Looking for a guitar/violin duo for your wedding or special event? We have played and DJed events and weddings for the past 10 years! Our live set contains crowd- pleasing covers and upbeat original tunes. For weddings, our specialty is beautiful ceremony music and cocktail hour music.
When DJing receptions, I aim to please all ages on the dance floor! I can provide my own PA system, provide mics for speeches, and MC during the event to keep things moving along.
Nick was the perfect addition to our family Christmas celebration. Our guests absolutely loved his singing.
He created such a warm and festive atmosphere.
Many of our guests commented on how much they enjoyed his performance. I will definitely be recommending Nick to our friends and family.
We had Nick and Thomas perform/DJ our wedding. Nick did a ton of prep work leading up to the event to make sure he included all our special songs, as well as filled in the gaps with other songs. They did a mixture of live music and DJing, which is what I’d recommend to anyone - makes it that much more engaging for your guests! Absolutely amazing job to them and would recommend to everyone for a wedding or other special event.
Nick did an incredible job enhancing my wife’s 60th Birthday Bash!
Nick and Thomas were amazing for our Summer Event we hosted. So easy to work with and played a variety of music. Set up and take down was a breeze. Everyone who came was impressed. I will absolutely be hiring Nick again for future parties and events we have coming up.
Fantastic band for my 50th birthday bash! Easy to book, showed up on time and ready to play, great music and stories as well! Highly recommend! Thank you!
Nick did an awesome job for our celebration of life event. The combination of guitar and violin were great. I asked Nick to also perform three specific songs which he mastered and performed live. I really appreciated his responsiveness and professionalism throughout. Highly recommended!
Nicks voice and style were exactly what we had hoped for, and the fact that he carries himself as a total gentleman made our experience even better.
We asked Nick to do the music at our wedding. He did such an amazing job, the music was beautiful, and he helped to create an enjoyable atmosphere. A few years later, we still get compliments on his performance. He played at our ceremony and at our reception. He is so kind, professional, communicated with us, and he was definitely a key component to our wedding being so beautiful. I would definitely not hesitate to have him play at any event.
Nick was the DJ at my wedding, and did a fantastic job! He was given a general vibe for the music, with a few specific requests, and delivered it perfectly.
Additionally, Nick was just the right level of performer/personality for our wedding DJ. He knew when to use the microphone to encourage people to the dance floor, but was also happy to fade back when things were moving along well. I'd recommend him to anybody.
Great to work with. Talented musicians with a lot of material that blends recognizable covers with originals!
Nick was the DJ at our wedding in 2015. He did an amazing job. All the people that attended made comments at how great our DJ was! He did a wonderful job setting the mood at just the right times.
Nick DJ'd for us at our wedding and not only did he successfully fill the dance floor within the first song (nobody in my family dances, I was amazed), but he worked closely with my now-husband to ensure we had the perfect soundtrack to our evening, from start to finish
We hired Nick as the DJ for my son's wedding after seeing him perform at various venues on multiple occasions. He was fantastic and we couldn't have been happier with his services! Everything went off without a hitch and the evening was completely stress -free. Nick had the crowd on their feet, ensuring the party stayed lively and enjoyable all night. Our guests had an absolute blast! I wholeheartedly recommend Nick for your upcoming event!
We chose Nick and Tom to play at our wedding. They had excellent communication and went above and beyond our expectations. They were willing to learn songs for us and they were very personable with us and our guests. They were perfect and we would 100% recommend them. They made out wedding magical and elegant and we got so many compliments from our guests our wedding photographer. Nick offered to DJ and they played our wedding music playlist and gave us song recommendations, and he came to our rehearsal to make sure everything came together before the big day. We couldn't imagine having anyone else there. They made our wedding dreams come true. Thank you so, so, SO much, we are so appreciative. What an absolutely magical and dreamy day and it was made possible because of them.

If an audience came to see me, they can expect to see a duo (acoustic guitar/singer and violin). The songs would be a mix of original tunes, covers, and mashups. Listeners would hear covers from the 70's through the early 2000's. The style would be a mix of blues, folk, and rock. They would hear a lot of stories and jokes between songs.
Nick Critchlow is a singer/songwriter from Fort Collins, Colorado. He has been a local NoCo musician for over a decade, playing his original acoustic tunes up-and-down the front range. Critchlow enjoys tongue-in-cheek lyrics and telling humorous stories in between songs. His biggest musical influences are The Lumineers, John Mayer, The Avett Brothers, and Jack Johnson. Depending on the size and needs of the venue, Critchlow plays solo, as a duo, or trio.
