“The Knotty Pines were the perfect band for our fundraising event! Crisp voices, excellent instrumentals, and amazing energy. They had the perfect balance of being entertaining without detracting from the purpose of the event or being distracting. They played a role in helping us set the tone to raise a lot of money that night, and I couldn’t recommend them more!” – Anthony Nelson, Glacier Institute
“I hate live music at restaurant bars…except for you guys! Wow, that was a fantastic show!” -OUR FIRST FAN
