One Man "Classic Country & Oldies Rock" Dance Band
2026 marks my 50th year as a professional musician and singer. Entertaining the Senior community during the last few years has been an absolute pleasure and I hope to continue for many more years.
Thank You!!! I play country music from the 1950's to the early 2000's. A handful of more modern ones too. Oldies pop rock from the 1950's to the 1980's plus a few old standards from the likes of Frank Sinatra, Bobby Darin, Dean Martin etc....Live music in the key of FUN!!! A true musical gem, offering a unique blend of nostalgia and toe-tapping fun.

January 21, 2024Dave Young was very accommodating in us picking the right songs to play. We had a Western theme event and his songs and voice was very good. He showed up on time and was very approachable and entertained our group of 125. We had a dance at the same time. His acoustics sound system was very good considering we were is a large ballroom.
Several guests were asking how we reserved him through Gig Salad and his fees.
Would definitely recommend him.

Thanks Dan, You and your family were a joy and the weather and scenery were absolutely fantastic. Thanks again for having me at your reunion.

Gig length: 45 - 180 minutes
With more than 40 years experience as a professional musician you can expect professionalism from the day you contact me to the end of the gig. After that we will always try to maintain an ongoing and lasting professional relationship. I LOVE REPEAT BUSINESS.
I will travel as far as 250 miles or even more if necessary but I do prefer to stay within 60

I am available for restaurants, clubs, public events, corporate events, and organizational events.
Dave Young’s One Man Dance Band is your #1 alternative to a full dance band. Dave plays music from Frank Sinatra to The Eagles and Green Day and Ernest Tubb to George Straight. He does all the music a full band does, and does it complete with full instrumentation and backup vocals.
Dave has been a professional lead guitarist and vocalist for most of his life (that was his only job & still is). He plays all the guitar parts live. He sometimes even plays the piano.
Playing music as a One Man Band seems to work best for him because he likes so many different types of music and artists. As a One Man Band Dave plays some of the best music from the 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s, 80’s and some from the 90’s. He couldn’t do that with the bands because the members didn't know all the songs. Since he is mainly a guitarist he can even throw in some of his favorite guitar instrumentals once in a while.
Dave’s set up is quite high tech and lets him sound like the bands whose songs he’s playing. He also uses wireless devices so he can sing and play while interacting with the audience. All this makes for a great sound and is so much fun.
Dave's specialty is country music from the 50's through the 2000's from artists like Hank Williams, Ernest Tubb to Brooks and Dunn, Alabama, Alan Jackson and many more. I also do Oldies Rock & Roll
Dave doesn't have a solid song list but he does say that he knows probably around 400 songs and is always adding more. He's always willing to learn special songs for a special events.
