The leader of the band had a discrepancy about the time they were to play. He argued with me over it halfway through their music set. The event was from 7-9pm and at 7:30 he said they were done at 8pm and I was like no you were hired from 7-9. He argued over it. He then went and looked at the contract and realized I was correct and he did apologize. I was thankful he apologized, but it put me on edge the rest of the night with this band. Their music was ok, but they didn’t turn it up loud enough for us to hear them throughout the night and we kept telling them to turn it up. We were a lively bunch of 150 people, but we still should have been able to hear them playing over us. So it wasn’t a great experience for us.

The Bluegrass Sound Band was great! Just what I was looking for our Carter Family Reunion - background music where we could still hear each other talk. They were professional, entertaining and lively. Former President and Mrs. Carter were pleased!

Thank you for the kind review. It was our honor and pleasure to play for all you folks. You are very kind. Meeting President and Mrs. Carter was the highlight of our trip. My band was amazed at how active they both are. We wish them the best of health in the future. Thank you for hiring us. If you ever need us again, just call me. Thanks again. Jim Miller Manager of the Bluegrass Sound Band, Marietta, Ga.
