Phone 417-743-2474
Cell 417-840-9092
A classic country music show with much comedy in the dialogue between my wife and I. Most of it is related to the RV world in some way. We do a variety of songs that the over 50 audience can relate to and enjoy, so, for lack of a better term, we call it country, Dixieland and standard cover tunes. Steel guitar is my main instrument, but I do play several others too. Guitar, tenor banjo, bluegrass banjo, accordion, etc. For the most part we are a four piece show with Opal as the featured singer (she's truly a great). We also enjoy harmonies 2,3, and sometimes 4 parts.
