Still plenty of opportunity to play at the country clubs and restaurants and parties for social clubs. Remember please that many of the people playing in those venues have been here for years and have established audiences, so it can be hard to break in. But if you are willing to be on the less expensive side as you start out, and build up your own audience, you can succeed. I have some experience with this having been one of the original members of 3 for the Road, although I no longer perform with them. We also had a very hard working booking manager who really helped us get going, and her efforts opened a lot of doors. Good luck!

It seems that most of the people singing to tracks have moved to the restaurants and country clubs Bill. However I did see Carol Ann at one of the squares a few weeks ago.
