We did a back yard party for 60 people to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. The Hogmires were absolutely wonderful! Great music!!! Not too loud. Not too quiet. They entertained our crowd without dominating. I got so many compliments from our guests. The band came early, set up, played a couple of numbers to warm up, and then the party started! They were friendly and a pleasure to have as part of the celebration. The atmosphere created by their playing was spot on! Perfect 10!! I am so grateful for the spirit they brought to the party! Old school blue grass sound! Thank you Hogmires!!
