ABOUT

Looking to Join a Band

My name is Bailey Benton, and I was born and raised into a very musical family. My parents were in bands all their lives and played for a band in MO called the Ludlow Band. This band played around some of the greats back in the day like Patty Loveless and Trace Atkins. Growing up, I was immersed in musical talent, every saturday night was a different show or opry. My family began playing at more and more of these local shows and even performed monthly with Rhonda Vincent's parents at Young Country. My parents then created a contemporary christian group as well called abundant grace where I sang as well. I have been singing and playing with them since I was old enough to be taken seriously lol. From 7th grade and on I began singing at my local shows and began playing guitar as well. I performed at State and National FFA Talent in front of 50,000 and on live TV and have been singing and playing at different local events ever since. I am very familiar with playing with and in a band as well as singing backup and keeping a show rolling. I have had tons of experience in this area. Honestly, I love to sing and play. Music is a part of me and always has been. I would love the opportunity to join a group of already skilled performers and just get back to doing what I love most!

most videos were taken about 50lbs ago lol
