Welcome to The Yankee Grey HQ
Well, for anybody who doesn't already know, Yankee Grey is a country music band that is really like no other. Their upbeat songs like "Untamed" are balanced out with great slow songs like "There's Only One." Their newest disk "Untamed" and their singles "All Things Considered," "Another Nine Minutes," and "This Time Around," which are already on Billboard, are the best way to experience this new sound so go check it out.

July 5, 2001 New Music from YG Check out samples of some new songs on www.yankeegrey.com. Wow!! that Lyle can sing. April 14, 2001 Bassist, Dave Buchanan, Takes Hobby to New Level Dave has been taking advantage of some of the band's planned
down time and is learning to pilot small aircraft. "It's always been
a dream of mine to learn to fly," said Dave. "It's been great so far, more
than I ever expected. I can't believe I am finally out there doing
it!" This past weekend, Dave did more than just take an average lesson,
he completed his first solo flight. "It was absolutely incredible,"
he said. "It can be a little nerve wracking at first, but then it
just comes naturally."
April 12, 2001 Wrapping up Western Tour YG just returned home after completing a 3-week tour of California and Nevada. The tour included stints in Victorville, CA. and Las Vegas Nevada. The tour was a big success and even held a few surprises. While on tour with the George Strait Festival in Las Vegas, Lonestar's Richie McDonald and Dean Sams dropped in to catch YG's show at Boulder Station. "We've run into the guys in Lonestar a few times out on the road," said Joe, "and we always have a great time. I'm glad they made the trip out to see us." Also catching the show was rock guitarist, Mark Kendall
of Great White. It seems Mark's wife is a big fan of Yankee Grey
and convinced him to bring the whole family to YG's show in Irvine, CA.
"It was great to meet Mark and his family," said Matt. "Great White
has some really good music, in fact my wife has some of their albums.
So it was cool to meet a fellow guitarist."
Yankee Grey Performs at the Grand Ole Opry YG was asked back for an encore performance at the Grand
Ole Opry, Saturday, March 3rd. While this was the second performance
for most of the guys, it was the first for lead singer, Lyle Gudmunsen.
"What a thrill and an honor," he said. "It was absolutely incredible
to get up there and sing." The band performed their tribute to Dale
Earnhardt, Goodbye My Friend as well as their hit, Another Nine Minutes.
"The crowd loved the Dale Earnhardt song," said Jerry. "It's a song
with real feeling and Dale Earnhardt was so important to so many people."
