Great band

The Barncasters had great sound and energy, and played a solid playlist of more and lesser known covers. Everyone at the event had a great time.

Uncle Punch Keeps Growing!

Uncle Punch is a rock band with a better knack than most for connecting with community needs and rallying groups of cool people with similar interests. it's been a pleasure booking them over the years and they only seem to keep growing, which is awesome

What to expect

Fun! Hopefully, you'll be talking about what a good time you had for weeks to come.

About

In 2016, three guys came together with a common bond of the rock n' roll each had grown up on. Darrin from Chicago, Scott from Syracuse, and Stuart from Denver. All had similar paths with common themes. We really just love playing for people and enjoy the smiles we see when fans hear a song that strikes a particular chord. Today, people of all ages listen to the classic rock that shaped our worlds. We will play just about any gig as long as we can cover the gas to get there. Well, we would like to make a few bucks along the way. Honestly, we really enjoy each other and the music we make together.

Additional booking notes

We prefer to play on a stage of some sort and have enough room to move and good access to quality electricity. Other than that, we don't ask much.
