Wedding Reception•Reviewed on September 14, 2025•From San Francisco, CA
Ian + band were absolutely incredible and Ian was extremely easy to communicate with! We booked them for our wedding reception and received so many compliments on how amazing and fun the music was! The energy was truly on a whole new level. Ian helped me coordinate with a difficult venue and ensured the approvals were taken care of so I could focus on other parts of the wedding planning. His kindness and leadership was so helpful and I appreciated him going the extra mile to ensure we were taken care of. At the end of the reception, they unexpectedly were able to play a song that we requested as an encore and is very dear to my family. We danced the night away!

This was such a loving and joyful wedding party, we were thrilled and honored to perform for you, your lovely groom, friends and family.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 17, 2025•From Felton, CA
We decided to book the band for our wedding based upon a friend having seen them at a wedding 11 years ago, and were we lucky she remembered them, Ian, was beyond easy to work with. He made a 150 mile round trip to meet us at the venue (county park in Felton) for a pre site inspection. Offered to provide additional equipment at no additional cost, sound system for our officiant, and wireless mic for the toasts. Our guests loved the vibe of the band, but most of all they worked up two special requests for our first dance and our parents dance. They even played processional and recessional music for our actual ceremony.

Kris and Julia, your wedding was an amazing day of your friends and family coming together to help you experience shared joy and love. We were thrilled to be a part of the celebration. Thanks for the kind review. Best Ian

We love Nobody From Nashville! We booked them for a large winery event and they were fantastic - really set a good vibe. Not only are they all excellent musicians, but they are fun and engaging with the audience. Ian and the band members are so pleasant to work with. We can't wait to have them back for the next one!

We had a great experience working with Ian and the band for our wedding cocktail hour. They were willing to work with us on what we wanted (both in terms of songs of interest and logistics), were both friendly and professional, and created the vibe we were looking for. Thanks so much!

Nobody From Nashville were amazing! Ian and Joan and band went beyond our expectations. The learned John Prine's In Spite of Ourselves and NAILED it! We couldn't have been happier with how it all worked out. Our guests raved about how good and how fun they were. The sets they played included lots of old favorites of ours and made our event feel extra special. We had nothing but big ol hearts dancing in our eyes??

We can't recommend this incredible band enough!!! Not only are they unbelievable musicians, but Ian was so communicative and caring through the entire process. They incorporated many of our favorite songs in their set list and even accommodated a last minute change to the schedule. The day of our wedding they came ready to play and my goodness they added such magic to the day. We can't wait to find more excuses to book them again!

Thanks, Hannah it was a joy to be a part of your special day. Appreciate your feedback and comments and would be honored to perform for your friends and family anytime.

Nobody from Nashville was the perfect accent to our bohemian -bluegrass themed charity Gala. Working with Ian was incredibly easy and the band was very accommodating of special requests (such as playing the guests into dinner across a footbridge from the garden). They were punctual, well-dressed and very professional. The quality of the music was fantastic and many guests commented on how fun the band was and how much they added to the vibe of the party.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on April 25, 2018•From Martinez, CA
Nobody From Nashville were great! We booked this bluegrass band for my mom's 70th birthday (which had a western theme) on very short notice and they fit the bill perfectly. I was a bit concerned that they would be overwhelming for the space since it was a four piece band for an indoor house party, but Ian took the time to listen to my concerns and assured me that they would work with our needs. The music choice was great, the skill level was great, the band members were friendly and personable, and the price was reasonable. I am booking them again for a future event and Ian has been very responsive. I will happily recommend them to friends.

Private Party•Reviewed on October 2, 2017•From Woodside, CA
At the last minute, we decided to have live music at our school fundraiser which was hosted outdoors in a backyard. Ian Epstein from the band was quick to respond, worked with me on budget and was super easy to deal with. The gathering was about 90 people. Everyone and I mean everyone loved the music. People kept asking me where I found them. They showed up early, were ready to play at the precise start time, brought one additional member a young female fiddler and played 30 minutes longer than contracted all at no additional cost. They were entertaining, professional and awesome! Hope to hear them perform again.

Thanks Amy, glad your guests enjoyed I know we did. Hope to perform for your group again. Ian

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on September 5, 2017•From Fairfield, CA
When I went to Gigmasters to find a killer Bluegrass Americana band I had no one particular in mind, thrilled I found Ian Epstein. It was for a special family gathering for about 75 people on our ranch, a surprise birthday party for my mom. We had some special requests some bluegrass favorites and Mariachi tube yep Mariachi!They arrived early, set up a great sound system then played all our requests and then some. Old Crowe Medicine Show, Stanley Brothers, Hank Williams, Johnny Cash, Willie,The Band,played every request! Played for 1/2 hour longer than contracted, everyone was thrilled, dancing, singing along, they made the party.

Nobody from Nashville performed at our wine club release party this past weekend and they were FABULOUS! Everyone was nice, professional and so very talented! We had several people approach us asking about them to potentially hire for upcoming events that they have. We look forward to having them back again.
