About
Joeys country is a band for hire in Bonnells Bay, NSW.
It's a straight country show, no detours. Slim Dusty, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash and Glen Campbell, plus a list running well past 200 songs, so requests are rarely a problem and a custom list for a wedding or a birthday is easy enough. Thirty five years in the industry sits behind it, and the sound and lighting gear is new. Hotels, clubs, festivals and retirement villages, with lunchtime shows where families can bring the kids. Expect singalongs and crowd verses, at a volume where you can still hear the person next to you. Shows run from one hour to four. He needs an hour before start time and an undercover area, and he can supply power with notice.
The show
Everyone knows the songs. That's the trick with a country show like this, and it's why the room ends up singing the crowd verses back at him without much encouragement. There's dancing, there's singing along, and the volume sits at a level where you can still talk to the person beside you, which matters more than people think at a lunchtime show. Sound and lighting gear is proper, and the approach to your venue or event is straightforward and professional.
On the day
He needs to get in at least an hour before the show starts, and he needs an undercover area to play in. If power is going to be a problem where you are, tell him when you book and he can bring his own.
Performance options
You are not renting anything separately here. Joeys country arrives with the full rig, sound and lighting both, and runs the show off his own gear from start to finish. Show length is flexible: anywhere from a single hour up to four, so a lunchtime set at a club and a long night at a hotel are equally normal bookings. Tell him what shape the day takes and he will fit the sets around it.
