They call themselves "HIGH COUNTRY" and as of now, they're only playing locally. You should see the crowds they draw for our annual "BODOCK FESTIVAL". The courthouse square is blocked off -- yes, it's a small town---and everybody (young and old) dance in the street!! People come from miles around for this event. They do a MEAN Brooks & Dunn and the lead singer could pass for Ronnie Dunn or Vince Gill if you weren't looking.
Did I mention that they won SECOND PLACE at the June Jam competition a few years back??? (and VINCE GILL was one of the judges!!!)
I'm proud of our local guys and think they could compete with the best.
"My Maria" and "When I call your name" could only be sung better by Ronnie and Vince. Did I mention "When a Man Loves a Woman"???
When the band cuts loose on the EAGLES songs, the crowd really gets into it. What these guys can't play or sing can't be played
or sung!!!

While visiting Nashville in '97, some friends and I finally got up enough nerve to visit Printers Alley (it wasn't bad at all). We checked out the local clubs and while in Lonnie's Western Room, we heard a couple that sounded really 'special'. After speaking with them, we discovered they were a brother/sister act. It figured, because not too many non-family duo's have that kind of harmony. I'm really surprised that we have not heard them on the radio yet. We bought a tape and got them
to autograph it (while they were not-yet famous).
Let me add here, that we have done that before only to listen to the tape and find that the tape contained maybe one good song --- not with these two!! All of the tape was excellent. We listened to it all the way home and I've listened to it off and on ever since. I haven't seen nor heard of them since, and would really like to know if they've been 'discovered' yet.
If these two don't make it in Nashville, then something's wrong with the record exec's!!!
If you know anything about them, please e-mail me.
I'd like to be able to tell them how much I've enjoyed this tape!!
