The Prescott Playboys, founded in 2001, have taken center stage at many events and functions to play their special brand of Country and Western Swing music. Each of the musicians grew up playing and singing this traditional style of music from the 40s, 50s, and 60s.

All the members of the Prescott Playboys bring their special talents, charm and charisma to each performance making it a very memorable experience. The Prescott Playboys have performed in Prescott Arizona at The Elks Opera House, Sharlot Hall Museum and at the Courthouse Square Plaza. Additionally, audiences have experienced their style of music at many performances and venues both locally and regionally.

The Prescott Playboys have been booked as “one of the three hottest traditional & Western Swing bands from the southwest region” during the two-day “The Tribute to Western Swing Music” held in Tucson, Arizona.

The latest version of the Playboys has just come together with our new drummer Bobby Parks. We also have a 11 year old Fiddler that plays with us when we play locally. His name is Bix Glidden and with the tutoring of Ray Gardner he is getting to know all of the great fiddle tunes. I finely have a true Western Swing sound that I have been looking for since I made the first Tribute CD in 2000.
