I'm country recording artist Mark Austin. I am looking to put a band together with musicians who want to play and perform original country music. I write and perform my own brand of original country music. I have signed an independent record deal n recorded my first album "Whole Lot of Country". I also have written the material for my next project. I am willing to do some cover songs as long as other musicians are willing to do my originals. I am looking for musicians from the Southwest Pa. and Morgantown/Fairmont and surrounding areas. I tend to practice several times a week but will only require the band members to get together at least once a week. If the band members chose to practice more than once a week thats ok too. I am sorry but at this time I have to retract my wanting to put a band together due to being in the middle of moving. I may be available in the near future. Will let y'all know.
