“I have seen and heard many bands over the past fifteen years as a DJ on
radio, and in nightclubs. In all that time, I have seen a very select few that
brings something more to the stage than just note perfect cover tunes. Boggy
Creek is one of those bands. Sure, they do a fantastic job with the covers, but
they also put there own spin on them and make them their own. Nothing crazy,
just enough to know when you hear a cover, you know your hearing Boggy Creeks
version. Add to the mix, that Boggy Creeks original music is as good as anything
you hear on contemporary Country Radio these days. They give you the best of
both worlds.
Craig's vocals, paired together, with the tight musicians that complete the
band, you now have a definite musical force on stage that demands to be heard!
The single most important element that Boggy Creek brings to their shows can be
summed up in one word: FUN. They genuinely enjoy working together, and
performing for the crowd. If you go to a show in the near future, don’t be
surprised if you suddenly find yourself onstage with the band! If you haven’t
seen or heard Boggy Creek, then you are missing out on one of the best shows in
town!”

"Last
night I had the pleasure of watching a local band called Boggy Creek play at
Benchwarmers in Clermont, FL. At 9:30 they took the stage and opened with
various country songs. The crowd was very enthusiastic and enjoyed the music.
The band members are very passionate about their music. On various songs the
crowd was participating in several lines dances. It was a pleasure to the crowd
having a great time. The members have great chemistry, as they love to
laugh and joke among themselves and the crowd. On many occasions I would see the
staff getting into the music and helping the crowd participate in the various
dances.
I believe this band has great potential. It would be great to see them come back
and play again. I'm sure the crowd would welcome them back. This band has also
created several of their own original songs. They have a magical and passionate
feel to them. Boggy Creek has great focus and a wonderful drive. A must see
show."

"Unique, energetic, and enthused is only scratching the surface of Boggy
Creek. Their music sounds genuine and exciting all at once. Bringing out the
boots and cowboy hats, it's hard not to like this gang even if you’re not into
country music. Their music is so catchy and will have you tapping your feet
right along to the rhythm; before you even know it you will be line dancing with
all fans! Boggy Creek array of diverse songs will please a variety of listeners
everywhere."
