Whatever your event may be, we will make it memorable for years to come.
If you hire "The Dirty Pioneers"!!! This was my third party where this amazing band was performing and they just get better. This past Friday they entertained us at our company Christmas party and the Facebook comments are coming in fast and furious with appreciation for this group. We danced our feet off to music that was suitable for all ages. We will definitely be having them back. Awesome job!
I love live music! Especially when the band plays really well, with great song selection, and with tons of energy! All these things stand true with this band. I was very impressed with the range these musicians have. I ended up staying way later at the bar (dancing up a storm) because i had to know what song they'd play next. Was very impressed, had a great time, would definitely go see them again.
Seen them play multiple times at The Dickens and never disappoints. Its always a party when they play there, and im sure everywhere else they play!
Great job and keep it up DP's.
The Dirty Pioneers played at our wedding at the Hamilton Golf & Country Club on August 18, 2012, and they were fabulous! We’ve heard them play at bars before and asked them to play at our wedding because they play a great variety of music that caters to a wide range of age groups. The age group at our wedding was 22-70 years old and they had everyone dancing! They could hardly take any breaks because our guests did not want them to stop playing. Our family and friends that came from Holland for the wedding cannot stop talking about them and they even posted links to the band’s web site on their Facebook pages. Each member of the band complements each other – they are all very talented! Our guests loved the fact that they took requests as well. They contributed to making our wedding perfect! They are very professional and always respond to e-mail correspondence in a timely manner. We highly recommend them for birthday parties, corporate events and most of all, weddings!
Saw this band perform at an event in Port Dover. Can't say enough. Non stop fun. Had everyone dancing and played every style. Seemed everyone attending was able to hear something they liked. Highly recommended.
I don't really pay too much attention to bar band, seeing as they're background noise, but this band really caught my attention. I don't see why they're playing bars, a band of this caliber I would expect to see at weddings or big corporate events. First off, you can't help but be drawn in by the gorgeous blonde singer, and on top of that, she can actually sing! And the song choices were perfect, they cater to everyones ear. I would hire this band in a second if I owned my own company! 5 stars to them! can't wait to see them again

They should expect to see a good looking band who really enjoys what they do. We're always having a good time, enjoying every song we play. We will bring lights to set the mood, and play songs that leave you with that "i can't help but dance" feeling.
Between the 4 members, we have years of national and international playing experience, recording experience, and music diplomas. WE take what we do seriously, practice and executing an incredible night of music for our clients is highly important to us. Not everyone has the same taste in music, so we try our best to cater to everyone. We will try to learn anything that the listener wants to hear. We have a request line on our website, every request we get, we learn (within reason). We want everyone to walk away happy and tired from dancing to much!
We have our own PA system and lights. All we need is electrical outlets and people looking for a good time!
