Saddle Up Band 8:00 p.m.-dark

Saddle Up…this band’s name cannot be any more descriptive in the style of music it represents.

It all began with front man and lead singer Mike Garris, and his quest to find the perfect combination of professional musicians for the band. Mike’s passion, dedication and determination to find the best of the best lead him to drummer Jim Spillar, rhythm guitarist Gary Hill, lead guitarist Jay Pheifer, bassiest Bob Lunieski, and Jay Casper on keys.

 These 5 individuals create a unique style of country with rock-like edge. Music lovers from both country and rock n’ roll genres enjoy and appreciate the sounds of Saddle Up.
