We are looking to add to our 4pc pro touring band (east coast primarily) 

we perform originals and covers and perform 2/3 times a month mostly in the PA,MD,VA,WV,DE areas but do also perform in tennesssee and other states. Most shows for 2017 are being booked on Saturdays which will be mostly showcase sets of 90 mins . Some will be 2-4hr shows also. 

Send a list of all country , southern rock songs you perform well. (20 song list please) to get an idea of where you are as a performer in regards to our sets 

thanks! Hope to work someone in soon.

Hello, C.J. Young here, I have been performing most of my adult life. Your ad sounds exactly what I am looking for, As a guitarist, I've been told by many my rhythmic style and consistent timing are my strong points with a group/band setting.

Your request for a 20 song "demo knowledge" would only be a tip of the ice burg. Besides the 100 or so tunes I do lead vocals on, there are hundreds of country and R n R songs from 60's thru 80's  that I accompany with harmonies were applicable. To be honest, I am not an encyclopedia of Southern Rock, besides the Top 40 commercial releases from Skynyrd,, M.Tucker,  C.Daniels, Outlaws, etc. I really like that genre, just never learned a whole lot of one group.

I am usually not one to "toot my own horn" so you probably have many questions for me. I phone call, and/or meet and greet is probably the best way.

Weekday evening and weekend rehearsals are no problem, My equipment is top notch. Besides acoustics, I also have electrics, depending on what the song calls for, or sounds best with. I also play harmonica, whenever applicable if requested for particular tunes.

Call me, lets try this out.
