Professional, friendly, and incredibly talented
Neighbourly B booked Country Cool for their event
“We booked Lilac and Ben from Country Cool to perform at our western-themed corporate fun day last week. They were fantastic! Professional, friendly, and incredibly talented, Lilac and Ben had our team of 60 cowfolk on their feet, singing and line dancing (well, attempting to line dance). Country Cool made our event memorable, and we would not hesitate to book them again!”

John was the dream we could only imagine...
Rebecca booked The Banjo Guy for their wedding in South Yorkshire
“John was everything we hoped and more! I was so excited to hear his music live and he certainly didn't disappoint! Planning and arranging the set up with John was easy and his replies were always warm and informative. We requested the possibility of a song personal to us for when we walked down the aisle and what he put together was absolutely spot on and so beautiful! His talent is extraordina...”
