Geoff Elvee country singer and songwriter |
As stated in his press release, “Hardships, hard work and heroes have always been key subjects in country music, but in the rugged working hands of Geoff Elvee these topics are eloquently transformed into first rate songs written or co-written by this established country musician.”
A native of St. Peter, Elvee left the farm in his mid 20’s traveling throughout the western states playing with pick-up bands, performing solo shows and working construction sites along the way.
In 1998, he moved back to Minnesota where he eventually co-produced and released his first and second albums, “It’s About Time” and “Big Wheels,” which contained songs he had written.
Elvee has been performing for 20 years both regionally and nationally with a cast of top notch professional musicians. He is currently working on his third album, “Being a Man,” due to be released sometime this year.
He has also been involved with producing and performing veteran military appreciation charity concerts along the way.
Elvee describes himself as being a fan of “more traditional country music,” which means “you can expect to hear country music the way it was meant to be performed…with heart, soul and personality.” His shows include original music, the stories behind the songs; and a Chris Ledoux Tribute upon request.
