Once again, the Lonesome Ryder Band was amazing during another weekend of store entertainment! A talented group of performers that really get the party going. Professional, punctual and great group of artists!

Corporate FunctionReviewed on May 18, 2017From New Kent, VA

:

I'm shocked by such a scathing review from Litsa! Yes, I did plenty of follow up calls, emails & several attempts to communicate over the course of several months! Unfortunately, Litsa waited until the final day or two before the event to respond. I had to contact the choreographer to get the song list & special requests. No wonder someone's Ipod playlist was needed, she NEVER provided them in advance. I personally spent quite a bit of time talking to Ken Price, the owner. Never once did he express any displeasure! In fact, quite the contrary! He was praising & pleased! Two female singers- the caterer was requested by the guest to sing! The other, Litsa's friend!

Private PartyReviewed on October 19, 2015From Richmond, VA

Band was super professional, arrived early, set up and impressed a mixed crowd of both young and old. Great job guys! Highly recommend LRB

:

Margret & Wayne were very gracious host, charming and full of Southern hospitality! They have built an amazing house and they're surrounded by such wonderful community neighbors & friends! Wayne loved the fact that our bass player Vince, looks so similar to Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead. That night, Wayne requested a few Dead songs, but unfortunately we only knew one or two! But we had a great time with great people! We especially loved sitting around the fire pit table for the buffet with the FUN GROUP! Thanks again Russ for having us perform and we look forward to our next event together! All our Best! Rick Sibbett Lonesome Ryder Band

Wedding ReceptionReviewed on October 5, 2015From Frederick, MD

I am colossally disappointed in our experience with the Lonesome Ryder Band. After a bumpy start about payment issues (they insisted we pay them directly instead of using the Gigmasters site), we still hoped they would deliver the fantastic talent we saw in their videos and other reviews. They arrived approximately 4 hours after the agreed time and had did sound check during dinner--something we asked them not to do. They failed to set up on time for cocktail hour, so we had to find a spare church speaker to play music during the cocktail and dinner hours. They played only one of the three songs we requested from them months before the event.

:

We're disappointed too! The "bumpy start" was the client's initial bad check! We were contractually on time! The bride & groom became drunk, disorderly & hostile at the end of the night, while packing up! The church pastor, Rick (deacon), the bride's sister Brooke & her mom all apologized for Kasey & Mike's behavior! We played five hours, provided sound for dinner & Ipod selections. Everyone danced, had a great time & loved the band! See photo's & videos on Youtube & Facebook. Shame on Gigmasters for allowing libelous non-compliant ratings of 0.5 below the minimum of 1. LRB has five years of dedicated & loyal vendor service with consecutive five star ratings! LRB

Club EventReviewed on April 19, 2015From Silver Spring, MD

Everyone had a great time. They showed up early and were ready to begin right on time. They seemed to enjoy performing as much as we loved having them.

:

I have to say that Pat and his lovely wife Beth are the best clients ever! I met Pat for a pre-event meeting to go over the facility venue, details and client/guest special requests! Everyone there the night of the event was so wonderful and they danced & danced and boy did they dance! We all had such FUN!!! What a great night with a great group of people! We look forward to coming back again sometime in the future to perform for this amazing group at such a lovely community facility for the "55 & Over" Crowd!!! Thank You once again Pat & Beth! Best Regards!, Rick Sibbett Lonesome Ryder Band

They were a great group of musicians with a variety of music that took our event to a higher level of enjoyment!

:

Jim is the best guy ever! Easy to communicate with, fun to work with and he clearly knows how to properly convey what he wants, expects and what works well with his organization, members and club! Lonesome Ryder Band will work for this guy anytime, any day of the week and twice on Sunday too! What a FUN bunch of wonderful people at the American Legion Post 364 in Woodbridge, Virginia! ...

Let me just start by saying, that Tammy & Mark are the best of people! They along with their wonderful family and friends made it a great night of fun, laughter, dancing and just an all around happy experience! This is the kind of event we love and look forward to! ... Good people, good food, kind hearts and the fun & laughter of life! And Frank- the "Birthday Boy" was so appreciative when our singer, Cindee sang to him all night and sang our Special tribute to his amazing life! We so look forward to returning back to upstate New York one day, to once again be fortunate enough to entertain and perform for this incredible family and wonderful group of people! T

The Lonesome Ryder Band's professionalism was great (to a T), if they needed anything, they asked questions. I stayed in touch with the band up until the event and they were very accommodating with any changes. We strongly recommend this band!

WeddingReviewed on June 24, 2013From Frederick, MD

The Lonesome Ryder Band was a terrific band for the country wedding we just had on our farm. They played tunes from multiple genres: rock, swing, soul, blues, jazz. We had a musician in from California and when we asked if he could play a couple of tunes for the bride, they were most agreeable, including the loan of an electric guitar; and they had him back for another couple of tunes. When asked to play longer than what we'd originally agreed upon, they again were willing to go along with the change. And the bang up finale was most appreciated by the hardy few hangers on up to midnight. If you like to dance, this is your band.

Birthday Party (Adult)Reviewed on July 29, 2012From Glen Allen, VA

We used the Lonesome Ryder Band for my mom's surprise 50th birthday last night and my biggest fear was hiring a band that couldn't keep people dancing- however the Lonesome Ryder Band made all those fears disappear! They played a wide variety of songs, as well as special requests made from my family! We danced the entire night and I had so many people come up and compliment the band. They even played a song for us at the very end (a traditional song in the family) and they had never even played it before. Very easy-going, professional band that we will definitely hold onto. We even gave them an oldies swing song for them to learn- and they learned it in a week!

:

I just want to say, that it was such a pleasure to perform for this wonderful Irish/Catholic family and their guest and friends! What an event full of love, fun, happiness and some of the greatest dancing I have ever seen anywhere! These people were amazing and their positive energy flowing back to the band only made it more fun and enjoyable to play and perform! Katelyn was such a great client, both her and her dad Rodney and the entire event was perfect without any problems! Furthermore, we sincerely want to thank Katelyn for her support, kind words and the generous ratings she provided to Gigmasters on our behalf! And we look forward to our next event together
