So...the band started back in 1972 at a place called Faraway Farms just south of Dubuque, IA. Dwayne Fudge and Bill "Cricket" Davis started the band with a vision to bring great music to Eastern Iowa. There was Fred , Billy Mcguire , then Dave came along in late 1973. Dave left in late 1974 and came back in 1977. After winning the Sundown Country Music Festival, Mark Oberfell and Charlie Troy joined the band, and they went on the road from 77 to 83 , playing a number of concerts with the likes of Hank Williams Jr., John Hartford, and many more. The band was hired in 1981 to appear in the movie "Take This Job and Shove It". The first Mississippi Band album was released in 1981, it was called "Take Your Chances". It was well recieved and the band still continues today. In 2000 the band released their next album, "Mississippi Band 2000". There have been many members of the band thru the years ..... Heres to all the members of the band , past and present .... and the Mississippi Band keeps rollin along ............................................................
