Wedding Bash

These guys played our wedding and it was a hit, even for the folks who aren't into bluegrass. They took requests on the fly, they played all the songs we wanted to hear, and they had incredible energy and synthesis with the crowd. Brett was super easy to work with before and after the event as well. Would recommend Mountain Time String Band for any event.

Best Railroad concert we could have imagined!

Brett, the organizer, Andy, Steven, Bryan, and Elijah are are wonderfully talented musicians and Aki, the sound engineer all combined to give Colorado Live Steamers a concert we will never forget! The music was fantastic in spite of the rain and cold temperatures. The kept us dancing! Any one needing this Blue Grass group of musicians will have all of their expectations exceeded. I hope we can make this an annual event! Any railroad organization should consider having this concert at an event.
