Best Bluegrass Band In Town

We hired Hot Pickin 57s for our wedding on 3/19/2022. My wife is from Knoxville, TN and she really wanted to have a bluegrass band for our wedding ceremony. We spent a few weekends listening to a lot of bands in the area and we decided to go with Hot Pickin. They were fun, upbeat and we knew our guests would really like them. They were also very organized and had their repertoire laid out so they were extremely easy to deal with. My wife had a special song she wanted to be played for the bridal procession, and they learned to play it just for our wedding. That ended up being a really nice touch, and we are thankful that they were willing to do that for us. We also had an outdoor wedding so logistically it wasn't the easiest for them to set up and play, but they were very accommodating and it worked out perfectly. When we hired them we knew they would knock it out of the park and that is exactly what they did. Our guests thought they were awesome and are still raving about them weeks later. The only downside for us was that since we were in the actual wedding we didn't get to hear them until the end. But thankfully we had a videographer, and we look forward to listening to the whole show once we get the footage back. We are glad they are local so we can continue to check out their shows around town. Plus I really want to buy a Hot Pickin 57s t-shirt. Hot Pickin fans for life. Thank You!

It was a pleasure to work with Hot Pickin 57s! Max was very communicative before the event and the guys (and gal!) showed up on time and ready to play the day of the party. They had a great sound for easy listening and weren't too loud that our guests couldn't talk to one another. We really enjoyed them and look forward to using them at future events!

Hot Pickin 57s were an absolute delight to work with. Steve came out to the venue prior to our wedding to make sure everything was set up exactly how we wanted. The group had exceptional attention to detail and nailed the set, including our special requests. Fun, upbeat, bluegrass sound was exactly what we were hoping for in our "rustic" style wedding. They are an incredible group of musicians - only downside is I couldn't enjoy the set as I was the bride!
