Events from December 30, 2022 – May 19, 2023 – the Hold My Beer Band

The Ore House Hilltop Tavern in Oracle Az

Sun, 30 Mar 2025 02:00:00 +0000

We’re always ready to play the Ore House in Oracle on the last Saturday of every month. It’s anyone’s guess as to what the weather may be like this time of year. We may play inside; we may play outside, it’s all up to mother nature herself. With that in mind, dress appropriately and make sure you remember your dancing shoes or boots and head on over to the Ore House. You know you can always order some great pub food at the Ore House including appetizers and meals. Don’t forget to pair it with your favorite draft or bottled beer, cocktail, shot or glass of wine and get ready to enjoy some music!

We hope to see you there!

Ranch House Grill & Brewery

Thu, 03 Apr 2025 23:00:00 +0000

A few times a year we play a “Dance” party for a group of folks at Saddlebrooke at their event venue. In the same building you can find the Ranch House grill where you can find great food, drink and sports. We were told that they have some live music under the gazebo at the event pavilion. We’re excited to play this property outdoors in this amazingly beautiful setting in the desert. What? You have never visited the Ranch House Grill & Brewery at Saddlebrook? It is open to the public so if you’re in the area, check their website to view their days and hours of business.

The Spirit Room, Jerome Az

Sat, 19 Apr 2025 02:00:00 +0000

We’re headed north on our semi-annual road trip to Jerome & Clarkdale Az. We play Friday night at the world-famous Spirit Room in Jerome Az. Friday is typically an 8-10 pm show at the Spirit Room in Jerome. It took us a few appearances, but we informed the young lady that books the entertainment at the Spirit Room that our age group typically doesn’t attend an 8 pm show. Now, I know everyone may not be at the “senior citizen” scheduling moment, but it has been proven that we get a better crowd if we begin earlier!

If you’ve never been to the Spirit Room in Jerome, put it on your bucket list! Better yet, put this date/time on your calendar and make the trek with us to the Spirit Womb!

10-12 Lounge, Clarkdale Az

Sat, 19 Apr 2025 21:00:00 +0000

The 10-12 Lounge is not difficult to find in the historic town of Clarkdale Az. Once you walk into this comfortable lounge, you’ll notice a relaxed atmosphere with a few tv’s for sports and such and a great sound system when there is no interest in sports & stuff. If you visit when they feature music, which is every weekend and more, you will most likely see a crowd of music and dance aficionados. People love their music and really enjoy dancing. It’s our privilege to continue to be booked here for a Saturday afternoon. We hope to see you there!

The Ore House Hilltop Tavern

Sun, 27 Apr 2025 02:00:00 +0000

We always enjoy playing the last Saturday of each and every month at the Ore House. Sometimes we don’t know whether we will be playing inside or outside! No matter, we always seem to find a way to setup and be heard! If you have been to the Ore House, you know that showing up early is always a good strategy, especially in inclement weather! You never know what mother nature is going to throw at Oracle. Order some grub and your favorite cocktail or draft and get ready to do some dancing!

The Firehouse Saloon, Kearney

Sun, 11 May 2025 01:00:00 +0000

It’s time to return to Kearney and play the always fun Firehouse Saloon. If you’ve never visited, it may help to use your GPS or mapping app. That being said, the crowd at the Firehouse really appreciate their music and enjoy dancing and having a good time. It’s the perfect venue for us!

There is a large outdoor area with a covered patio with a pass through for the bartender. Just mosey up and order your cocktail or beer. Heck, maybe a shot! This patio also serves as a stage for the musicians. It’s always great having shade in May in Arizona!

HMBB Weekend Off

Sat, 17 May 2025 07:00:00 +0000

Sometimes a musical act comes to town and one of us, if not more, want to go see a band that we really enjoy listening to as well as playing. Dwight Yokam opening for The Mavericks is one of those concerts that falls into that category. Raul Malo has a beautiful voice, and he has been battling cancer.

To learn more about the Mavericks, visit their website.

Saddlebrooke, Oracle Dance Party

Sat, 07 Jun 2025 01:00:00 +0000

We’re back for our fourth appearance at the beautiful Saddlebrook Ranch outside of Oracle. These folks have dance lessons and practice different country dances to recorded music. They truly enjoy listening to a band perform a variety of different country music styles for their dancing pleasure.

It’s always a fun evening and you know that the fine folks in the audience are really enjoying our style and brand of music. Heck, they’re the reason why we are beginning to get booked at the Ranch House Grill & Brewery, right in the same amazing building. The public is invited to check out their restaurant and cocktails! Just let the lady or gentleman know at the guard gate that you are headed to the Ranch House Grill.

HMBB Weekend OFF!

Sun, 15 Jun 2025 07:00:00 +0000

L-R – Rocky, Ron, Ted & Frank

There are times when we do need to spend some time with our wives, significant others, family & friends. OK, so our wives, significant others, insist that we take a few weekends off and Father’s Day weekend is a great reason to spend some time away from the glitter & spotlights. But seriously, three out of the four of us are at least grandfather’s. Rocky has boys and his Dad is in the band! It’s a family affair as it is.

We hope that everyone can spend time with their Loved ones this Father’s Day. We will see you soon.

Please note that we are still looking for roadies who are willing to work for free. Send us a note!
