CURRENT SINGLE: “Love Talking”
The members of Eli Young Band met when they were in college, and have been together for over 20 years now. And the one thing that has remained consistent throughout the EYB’s career is that they are a road band, and tour … a lot. Of course, the pandemic kept them off the road for almost two years, and when asked about Eli Young Band’s upcoming tour schedule, and if there are any venues he’s looking forward to playing either again of for the first time, lead singer Mike Eli said, “After taking that much time off, being on the road as long as we have – there were very few times that we would take more than two or three weeks off. And just getting back out on the road was such a treat for us.”
Mike admits that when touring has been your life for over two decades, “For a little while there we took for granted what was so important about that to us personally, the four of us.”
So, looking at the long list of places Eli Young Band will be playing throughout the summer and early fall, Mike says, “I think that we’re really likin’ most venues, especially the ones with people in them.”
