Talented country musicians are hard to find these days. The era of the late eighties was a time when one could find a country music band that was both innovative and appealing. Such artists laid down the foundation for future popular music. They created spectacular harmonies with incredible use of the guitar instrument. If you have a liking for music that blends the genres of folk and country with banjos and bluegrass, then all you need to do is buy your Desert Rose Band tickets.
You will get the opportunity to listen to the hit tunes that you grew up dancing and singing to. These include songs like One Step Forward. The single was the third track on the band's first album that reached #2 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart. Their first album, titled The Desert Rose Band was released on the 2nd of June, 1987. The album managed to reach #24 on the Country Music Albums chart. Their music was consistent and greatly loyal to country music heritage.
Desert Rose Band was formed in 1985 by Chris Hillman with Herb Pederson and John Jorgenson. The original band consisted of Herb Pederson as singer, with lead guitarist John Jorgenson, bass guitarist Bill Bryson, Jay Dee Maness as a pedal steel guitarist and Steve Duncan on drums. For Chris Hillman, Desert Rose Band gave him an opportunity to finally step out of the shadows of other great artists, and make an identity of his own. The band came out with its first single, Ashes of Love in 1986. This was a cover of Johnnie & Jack's Ashes to Love. The single steadily climbed the charts of Country Music and eventually made its way into the top Thirty. The band reigned over the country music charts from 1985 to 1993 with twelve consecutive hits. They received the award for 'Band of the Year.' Other than that, John Jorgenson, Steve Duncan, Bill Bryson and Jay Dee Manees were presented with several 'Instrumentalists of the Year' awards.
The band has revolutionized the country genre and has a loyal fan following ever since. The group is highly respected among other musicians of the industry. It has performed to an audience that included names like Stephen Stills, Rose Maddox, Bruce Hornsby, Bernie Leadon and Elton John. Elton John is a huge fan of Chris Hillman and has great admiration for his works/. The music artists released five high quality country albums that produced twelve major hits.
After much success the group disbanded in 1994, but in 2010 the original members of Desert Rose Band reunited for a tour. Today, like many from the era between 1985 till 1991, we have forgotten the Desert Rose Band. The Desert Rose Band was at its peak of success during this time. Nowadays country radio has been turned into a dreary amalgamation of rock, rap and pop hits based on commercially driven formulas that lack originality and inspiration. So buy Desert Rose Band tickets and relive the days when the band ruled the country music charts.
