The Country Gentlemen Tribute Band, fronted by long time Gentlemen bassist Bill Yates, has announced Larry Kirk as their new bass player. Larry will also share in vocal duties with the band.
Bill no longer plays bass on stage, serving as MC and lead vocalist. The Tribute Band show includes classic songs from the Country Gentlemen repertoire, presented with Bill’s trademark wit.
In addition to Bill and Larry, the band features Rick Briggs on banjo, Mike Phipps on guitar, Dave Propst on mandolin, and Mark Clifton on reso-guitar.
Bill and the guys have just started their 2014 season. You can find all their show dates online.
