Bluegrass Unlimited Reviews from clients: "My wife and I have run a private party in our barn hosting around 150 people for the past 18 years. For the first four years we had trouble finding just the right musical group for the atmosphere we wanted to create. We found "Creekbend" and have been overjoyed! Their musicianship, sense of humor and blend of style is perfect for us. So good in fact that in 2018 they will be back for their 15th straight year. Our guests would shoot us if "Creekbend" wasn't there!" -Pete and Dawn in Darien NY "We have gotten such amazing feedback on your band. Thank you so much. The crowd absolutely loved you. I hope you will play at our event again next year? It was a pleasure having you." -Events Coordinator at Nichols School, Buffalo NY "I have seen Creek Bend play numerous times in many different settings, and have hired them for several miscellanous functions. They are a convenient band to book since they bring their own sound system and equipment and are usually quite flexible with scheduling. You will find their music to be popular across a wide scope of audience preference as they feature numerous different styles with an emphasis on acoustic instrumentation and 4 part harmony vocals. Their downhome style and ease in front of crowds allows for a worry free event of entertainment. They are especially good at weddings where a square dance may be involved - great music with clear and easy instructions. In my opinion, they are a talented band and well worth the money!" - Keith Bluegrass promoter, Mennonite Pastor and former host of Bluegrass radio show in Buffalo NY
