Welcome To Our Brand New Newcastle Steel City Music Club Website!

Below are the words of our club song, we hope you like them and decide to visit us sometime soon… We’re on every Tuesday night from 7.30pm to 10.30pm, so come along for a sing, or just a relax, dinner and to hear some great country music!

We play country music here at our club,
They said our type of music wouldn’t thrive.
The years have passed without our really knowin,
Ah we always knew our music would survive.

Slim was a favorite here with most folk,
We’d sing ’bout the lights or have no beer.
Times have changed since we started our club,
And someone said we wouldn’t last a year.

It seems like a lifetime we’ve been playing,
Telling tales in good old rythmic rhyme.
So come along and join us for a good time,
And we won’t even charge a single dime.

Lots of folks they like different music,
And most of us grew up with rock and roll.
But there’s no denying country music,
A weekly dose is so good for the soul.

It seems like a lifetime we’ve been playing,
Telling tales in good old rythmic rhyme.
So come along and join us for a good time,
And we won’t even charge a single dime.

We sing songs of broken loves and heartache,
Or of drinking far too many bottles down.
It takes you back when we first started,
They said country music finally come to town.

November 25th, 2011

Steel City Country Club Singer Adam Price Launches New Album!

Adam Price - Paint You a Song front CoverAdam Price who is a regular at the Steel City Country Music Club in Speers Point has just produced a brand new album and will be debuting it’s launch on Sunday 27th November, 2011 at the Five Islands Recreation Club at Speers Point (the home of the Steel City Country Music Club).

The songs on the album  are a rare mix of new, old and originals and the list of songs from the back cover are listed below… Where you can see that the popular recording studio Ocean Road Music on the Central Coast recorded and produced the songs (Rod McCormack being the owner and production manager of the studio, Rod is also the husband of Gina Jeffreys).

The Adam Price Song Review List from the Album

Adam Price - "Paint You a Song" listAdam’s two new singles “Under Your Spell” and “Something About You” have already been played on air across a broad range of radio stations and interviews for the new albums promotion have begun.

The song mix is a rather interesting one with a couple of old classics from Smoky Dawson, who Adam really admires. Homestead of My Dreams is one of Smoky’s best known songs and loved everywhere, while “Paint You a Song” is a rarer version of Smoky’s brilliant work (this song was actually a request from Adam’s mother, Daphne who loves country music).

“I’m extremely excited about the up coming launch and really hope that people warm to the new songs as much as the older classics we’ve put on the album” says Adam.

The other key to this album was Mel Sommers, the president of the Steel City Country Music Club and someone who a great many look up to and respect in this industry. Mel has been instrumental in helping many singers launch their careers, among them Snowy Robson, Catherine Britt and a good many others who have passed through the club over the years.

What Does 2012 Look Like For Adam Price…

Adam Price will be promoting his new album over the coming year and has already begun an extensive marketing campaign to secure more live gigs in locations around Newcastle, Upper Hunter Valley, and Central Coast as well as the more country areas which Adam loves to sing.

If you google Adam Price in any search engine over the coming year you will find more resources, songs and ways to connect with him online and in person at the shows he’ll be doing, and he really enjoys connecting with new and existing country music enthusiasts. The Adam Price Live Show is going to be one where he celebrates the songs of many great artists such as Alan Jackson, George Strait, Adam Harvey, Troy Cassar-Daly and many, many more who have brought us years of listening pleasure with their songs.

Adam Price LiveAnd over time Adam will bring new songs to the table of his own which he’s co-written with Mel Sommers, Rod McCormack and songs that other writers have written for him as well, such as Broken Bridges by Maree Stacey which is on his album and a lovely song.

So keep an eye out for Adam Price and his live shows, with a good mix of talented band members he certainly hopes you’ll enjoy his songs and the music the band and backing tracks of the world’s most popular songs.

I’m really looking forward to meeting her and learning from her.

Hope to see you there too.
