ITHIKA plays by their own rules when it comes to their music, not following any standards, yet setting them along the way. ITHIKA is one of the first local rock acts to blend new rock with great classic rock such as Van Halen, Billy Idol, Ozzy and others. They also play a steady rotation of the hottest venues in their area, some of these clubs include, W.O. Wrights in Beavercreek, Dark Horse Tavern in Miamisburg and Wing's in Vandalia. ITHIKA has also been a mainstay at some of Dayton's biggest live event's which include, XFEST 2007, WTUE's 2005 & 2006 St. Patrocks Day at Flanagan's and the 2005, 2006 and 2013 HauntFest/Boo & Brew In the Oregon District, playing infront of thousands at those shows. In January of 2007 ITHIKA acquired not one but two major beer sponsorships from Miller Light and Corona through Fisher and Bonbright distributing in Dayton and Springfield. ITHIKA's future goals are to expand venues of playing throughout Ohio and the Midwest and capture the attention of many eager fans that have been waiting for the vibe, sound, and soul, they provide live.
We are a seasoned professional band that work with some of the best sound and lighting engineers in the area to provide an excellent audio visual experience for our audience. We treat all of our fans, clients and personnel professionally and courteously.
In most cases we will work with our own sound and light professionals to provide the best musical experience for our fans and clients.
