  • About the Eli Young Band the Eli Young Band’S Music Has All the Hallmarks of Youth: Passion, Energy, Excitement
    About The Eli Young Band The Eli Young Band’s music has all the hallmarks of youth: passion, energy, excitement. The band’s story is the definition of commitment: years spent honing its sound while building up to their first national album launch. The band combined a range of elements—vocalist Mike Eli’s ingratiating resonance, guitarist James Young’s elastic bag of sounds, bass player Jon Jones’ inventive foundation and drummer Chris Thompson’s energetic propulsion—to create a 12-song CD that paints even the difficult turns in life with an underlying optimism. “That’s been a theme through a lot of our music,” Jones observes. “It might be raining today, but it might be sunny tomorrow, so it’s worth sticking around for.” Sticking around is a major tenet of the Eli Young Band. The eight years of lugging equipment to small Texas clubs, of losing day jobs because their music held priority, of saying goodbye to relationships torn by their weekend travels, only solidified their dedication. The four weren’t sure initially what they had or where they were bound. But they knew they needed to keep pushing forward, that there was something special in their boundless mix of modern country and solid roots- rock inspirations. Young, Jones and Thompson all arrived at the University of North Texas in 1998, and played music together informally at a friend’s house that first year to recapture the spirit they’d felt in their respective high-school bands. In 1999, Eli enrolled and became quick friends with Young.

  • Charley Jenkins Has Country Roots That Run Deep. He Was Raised on a Farm in Eastern Utah Where He Learned How to Rope, Ride and Work Hard
    "Born country?" Exactly!!! Charley Jenkins has country roots that run deep. He was raised on a farm in Eastern Utah where he learned how to rope, ride and work hard. Life on the Jenkins farm revolved around cows, horses and of course rodeo. Country music is all about a real cowboy’s life like Charley’s. "Country is who and what I am. It is only natural for me to sing the songs that I love and relate to." Charley’s first album, Greatest Hours, was written and produced by Charley with the help of his friend, Jordan Allen. With the success of this album and some personal advice from George Strait, Charley decided to push his career to a new level. In the summer of 2001 Charley loaded up his truck with everything he owned and headed off to Nashville, Tennessee. It didn't take him long to get his foot in the door in the country music industry. Charley was soon working on Music Row for a song writing publishing company. It was here that Charley learned the “ins and outs” of the country business. He became personal friends with a number of Nashville "greats." While in Nashville Charley released his second album titled, Round Here. He wanted this album to show who he is and what his music is all about. The title Round Here was so fitting. Charley is proud of where he is from and the people who have influenced his life. It was this love that brought Charley back home in the summer of 2004 to help with the farm and to be with his family and his father who was battling cancer.
