Last night was the sixth time I’ve seen this group. Every time I catch their show, I leave marveling at their professionalism. I tend to judge tribute bands on how closely they can cover the artist’s work. This is where The Stranger excels. I am so thankful this band shares their talents with we the public. Can’t wait to see them the next time.
A word about the Swanee theater in Kannapolis. Never been there until last night. Great setting. notcrowdedseating!

These guys put on a great show at The Shore Club! We've seen their concerts about five times in the past few years and always come away and pressed. Great vocals and great musicians.

Show was a 10.
It was a great show!!! The experience was amazing. This is the second time I have seen a "Stranger" show. They never let me down! "Billy" left the stage and walked through the crowd singing; and the Sax player did the same. Great interaction with the crowd, who loved the show. The crowd was very energetic. It was a perfect weather night, the venue with the multiple bars means you do not have to wait long in line for your beverage. If the outdoor stage could be enlarged that would help the musicians. The stage was very tight for Face2Face. Also an additional restroom somewhere on the premises would be helpful. Lines were too long for both men's and women's. People stopped drinking because they didn't want to wait 15 + minutes in line. you are losing a lot of revenue.

About The Stranger - A Billy Joel Tribute
THE STRANGER is the complete premiere tribute to the music of one of the world’s most beloved performers, Billy Joel. Comprised of some of the best and most experienced musicians in the business, this 6 piece band brings together an authentic replication of Billy's timeless music, crowning it with soulful, spot on vocals that makes listening to a Billy Joel song so special.
Out front on piano & lead vocals is founder & frontman Mike Santoro. Born and raised in Levittown like Joel himself, Mike not only looks and talks a lot like Billy, but has the piano chops, vocal prowess and stage presence of the Piano Man - so much so that you will soon forget you are watching a tribute show. The STRANGER gives you the Billy Joel experience with the sound of his original band in its prime... energetic, interactive and often unpredictable. Its live entertainment at its best!
