We play a variety of music.... Traditional Country, Bluegrass and Gospel. Vivian Catherson has composed numerous of the original songs. Buggy Whipp has performed at the Minnesota Bluegrass and Old Time Music Association (MBOTMA) Winter Bluegrass Weekend in 2005-2008, the MBOTMA Summer Bluegrass Festivals in 2005-2007. In August 2004 Buggy Whipp won 1st place in the open division at the Kanabec County Fair and then received 2nd place on their night at the state fair level. They have also performed for The State of MN Sesquicentennial Celebration & many community functions including: East Bethel Booster Days, Pancake Breakfasts, several area gospel festivals and others too numerous to mention.
