Mama Coal and Nick were outstanding! So much talent and grace in these two humans. By far the easiest and most organized vendor that we hired for my daughter's wedding. Don't look twice for any other talent for your event. This is all you need.

Thank you Trish! We really appreciate your feedback and wonderful review! Feels great to know we contributed something special to such a special occasion.

Mamma Coal and South Western Stars were amazing. The talent was top notch, and they are excellent entertainers and so easy to work with. Cara taught our group line dancing, and we had a blast. Would 100% recommend them at any event, and hope to see them perform again one day!

Thank you so much for having us! What a fun group! This review means a lot. Thank you!

Amazing! Such a talented group and a fantastic choice in songs. So many complements received from the guests. Guests loved the choice in songs and how the music did not drown out their conversations.

We highly recommend Mamma Coal & South Western Stars! They played for our wedding in Sedona, AZ this fall and we had a great experience working with Carra. She was very responsive and easy to work with, had everything organized and even was able to help us with a mic & sound for our outdoor, off-site ceremony. She also stood in as our emcee for the night and did a great job. Our guests loved the live music & line-dancing lesson. We even had some band members play instrumental music during our cocktail hour. We had great peace-of-mind choosing Carra and were really happy working with her and her band members. Highly recommend to anyone looking for live music!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on November 13, 2023•From Tucson, AZ
HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMEND South Western Stars. My husband and I booked Carra for our wedding day ceremonial music, and it was one of the best decisions we had made in planning our special day. Carra was communicative, and made sure that the music was exactly what we wanted and more. We chose to go with specific songs for each portion of our ceremony, and Carra was able to accommodate all of our requests. We even got a sneak peak audio recording of one of the songs we chose and it just really made the experience even better. I appreciate all of the hard work and artistry that went into our ceremony and Carra and her team did an amazing job. BEST MONEY SPENT!

Thank you Caitlin! It was such a pleasure being part of your and Andrew's wonderful, BEAUTIFUL day! Thank you for having us and treating us with such kindness. <3

Carra and the rest of the South Western Stars were AMAZING! From the very first email with Carra, we knew we had to book them. She was beyond professional and helpful every step of the way. Carra and the band are super talented and are still being talked about by guests about how amazing they were. We couldn’t be happier with our choice of having South Western Stars be our wedding band.

Thank you so much Erica and Doug! It was such a beautiful wedding and we are so happy for you both! Enjoy your next chapter!

Mamma Coal & the South Western Stars are AWESOME!!! Such a talented band and were so accomodating to make for a special night celebrating the Univ. of Arizona College of Vet Med Graduates. The communication was excellent, the professionalism was top notch, and the performance was unrivaled. We are already planning our next event and can't wait to have them on stage again.

Thank you Chad and team! What a special night. We were proud to be a part of it and look forward to working together again!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 28, 2022•From Tucson, AZ
Carra and the rest of the band are so incredibly talented! They played a wide range of old and new country, and even threw in a few originals! Everyone kept coming up to us just to tell us how much they loved the band! I especially enjoyed the line dancing tutorial that Carra gave, it got all my friends and family out onto the dance floor! Carra was incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process, and it took so much weight off my shoulders the day of the reception. I would recommend the South Western Stars to absolutely anyone and everyone in need of a wedding band, or even just check out one of Carra's local shows! I promise, you won't regret it!!

The whole band was amazing. They sounded great and accommodated all my requests. Working with Cara was so easy especially when I was making requests beforehand. Definitely going to book them again for next year.

Carra and her musicians made the night successful. EVERYONE commented on how beautiful Carra's voice is, how they were able to read the room, their flexibility in moving inside and outside, and especially that they learned a song in a day to play to our newly weds! I would 100% recommend them for any event- large or small.
Thank you so much for everything, you absolutely made the night what it was- it would have been a total flop with you all.
Also, suffice to say, Alvin did an amazing job in being super stealth in setting everything up perfectly and dismantling without . Could not be a happier client.
Thank you times a million! Cannot wait to book you again!

Wow! Thank you so much Caroline for this wonderful feedback. We're thrilled that you are so happy! What a wonderful event that was! We'd love to work with you again!!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on November 18, 2021•From Tucson, AZ
This band absolutely MADE our wedding special in every way. Carra and co were professional, helpful, and spent hours with us planning the event. Every song was beautiful and perfectly executed. Beyond that Carra has the voice of an angel. Carra and co. (Southwestern stars) are going places and we feel extremely privileged to have been able to have them to make our wedding special. They were incredible and every wedding guest noted their exceptional talent. Thank you Southwestern Stars (Mamma Coal), we will NEVER stop feeling that this most important day was all that more special because of you and your colleagues. Awesome in every way!

Thank you Jamie! It was such a pleasure to play your wedding! We are thrilled that you're so happy with the experience! Thank you for leaving a review!

Mamma Coal is THE BEST! Hiring Mamma Coal was hands down the best decision I made for my wedding! It's been weeks since the wedding and my guests are still talking about how amazing the band was. The line dancing was a big hit! Incredible talent aside, Carra is lovely, helpful person. She genuinely cared about making her band and music fit our vision for the wedding. Her follow up and professionalism surpassed my expectations. On many occasions, she had suggestions to make the day more special and flow more smoothly. She even acted as an unofficial wedding coordinator in some respects! I cannot say enough glowing things about her. Do not hesitate to hire Mamma Coal!

I hired Carra and Klay for a holiday party hosted at my venue for very important clients. They were great, played to the crowd and provided a breath of fresh air on country music!
I hope to hire them again in the future!
