The Chiltern Hillbillies are an experienced Country 4/5 piece band featuring guitars, vocal harmonies, harmonica, fiddle, drums and bass.
We play a diverse range of Country music including Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Elvis, The Eagles, Chuck Berry to more modern Country, and can play at any volume you wish with emphasis on professional sound quality. We can play at any event, party, festival, birthday, anniversary, wedding or promotion, and are happy to include any special requests, supply a caller, and even allow a guest to sing a song with us if desired.
We can be totally flexible playing wise on the day to suit timings and to fit in with any variation to the evening (or any other time) and if you wish, play other songs in the Country and Western genre to please those who aren't especially Country fans.
We provide all our own sound equipment, lighting for the band, and interval music if you wish. We also have public liability insurance. The live videos here were filmed at a rainy festival in the Midlands and at a wedding as a 5 piece - with others taken some time ago at American Speedfest at the Airstream stage at Brands Hatch, Kent, as a 4 piece at the time - all with just a mobile phone and no artificial enhancement.
Feel free to get in touch with any queries. You are welcome to meet and listen to us to see if we are the style of band you are looking for, or we can talk over the phone.
Our fees are not set in stone, so we would often be happy to discuss or negotiate.
