The local boys did an outstanding job at our wedding!!! We had our reception out on our farm and they were so easy to work with and I did not have to worry about anything. The guest loved getting to hear them play and they made it all so simple. They all came dressed sharp and made such a good impression on our guests! I would very highly recommend them and hope to get to use them for other events in the future!!

We were very please with The Local Boys. They were on time, very professional and played a lot of great music over the three hours. Their music was wonderful and a perfect choice for a pig pickin’. I would highly recommend the band.

The Local Boy were fantastic! I say enough good things about them. Their sound live is phenomenal! They preformed in the heat of a July day without complaint and they did so in such a manner that uplifted my guest spirits. I will recommend this group to anyone and everyone.

Truly the nicest guys, they were extremely easy to work with and accommodating for our outdoor corporate event. With everything else I had to worry about (450+ attendees in 90 degree heat), it was so refreshing to have such a self sufficient and professional group of gentleman to work with. I would recommend them in a heartbeat and will most definitely be hiring them again for future events.

Wedding•Reviewed on October 9, 2017•From Chapel Hill, NC
We had a wonderful time at our wedding reception in September in Chapel Hill with the help of this band! The Local Boys are courteous and professional and very skilled musicians. We appreciated their flexibility to play a set outside early in the evening and end the night inside the barn. They played our first dance song, Harvest Moon, perfectly! Our guests came from all over the country and had a variety of musical tastes; everyone had great time. Our guests from Wisconsin loved the Violent Femmes covers. Our guitar building, banjo playing relatives from WV were in heaven with the serious bluegrass songs. Thanks for a great party. Be well y'all!

The Local Boys were fantastic. They arrived early to set up getting familiar with the surroundings and the needs of the audience. The music was superb and the crowd loved them. They played special requests and invited audience participation.
They were received so positively I have contacted the producers of a music show on PBS to possibly feature them.
The were that good!
I would hire them again and hopefully have the need to hire again. I cannot say enough. Wonderful, marvelous! You can't go wrong with The Local Boys.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on December 4, 2017•From Statesville, NC
The Local Boys were outstanding! They performed at my wedding reception in Nov. 2017 & the music they played was terrific; a mix of bluegrass and Americana. As soon as I booked "The Local Boys" on GigMasters, the band manager, contacted me immediately and asked good questions. He also took the time to answer my questions & ask about my requests. We had many compliments about how great the music was at out reception and all of the band members were very professional. I HIGHLY recommend them to anyone who wanted them to perform at an event & enjoys the type of music they play. The cost was very reasonable for the time offered & the quality of the performance.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on June 4, 2017•From Charlotte, NC
I literally cannot say enough about these guys! I booked them for my husband's surprise 30th birthday party that we held in our backyard. We did a low country boil/bluegrass theme and The Local Boys rocked it! I worked directly with one of the lead singers Aaron who was very organized, responsive and professional. Our guests had an absolute BLAST and I received compliments about them all evening long. They were fun, talented and super friendly. If you are looking for a fun-loving group of musicians to bring your event to life, look no further. I will 100% book these guys again in the future. Thank you Local Boys!

Wedding•Reviewed on March 18, 2016•From Advance, NC
These guys are solid. We had a great experience from first contact to the end of our reception. The band members are exceptionally cordial and accommodating. I would highly recommend this band for entertainment. The ceremony music was all perfectly timed thanks to Aaron's execution of my playlist. He jumped right in, having seen it for the first time, and it went off without a hitch.
One of the many things that made these guys stand out for us(aside from TALENT and professionalism) is how they became part of the celebration. They smiled, cheered, and joined in on our celebration, which made us feel like we truly did have all friends and family present.

I loved this band so much! Their style fit so perfectly with our wedding. They were on time and communicated with me constantly from time of booking until the day of. All the band members were so nice and friendly. Their song list is long and full of awesome hits from all different decades. Everyone pulled me aside and told me how great they were. I'd definitely book them again!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on July 28, 2015•From Traphill, NC
The Local Boys were a perfect compliment to our wedding ceremony and reception. They played us down the aisle and out of the ceremony at the end, and then they kept the party going at the reception. They learned special songs for our first dance, per my request, and they were as gracious as we could've asked for as guests and hired vendors. We would recommend them to anyone looking for a truly authentic bluegrass musician for a wedding or party - great experience!

They played for my son's and daughter-in-law's outdoor mountain wedding. They made sure to accommodate the bride and groom's wishes and even learned a couple new songs for them. Their music was lively and fun and they were very professional.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 18, 2011•From Asheville, NC
Wonderful repertoire, played with energy, skill, and heart made for great dancing that everyone enjoyed very much. Their song selection is extraordinary, the bluegrass sound interpreting a wide range of favorite songs, many not often heard at parties. They included traditional songs too which anchored the sound in its roots.
:
Thank you very much for the kind words! We had a fantastic time and the venue was beautifully maintained. Congratulations and Best Wishes to the bride and groom! Let us know if we can help again in the future! And again, thanks.

We hired The Local Boys for an outdoor oyster roast. They were extremely professional and friendly and we were extremely pleased with their performance. I would definitely recommend them for any type of venue and I would hire them again in a minute.

Wedding•Reviewed on June 14, 2010•From New Hill, NC
The Local Boys learned a special song for the father/daughter dance upon request and brought tears to my dad's eyes when he heard it. Many guests commented on what a wide variety of music the band could play covering everything from traditional bluegrass to all-time party favorites to more contemporary stuff like Jason Mraz. The band members are also multi-talented, being able to switch back and forth between instruments. All in all, they were professional, considerate, reliable and a whole lot of fun. I would certainly hire this band again and would recommend them to anyone looking for a great bluegrass band with the ability to appeal to a diverse audience.

The Local Boys were talented and professional! They were on time, very concerned with how they could do anything extra to make the party special, and very kind. The Local Boys are authentic bluegrass and were the perfect fit for our Barbecue and Bluegrass engagement party.
