Get ready to enjoy the musical style of the
up-and-coming country group, The Wild West Band. The musical
quintet will perform during the Moonlight Madness Sale on
Friday, June 26, at the 2009 Cowboy Way Trading Post hosted
by the Appaloosa Horse Club (ApHC) in Jackson, Mississippi.
This concert event is free and open to the public—fans of
honky-tonk tunes or heartfelt country ballads are guaranteed
to enjoy The Wild West Band!
The Wild West Band has experienced recent success with their
debut album, “Home Is Where The Hurt Is.” The album hit home
with many country music listeners, quickly making it a success.
The Wild West Band was rewarded in early 2009 when they signed
with Nashville-based record company Stardust Records. Songs
off their CD are being played on "Country Legends in
the Making," a syndicated radio program that reaches
more than 400 AM/FM stations throughout the world. The Wild
West Band also has a song featured on the latest Stardust
Records compilation album, which is being distributed to thousands
of radio stations around the world, and is getting airplay
on the Nashville Broadcasting Radio Network.
ApHC exhibitors and members may see a familiar face or two
in The Wild West Band: Amy Steed, a long-time ApHC member
from Cross Plains, Tenn., is one of the lead vocalists, and
former ApHC member Glenn Steed of Springfield, Tenn., plays
bass. The Wild West Band would not be what it is today without
Darryl Douglas, songwriter, lead vocalist and lead guitar;
Tim Glassford, percussion and backup vocals; and Kevin Douglas,
rhythm guitar and backup vocals.
The ApHC is thrilled to have The Wild West Band perform at
the Moonlight Madness Sale, so mark your calendars and join
us on Friday, June 26, at 10 p.m. at the Trade Mart on the
Mississippi State Fairgrounds in Jackson.
The 2009 Cowboy Way Trading Post is being held in conjunction
with the 62nd National Appaloosa Show & 2009 World Championship
Appaloosa Youth Show, from June 22 to July 4, at the Mississippi
State Fairgrounds.
