While you’re here, we ask that you please take a moment to check out some of the brief information below regarding The Killer Hayseeds. They are a great band to have on our site, and we are proud to have them listed!
The Killer Hayseeds have been one of the top-drawing country bands in the Midwest for over 20 years. The large and loyal following the band has created is a true testament to their longevity and their way of connecting with their fans on and off the stage.
In late summer of 2011, founding member Todd Ernster set out on a quest to find the finest entertainers and musicians that would best reflect the high-caliber professional show that made the band its reputation and garnered it’s large fan base since day one. A grueling audition schedule was set in motion, with players both locally and nationally expressing interest in performing in The Killer Hayseeds. Although the search was difficult, the selection process produced one of the finest lineups of young musicians and entertainers ever seen in the Twin Cities.
In addition, Todd wanted to offer entertainment buyers something more than they were getting for the entertainment dollar… thus the Amped Up concept was born! The Killer Hayseeds Amped Up is a high energy spectacle playing the top current, and most requested country hits packaged into two – 105 minute shows! That’s correct, two high energy non stop country shows totaling 210 total minutes of music with only one 30 minute break!
The reasoning behind this concept is simple: Give the entertainment purchaser more for their money, at the same time by only taking one normal length break, keep the customers and fans dancing and partying until the end of the night. The two long sets are not only successful, but have been received extremely well by venues as diverse as fairs, festivals, casinos, nightclubs, and the concert stage!
