Area country band still strong at 500th show

A Delaware County country band celebrated its 500th show Sunday by playing for a packed house at the Oneonta Elks Lodge.


COUNTRY EXPRESS is based in Delaware County, N.Y. and is known for its classic country sound, which includes songs of some of the all time greats like Patsy Cline, Merle Haggard, Tammy Wynette, Hank Williams, and many, many others, plus sounds from newer country artists like Faith Hill and George Strait.

Country Express will play for virtually any type of get together you might be planning, big or small, and we are proud of our reputation as the best country band to dance to in New York's southern tier. We will even throw in some square dances if you want.

Country Express had a busy schedule last year  playing in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Therefore we request that you contact us as soon as possible to schedule your event for 2012. We hope to have a great year, so check back for schedule updates!

Country Express has kept its pricing competitive because we enjoy playing, and we will travel any reasonable distance while maintaining standard pricing.
