Since it’s beginnings in 2007, Twang Ditty has been on a mission to keep old school country alive, honest and exciting. Led by vocalist Maria Nguyen, the lineup of Northern California musicians delivers an authentic homage to the Golden Age of country music - the 50s, 60s & 70s; a time when pure, heartfelt vocals and sparkling guitar licks defined the genre. From tearful ballads to boot stompin’ honkytonk, Twang Ditty covers the musical landscape from Nashville to Bakersfield and everywhere in between.
Twang Ditty are fantastic professionals: great musicians, terrific show people and awesome to work with. They're a great band for a wedding especially if you don't want a cheesey 'wedding band.' Our guests were tearing up the danced floor all night. We can't wait to hire them for another event!
Truly great musicianship, terrific enthusiasm and well chosen song list had everybody dancing and enjoying the show; and their incredibly talented and beautiful lead vocalist from Vietnam, stole more than just the show.
