Thinking about hiring CROSSROADS for your big event? Here is what some of our amazing clients and fans have had to say about us over the years.

January 27, 2019

I was out with friends at The East 40th Pub on Friday night and there was a band playing called Crossroads. They played great music from generations past and took the audience and me into a time machine. They evoked many fond memories: one song that touched me very deeply was the song Spirit In The Sky, a timeless classic, and many other great songs were enjoyed by all. Crossroads has a lot of fun, positive energy and it was a very exciting evening! You can't go wrong checking out this band. I will be seeing them whenever I can.

Just a quick note to say how much we appreciated your music at The Turnbull Reunion. I was much impressed at how well you balanced your sound and the excellent selection of material. I would readily recommend you to anyone who might ask. Keep up the good work.

I am so grateful that we were able to book The Crossroads Band for our Canadian 150th Celebration in Wimborne, Ab. They are a group of wonderful musicians and all the great oldies that they played kept the dance floor rocking!!! We got to meet and talk to them and they are such great people. They fit right in with our little community. They are so pleasant and easygoing, just a super band. I recommend them to anyone who is in search of a real down to earth band, who cares greatly about their audience! Thank you, Crossroads Band for being part of our celebration!

​​To whom it may concern ,
We are a group of women that put on a provincial convention for 165 people and we were delighted to have The Crossroads Band play at our dance on Saturday May 14th, 2016.
They came to the venue on Sat afternoon to set up for the night and even had a sound man there to check everything...this took approximately 2 hrs . They were back to play at the requested time and ready to go, and with their first song they had people up on the floor dancing and that continued right until the last song of the evening .

They had a varied play list that pleased everyone, everything from Shania Twain to ZZ Top and Elvis ...the crowd was not only dancing but singing along . Everyone told us it was a fantastic evening and how terrific the Crossroads were .
Kathy and the band are very professional and all skilled musicians, vocalists and entertainers.  I highly recommend The Crossroads and I think if we asked each person at the convention you would get the same reply " FABULOUS Band "

​​​​​​​​​​CROSSROADS BAND - AGRICULTURAL SERVICE BOARD CONFERENCE - EDMONTON

We hired The Crossroads Band to play our banquet at the 2022 Agricultural Service Board Conference. Even though the event was during the pandemic, Crossroads did a fantastic job of entertaining and providing some fun and relief from the world we have been in the past 2 years. Kathy was great to work with through the entire process: start to finish!

Crossroads is a very talented band, very professional and simply a great group of people! I would definitely recommend hiring Crossroads for your next event.

I came looking for another band named Crossroads (from way back when I visited from the UK in 2001) but happened upon these folks instead! What a friendly bunch they are too. Great music as well :-)

Saw Crossroads at East 40th pub last Friday. Great band, high energy and sure knows how to play to the crowd. My group enjoyed singing along to the country and classic rock music. It was great to see people get up and dance too! So if you're looking for a great group to hire for an event, this is it!

             70th birthday party in Elbow, Saskatchewan July 13, 2024

A huge thank you to Kathy and The Crossroads band. The band played with great energy and enthusiasm to make my wife’s birthday party a great success. They were extremely easy to deal with from the first time I contacted them until they finished up at the party, willingly adapting to help us with the program. They played songs familiar to everyone and we enjoyed the music very much. I would highly recommend them for any event or function for which you would be looking for a cover band.

Hi Kathy, 

Everyone had a great time and you guys kept the dance floor PACKED!!! With over 200 guests at the Halloween Cabaret, your playlist had something for everyone. Throughout the night I kept hearing "This band is GREAT, where did you find them?" We will definitely book you again in the future!

Crossroads played at a private function that I was invited to attend. The band was fantastic with a great mix of country (old & new) & classic rock. Everyone that attended said that they really enjoyed themselves.

To Whom It May Concern 

We at the MS Society, Central Alberta Chapter, are especially grateful to Kathy Drok and Crossroads for generously supporting the Enerflex MS Walk, Red Deer, over the past 4 years!
Kathy approached our office in 2009 about getting involved as a musician, and since then, she and the band Crossroads (formerly known as The Pickups) have been volunteering their time and upbeat musical entertainment each year at this major fundraising event.  Despite their individual busy schedules, the Crossroads band members encourage us over and over again by believing in our cause and making themselves and their talents available.  The MS Walk is always on a Sunday, which is most people’s precious day off.  That doesn’t stop them.  They lift us up with their enthusiasm and their great tunes! 

Right across Canada each spring, communities like Red Deer join a common cause – the MS Walk – where families, friends and colleagues come together at a festival-like event to support people living with multiple sclerosis and to raise funds.

Proceeds from the Enerflex MS Walk support vital programs and services for people with MS right here in our Central Alberta Chapter area and fund research into the cause, treatment and cure of this unpredictable disease. 

With the very practical support of community-minded groups like Crossroads, we are able to provide a premiere fundraising event for our clients, their families and friends.  We believe that, together, we will end MS!
