Unexpected great afternoon

I wasn’t sure what to expect as my sister-in-law organized our outing. What an amazing show, and venue. I wasn’t expecting such a fun afternoon with such great talent all the way from Nashville and Toronto. Thank you Scotty

Unforgettable Night of Music with Backyard Music Co.

I recently had the pleasure of attending a concert by Backyard Music Co. at Crescent Hill Acres near Sarnia Ontario, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. The intimate setting allowed for a close connection between the artists and the audience, creating a magical atmosphere that enhanced the music. The sound quality was superb, allowing every note and lyric to shine.
What set this concert apart was the Nashville in the round style, where each artist took turns sharing their songs and stories. It was fascinating to hear the personal anecdotes behind the music, adding a deeper layer of meaning to the performances. Despite a hiccup with one artist being late due to a car accident, the event host, Scotty James, stepped in and delivered a remarkable performance, going above and beyond to ensure that the audience had a fantastic time.
In the end, I was treated to the music of not just three, but four talented artists, each bringing their own unique style and energy to the stage. Backyard Music Co. has truly created something special with their concerts, and I can’t wait to attend another event in the future. If you’re a music lover looking for an unforgettable live music experience, I highly recommend checking out Backyard Music Co.

Amazing Experience!!

I attended an event at Crescent Hill Acres with several friends. I cannot say enough about how absolutely amazing the whole evening was! The venue was intimate and the performers were so talented and interesting with the stories that they told. Such a unique experience. The signature drinks were a nice touch as well!

What a fantastic evening listening to the stories and songs of these three amazing entertainers!

What a wonderful Valentine's evening at Marchand Ranch! We truly enjoyed the beautiful venue and the Nashville artists were absolutely amazing! It was my first time attending an event like this and it was such an intimate experience to hear the songs and stories from some of Nashville's best song writers, up front and personal. Thank you for bringing your beautiful music to our area. We look forward to having you return.

Fabulous Singer/Songwriter Show

Living in the mountains in southern Colorado, we don't often get to experience live music and only 15 minutes from our house. But, we were treated to an intimate concert at the Marchand Ranch Event Center featuring Myron Elkins and Billy Gunther. Great music and wonderful venue. Thank you, Backyard Music Co.!!

Great Evening of Songs and Stories.

Beautiful intimate venue. Not a bad seat in the house! The fireplace was roaring and the twinkling lights were dazzling. Drinks were awesome and unique, the Nashville Mule was excellent. The performers were fabulous with their banter and stories between the songs. We loved it so much we bought tickets for the next “session” in March. Go you will not be disappointed.

What a wonderful night !

We didn’t know what to expect when we first bought tickets. We love country music and thought it would be fun. The venue, the event organization, the food and the musicians were all amazing. We already have our tickets to the next event in March. And kudos to Scotty who is a great musician in his own right !

A night to remember :-)

We had an incredible experience at the February 1st event at the beautiful Wildflowers Farm. The night featured the remarkable talents of Nashville’s Mark Taylor, Dan Harrison, and Ontario’s own TJ Simpson and Scotty James.

It was a beautiful, intimate, Nashville-style singer’s circle, where each artist shared the stories behind their lyrics and co-writes, played their songs and off of one another.

A shared moment of musical storytelling, community, and connection —here’s hoping more of these nights come our way soon!

Highly recommend a backyard music co experience

This was our first backyard music co experience and we loved it! We are Canadians living in Costa Rica so it was extra special to see some Canadian emerging artists perform in the beautiful tropics. I'd definitely recommend this experience for a party or gathering, or even at a bar/restaurant. Great experience and sweet music!

Music Meets Inspiration

Fantastic event! Super talented up and coming musicians. An unassuming and unique experience that will leave your guests energized and inspired. Scotty, Blue Otis and Billy Gunther are massive talents. Remember these names: they’ll be in the lights soon. It was an honour to share in this evening of musical genius.

Wildflowers Farm loved the energy !

I can’t say enough about the incredible experience of working with Backyard Music Company. The talent and energy they brought to the event were nothing short of electric. From the moment the music began, the room was alive with palpable excitement, connection, and joy.

Their professionalism, artistry, and ability to create such a vibrant atmosphere are unmatched. It was truly a night to remember, and I’m so grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with such talented individuals.

This event has inspired me to offer more experiences like this in the future. I can’t wait to bring more unforgettable nights of music, energy, and connection to our community. Thank you, Backyard Music Company, for setting the bar so high and leaving us all wanting more!
