Welcome, Cortney Alber

BCR has gone through some changes in the last couple of months, as some of you may already know. Our female lead singer, Mary, is no longer in the band. We wish her the best of luck with her musical endeavors in the future. We have added another female vocalist, Cortney Alber. She has been a great addition to the band. So far, things have been going great. We have already learned a ton of new material and are in the process of learning more. We are also starting to write more original material! We're very excited about where this is going! This weekend, we are playing at a couple of new venues. Thursday night, we are at Bub City at 435 N. Clark St. in Chicago. From there, Cortney, Kyle and Brian will be heading to Tennessee to spend the weekend and to play at The Wanted Saloon in Dixon, TN Saturday night. Keep checking our "Events" tab to see where we will be playing next. We hope to see y'all soon!

Nashville Trip

We had an absolute blast performing at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville! What an honor to compete in the Battle for the Saddle! Unfortunately, we did not advance, but it was still an unbelievable experience! Thank you to all the people that made the trip down there, the people that watched us on our live stream, and to the Wildhorse Saloon for giving us this chance!

BCR in Nashville!!!

Back Country Roads has been fortunate enough to be asked to play at the "Battle for the Saddle" at the Wildhorse Saloon in Nashville, TN! There are 4 preliminary rounds (BCR competes on Wednesday, April 25). The 4 winners from each round will then be competing on May 29 for a chance to win $2,500, a performance during CMA week, and more importantly, a 1-year contract with Wildhorse Saloon as one of their house bands! This is a huge honor! We would love to see as many people make the trip as possible! Thank you for all of your support! We could never have done this without you!
