Greetings! “We Love our Country!” July 1, 2009 Happy Golden Wedding Anniversary to Roy & Bert!!! Wow, what a summer! This Thursday, July 2nd, we play at Storey Square in Uniontown as part of their summer concert series. Then on Saturday the 4th, we return to the Hopwood AMVETS for what is always a great night of dancing. Hope to see you at one of these events. Special Programming Note: On Saturday, July 25th, we’ll be at the Mount Pleasant YMCA as part of the Relay for Life celebration. We’ll be there at 3:00 PM for an hour before we move on to our scheduled performance at the Lazy Acres Campground. The rest of the summer promises to be quite busy. Please return often to this website to keep current with our schedule. Hope to see you sometime this summer at one of these many events. What sets the High Ryder band apart from other bands? Well, we’re not pretty (obviously) and we’re not young (unfortunately). We don’t have screaming teenagers hanging on our every word. We don’t put on fancy stage shows (Roy refuses to climb on anything while he plays the fiddle.) We’re not into pyrotechnics or laser shows. We don’t blast out eardrums with super-powerful electronic gear. What we do offer is music, resulting from a combined experience of more than 200 years. While most of our contemporaries have retired and quit the music business, we plug away, looking for that audience appreciation of the music we bring with us. We’re definitely not in it for the money. Dreams of stardom and worldwide fame faded away with the start of families and non-musical careers. As long as the audiences like what we’re doing - we’ll keep doing it. And, as Roy puts it, we do have something that most bands don't - grandchildren. . We really appreciate our fans - new and old - and hope to meet more of you in the future. Stay tuned!! Hope to see you all real soon. The High Ryder Band |
