The Country Wranglers Dance Band
Ive worked in this band for going on 9 years and the band has been an active band for 25 years.
The band has gained and lost many members but at present time there are 5 of us: Lead Guitar/Trumpet/Valve Trombone/Lead and Harmony vocals, Steel Guitar/Lead and Harmony Vocals, Fiddle/Lead vocals, Bass Guitar/Lead and Harmony Vocals and then there's me...Drums/Lead and Harmony Vocals.
We play a good mix of Traditional country, Big Band Swing, Western Swing, Cajun Zydeco, Blues and 50s and early 60s rock and some top 40 Country.
We work 2 nights a week at a Ballroom with No Smoking and No Alcohol in the building from 7 pm till 10 pm and then every other friday we work out of town at similar situations. The pay is excellent and the longevity is also excellent.
