Easy to work with - delivered on an amazing night!

We booked Clint & the Montana Gazette Band to play our wedding at Chico Hot Springs in Pray. They provided both the instrumental music for the ceremony and cocktail hour, as well as the full band for the reception. From the beginning, they were so wonderful to work with and incredibly flexible in planning the logistics of the day. They customized their set list and even learned songs for both the ceremony and the first dances at the reception. They took care of all their own set up and were fully ready with no fuss and time to spare. The music for the ceremony and cocktail hour was amazing - the fiddle and guitar was the perfect backdrop. Then they really got the party started after dinner and kept the dance floor hopping all night with their selection of 80s and 90s country classics. They played even longer than we expected! So many folks commented on how special the music was and how much fun they made the reception. Highly, highly recommend you consider them if the vibe you are looking for at your wedding or event is a good time at rockin' saloon.
