BlueStone Ivory is the perfect party/dance band for your local establishment, church festival, wedding, community concert, wedding reception, corporate event, fundraiser, or private party. BlueStone Ivory features five vocalists, and a three-piece horn section.  Based in Cincinnati, Ohio, BlueStone Ivory is one of the last remaining, truly “classic-style” rock-and-roll horn bands still in existence today. 

The horn-driven sounds of BlueStone Ivory rocked the Tri-state area from 1969 till 1976.  The band was resurrected for a 30 year High School reunion in 1999. Four decades and two Cammy Awards later almost everywhere BSI performs, someone relates that our band played their prom or they remember us playing at Alexander’s in Clifton in the 1970s. BlueStone Ivorys’ musical style and inspiration is derived from the great horn bands such as: Chicago, Tower of Power, Earth Wind & Fire; The Memphis Horns, Blood Sweat & Tears, The Blues Brothers and others.   

We invite you to come and rock with us as we play the great songs from the 60’s and 70’s.

For a full performance schedule look them up on our show calendar.

Testimonials from some of our fans.

The concert last night at Keehner Park was FANTASTIC!  What talented musicians!  Yes I am a fan; have seen you many times over the years!  Even the Coney Island Dances with of course JD Hughes introducing your band!  I want to thank for continuing to honor the service men and women and all the rescue personnel etc.  What a beautiful moment at your concerts! You can see the smile on their faces when you acknowledge them, especially the Vets.  Thank you!

Enjoy when you and other band members come into the audience.  And Rusty’s solo!  Wow!  

Great job to all your band members!

Thank you for all the great music over the years!

Linda Smith

“Just a note of Thanks.  We really enjoyed Blue Stone Ivory’s show at Jim and Jacks on the River this past weekend.  This is the first time we’ve got to see you and the group live (I’ve heard several recordings from your shows but never seemed to get the chance to come out and see you) and our party really had a good time.  Not only did the band sound great and played excellent songs, Blue Stone Ivory was very professional and entertaining! Having seen and heard many national groups live you impressed us – you guys are up there with the best!  No BS – Great sound! We’ll be back again! — Jerry Welch / Marketing Consultant

From One of Our Fans

Here is to a GREAT band! On July 11, 2015, we were fortunate to have your band as our wedding band. What a blowout!! Our guests, who came from all over the country were simply amazed at your performance and the fun they had. You “made” our wedding a huge success and no words can ever show our thanks enough for all your efforts. ANYONE who wants to have “the best damn band in the land” perform at their function would be fortunate indeed to book you for their next event. Here is wishing all the gang many more years of happiness and success.

Sincerely, Emmet and Pat Winslow
