Hello Rick ( and Cindy, Chris, Levi and Jace! )
Thank you so much for allowing us the honor of playing at the graduation party. We had such a wonderful time. Your hospitality was warm and so was the beautiful venue ;-) We would love to play for you again any time!

Best band for your BBQ! (or any other event!)

I hired LoCo Country for a summer BBQ at our apartment complex. We had a fantastic turnout and people had so much fun. LoCo Country was professional, entertaining and got even the most hesitant to dance. We can't wait to have another party and have them back again.

Additional booking notes

Since we are a 6 piece band we require a little more than the average band, but we can get creative if we have to. Living rooms? No problem! We have our own PA system and usually require about two, 20 amp circuits. We have light and access to more if event demands.
