The Barretones is a group of veteran DC-area performers led by Randy Barrett. We provide a professional bluegrass sound at parties, weddings and concerts of all types. Try us!
The Barretones were great. They came on time and set up. Their music was lively and our guests enjoyed them. Unfortunately we were not quite ready to serve dinner when they set up so not all of guests were in the area we had designated for the band (near the serving table) when they began. That was our fault not theirs.
I would recommend them to anyone looking for a bluegrass band to liven up their party.
Response from The Barretones:
Thanks so much Jane. We enjoyed playing for you.
Recommend the Barretones wholeheartedly
Response from The Barretones:
Thanks so much, David. We really enjoyed playing for you.
We hired the Barretones to play our house party on July 7, 2018. They were so great in so many ways! Musically and vocally: tight, gifted, and with good judgment. Communication: Highly responsive and efficient. Personally: All really pleasant and personable. All my guests told me how great the band was, both during and after the party.
A true pleasure all the way around. I'd hire them a gain in a heartbeat.
Response from The Barretones:
Thanks so much, Jeremy. It was a really fun time. Glad you all enjoyed it.
Wonderful mix of Bluegrass Music. Their vocals were spot on. We received so many compliments from our guests about their musical abilities. We highly recommend Randy and the Barretones !
We were lucky to have The Barretones play at my father in law's memorial service. They were really good and everyone was delighted with the choice and execution for songs. We thank you for your contribution to the difficult day and your professionalism.
Incredibly talented, personable group. Randy, Tom, Tom and Ricky provided fantastic sets. The entire crowd loved them. Can't wait to book them again. Thank you Barretones!
