Mesquite Country Band played at JohnE’s Friday night. A good band, they really got into their groove after the break, those that left missed a lot of great music. They did one of the best Mustang Sally’s I have heard.

You can see their schedule at here or on the left by clicking on their name.

Tom Ryan’s

I have heard from more than one source that this is a great place to dance. They have live music on Thursdays (Ladies night), Fridays, and Saturdays. Dancing starts at 9:30pm.
They are located at the NW corner of Arizona Ave and Warner in Chandler (map).
I have not been able to find a calendar, I know that Mogollon is playing next Saturday. You can check out their MySpace page here.

Chad Freeman and the Redline Band

They tell it better than I do: 
“Chad Freeman and Redline is a cover band based in the deserts of Arizona. The diversity of these musicians is second-to-none as their mix is almost impossible to classify. With versatility and a broad song list, CF and Redline can adapt to fit nearly any situation. From honky-tonkin to hard-rockin, these guys put on one helluva show!!! “
You can read more about them on their MySpace page or their website at chadfreemanredline.com

Reign-N-Country

Speaking of Reign-N-Country, check out their latest schedule in the band list on the left. Their music is very upbeat and powerful. Melody has done a great job of putting together an excellent set of musicians. They were really great last night at JohnE’s, especially the second half. This is a band you will want to dance to.

Their website is working again and you can check it out at www.reign-n-country.com.
