The Colonels of Truth are a 6 member high energy bluegrass band out of Seattle. This band wasn’t formed by child hood friends nor was it formed in some magical meeting one night at a bar. Like good whiskey it was distilled over years of playing with many musicians at various jams, house parties, and festivals. These are the guys that at 2 am are the ones that think the jam is just getting going. These are the guys that drive 2 hours one way to regularly go to a jam. They took their time slowly gathering like minded individuals under one banner to create the Colonels of Truth. When these guys get on stage you can tell not only are they talented musicians, but they really enjoy making music.
This band was an awesome centerpiece to my husband's 50th birthday party! They are not only excellent musicians, but also very personable and great entertainers. As a special birthday gift, they invited my husband to sing a few numbers with them which everyone really enjoyed. We saw a good number of live bluegrass bands when we lived in Nashville, and these guys would fit right in. We will be looking for them to play around town!

A 5 - 7 piece high energy bluegrass band. We are comfortable either engaging the crowd or just playing as background music. We are happy to dress up or just be casual. We have full sound system we bring and we are happy to setup an extra mic if you need to use the sound system.

They took their time slowly gathering like minded individuals under one banner to create the Colonels of Truth. When these guys get on stage you can tell not only are they talented musicians, but they really enjoy making music together. While these musicians prefer playing bluegrass music, they have highly diverse musical backgrounds from classical, jazz, funk, reggae, Brazilian, and rock and they bring the best of all these styles under one roof, energy of a rock show, precision vocal and instrumental harmonies, off the cuff improvisation, funk and reggae jams. Colonels of Truth play traditional bluegrass standards, appalachian old-timey tunes, obscure newgrass tunes, and original tunes. All of the members are song writers and arrangers, some of them have even won awards in song writing contests, and they bring this creativity to their playing.
We don't require much:
* Power if sound system is needed
* Covered space if any chance of rain. Acoustic instruments and rain don't mix!
