High energy Country / Rock cover band. Specializing in Weddings, Festivals & Private Parties
Steve put on an amazing performance!
Response from Buckledown:
Thanks again Kris for booking with me! So glad your gang enjoyed the show.
High quality music entertainment delivered with love and passion for the crowd. Everybody had a great time singing great tunes and dancing the night away.
Steve did a great job in engaging the crowd with such vibrance and even gave an unplugged performance at the end of the party.
The quality of music and performance was top notch and was delivered in a very professional manner. He saved the best for last. Couldn’t ask for a better entertainer for the party.
My guests were definitely very impressed and are now fans of Buckledown. Will definitely have them back for future events!
Response from Buckledown:
Thank you Julia, had a great time with you and your guests!
Steve.

We like to throw a great party and entertain our friends and family of all ages. Buckledown was a perfect fit for our backyard pool party/45th birthday celebration. This was our first time using GigSalad, and also our first time hiring entertainment that was any more than a single singer with guitar. We Could Not be More impressed!!! They arrived right on time despite travelling from Ottawa area to Kingston, they adapted quickly to set up on our back porch keeping in mind that people would be using the patio doors behind them and kept room for the flow of traffic. They were very gracious and even mingled with our guests a bit during the breaks in sets. And Most of all they played a wide array of songs (country, the hip, current songs, oldies) and had amazing voices... true talent! We would hire them again! Lots of guests were asking about how we had found them!
Response from Buckledown:
Thank you for booking Buckledown and or the kind words. We are thrilled you and your guest enjoyed the band and we look forward to working for you again in the future!

Steve and the band were amazing! We hired them to play our wedding. Not only did they do a great job with our first dance song (which they learned specially for us), they were willing to let my husband perform a song with them for me during our reception. This would have been enough for a five star review on its own - but they went above and beyond. There was no power to the venue when they arrived as the tornados had hit Ottawa an hour earlier! They hooked up to a generator and were even able to provide some lighting for dinner as they set up. The music was just great and had everyone up dancing all night! Without these guys, we would not have been able to pull together a fun reception in the midst of a power outage. You will not regret hiring them!
Response from Buckledown:
Thank you Erin, we had a blast playing for your reception and were happy to be able to “shed a little light for you” during the power outage!
You guys handled a trying situation like champs I’m sure it will always be a night to remember!!
