town” by Miranda Lambert, followed by “Sounds So Good” by Ashton Shepherd. She continued with an old favorite from Dolly Parton, before changing things up with a few blues tunes, all of which received positive reactions from the audience.
Fellow musician and friend, Matt Bowlin, was at the show and was called up on stage during the second set for a couple of tunes. He had show at Toby Keith’s Bar & Grill in Tulsa the following night. A couple by the name of David & Julie had stopped through on their way back to Colorado from Arkansas and mentioned that “they liked what they heard.”
Before Kristen had started her show, Michelle had a chance to speak with her. Kristen said that “music is what I love to do, and I'm very passionate about it.” It definitely showed in her performance that created a positive chemistry with both her band and the audience.
