Country musicians to form a band
 
Wondering if there are any country musicians out here who would want to get together to form a small band? Thinking along the lines of more contempory country/rockin country versus classic country. Kenny Chesney, Alan Jackson, Zach Brown Band style music with occasional taste of The Eagles or other country/rock crossover bands.

Envisioning a four to five piece group, small enough footprint to easily play rec center and the Squares. More acoustic/electric feel than typical very loud rock sound. Guitars, bass, drum and either fiddle/banjo/pedal steel or best of all someone who can play multiple instruments and has vocal talent as well.

Chime in with any interest and specifics of musical ability, vocal ability and willingness to get together on regular basis to play and rehearse. Or you can email me at sixstringmusic at yahoo dot com. There is nothing firm yet, just exploring to see if there is any real interest and talent out there not being exercised.

Interested. Acoustical and Electric Guitar player. Played drums before but no set now. Have plenty of guitars. Play mostly country and southern rock. Eagles, Haggard, Waylon, Skynyrd, Blackberry Smoke, etc. Was looking before for a group of people who wanted to sit around and jam some, possibly open to playing on a regular basis. I'll follow this post to see what happens.

Thanks Kent, will get back to you!

You boys listed a lot of my favorite artists.

Kent Brown 06-02-2016 09:21 AM

Let's plan a date! Reverserevolution180@ gmail.com just tell me when and where.

I just saw this thread. I suggest you check out some of the country jam groups around TV. I go to one on Tues. at Hibiscus, but there are several others. Members of one country band attend and another group of musicians from these groups played at Laurel Manor last weekend.

I play lead and rhythm guitar and am always interested in opportunities to play. I know a lot of country songs, but Alan Jackson and Merle are my favorites.

Thanks for the suggestions!

Very interested in this opportunity. Worked with many bands playing many styles including country. Villager since 2014 interested in gigs in TV. Available any time and ready to go. (Own a cowboy hat :) )

69Ludwigs 07-09-2016 05:24 PM

Also, got a villager buddy who is a country singer and guitarist who might be interested

Just moved to The Villages, I play bass and sing both lead and back up. Would love to see about getting a country band together.

Responding about Country Band
 
No idea how this works. How do we make contact to see who else is interested. I play bass and sing lead as well as harmony. Really looking to get a band together.
