***********************************

The Kayla Wass Band is a 5 piece country music band. Twenty-one year old Kayla is the lead singer with a voice compared to Trisha Yearwood and Carrie Underwood. She can sing the heck out of a Sugarland or Gretchen Wilson song or take you back a few years to the Tammy Wynette and Patsy Cline days. She sings from the heart with loads of emotion. She has won several awards including the 2007 Female Vocalist & Entertainer of the Year in Pigeon Forge, TN. Veteran band members and brothers, Kevin Overlock on lead guitar and Buzzy Overlock on bass guitar, lend their superb sibling harmony to help make the band's unique sound. Kevin with his Vince Gill-like voice, and Buzzy's Brooks & Dunn sound, also sing lead. Our newest member, Willie Ross, on rhythm guitar and vocals, and Don Barry on drums, complete our band's one of a kind sound. Willie's voice makes Conway Twitty come alive again, complete with his famous growl! While Don's years of experience on drums keeps the beat going all night long

The Kayla Wass Band brings you the sounds of today's country hits and timeless country classics! If you're looking for Nashville quality right here in Maine, look no further! Call us today and book us for your event!
