Jeff Woolsey was raised on traditional country music. He sang on stage for the first time when he was 4 years old. During the 70's and 80's, Jeff performed with his father's band, where he developed his passion for the honkytonk sound. At the age of 19, Jeff formed his own band and carried on the sound of traditional country music. Over the next five years, Jeff polished his voice for the next step in his musical career.
In 1991, Jeff formed the Taste of Texas Band, which quickly made a name for themselves in Houston and throughout Texas . Jeff soon realized that in order to perform in the top dancehalls around, he would have to play the current country hits heard on the radio. He did just that, all the while injecting traditional country music every chance he could. Jeff and his band became widely known for the huge variety of country music that he brought to the stage every where he performed.
Jeff released his first single in 1991, which received airplay in Texas , as well as states along the East Coast. In 1994, Jeff received more recognition when he and his band were named BAND of the YEAR in the Houston area for Coors Lite Texas Music. In 1995, Jeff released his first album, By My Side. The CD featured all original songs and received considerable airplay on Texas radio stations. In 1996, Jeff released Just Take My Heart, a song he co-wrote with Jimmy Calhoun and Billy Spruill . The song was included on a compilation CD which was released by the Houston Music Council, and represented all of the top artists in the Houston area. Also during this time, Jeff had the opportunity to work with some of country's biggest stars, including George Jones, Tim McGraw, Neal McCoy, Toby Keith, and many more.
After years of performing 140 dates a year, Jeff realized that he wanted to get back to his roots of playing traditional country music. Jeff has now started another chapter in his musical career. Jeff, while still bringing his powerful voice to the stage, is back where he belongs. If you enjoy dancing to every song, Jeff Woolsey and the Dancehall Kings will give you no choice but to stay on the dance floor as they play song after song from the likes of Ray Price, Buck Owens, Faron Young, Conway Twitty, plus many original songs that keep the shuffle alive. Jeff is now proud to announce the release of his self-titled CD "Jeff Woolsey & The Dancehall Kings". The CD contains 12 great songs, including some from Buck Owens, Hank Jr, Mel Street, Johnny Paycheck, and Bill Anderson. The CD also contains several original songs.
Jeff hopes that you will join him for a great night of dancehall music that will always keep you coming back for more
