Introduction

Four reasons you'll enjoy us! First, our song selection. We don't perform a song unless we're both really crazy about it -- and we find that our audiences relate very well to the music we choose. Second, Matt's banjo and dobro playing. He's simply great on his instruments. Third, our vocals. We believe that harmonies are a special attribute of music, and we work hard to make them both precise and musical. And fourth, our versatility: from Bill Monroe to Bob Dylan to Merle Haggard and Miranda Lambert, we love a whole variety of music, and we can adjust to your preferences. We just love performing. It's a treat to see people singing along, tapping their feet, dancing and smiling. What better job could there be?

Q&A

What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

We will spend as much time talking with a customer as necessary to determine logistics, timing, number of guests, musical preferences, sound needs, etc. We want to make sure we are providing the music you want in the way you want it.

What types of customers have you worked with?

We have performed for weddings, birthday parties, non-profit events, at restaurants, bars and wine bars; and at grange halls and community centers. We also have played at many farmers markets in Multnomah, Clark and Clackamas Counties.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Consider your audience and their preferences; the venue (size, indoors or out, availability of power, etc.) and whether your entertainment will be background music or a in a listening setting. All these will help you and your performers determine equipment needs, set up times, range of music and other issues that will help make your event a success.
