BIG NEWS!!

The band is back in the studio working on a new album.  Stay tuned for the latest updates on the album's progress.   Can't wait for the finished project.

You can catch us Sunday afternoons at Jim's Tavern in Greencastle from 4:00 to 8:00 PM.  This Sunday, April 3rd, we will be celebrating one year of singing and partying at Jim's Tavern.  Many surprises are in store.  Hope you can make it!!

We hope you can come out to the benefit for the McVeytown Fire Company on June 26 - doors open at 4:00 pm.  We are doing the benefit to support the emergency personnel that assisted Jim at his accident at the end of February. While Jim was traveling home from a gig at the Enola Legion in the early hours of Sunday morning on Route 22, he collided with a drunk driver with no headlights on on his car.  Jim was uninjured but his truck was demolished (below) and most of our music equipment was destroyed.  The quick response of the fire company and the assistance they provided means a great deal to us and for that reason, we offered to perform a concert to benefit those very special people.  Great food, raffle and prize drawings, and a few surprises are in store. We hope you can be there to show your support to the McVeytown Fire Company.

We had a great time at the Wheeling Jamboree in March.  Check out our show at the link below.

CD Release

Well, as many of you know, Make Mine Country has been in the studio recording our first album.  The new discs were shipped in mid-December. The first of four CD release parties was held on December 18 at the Shade Mountain Restaurant in Middleburg.  It was great to see our friends and fans there.  The second CD release party was scheduled for December 19 at the Dutch Country Inn near Reedsville, but was postponed due to bad weather.  Check the website for updates on the rescheduled release party at Reedsville as well as the CD release parties in Halifax and Huntingdon.

We hope to see you at an upcoming party!!
