Randy and the Barretones are the best. They made my backyard birthday party a big hit. Can’t wait to hire them for another show!

Thanks so much, Brad.
The Barretones were great to work with. They really made our party special and everyone remarked on how they loved their music. We'd love to have them play here again!

Thanks so much Cheryl! We really enjoyed coming out to your beautiful place and playing for the party. Let's do it again some time.

Everyone, including myself, agreed, they were awesome! I cannot say enough how well received they were. The music was spot on and couldn't have been more professional and the music sensational. 5 Star All the way. They played for a wedding reception at Skyland in the Shenandoah mountains. All the songs sounded great and they had a great repertoire. We had a couple of musical requests that they handled very well.

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, 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.

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!
