AMERICAN MADE BI0
n
1984, a group of musicians got together to form a band, and within
two weeks, entered the Marlboro Talent Roundup in Southern California.
They did not win, but vowed to try again next year. In the meantime,
they continued to perform in clubs, honing their craft, and quickly
becoming a favorite with fans around the area. In 1985, the group
competed again in the Roundup, won first place, then appeared
in concert with Merle Haggard, George Strait, and Alabama at
the LA Forum, and sang the National Anthem at a Lakers Game.
Not too shabby a start for AMERICAN MADE!! In the 20 years since
then, it's been quite a ride--the group has appeared at Disneyland,
Disney World, Knott's Berry Farm, in casinos in Las Vegas, Reno,
Tahoe, and Laughlin, as well as at fairs, rodeos, concerts, nightclubs,
and special events throughout the West. Actor Dennis Weaver chose
AMERICAN MADE as his band when he took his country music show
on the road, touring for two seasons and appearing on TNN and
Canadian television. The group was also invited to perform at
Dennis & Gerry Weaver's 50th wedding
anniversary celebration in Colorado.
