Hi there, let me introduce to you my band, "The Moonshiners". We are based in Montreal, Canada and we are currently working on an upcoming album.
We subscribed to a contest for some tv show here. If ever we win, it would help a lot for the financing of the album. So, I am asking for your help here
Please go to this link, watch our video, and rate 5 stars. We are very proud of that song, so there a chance you'd like it too.

If ever, for some reason, you can't see the video, please let me know. Thanks guys.

Let's not rush to judgement. I just found that it might be my computer. It has been giving me problems of late and I found I could not download others to. Just wanted to let you know that your program may be just fine.

Great song and sound! Very Canadian sounding to my ears. You would be perfect for the AMA festival in Nashville. As always though, the steel could have been turned up a bit in the mix
Good luck!

Very good! I enjoyed it. I do agree that the steel could be more in the mix but tasty playing. Great harmonies. Nice tune - simple but well balanced and great musicians. I hope you win the competition!!

Yeah, I could hardly deny their influence (and Rick Haworth's too). The only psg lesson I ever took so far was with Sylvain, Monster player !
