Wayne and the members of GrassStreet were a pleasure to work with for our wedding ceremony! I am so grateful to find a group as easy to work with as them - and their willingness to learn a couple of songs that were so special to my (now) husband and I! Their overall song selection was fantastic!

June 19, 2023GrassStreet is outstanding and their harmonies were spot-on!
GrassStreet is outstanding! Their music was lively and upbeat, and they had everyone tapping their feet and clapping along while engaging the crowd. These musicians are incredibly talented, and their harmonies were spot-on. They played a great mix of classic bluegrass with some newer songs, while mixing in some rock & roll and classic country. If you want to have a great time and listen to some great music, then I highly recommend this band for any event. Thank you, Wayne, for your outstanding communication and thank you GrassStreet for making my dad’s 80th birthday so much fun!

October 16, 2022You won’t regret booking this band!
I don’t know where to start! The band arrived on time, set up and started playing as we discussed. They were very engaging and interactive with the crowd, which made the party super fun! The band also kept the volume at a great level so guests could have a conversation and not have trouble hearing each other talk. I would book Grass street again in a heartbeat. Rave reviews from party guests as well. Seriously, exceeded all my expectations!
