Playing country classics and modern rock n’ roll two nights this week!

New Live Oak band Silverado will take the stage at Spirit of the Suwannee this weekend

This weekend is your chance to listen to a new Suwannee County band, William Scott and Silverado. This four-piece band will be playing two nights this weekend, Friday and Saturday Jan. 9-10, at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park’s Music Hall.

Playing a variety of modern and classic country, Silverado also plays classic and modern rock n’ roll.

The band members are William Scott, lead vocals and rhythm guitar; Rick Randlett, lead guitar and vocals; Ricky Mullins, bass and vocals and Jamie Ganote, percussion and vocals.

The brainchild of Scott and Ganote, the band formed in 2008. Scott and Ganote wanted to start fresh after a stint with another band and soon found former band mate Mullins was available. Before long, well established musician Randlett, who holds a degree in music education, was onboard to round out Silverado.

The band has a unique sound due to Scott’s drive to be different after years of playing in various bands. The band is seasoned in tear jerkers, hard rock and classic and modern country and can keep you on the dance floor or singing along with songs you all know. You can expect the unexpected from this new band, along with lots of music you already know! You never know what to expect!

Doors open to the Music Hall at 6 p.m., shows begin at 7 p.m. Admission is free Friday night, $5 per person Saturday night. As always, delicious, mouthwatering delicacies are available from the SOS Café and Restaurant menu along with your favorite beverages at regular prices.

It’s a new year with new opportunities for fun and great food at the Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park. Come on out this Friday and Saturday nights, bring your sweetie and have a grand time! Ya‘ll come on out now, you hear!
