CHATENAY SQUARE WINE FESTIVAL

Straight Shooter was a blast!!! Being from Manhattan, KS there wasn’t alot of live bands to choose from and we picked Straight Shooter from the LONG list of songs they play and their overall ratings.Their list of songs is extremely extensive and ranges into something that EVERYONE likes to dance to. They kept the party moving way after the my (new!) husband and I did-and everyone is still talking about them!!

Their music was great, they sounded amazing (I never heard them live until the night of the wedding)!!! This is the one that will leave you with no doubts when you book them, and will amaze you with their talent at your function!!! Thanks Straight Shooter!!!

Completely and utterly delighted with the entire evening. Jim Duggins was in constant contact with me before the dance…always asking if I wanted special songs. They are the BEST…They played a wide varity of songs with great enthusiasm, their love of music shows in the bands attitude.

It was so wonderful to find a band that fit such a diverse crowd….Our wedding dance was unforgettable.(even did a drum roll when I threw the bouquet) If you are lucky enough to have them play for you I have no doubt you will be as pleased as I am. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!!

This band couldn’t have been more perfect for our wedding reception! Theses guys were full of energy, fun, and, enthusiasm! They were most accommodating and flexible, traveling more than 4 hours just to play for our reception. The entire band was professional and punctual as well as engaging and entertaining.

They even went so far as to learn a new song for our first dance! The guests still rave about how much fun they had dancing to such great music. Straight Shooter go above and beyond to play a variety of music and take requests from guests; there’s a little something for everyone. The band made our night perfect, and was a highlight of our reception. The music and dancing kept us at the reception even longer than we expected.

We certainly wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them for any occasion and we would use them again in a heartbeat! We are so grateful to the Straight Shooter for making ours an event to remember!”

Thanks again!

These guys are great; they were lively, upbeat, and fun. When they say “country western band” they go much beyond that. They may get a lot of their inspiration from country, but they extend their music much further. They are easy to work with, very professional and timely. Straight Shooters made our special day one we will never forget.

All of our friends and family (young and older) loved them. They are still talking about the experience a month after the event. The band even took song requests from the crowd, and let my father sing a song with their sound equipment and let one of my bridesmaids sing karaoke with them playing in the background. Book with Straight Shooters, you will not regret it. They are so much fun and will make your event one to remember!

Straight Shooter made the night at my wedding. I had a smaller reception with only about 55 guests. I was worried no one would dance in a group that small, especially considering many of my guests were quite a bit older. Well I needn’t have worried, we danced for hours right up until the band was scheduled to quit at 11 PM.

The band learned a new song (Willie Nelson’s Blue Skies) just so that my Dad and I could dance to it together. It was really a wonderful time and I got so many compliments on the band. If you like classic rock, or classic country you absolutely cannot beat having this band at your event. I’m sure they do well in some other genres, but at my wedding this music hit the spot! The band is very talented, and at times I felt they were even better than the original artists.

My Dad was also thrilled to hear them play the Beer Song (their own composition), which he had learned from their website. I really liked their special marriage version of Fulsom Prison Blues. Great job guys!

Well I couldnt have booked a more appropriate band. The crowd was very pleased and we are actually booking them for another event. We had about 120 guests and they all complimented on how great the band was. They were alot of fun and we all really enjoyed ourselves. Thank you Straight Shooter for making our Christmas Party so much fun. They are awesome!!!

StraightShooter were absolutely fantastic – we would recommend them to anybody who wanted to hire them for a wedding. Nothing was too much to ask of them and they did more than we could have ever expected, and at an unbelievably good price. They turned up early to get set up (1:30pm for a wedding starting at 5:00pm) as we had asked if we could use their sound system during the ceremony.

They also stayed and chatted to the groom during the build up to the ceremony and kept him calm by telling him stories and anecdotes. When the music got going they played the perfect mix of slow songs and rocking tunes so that there was something for everyone and a great atmosphere, and were never too loud or too quiet. They really made the wedding and joined in with the food, made a toast to the bride and groom and even used some of the disposable cameras we had left out for people to take pictures of the wedding from the front of the venue!

You couldn’t ask to meet a nicer group of guys and we would hire them again in a heart beat for any future event we may organize.

We appreciate every one of you in the band and all that you and your families do for us! The Lt. Governor and all of us and the guests have enjoyed hearing your band play and look forward to the next time.

We are not sure where the watch party will be, but hopefully it will be at a place that we can have the band.

I will be in touch and thanks again for all you have done!!

Thanks, Ashley
