HOEDOWN BAND - think bush dance meets rockin’ country...
- Categories:
- General info
- The award winning alt.country sound of the Heywood Moore Hoedown Band is a tight amalgam of raunchy guitar and fiddle driven roots music, rich vocal harmonies and a super tight rhythm section that bridges the gap between country and Australian bush music. The band’s past gig list includes festivals such as the Tamworth, Fairbridge and National Festivals in Australia and Guilfest, Broadstairs, Sidmouth and the East Barnet Festival in London, as well as large charity events such as Coleen Nolan’s Wild West Party at Old Trafford Cricket Ground. As well as a great concert set the band can do a barn / bush set which mixes simple called dances with upbeat country, and original songs, for those who want to bop about freeform. Lead singer Dawn is a fantastic caller who gets down on the dance floor with the audience and lead guitarist and band leader Brian has over three decades playing, and arranging, dance tunes that get the audience bouncing about to the music. Unlike many ‘electric’ bush dance bands, the Hoedown Band sound is more than just an acoustic folk band grafted onto a pub-rock rhythm section. The music has been developed as true fusion of the best of traditional and modern dance rhythms. And we don't stop the music every five minutes; we keep a groove going to maintain the atmosphere to help the dancers during the walk-throughs.
