Hunker Down is the best! They are lively, talented, and absolutely made our dance floor a blast. They perfectly accommodated our wishes, and their set list was exactly what we were hoping for. Andy is kind, easygoing, and a joy to work with. The team is communicative, prompt, and extremely talented. You won't regret hiring Hunker Down for your event or wedding!
I totally scored finding this band. They really sound great.... they were perfect for our ranch wedding. I love bluegrass and they played some amazing bluegrass and classic rock with a bluegrass twist. Andy was really kind and really willing to work with me and make sure I got exactly what I wanted. It really made our night special.
