Talented, fun, and professional You won't be disappointed!

Colorado Switchgrass performed at the Cedaredge Main Street Farmers Market, and we were very thankful to have them as part of our event. Their music brought wonderful energy to Main Street. In addition to being talented musicians, Colorado Switchgrass was professional, dependable, and a pleasure to work with.

I would gladly recommend Colorado Switchgrass to anyone looking for talented, fun, professional, and engaging live entertainment. We appreciate their participation in the Cedaredge Main Street Farmers Market and would be happy to welcome them back for future events.

Thank you, Al and Connie, of Colorado Switchgrass for your excellent performance!
