The number of musicians needed/hired, length of performance, traveling distance and costs, sound equipment needs, and special accommodations all play a role. We try to be fair, normally charging a simple flat fee for all events which are in short driving distance (under 2 hours), and require a 1-3 hour performance slot... we are flexible with performance times as needed for events. Our press kit here with "The Bash" only allows limited samples. Once you've fully previewed our music at our band's site we'll be glad to finalize and secure the booking through The Bash booking service. We have multiple booking agents. Please use our contact info listed at our site if you have direct needs or questions you'd like answered before proceeding with booking your event. Performing in most 20th century American genres, the Knuckle Dusters incorporate Old Time Fiddle/Bluegrass, Rockabilly, Blues, Texas Swing, Acoustic Rock & Roll, Classic Country, Ragtime, Celtic, and Folk music into their sets. They will customize their performance for your event. Their schedule often includes festivals, dinner theaters, performing arts centers, museums, hotels, weddings, square dances, taverns, civil-war re-enactments, and an otherwise diverse range of private and public events. The combo has featured Scott Spearly (guitar, vocals, harmonica), Paul Mackrell (banjo, guitar, vocals), Richard Pryor (mandolin, banjo, fiddle), Robbie Caruthers (fiddle) and Matthew Spearly (upright bass). The Knuckle Dusters have been featured in Jazziz magazine and several other online and print newspapers/publications. The group has recorded both live and in the studio. In 2008 the Knuckle Dusters were awarded the Rising Star award from "The Bash." The songs and videos in our press kit are just a small handful of samples... it's impossible to include them all. We know hundreds of tunes!!! Please visit our website for more complete listings by genre and style.
