Nova Scotia's most refreshing party band, the Laughing Freemen respectfully and magnificently perform a unique mix of classic rock/pop/dance gems. Four musicians share decades of performing experience, a love for forgotten musical treasures, and meticulous attention to details that make songs great. With a pro PA and Light rig (if required), the band fine tunes its shows to the event/venue, making every show special and memorable. The Laughing Freemen perform Plugged-In or Unplugged, and can provide eveything from a single classical guitarist, or an intimate Kitchen Party or cocktail party, to a full-on dance party!

I hired these guys for our corporate Xmas party (insurance company) in Dec 2013....and they were so much fun. First of all....great sound and lights....not too loud (I hate it when bands are too loud). They had the show ready to go well ahead of time, and we're very efficient in organizing the event in the first place. They took a number of requests (including 2 songs that we pre-arranged for them to play....and they nailed them!!), and even got two of our exuberant co-workers up on stage to sing with them...LOL!!!
A great experience all in all. Thanx to Danny Banfield and the Laughing Freemen!
Response from Laughing Freemen:
Thanx so much Terry for this. We had a frigging blast as well. Hope to see you again this year!
