Country bands are usually hired for 3-hour engagements, but they can be flexible to cater to shorter events as needed. For instance, they might send only a guitarist and vocalist for a 30-minute performance instead of the entire band. For more extended events, country bands typically perform in 30u201345-minute sets, taking 5u201315-minute breaks between each group. To ensure your guests remain engaged and entertained during these breaks, consider arranging for an emcee or DJ to fill the gaps in the live music.
